I love this location we order via uber today my croissant with cream cheese had no cream cheese I was a bit disappointed honestly, as this never happened before .Also had to remove the swiss off due to seeing green guacomole or avacado on it as well .Black star bakery & cafe was my go to when ordering I would definitely order again despite this .I pay a lot when ordering from you guys name kiyon on uber guys.I tryed the other location & got a iced latte with a little piece of cream cheese or something on the bottom I'm definitely done best of luck to you guys ❤🙏

Pastry was soggy, coffee was too bitter. Quite disappointed ☹️

Gosh your attitude towards customers in your replies is horrible. That’s not how you communicate with people. Show some respect first if you demand the same from your customers. I’ll make sure to tell my friends to avoid your place.

Honestly, it’s been my go to place until a few days ago. I’ve always respected their no laptop policy and have never really tried to do work inside a coffee shop either way, but that day I really had an emergency that came through when I was at the coffee shop. I pulled up my tablet, not even laptop, to run a few errands that wouldn’t take more than 10 mins but faced really rude staff that almost forced me to leave because of their policy. Gosh, we are all humans and I said it wouldn’t take more than 10 mins and I’ve been a regular, but they don’t care I assume. Just go to LB Coffee around the corner. Much better coffee and much more understanding staff.

Easily one of the go-to spots I've used for coffee across the last year. Between their front and back areas, the spacious location is consistently clean and easy to find somewhere to sit. Their coffee is by far some of the best, and this is in a location where they are competing with Mellow Yellow, Elly's, and Padoca!

Above everything else, their staff is incredibly friendly and makes an active effort to keep the place clean. I love the variety of food that they have across seasons and the amount of care that the staff provides to their regulars is really wonderful too.

Overall, the vibe of this place is amazing and the staff always maintain composure to create a welcoming environment. Have to credit this team for how well they treat everyone.

This place must as well be a dog park, not an eatery. They have posted (finally) a sign on the door, but it is at the bottom so it really is a wink and a nudge, not a sign of a restaurant that follows NY Health codes. Staff and the owner are doing nothing about pets (non-ADA dogs) all over the place, urinating on the floor, or putting their paws on table.

Completely empty, about 8 empty tables in the midafternoon, but still felt compelled to tell me I couldn’t use a laptop. Mind telling folks that before they spend $8 on a coffee?

Great lemonade! Clean, bright and refreshing! No WiFi, but that is amazing in this time where people need to talk to others and part of the reason you come into a coffee shop. The staff were friendly and polite. Would come back and would recommend. 🩷

I enjoyed my cappuccino there. Hope to sit in the backyard next time.

I went in person one time and the atmosphere was amazing! But I’m either a bit busy or it’s just not on my commute but I’ve ordered delivery and so far no complaints!

Perfect spot for a morning coffee! Out of all the café/bakery around my area, this one is my favorite! The staff always greets you with a smile and the service is exceptionally quick! Thank you Kirk for always remembering my order!
