Nope, it is fictional. "It is based on Cholmondeley's, a coffee shop and lounge in Usen Castle at Brandeis University, the alma mater of the show's creators." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Perk

Nope it's a created set, but the apartment building (from the outside) is actually a real apartment building in NYC but the interiors are the sets made in LA.

There is a Central Perk in Newark, Delaware. Different logo and such . . . but same name. I don't know if it is older than the show or been franchised, not sure.
