“Food is excellent, service is good and polite, atmosphere is gentle peaceful and clean. I highly recommend here, especially parties for 10-50 ppl.“

“Great place to chill� and enjoy the lovely autumn weather this time of the year! Love This place“

“I was traveling for my studies, and it was incredible for the time I spent here. Our bartender was Frank, a great person. I won't forget him. This place is perfect for disconnecting and getting a good meal. Without a doubt, I'll be back on my next trip.“

“This cafe is so lovely. I had the pleasure of Desi and Aida assisting me with my order. They made the most delicious soy chai with amazing foam. Their desserts were amazing as well. It was refreshing to be greeted with such positive and friendly energy in New York. I can't wait to come back when I am in the area. Make sure to come to this cafe if you want a lovely experience and great food and drinks!“

“Great coffee, great pastries, great man. Sam is the nicest man there is. He invited me to come eat in his own home. His wife's homemade pastries are the best!“

“Vale’s Kafe & Kitchen is a hidden gem in Union City. The atmosphere is cozy and charming, like you’re visiting a friend. The service is professional and attentive. The food … oh so good! Clean and flavorful. The portions are just right, not outrageous. The coffee is also very good. The only setback I see is the entrance is not
accessible. I would suggest a ramp for those customers that have difficulty walking up/down steps. Also hours could be extended, say to include dinner on the weekend (Fri/Sat). Otherwise a must see.“

“The vibe here is so cozy warm and friendly, but it's not the best for settling in and getting work done due to their 90 min policy.

The cafe is spacious and the drinks and pastries are delicious. I wanted to try the famous pistachio croissant but they were out at 2pm! So I got the pistachio muffin on my guy's rec. It's filled with pistachio butter. So delicious, pistachio lover's dream. Their hot chocolate is really rich and chocolatey too, not watery at all.

As for service, the reviews about wanting to be the baristas' best friend are accurate, they are very kind and caring people. The guy who took my order thoughtfully toasted my muffin without me even asking!“

“We're heading to a show at Rose Theater and wanted a quick bite and a glass of wine. Tartinery was perfect! They seated us in a reasonable time, no reservation needed and the food was delicious. The wait staff was attentive and friendly. The wine French and yummy. Highly recommend!“

“Really happy to find that place! Great real coffee and very friendly staff.“

“Amazing food and the service was great and attentive! Had a cappuccino with oat milk and a breakfast plate with avocado toast and French toast to share. Very flavorful meal and the espresso was amazing.

I also really loved how they decorated the place with a variety of portraits and positive affirmations around the cafe!

Will definitely visit again next time with friends and family to try out more food options and drinks! :)“

“Wonderful, caring staff(Grand Central Station)“

“I read their amazing reviews, I had to add me 2 cents. Definitely try their French toast. Brings back my memories of being a kid, and filling as f...... Great for breakfast, lunch or dinner!!!“

“If I could come back for every meal I would. From the hostess and host to the servers and food everything was beyond incredible.

Order the tasting menu. You’ll love every bit of it. The little details were incredible and every single member of their team went above and beyond. Will definitely be back as often as possible.“

“Awesome design! Friendly atmosphere! BUREKASIM!“

“We were seated in the back at some corner which was pretty uncomfortable to me as I felt claustrophobic there. There was an available table in the front. I asked to be seated there but they couldn’t because “it’s a table for three” and it was two of us. Interestingly, they could seat one person at the table for two and they could seat three persons at the table for four.“

“I've been to a lot of coffee shops in my life, and this is my favorite. The coffee is good, the service is super fast, and the employees are genuinely nice people.

But what really makes this place special is that it actually feels like a local community spot. There currently are only three people I've ever seen working behind the counter, and it was special to watch them expand from their tiny shop to a larger location.

