BitterSweet is a well-known coffee shop in Brooklyn that offers great cold brew and amazing maple lattes with intense flavor at an affordable price, often under $5, compared to other local coffee shops. Despite long lines, the line moves quickly, and the friendly staff has been there for years. The cafe also serves fresh, sizable pastries, such as berry scones and cinnamon buns, which customers highly praise. The shop is appreciated for its rich, clean-tasting coffee and simple, tasty pastries, making it a favorite among locals. Customers say the medium Americano has a beautiful crema and the latte has beautiful latte art, showing the barista's skill and pride in making great coffee. Although the tiny shop has no seating, customers often take their coffee to nearby parks. The prices are very affordable, with both coffee and pastries typically costing less than $10 together, though some find the almond croissant a bit steep at $6. The soy iced latte with four shots of espresso costs $7, and self-refill on different milks is unlimited. Even during busy mornings, the service is fast. The staff are smiley, kind, patient, and communicative, and the pastries are fresh and delicious, even if sometimes they are a bit old.
