It was going to be my first time; beautiful ambiance . However, the barista had her headphones in and was VERY rude. No hospitality what so ever. I asked where can I view the menu she said ugh right up here. I just walked out. Simple questions. Difficult answers. Hopefully i go back and she will not be there.

solid coffee and excellent pastries. very large space with workspace, outlets, wifi, couches, and some books. on the pricier side but worth it.

A hidden gem in Harlem, El Barrio. The owner is such a great guy and the service is excellent. The coffee and food are excellent. The place is as cozy as welcoming. Visit it, you will love it.

This is a lovely little gem. I went there to get some work done. Enjoyed a lovely quiche and glass of wine, but there's the option obviously of coffee and tea. I worked in their little room at the back and comfy chairs with lovely book themed wallpaper. The staff are super friendly and super helpful. They also have game nights so if you sign up for their club, you'll get notifications.

Great place to drink dark roast or a strong cocktail, socialize, eat a light brunch/lunch, work, study or chill. Dedicated owner (and his family), diverse mix of customers from East Harlem and wider Harlem. Open till 6, 8 or 10 depending on day.Wifi can be weak - blame Spectrum.

This place is a vibe! Excellent customer service and chill ambiance. We stayed for 4 hours and no one bothered us to leave. I will definitely go back.

Convenient cafe located near Silberman school of social work--- where there aren't any other small cafes or coffee shops around. & it's black owned! Service is always friendly and the cafe has a calming and charming vibe to it. This visit I got a chai latte and a blueberry scone. Both were delicious. A little overpriced but I'll be back either way. I see they have a happy hour so I'll have to stop by for that.
