Rudest baristas in all of Brooklyn…that is a FEAT 😂
Coffee inconsistent. Have ordered tea and gotten the completely wrong kind in my cup. Place is kind of dirty and absolutely crawling with laptops; there’s nowhere to sit if you just pop in during the day. Please create a laptop free zone for your non teleworking patrons!!

Always love coming here, coffee is fantastic, staff are lovely but don’t even bother going on a weekday. It’s basically a WeWork, four person tables are filled with single people spread out on laptops, taking zoom calls etc. They do not reserve any tables as non-laptop tables so it is essentially impossible sit down and enjoy the cafe as a patron which is a bummer. 😕 I tried waiting a few times to see if a table would come up but it seems like the laptoppers just park and camp out there for hours.

Milky bad matcha
Very popular with the locals. They’re always super busy each time I’ve gone. I’ve found the coffee here to be very inconsistent. Often, the foam on my lattes and cappuccinos have too many air bubbles. Also, they don’t seem to tidy / sweep the back patio upon closing. Many times I’ve arrived just after opening only to go to the back patio to find the tables and chairs all scattered + large crumbs of food on the tables and deck covered in ants and many birds lingering to snatch the crumbs. Prima isn’t the best but also not the worst.

I would love to like this place since it’s the closest coffee shop to me but in recent years my experiences have been lacking. The coffee is pretty good, can be inconsistent but it’s decent. The service is what’s really lacking. The baristas look miserable and can’t even be bothered to say hello. I asked them “how’s it going?” and didn’t even get a response. If you want people to tip you’re gonna have to at least pretend to be nice to customers… as a barista myself I can say that it’s really not that hard to fake a smile and at least say hello.

Local spot that is warm and cozy. I observed that they offer wine however that is in the evening. I ordered the teddy bear and a cup of coffee. Service friendly and fast. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This place is right around the corner from where I live, I’ve been coming here for years, since before it was Prima, it was primrose. Now I wrote this review from the front outdoor seating area, sipping on a tasty hot cup of drip coffee, eating a delicious chocolate chip scone. They have plenty of tasty pastries, which never disappoint, and the baristas that work here are friendly and approachable.
I feel grateful this cafe is so close to where I live. I also feel grateful that all manners of being are welcome here— I can come to work and feel comfortable, I can come to socialize, to watch the birds, or the many people walking down Greene ave. I appreciate that it’s typically poppin’.
My only wish is that the back and front outdoor seating areas be made more comfortable, with plants and flowers. Unfortunately it’s been remarkably barren and it need not be that way.

Think of your perfect low-key neighborhood wine bar where you trust every glass, the vibe is chill, the food is just what you need for a snack as you sip, the people are awesome, then step into Prima and find it!
