50 Best Coffee Shops near Belle Harbor

“Visited Williamsburg, Brooklyn and stayed in Manhattan.

Great facility, safety, amenity, food & drinks,, and amicable treatment - especially given the understandable hustle and bustle of New York. As a Southern hospitality assimilator for 29 years, it's refreshing to be amongst my downtown urban lifestyle in the South being literally everywhere up here.

Visit here!“

“Absolutely the best coffee shop ever! Super clean, very fast service; even when there's a big line it will take less than 5 minutes to get your latte! Plus they have great pastries and even in times of inflation, their prices have stayed reasonable. Excellent AC in summer - a great place to sip an iced latte and cool off.“

“one of my go-to cafe spots in the neighborhood! great coffee & service. they also make their own pastries, but i have yet to try that.

this cafe is more of a place you go to pick up your coffee and leave or stay for a short period of time. it’s not somewhere i’d go for a coffee date or read/study/work. i usually go here when i want to drink my coffee at home or somewhere else!“

“great place for breakfast . The coffee was great, i also had Avocado Toast with an Egg. Clean restaurant. huge outside deck.“

“My absolute favorite cafe! Not only are the staff and owners absolutely lovely, the whole atmosphere is welcoming. The chorizo breakfast burrito is out of this world, and I also love the vegan banana muffin. The iced latte is great and the matcha is my favorite in Williamsburg. I come here multiple times a week and always pick it over another cafe :)“

“I recently lost my mom and I needed a smoothie to feel better. Cynthia really made me feel a lot better and introduced me to express yo self and sorrel and that changed my mood for the better that day. Super caring and nice, I’m definitely coming back to treat myself!“

“Charming cafe with light fare—but the main thing is that the coffee here is incredible. You can get a pourover (sometimes a 15 minute wait) and there are usually two espresso options—both always fantastic. You can rely on this place for superbly delicious coffee no matter how you like it. They also have a fantastic selection of retail coffee from national and international roasters.“

“The staff, particularly Wendy, couldn’t be more lovely. Wendy tends to my 2 year old grandson which such sweetness! Above and beyond great service. ❤️“

“Saw this place on TikTok and said I would stop buy and support my people. I ordered an Iced Coquito Latte and a bear. I am glad this is near my job. The coquito is delicious and the bear was a little delicious cake that was just the right size. This is going to be one of my regular spots. I swear if they get questios it will hurt my diet.

Dietary restrictions: Vegetarian/vegan options available

Kid-friendliness: Get them a bear pastry, they will love it.“

“The cutest coffee shop in park slope with adorable antiques. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, they really make you feel at home. The food is also great, my favorites are the ham and cheese croissant and the classic chocolate chip cookie is probably the best I ever had. Also the Nutella babka is to die for if you’re craving something sweet. Their coffee is strong and brewed to perfection always.“

“Food was very tasty!! I ate the bulgogi Banh mi & the eggcellent banh mi, the one that stole the show was definitely the bulgogi Banh mi it was very flavor full and had tons of meat!! I also got the Vet. Ice coffee & Thai milk tea which was pretty solid but nothing to go crazy about. I will definitely be coming back for the bulgogi Banh mi!!!“

“Literally the best coffee I've had in Brooklyn, I'm not joking. The iced cortado blew my mind. The only problem is that now I'm addicted, haha. Super friendly also and the owner is a really cool guy who makes awesome art that's hanging in the cafe. Highly recommend.“

“We found you on our trip to Brooklyn in March and we are still dreaming about the amazing turmeric oatmeal breakfast - so great that we walked over the Brooklyn Bridge the following day for another portion! Great service, great staff, we will be back and we will be telling all our friends to come too!“

“- The cafe is located right in front of the Brookyln Bridge, making it perfect to grab a coffee to go and stroll along the riverside park.- The cafe was quite crowded, and I had to wait about 20 minutes.- It was nice to have a bathroom available.- The coffee was delicious“

“The mini chirashi with rice is the biggest under-$10 helping of FRESH sushi you will find for miles. Coffee and tea here are also top-notch, as are the affordable baked goods. A gift. Hard to find grab-and-go bakeries this good in the States.“

“Delicious foods and drinks. Great service and nice area .“

“Compass Cafe is a cozy little coffee shop. The food and coffees are tasty. Only draw back is they don't open at 8 as published. Call ahead to see if they're open.“

“Great service, food and vibes! I came here to do some work and saw a no laptop sign on the tables since it was Saturday evening (such a fun time lol) but luckily laptops were allowed in the back room which was perfect for me!I love the combination of cafe and bar. It seems like a great place to do work, read a book, or hang out with friends.They also have events that sound fun.Got the coconut bun and matcha latte, both were superb:)

Vegetarian options: Most items are vegetarian.

Dietary restrictions: They have milk alternatives, but I think most of the pastries have dairy/egg“

“DELICIOUS food for any breakfast or lunch! Incredible breakfast sandwiches, great burritos, great bagels, wonderful pastries, and more! We've been getting food and coffee from here every Saturday for almost 4 years and we've NEVER gotten tired of it! A MUST in the area!

Vegetarian options: Large vegetarian section!

