I love going to coffee shops to get work done, and I like that Stacks has a 2nd where they encourage people to sit if they're going to be using a computer. However, it's FREEZING upstairs. I think if I'm paying 6 dollars for a cofffee, a little bit more money could be allocated to heating the 2nd floor, fixing the windows, or whatever else would need to be done to make this space a comfortable place to work.

Vibes are immaculate. I would definitely come here again to hang out with friends.

I want to give them 5 stars, and they can be. The lack of consistency in barista skills and food quality varies wildly. I feel quality of service im general today depends on a persons mood, its a problem.

I was hoping to get a feel for the downtown location—but parking is a major challenge.
I've visited Lark location twice.
First visit, I tried a BLT on a croissant. Honestly, it wasn’t great. The combo of salty bacon, mayo, and croissant just didn’t balance well, and there weren’t any other sauce options like chipotle to cut the saltiness. I don’t blame them too much for the flavor, but it wasn’t a hit.
Second time, I ordered a single-cinnamon bagel with cream cheese. The bagel itself was fine, but there wasn’t enough cream cheese—definitely needed more spread for a satisfying bite.
Coffee, though? Always solid. They do that part really well.
One big letdown was the menu. When you walk in, there’s this large menu board that gets you excited for things like French toast—but that’s only available on weekends. During the week, the options are much more limited: mostly bacon, egg & cheese or open-faced sandwiches. I was disappointed to find out there’s no hash browns, no French toast, nothing hot and hearty during the weekday breakfast hours.
Lastly, the back hallway near the restrooms still smells like a bathroom—like they never fully updated the space after taking over from Café Hollywood. It's not a deal breaker, but it definitely takes away from the experience.
Great coffee, decent concept, but a few misses that need some attention.

Found this cafe on our way through NY. It looked cute and promising, but it wasn’t. Paid $27 for a Lottie (yogurt bowl) which was all topping and no yogurt total rip off. Was also given a broken spoon to eat it with. Subpar breakfast sandwhich (the Greg) that tasted like a pre-made sandwhich from star bucks. I would not recommend unless all you want is a latte. I got an iced lavender honey latte which was the only redeeming factor.

Beautiful coffee shop - chill with great light, lots of places to sit and good art.
The coffee isn't great, but the worst issue was the two stale croissants we got. Those should be thrown out at the end of the day, not recycled for the following morning.

Truly amazing and delicious coffee Staff are wonderful, competent and excel in the art of customer service. Emeline, in particular was our server, she went above and beyond, making us welcome, a star ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As a nurse myself, I appreciate how difficult it is presenting to the public in a positive manner regardless of our own hurdles. keep being you Emeline, the world needs more loving and caring people like you. Keep up the good work.

This is such a great coffee shop! The cold brew is top notch and the service is always its best despite being so busy. Emeline is SUCH a sweetheart. She’s always going above and beyond to make sure I’m happy with my order. Everyone who works there works hard and deserves the very best!
