The coffee is very good. I don’t think I’ll go again though. I normally go to this cafe to read my book on weekend morning to relax. And there is this guy, the barista’s friend(?) who comes in and talks very loud and also talks about politics. It’s like he has no awareness that it’s a cafe and other people are trying to enjoy coffee in a quiet place. He would talk at least 1-2hours. Just very annoying. The barista doesn’t do anything but talks very loud back to him. So… I’ll just skip this place if you want a quiet nice environment.

I go here on my small breaks and the staff is very friendly and reminders what u want when u walk in lml. Better than Starbucks. The tea they bag it up themselves and I luv it .

I've had to come here to work since my son had half days this week and I needed to be nearby. The space is clean, there is ambient music which may be an issue if you need to make a call, but its not too loud. I had to take a call with a client while Geenie in a Bottle played in the background, which made me anxious but it was fine. Snacks and coffee are great.

Never go here! Just spent money on Uber to visit as a tourist and arrived to firstly what just looked like an overly commercialised shop with loads of tourist paraphernalia and very little relaxed friends cafe vibe. This though from the outside. On arriving I walk in the door with my husband and a security guard rudely asked what I’m here for. I said for a coffee at friends cafe. He said closed to the public. I said ok why? He said closed to the public. I said ok when will it open. He said closed to the public. I said ok till when? He said closed to the public. I didn’t get in the door and have never been spoken to so condescendingly and rudely. This is middle of the day Friday. So they don’t care about visitors and on top of that it really just looked like a room full of merchandise so I wouldn’t bother. If you want a relaxing coffee somewhere just go to a local diner.

This Is an easy Going And friendly And Quiet café w fast free WiFi. It’s on 97th and 96th on 2nd avenue. They also have a bathroom, which is really nice to have in New York City. There’s also charging stations and tables and chairs. It might be small, but it definitely works. You can enjoy doing your work while having coffee or tea and some bakery stuff. The male staff who worked on Sunday Mother’s Day 5/12/24 was very nice and down to earth. People like him are hard to find in nyc. The drinks and bakery items are good. But it's the staff that makes the place ... hope the owner recognizes how precious this guy is. I’m sorry I didn’t get his name but know that you are a Star in my eyes. They are renovating for 1 week so it’s closed starting Monday 5/13/24.
