Curb Your Enthusiasm: Latte Larry's
summary

Bringing Larry David and Curb's Spite Store to Life with Menotti's Coffee Stop

SITUATION

Fan Demand for Latte Larry’s Sparks Ultimate CYE Experience

Since Latte Larry’s debuted in Season 10 of Curb Your Enthusiasm, fans have been eager for a real-life version. Four years later, HBO and The Syn fulfilled this dream, celebrating the show and its creator, Larry David, with an authentic, hilarious multi-day event.

SOLUTION

Transforming Menotti's into Latte Larry's for Fans

HBO and The Syn brought this to life by partnering with Menotti's Coffee Stop in LA, transforming their Venice Beach and Culver City locations into Latte Larry's. Fans enjoyed Larry's “Hot Cups of Spite” and “Dry Scones” amid neurotic details like coat racks, Purell at every table, “defecation free store” signs, and no wobbly tables.
