“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!“

“My friend Cristina, who had been raving about this place for a long time, treated us to my husband’s birthday brunch here, and she was not wrong. What a gem! The service was outstanding, the food was delicious, and the place was very clean with a nice atmosphere. It’s also BYOB, which makes it even better. Such a great addition to the community. Highly recommend and can’t wait to come back with my family!“

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

“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.“

“Wonderful, caring staff(Grand Central Station)“

“Awesome design! Friendly atmosphere! BUREKASIM!“

“We fancied a light brunch on our way up to the Broadway theatre for a matinee show of The Buena Vista Social Club and as we had enjoyed our brunch at the Tartinery café & bar in Greenwich Village last week, we decided to try their branch on Park Ave.
The café was very busy with a lot of office workers having lunch, however, we were shown to a small table for two without having to wait. The menu at this branch was very silmilar to the one at Greenwich Village, however, they didn't have the eggs benedict my wife really enjoyed there, so she had the avocado on toast with the additional of a soft poached eggs today, which she really enjoyed, and a latte. I went for the lunch combo deal of a delicious creamy chestnut & mushroom soup with a fantastic chicken salad petite tartine with celery & pistachio. We also ordered a very tasty ham & cheese croissant to share whilst we waited for our main courses.
We were served by a very friendly and helpful waitress and used the male & female toilets at the back of the café. There's also a takeaway counter near the entrance selling pastries & hot drinks to go.“

“Tenz is one of the best parts about living in this neighborhood! Been a regular for a few years now. They are fast, friendly, and the drinks and pastries are so on point. I’m also a big matcha person and this is one of the best I’ve had in the city—super strong and super green. Tenz has 5 stars for a reason 💗“

“Thick cut bacon, egg and cheese on a poppy roll with a yolk that bursts on the first bite. The perfect pick me up on a rainy nyc day. Iced latte pairs well with the crullers. Great to sit and catch up with friends over some daily provisions“

“support the bzrrio by supporting the local businesses and not the Stsrbuck types“

“Excellent croffles and drinks! Caffe AND is a great place for a quick treat; service is fast, efficient, and friendly. The staff have always been welcoming, and the croffles come out warm with the perfect texture. I especially like the blueberry croffles, and I hope to try tiramisu next. The ambience of the restaurant is nice, but seating is pretty limited.“

“I Love the Glorious Juice! So refreshing and good for me!!“

“Cute well decorated shop with seating, plants, and cold vegan food. Wish they had outlets for laptops or fresh hot food. Looks like they have liquor but they’re closed after 3pm and on weekends so that doesn’t really make sense?. Tried a horchata latte and it was very sour and difficult to drink. Man happily fixed and changed it for me. Second drink still bad.. Would not eat here again but would come back for a casual daytime date just because of the cozy ambience & Great service.“

“Wonderful place, delicious food and great atmosphere“

“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!“

“Popped in for a quick latte while waiting for a friend — ended up chilling way longer than planned. Cozy downstairs, peaceful backyard, and super fresh coffee. Baha, the barista, was incredibly kind and made the whole place feel extra welcoming. A total gem in the Upper East Side. Saved and starred!“

“Beautiful array of pastries“

“Albert’s’s has been a go to favorite for many years and Albert is an excellent host. The food never disappoints and the service is always great. I recommend Albert’s HoHokus whole heartedly.“

“Looooved the atmosphere at this cute Puerto Rican owned cafe. The coquito latte?! AMAZING. My friend got the avocado toast and I got the breakfast sandwich on Mexican bread. 9/10! The only downfall was that people were comfortably seated and no one was really policing the tables, but my friend and I finally got a seat and were able to enjoy the experience a little better.“

“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!“

“Great place to go for your produce goods.. this place had great customer service. They was very helpful. The store was super clean. Had such a fresh smell. Had some really good smoothies definitely have to try it out . Hands down great place to go.“

“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“

“I love Cafe sparrow! The minute I walked in the barista was very welcoming and super helpful. She offered many drink recommendations as I was indecisive. I settled with a strawberry matcha 🍵 which was so good and a nice warm toasted bagel with cream cheese. Overall I enjoyed my experience here, definitely recommend if you’re looking for good customer service and a nice quiet spot to sit and relax.“

