Great spot for breakfast with a wide variety of sandwich options. Perfect place to enjoy a relaxed morning chat with friends. Spacious setting, excellent coffee, and super friendly staff make the experience even better!

Love !!! I haven’t had the pleasure of being able to visit the shop in person, but they have been nothing but sweet, generous, understanding people. I usually order through Uber eats and presentation and taste is definitely there. The Matcha and avocado toast are so gooood. I remember I ordered a pastry from them before but they didn’t have it so they gave me a different one just so that I wouldn’t be empty-handed. I definitely would recommend giving them a try!!

One of the best coffee shops in my old neighborhood! I was attending nursing school at NYU and the coffee/atmosphere was always a great pick-me-up whenever I had a long clinical day at the hospital. The staff there is amazing with their genuine kindness and I always look forward to visiting whenever I'm strolling around the neighborhood. Much love to you all! <3

Hala is so much more than just a coffee shop! This place is a haven of community here in Bushwick, where the Baristas know your name and there is always a warmth and welcoming atmosphere. This place is literally a home away from home for me here in the neighborhood, and coming here is always a sweet spot in my day! In times of crisis when i need to sit in a comforting place, and on good days too when i just want to enjoy a moment of happiness, it’s just the place to go! The coffee here is sooo delicious! They’re always changing up the seasonal flavor with a homemade invention, and I highly recommend their food as well! It’s not just coffee shop food! It’s a restaurant that i would say is a destination! Personally i love the veggie bowl with grilled chicken added- there is nothing like it!! Do yourself a favor and take some time for yourself, go enjoy a relaxing moment away from the chaos of the city, cozy up at Hala cafe and you’ll see what i mean ;)

Recommended by a friend who had lived in the neighborhood for a while, and wow—it did not disappoint! First proper breakfast and coffee (at 2 p.m. lol) I've had around here, and I was blown away. The latte was the exact perfect temperature, with impeccable foam. I had the biscuits and gravy and, as a Southerner by birth, I say this plate could hold its own against anything down home. Love at first bite—it will be a challenge not to take up residency here every morning. 10/10!!!

The space is nicely furnished and very clean, with a bright and cozy atmosphere. However, the overall experience was quite average. I ordered the chicken sandwich, which felt rather small for the $17 price. The chai latte lacked aroma and flavor. While the café has a pleasant ambiance, it was quite crowded with people working on laptops—even on a Sunday. The staff were neutral in demeanor—not particularly friendly, but not unfriendly either.
Very good filter coffee, great espresso shot too, great customer service. Love it

We came here on a Saturday morning and were happy to see it wasn’t completely packed like most cafes in the area during the weekend. We ordered at the bar and I decided on the chicken sandwich with a side salad. We sat ourselves close to the front windows and were given order numbers that the servers used to drop of out played when they were ready. The service here was fast and friendly as well. The vibe was very clean and modern, especially for the area!
