About Bluestone Lane Astor Place Coffee Shop

Nestled in the vibrant atmosphere of Astor Place in East Village, Bluestone Lane offers a slice of Australian coffee culture paired with delectable brunch options. The restaurant is known for its fantastic gluten-free baked goods and fresh matcha lattes, which were once considered the best in the city. However, recent visits have shown that the quality has slightly declined as the business has grown, with the matcha not as good as before and the banana bread being hard, dry, and tough to eat.

Despite this, Bluestone Lane remains a popular destination, with regulars recommending visiting on weekdays or early mornings on weekends when it's less crowded. The food is still very good, with the flat white, a true Australian classic, and the savory Sunshine burrito, a flavorful ensemble of scrambled eggs, dill mayo, crispy bacon, creamy avocado, sharp cheddar, and fresh spinach, being highlights. The exceptional service provided by the staff, such as Jose, also contributes to the overall positive dining experience.