“Convenient life, beautiful night scene.“

“Mochi Mochi Cafe is an amazing place to go, and as a regular, I am in love. It is very family friendly and the owners are amazingly kind. The food is great and at a good price. It has a ton of options for everyone and I would 100% recommend!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Great Food and ambience. Drinks are great but I love more beer options. This place is a hidden gem for coffee.“

“Perfect cappuccino. A must stop to satiate the craving.“

“Pleasantly surprised coming across this place randomly looking up places nearby to quickly eat. The food was flavorful, fresh, and the coffee and drinks were solid. Wonderful place to catch up or do some reading depending on the time of day. I will be returning for sure and the staff were incredibly attentive and kind. It was nice to not feel rushed either. I could have kept eating all day!“

“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.“

“Located in Tangram mall, this Matcha Cafe Maiko location is a great stop for a sweet treat. They have a couple kiosks where you can order at, and service is relatively quick considering how popular it can get.

They have a variety of matcha and other Asian drinks and cold desserts. Every month, they also have specialty flavors. When I went, I got their matcha and lychee parfait while my friend got their matcha soft serve. The parfait had so many different kinds of toppings and the portion was generous. Love their soft serve and I will definitely be coming back. (Their quality is also pretty consistent across locations!)“

“We celebrated an anniversary with Dinner South Bronx at Nourish last week, and the experience was flawless. The service was impeccable, and the steak was cooked to perfection. The dining room has a chic, cozy ambiance, making it a wonderful place for a date night or a special occasion. We are already planning our next visit for another fantastic meal.“

“I visited on a Wednesday morning with 2 other people and we were quickly seated and waited on. The breakfast sandwich was delicious and the iced mocha was unmatched (a perfect combination of cocoa and sweetness). I’m still dreaming about the quality of food and will be back if I’m in the area!“

“Since I planned to be in the area for a few hours, I looked online for a decent place to have lunch nearby. I wanted healthy & tasty food and found that based on positive reviews, I decided to give Claire's Kitchen a try.

Well let me tell you, the atmosphere was cute & had a chill & boho vibe. It's small with limited seating. The time of day was around lunchtime so the majority of customers had their orders to go. A couple of them ordered their favorites which was a sign that Claire's Kitchen has repeat customers.

I had the beef empanadas with a side salad and a chocolate chip scone for dessert. The empanadas were not deep fried so their crust was nice & soft; something that I wasn't used to in an empanada. The beef filling was seasoned nicely- the spices gave it a nice kick to it.

The green salad was very fresh and organic. It included mixed greens, cherry tomatoes and red onion .

Last but not least I must say the chocolate chip scone was divine! It did not need butter. I ate it as if it was like a big ole chocolate chip cookie-the whole thing in one sitting! In the past I found the texture scones to be dry and boring. Not this one! It was really good and fun to eat. I would definitely buy this again. This was a great substitute for the gluten-free chocolate cake that she ran out of :/

So when you are in the mood for tasty and healthy food and you happen to be in the neighborhood ,stop by Claire's Kitchen and treat yourself to a meal made with love.“

“A nice cozy place to relax and enjoy breakfast or lunch!“

“The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable. My juice was amazing and I topped it off with a veggie patty. I will definitely be back!“

“We are new to the neighborhood and this already ranks as a regular spot. The paninis were perfectly warm, crispy, flavorful. The lattes were hot and customized to our preferences. The service was kind and upbeat. Will have to come back for breakfast!“

“Delish coffee, pastries and service“

“The egg toasts were delectable! Actually so happy my sister and I chose to come by. It has a tiny kick of spice which was a pleasant surprise. My sister got the vanilla flat white coffee and she loved it and finished it so quickly. The only thing I wasn't over the
moon for was the corndog. I got the mozarella hot dog corn dog and it was okay. I wouldn't get it again.

The space is small but offers some seating indoors and outdoors. I will definitely try to come again for the egg toast specifically.“

“Stupid, d*** delicious. Will be back every chance possible. Well worth it.“
