“Good food - good people. Every dish is fresh and tasty.“

“Amazing place. Our favorite in NYC. Great food. Wonderful people.“

“We had a great experience at The Regular while in town for the marathon. The food was amazing and I can’t say enough about the friendly staff, they were all attentive and a big shout out to the barista in the front…she greeted everyone with a smile and was so pleasant going above and beyond to make everyone that walked in the door feel like so welcomed.“

“Best breakfast in the city.“

“I can’t tell which is better, the food or service. We came in around noon on a Saturday. While it looked packed they were able to seat us the bar within 2-3 minutes of coming in, coffees served quick and the food was out in no more than 10 minutes. The vegan options are plentiful and soooo good. I had vegan salmon benedict and the missus had the vegan penny benny. It was my first time and the vegan salmon is damn good here.“

“Good food and cold beer! Mac and cheese hit the spot on a rainy day.“

“Thanksgiving Day Special was amazing !!!! If you come to NYC, you better eat at this place !!!! Off the hook…… Amazing !!!!!“

“This is such a great little spot in NYC! We went for breakfast and when we arrived the owner opened the door for us and welcomed us in. We had to wait a moment till they had a table for us, so they gave us menus to look at in the meantime. The food was delicious and very filling. There were quite a number of staff on hand, so we had wonderful service. They were very quick to refill our water and respond to any needs. I would definitely go here again!“

“I was there only to pick up a to go order but the place was PACKED and from what I could see AND smell everything looked and smelled delicious!!!“

“Came here for breakfast before the Statue of Liberty, and food was incredible!! Service was efficient and direct, restaurant was clean and bright. Would recommend for a convenient tasty meal in the area!

Luchador wrap was incredible, great blend of spicy chorizo, avocado, and eggs. Wraps fell apart a little while trying to eat and stand, but that could’ve been a skill issue. Avocado toast had a very generous serving of avocado and smoothies were tasty! Coffee was good as well. Fruit was fresh. Did not try any bagels, can’t comment on them“

“This could be the best breakfast spot on the UWS if you want to have the perfect price-quality balance. The guy working there is also super nice and kind.

Definitely recommend! Please note that it’s a cash only restaurant.“

“AWwsome Begel ,great place .. we are out of town or‘s and we were looking for a authentic bagel place and you hit the mark it was amazing when we get back here we will check you out again the staff was wonderful very friendly and helpful our bellies were happy😁“

“I really wish I could give a five star because the sandwich I received was amazing. I’m giving four stars because the atmosphere of the entire place needs to match everything. The worker at the register was honestly just rude and had a very standoffish attitude. It almost made me want to cancel my order and walk out the store. Please do better and be more welcoming because the food is amazing and it throws everything off. This was at 3:40pm today.“

“Visited from the Uk with our 3 girls. My breakfast was amazing….corn beef hash 👌🏻. The girls all had something different so had to have a taste of theirs too….all were so good. Definitely recommend this lovely little place 👍🏻“

“Café,desayuno,repostería y muchas cosas más.“

“I can’t express how GREAT this place is. From the moment you walk in door, you are greeted with a smile. The staff is super friendly & helpful. My toddler loves it there because of how gentle and patient they are with him. The owner is usually on the premises and is very kind. Fresh & Co has became apart of my daily routine. Whengeee you are in need a warm, friendly atmosphere, he is where you want to be.“

“Great place, mini diner, fantastic breakfast.
Atmosphere? Lol, Google doesn't understand how humans value space, it has the Atmosphere of a traditional lunch counter, which is fantastic for a lunch counter. Come here for food, it's great!“

“I’m from out of town, but do my best to go to Crema Gourmet Espresso Bar every time I’m in Miami! Everything is absolutely excellent. The atmosphere, service, and menu are five stars for me. I can’t recommend it enough!“