So many coffee shops feel soulless, but this place is different...You can really tell they care about what they've built here. The design seems so thoughtful – there are these cute cartoon animals on the walls, and Tenz told me they put them there specifically so babies in strollers have something to look at while their parents wait in line. I feel lucky to live near a shop that so much care has been put into!“

“I absolutely loved this place!! I gifted a box of mini croffles to my friend to share with others and she said they tasted amazing. Perfect for my friend’s sweet tooth. I also ordered the injeolmi croffle for myself and this place might be my new fav cafe in New Jersey!!“

“Love Healthy in Dyckman. It’s a gem in the Kingsbridge area where it’s possible to find good quality, healthy food. I particularly love their healthy egg wrap and chai latte. The staff is very sweet, and the place clean. The food is on the pricier side compared to the area, but it does justice to the quality. Highly recommended!“

“I tried the Reuben and the strawberry rose iced matcha. The sandwich was fire, steaming hot and served within minutes, perfect ratio of meat to bread, and the bread itself was fresh and delicious. I could’ve used more sauerkraut but that’s a personal preference.“

“Had a book club meet up with my friends and we definitely enjoyed ourselves. The music was nice but not too loud. The drinks were great, I ordered the milo latter with coffee and was delicious. I want to go back to try the coquito latte! I also had a arepa de yuca with cheese on top it was so good! The staff is awesome! Definitely coming back!“

“Excellent coffee and best cookies in the city! Baristas know what they’re doing, service is quick, and single origin specialty coffee is a bonus!“

“Great coffee and baristas, but the screen free zone downstairs during the day is unnecessary when completely empty on most days. Do a time limit if you're concerned about turnover/dining or minimum spend. Would be great to have Turkish coffee back or a pour over option as well.“

“Very glad we found this place. Nice ambiance and delicious food“

“This restaurant was amazing! The person working there was very kind and answered my questions in a way I understood. I got my latte. It was made in a quick fashion. There were nice, clean tables to sit in to enjoy my latte. I highly recommend this location“

“Beautiful array of pastries“

“Daily Provisions consistently serves the best sandwiches in the city. This location, near the museum, is my go to after a run. The chicken Milanese dipped in their tomato soup is my favorite (the olive oil makes the difference), paired with a side of fried potatoes.

If you want something simpler, their tuna melt is pretty decent, though the majority of customers (7 out of 10) opt for the chicken Milanese.

The wait is minimal, ample seating, and this location is noticeably more spacious (and less stuffy) than their Union Square outpost.“

“We are visiting from Miami and stumbled upon this hidden gem. We ordered blueberry pancakes , 2 egg platers and a breakfast sandwich and everything was a 10/10. I got myself a mushroom coffee which was interesting , very good as well. The place is small and homey. The staff was very kind and welcoming. They have a variety of options on the menu & they even have vegan protein powder to make shakes. The hash browns and eggs were delicious and were not greasy at all. Fast service . If you are looking for some good breakfast or quick sandwich / wrap / smoothies check them out .“

“Cafe Piecebook truly feels like a second home to me. It's my go-to spot for a daily pick-me-up. Their white mocha is my favorite when I want something warm and cozy, and the iced caramel latte is perfect when I'm craving something refreshing. The cookies n cream cookie is absolutely delicious, and their seasonal drinks never disappoint, especially the teddy graham latte.
The owner, Seoul, is amazing and genuinely treats you like family. The rest of the staff are just as wonderful, always patient and welcoming. On top of that, the interior is very unique and edgy with a cool aesthetic that makes you want to stay awhile. The great reviews are well deserved. If you're in the neighborhood, it's definitely worth stopping by.✨☕️“

“My favorite spot to work & eat in Jersey City Heights.“

“Wow. It's hard for me to articulate how much I loved it. Incredible warmth, coffee, service, and crepes all packed into this absolute gem. You feel like family the moment you walk in! Every time I'm in town, I'll stop by here - I promise it!“

“My fiancée and I come here probably 2-3 times a month for a casual weekend coffee.

I can’t believe that this spot only has 200 five star reviews.

It’s easily the best combo of ambiance, food and coffee in midtown without a doubt and it’s reasonably priced too.

