Went on 10/5/2025 at 8:10 am and the Barista was just opening. Didn't start taking orders for another 10-15 minutes and was kind of rude. The latte when it finally came out was really good, I got the nutella latte which felt a little juvenile but she did great on that. Just got the bagel and it looks awesome so we'll see.

An amazing cafe, although you should note that once you're inside, it can be quite hot. Hot matcha was amazing. Will be back.

What a cute and delightful place. My favorite coffee shop vibe in NY, the coffee was exactly what we wanted. Third wave, medium roast coffee.

Black Cat LES isn’t your average coffee shop it feels like a living room for the Lower East Side. From the mismatched couches to the community events, there’s an unpolished charm that makes you want to linger.
Their coffee hits the mark strong, unpretentious, and always fresh. I love that it doubles as a coworking space by day and a creative hub by night. It’s the kind of spot where conversations flow easily, and everyone feels like a regular.

We went for the Friday night comedy show, the place was empty but we decided to give it a try. The MC was awful and the overall vibe was very cringy. Some of the artists were good. I felt very bad for them having to do their bit in front of 5 people. The coffee house was cute, just make sure to leave before the comedy show starts.
Unbelievably rude servers, messed with our order because we didn’t tip to their standards following obnoxious replies.

Absolutely great little coffee shop, the coffee itself was very good and the food was also pleasantly delicious. Honestly for the price and the atmosphere it provides I would highly recommend
