There's no need to bring your rollerblades if you want to travel to Barbieland and feel your Barbie fantasy, just head to lower Manhattan.
The Malibu Barbie Cafe: New York City at 19 Fulton Street has been welcoming Barbie fans since May. It was supposed to end in September, but thanks to the Barbie fever the newly released Greta Gerwig film has generated, the eatery will now open through Oct. 13, according to the Bucket Listers.
So, what can you expect?
The café is designed to transport guests to 1970s Malibu, California, complete with a Barbie-esque color scheme, beach motifs and retro décor. There will be immersive spaces and photo ops inspired the icon herself, Malibu Barbie. There's even a life-size Barbie Box to show off your best pose in an Instagramable-worthy photo.