It’s also one of the few coffee shops that actually has seating where you can relax and hear yourself think.

I’m honestly a little worried that this place will show up on influencers’ radar and my favorite local spot will be overrun“

“Convenient life, beautiful night scene.“

“I <3 Blank Slate! My NYC office is down one block but even if it weren't, I would go out of the way to get here! I only come to the city once every couple of months and they always remember me! Way to make someone feel welcome in the city!“

“I’ve been coming to this coffee shop for over two years now, and there’s truly nothing else like it in the neighborhood. The quality of their coffee is consistently excellent, and you can tell they take pride in what they serve. Rodrigo makes my caramel mocha latte every morning — it’s the perfect way to start my day!

The atmosphere is always warm and inviting. I often bring my laptop to get some work done; the Wi-Fi is reliable, the music is always on point, and the vibe is just right for focusing or relaxing.

Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for great coffee, friendly service, clean and a welcoming environment.“

“Well what started out as "oh let's try this place" as we hunted for a new brunch spot has quickly become a fam and friends fav. This eatery is a hidden gem in the mount Haven section of the BX...who knew!? Love the rustic casual ,chill vibe & the rooftop seating on a summer day is everything. The food... fresh uncomplicated, there are halal vegan& vegetarian options. The chocolate croissant and vegan carrot cake 🥰 My personal favorite is avocado toast with turkey bacon , arugula or the goddess bowl add a great cup of coffee or Chai latte it's all delish!! To the staff are friendly and helpful. We love this eatery so much we just had my friend's son's wedding there, intimate, beautiful. A must try.“

“Such a pretty place. I felt so welcome here ☺️ the dessert display so yummy. The desserts are delicious. Owner very nice 👌 👍 I would definitely come back. Such a tranquil and serene atmosphere. Parking is very accessible. A hidden gem so worth your trip. Everyone must try this great little cafe.“

“I highly recommend this restaurant! The food is amazing! You must try the buffalo wings if you love your dishes with a spicy kick and the buffalo cauliflower bites that simply melt in your mouth! The Chef's V Steak is a rich and flavorful you should try it. The service is wonderful and the ambiance is very trendy.“

“We love this cafe. Coffee is amazing. Recommend the egg sandwiches, scones and heavenly croissants. You will not be disappointed ❤️“

“best coffee shop in Manhattan 😊“

“We passed by this popular store front with lots of people enjoying their treats and decided to get one ourselves.
The waiting line for the kiosk was longer than the delivery of the ice cream itself. The ice cream was fairly creamy and cold. The cone was crunchy as desired.
Matcha taste was a tad bit strong, but good for acquired taste.“

“This is such a great little spot in NYC! We went for breakfast and when we arrived the owner opened the door for us and welcomed us in. We had to wait a moment till they had a table for us, so they gave us menus to look at in the meantime. The food was delicious and very filling. There were quite a number of staff on hand, so we had wonderful service. They were very quick to refill our water and respond to any needs. I would definitely go here again!“

“I would rather swallow poison than anyone else's cappuccino. Best coffee, vibe of any cafe in Westchester. Staff is super cool and I love the music they play. I am not cool but I feel cool when I'm in there.“

“Awesome hospitality! Perfect tiramisu croissant (less weet), and hot coffees. Graciously made a tiramisu hot coffee when we accidentally ordered a cold brew version. And the barista explained the drip coffee process nicely! Will go again, thank you.“

“Io e mia figlia siamo state una settimana a New York e questa è stata la nostra caffetteria per tutta la settimana. Cappuccino ottimo, per non parlare dei dolci, e le focacce baresi 😍😍😍... Lasagna tradizionale buonissima 😉presa 3 volte. Il top qui a New York. Lo consiglio.“

“I'm loving the new growth of my hometown Jersey City. So many businesses opening up and I'm loving it. Congrats to all the business owners and future business owners. 🙏❤️🙏 I can't wait to come back to visit.“

“Great service, delicious iced coffee and matcha latte!“
