This was my go to spot when I used to live down the block! Their baked goods were great and sometimes even featured local bakers on the weekend (fresh biscuits with jam...yummm). The coffee is excellent and they also have WiFi - however on some mornings it might be a bit crowded inside so it can be tough to work from there if you have to hop on work calls.

Easily the coziest coffee shop in the area. Great coffee, some of the best in the neighborhood!

Best espresso in Park Slope, hands down. Excellent pours, lovely old vintage Italian machine, and great milk texturing, all served up in real porcelain.

Outstanding. Go nowhere else.

Usually a great spot but went in this morning for my usual almond croissant and the person behind the counter gave me a plain croissant. When I told him he made a mistake he started and continued to argue with me saying I just said croissant. Terribly rude man with extremely poor customer service skills. Do not want to start my morning this way.

Espresso is 5 ⭐️. Pulled on a vintage machine, and NOT overly acidic. Classic Italian. Glad to know there’s a place like this in Goeanus.

What a little gem off the beaten path . . . stumbled onto it from the train station to visit Park Slope and it was such a great surprise. Briefly met the owner, who was very sweet and gave me a few tips/pointers for Park Slope. I highly recommend and will definitely get off the main jaunts for this! Thank you :)

Really disappointed to hear how the manager treats his staff. Disgusting

I really like this place, but today I witnessed an employee get fired for 'stealing dinner.' From the conversation between the owner and the employee (which i was eavesdropping on), it seemed to be much more about the employee rejecting the owner's offer to take them on a date. I believed this employee. This owner seemed slimy. I won't be giving them my money anymore

One of my favorite cafes in the neighborhood for its lovely ambiance. I like the coffee even if it isn't perfect. More often than not, the milk is steamed too hot and the foam isn't as creamy and textured as it should be. Not a big deal IMO but my bf is more particular and I know that it disappoints him.

The owner here is very creepy! Great baristas but could only imagine it would be very rough to work there! Stay away from that man!

Delicious iced vanilla latte, and much cheaper than I can find at most coffee shops. Super friendly staff and a good amount of seating for a smaller shop. Beautiful place to sit and read while you drink your coffee.
