Get the avocado toast & a croissant sandwich. This is genuinely the best cafe in Harlem. The food is incredible & it's so cozy and comfortable.

My friend and I are from out of town and we came looking for a cozy coffee shop in Harlem with tasty lattes and treats. That’s exactly what we found! The atmosphere is very welcoming and home-like. We both ordered food and two drinks from their seasonal menu - the dulce de leche latte and the brown sugar sea salt latte. Both were AMAZING. As for food we ordered an egg and avocado sandwich on their chili cheese crossaint. Perfectly seasoned and tasted so fresh. Will be sure to make a stop again in the future!!

This place is so chill! As a Washington Heights native, its lovely to find cozy cafes near the neighborhood.
The atmosphere is very calming and cozy with light jazz playing in the background. The workers are so kind too.
I mentioned to the barista that my tummy wasn’t feeling too well and she gladly recommended me some options that are gentle on the stomach. I went with the Peppermint Herbal Tea w/ lemon on the side. It was exactly what I needed.

Then I ordered the Olive + Hummus Toast! Delicious! I will definitely be returning.

I went here for the first time this weekend and I think this might be my go to study spot.

The drinks are great. The wifi is fast. There's just the right amount of tables and table space to do your work. The two men that worked were friendly and on point. The atmosphere is chill. They play Spanish ballad music, sports on a small tv. I don't have headphones so it was nice to hear when I zoned back into my surroundings after taking a break from my work. The music was a nice break. The baseball was a mild distraction give me a work break too, lol.

Their chai tea is good, but not as much spice to there's. The blueberry muffins were GF, at first I didn't like it but my final verdict was not bad. Their everything sandwich? Smoked salmon, tomatoes, cream cheese, and onions on a bagel, were pretty good.

4.3/5 for this place overall so far!

Friendly folks with a communal vibe. Tight space but welcoming and warm. They have a wide variety of quick grab snacks and warm food. I’m a cold brew drinker and was deeply disappointed when I saw the barista pull out a store bought bottle of cold brew to make my order. I could’ve gone to the grocery store if I wanted prepackaged cold brew. 😔

This cafe is a great addition to the neighborhood. The matcha lattes are tasty and they’re always coming out with seasonal drinks. It’s definitely on the pricier side, but it’s worth it. Also, the music isn’t too loud.

I did a too good to go bag and I was very disappointed. Received 3 pastries.

We were visiting for work from Ithaca, NY, and frequented Common Good multiple times during our visit. Every morning, the service was phenomenal, people friendly, and food/coffee perfect! We will miss our morning stops here!

My 9 year old daughter actually spotted this place when we were just taking a brisk walk and the experience was great! They had a few Vegan and gluten free options so I was excited 😊. The banana nut muffin was delicious 😋

Amazing La Colombe espresso and pastries!! I’ll be dreaming of that pecan sticky bun. Vibes are great for working or meeting up with friends. A must try for sure!