Parking: Free street parking, but it's Brooklyn so quite hard to find.“

“Best place to start your day❤️“

“Good service and fast and delicious!“

“It’s honestly the best coffee I’ve ever had…At the shop or at home…Fantastic.“

“This is my favorite pit stop for boba/caffeine, my favorite cafe for laptop work, and my favorite 3rd space for just getting out of the house. Grab a tofu banh mi, milk tea, and that wingback chair by the window. If you're at all like me, you'll get a lot of work done. I'm moving out of New York today, and I'll miss this little shop more than any other business in the city. Can't recommend it enough.

P.S. I think their black milk tea might have a little coffee in it? I can't find anything that tastes quite like it anywhere else, and I really enjoy it.“

“come here for an extraordinary breakfast.
most breakfast spots around NYC serve very similar things: some omelette, some pancake, a greasy plate of food. the menu here is unlike any I have ever seen- a mix of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern flavors - something Californian, something Midwestern, something New York, this place boasts a variety of everything, and the foood is beautifully plated and delicious. I recommend ordering the chicken liver appetizer and lingering over your pistachio latte. They also were nice enough to try and cater to my hubby’s dietary needs which I thought was incredibly sweet. I would say this is a great breakfast spot for those who prefer a savory breakfast as the menu has just a handful of sweet options. Come hungry- leave happy ?“

“Principles is not just a coffee shop but a community center. Tons of great events. Super knowledgeable baristas. They pair staff a living wage - well above minimum - and even offer pay what you can prices. Highly recommend.“

“Sky Coffee Shop is a gem! The staff is always warm and welcoming, making every visit a delight. I can't get enough of their Nutella latte, smoothie “monkey business”, grill cheese sandwiches and their sesame salmon bagel is a must-try. A perfect spot for a tasty pick-me-up ☕ ?“

“Nice little neighborhood coffee/ wine cafe',, they have some seating outside, a variety of pastries, friendly staff“

“Textbook Cafe is a delightful lil gem in the neighborhood. If you’re looking for food, the merguez sandwich was pretty divine. The bread was fresh and crusty, there’s lots of eggs and melted cheese, and the sausage and hot sauce just brought everything together.“

“I wanted some custom cookies for a work event so I came to Chef Benny with my ideas. When I came to pick up my order I was taken aback by the stores artistic atmosphere. This shop is definitely a vibe but more importantly, they were able to bring my idea to life, creating edible art on a quick timetable!“

“I’ve gone several times to their terrace and I can’t get enough of it!! Obsessed with the avo toast, yogurt bowl fuull of berries and omg the pasteries! Also and more important the people working there are so nice that I’d go only to say “

“Cypress Inn is cozy and welcoming, and the food is amazing, personally I enjoy getting the bacon egg and cheese on a bagel. Their coffee is amazing and I love to stop by every morning before work. They make you feel right at home and really makes you appreciate a good atmosphere. I love Cypress Inn!“

“The best iced chai, the crepes were amazing and all gluten-free, tons of options both sweet and savory, and the best service. Limited seating though.

Dietary restrictions: 100% gluten free crepes! Lots of dairy free milk options too“

“I found a great coffee spot recently that really impressed me. It's cozy inside with nice lighting and comfy seats, perfect for chilling out or getting some work done.

Their coffee options are awesome. They have different kinds of coffee beans and make really good cappuccinos. The one I had was just right—smooth and creamy with a nice foam on top.

The service was top-notch too. The staff were super friendly and knew a lot about coffee. They were happy to suggest drinks and chat with customers.

Overall, this place is now one of my go-to spots. Whether you're a coffee lover or just want a cool place to hang out, you should definitely check it out.“

“The atmosphere was veryyyy nice and pretty. Definitely recommend to getting some work or studying done while looking out through the window at park across the street. Their open mics are must if you happen to stay a bit late after wrapping up your work/study.“

“One of my absolute favorite coffee shops! Not only is the coffee delicious and the cafe super cute with plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, but also the food they sell is absolutely delicious! Their sandwiches are SO GOOD. Pro tip- add truffle honey to the sandwich :) very kind employees as well! Couldn’t recommend more :)“

“Drip Coffee Makers is a hidden gem right outside the subway! The coffee is excellent, with a variety of milk options to choose from. Their bites, like matcha bread and banana bread, pair perfectly with your coffee. A must-visit spot for a quick and delicious pick-me-up! Their merchandise is also super cool!

“One of the best coffee spots I have been to. The coffee is organic and made with care. Came here for the first time and the atmosphere is authentic and welcoming. Coupled with great music, the coffee bar turns into an organic bar where we were able to sip on amazing espresso martinis. 10/10 recommend. Good for casual drinks and doing some work. The owner himself is an absolute gem!!!!!

“Really great. Come hungry, leave happy.“

“Farm To People is the hidden gem of the neighborhood, with a cozy and welcoming vibe and always some new creative item on the menu, each meal I've had there has been fantastic.

I love that this creativity from the menu meshes with their produce box business, so that ingredients are local, seasonal and thoughtfully sourced, because I like feeling good about eating all the yummy things.

Above all, I love the people at farm to people, some of the nicest folks. In a city where you can get any type of food you'd like, it's extra special to find a spot where you can enjoy a delicious meal while being made to feel at home. Special shout out to Alec in particular!“

“LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PLACE!!