“I have had hundreds of breakfast sandwiches all throughout the city and the Breakfast Burrito from Uri’s is without a doubt the best. Perfect flavor and texture combination, manages to hold up if you aren’t eating it for a bit (doesn’t get watery). Plus the people who work there are super friendly. An absolute staple of the UES“

“I recommend delicious steak sandwich“

“Great breakfast . Friendly employees in a local spot. It is called by locals " dirty kitchen" BUT it just LOOKS dirty it is actually VERY CLEAN !! The asian wife is always cleaning. Great place for when you want a home cooked breakfast . Only like 4 counter seats but most people take it to TOGO.“

“time flies—meant to post this in February, it’s now November. better late than never.

Village Cafe & Grill is a small takeout spot (no seats no tables) for orders and pickup. it’s a small grill/deli sport filled grab-n-go snacks and soft drinks…the eatery serves a large breakfast and lunch menu of hot or cold sandwiches, burritos, pastas, wings, fries, omelettes, pancakes, French toast, and so much more.

stopped here on a cold February late afternoon and needed a coffee, the folks here brewed a fresh pot even though it was close to closing. really appreciated the staff here going the extra mile just for a solo customer and a cup of coffee. the coffee was solidly good and warmed me up.

definitely worth a stop by if you are looking for takeout food in the East Village area.“

“Fantastic spot for date night — cozy, warm, inviting. The food was absolutely delicious. We had the burger and rigatoni. Both were great but I’m still dreaming of the rigatoni ❤️Staff was friendly & helpful. I would definitely go back and recommend to others. There is also a coffee bar & charming outdoor seating area for warmer weather. This place is a gem.“

“I came with doubts but left with appreciation. The taste balance here hits perfectly, making every mouthful impressive. The attention to customers here is unmatched. Sol Maya Restaurant was suitable for our social gathering. I look forward to trying every item they serve.“

“this is a nice food truck! great service and recommendations. wraps were tasty! well proportioned. hot chocolate was too watery so thats the only downside. else this is a really fantastic breakfast truck and you can sit at the park nearby to eat them! well done !“

“Wanting to take my daughter for a special treat whilst in New York for a few days we booked afternoon tea in the Pembroke Room at the Lowell Hotel after knocking back the Plaza after reading a few dodgy reviews. So pleased we did as we spent over 2 hours enjoying every moment. The service was excellent as was the food, especially the warm scones. It’s a shame the cream was “Devonshire” rather than the traditional Clotted Cornish but other than that it was perfection. Lovely small intimate setting too where we felt our custom was welcome rather than feeling just a number as we were one of just 3 tables there. Would we return? Absolutely!“

“Spicy Gourmet Deli is a neighborhood staple and the best chopped cheese location. The staff are friendly, kind, and generous and the service is always fast and affordable. I love spicy and I think the Columbia community can agree we are very grateful to be near such an iconic establishment.“

“I must say food and service was great! I ordered via uber eats and everything was fresh, hot, absolutely tasty, and on time. I ordered the chicken and waffles, cheese omelet w/ hash browns, and a cheeseburger. So far, it is one of the best places I've ordered from. You definitely will be satisfied. Great portions and again, the food was delicious. Thank you for a great experience!“

“Amazing bagels and quick to get in and out. The tofu cream cheese was a good dairy alternative and the purple blueberry bagel was delicious. Staff was friendly and on point for service.

Dietary restrictions: Veggie and Dairy Free were options I enjoyed.

Parking: It’s the city, parking sucks.“

“Been staying at the Westin Grand Central for work on and off for 12 of the last 21 days so I've spent a ton of time in the restaurant - and the staff is wonderful, efficient, friendly and accommodating.The breakfast varies between a buffet and à la carte, and I've been here for afternoon lunch and tea meetings. Always a super convenient and welcoming spot. Neville and Merlinde are wonderful hosts, and Sandra and Attivia are attentive and thoughtful servers. They even remembered my birthday and surprised me!“
