Visited on a Saturday night recently, and could not have been more disappointed. Wife and I ordered two large coffees. Both were cold. As I was paying, my wife had taken a sip and alerted the barista, who asked me if I had taken a sip yet. Because my wife had and I hadn't, she brewed my wife a fresh cup but used the milk steamer to warm mine. I'm sorry. If you're serving coffee that so old it's gotten cold, brew a fresh pot. You're a coffee shop! They offer very little in sweet treats to enjoy with coffee but my wife chose a blondie and I a brownie. The brownie was quite a bit older than the coffee. We will not be going back. Especially when you consider that there's a much nicer coffee spot across the street.

Busy coffee shop and good coffee. Wish they could use the place next door's outdoor seating in the morning. What a waste... anyway, we sat in the back so we could hear each other and enjoyed the morning.

Horrible coffee. Would not recommend this place. The place is very dirty and the staff is very rude. Very disappointed.

If I could leave 0 stars I would. I don't know where to begin. I ordered a simple hot coffee and waited 15-20min. Not only having to wait but the coffee must’ve been sitting there for over 5 days for the poor taste.

One of my favorite coffee places in Bronxville! Always a friendly staff and the coffee is amazing. Fun flavor options and tons of different combinations. The line can get long and can take a while during busy times but overall worth the wait.

Great coffee, super friendly and helpful service, and really pleasant atmosphere. Transported me back to my college days when chill coffee shops were first becoming a thing.

Loved that this place is a great place to work from if you find an open table. Also the barista who took my order was very kind and good at explaining my order since it was my first time, despite the long line. Def would come back.

Honestly a very cozy atmosphere and quite a hype feeling for a cafe in such a small town. It felt like being in a trendy cafe in Brooklyn. And yet, quiet enough to work.

Blue berry muffins and their oat milk were great.

I’d give this cafe a zero if I could. Walked in staff not informative and semi rude didn’t want to answer any questions. I’m from Chicago so I was new to the cafe and my question was pretty simple but too much for the staff. Tried ordering a latte but after struggling to order because they were out of a couple of syrups I wanted I finally was able to but he came back yet again saying he was out of the flavor. Tried ordering a bagel because they offer pastry and other breakfast items but proceeds to tell me they can’t toast it and that there was a place across the street I can take it to and ask them to toast it for free! Not to mention the wait in line to get to this point. Never again and i witnessed the two to three customers ahead of me in line struggle the same way. It felt like the staff didn’t want to do more work than just the basic pour a cup of coffee!!

Parking: Very hard to find a spot and people can get feisty about it. Pain coin meters not even with card

Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely not wheelchair friendly
