Ordered 2 black coffees and finally found somewhere that does a flat white so got that too.
Amazing coffees. Didn’t order any food. It looked amazing too. Great and friendly service. Liked the artwork on the wall too.

Beautiful Butterscotch Latte in a delightful galley. So creamy and smooth, just the break I needed! Also a charming chocolate shop next door!

The food was excellent, a little bit pricey but I didn't mind it once I tried the food.
I think this place could improve the cleaning. Seats, table and bathroom could use some deep cleaning.

I'm a Long Islander, I been lucky to have some amazing coffee places all over the states. But ironically I did not try their coffee nor did I give their lattes a try, I felt they were kind of small for the price and just a typical NYC thing, but let me just say it is probably worth it quality wise. The Croffles are AWESOME! I had a Tiramisu and Earl Grey one. Earl Grey cakes and flavors are making their way more onto menus and I am all for it! The early grey croffle was so good, and don't let the small size fool you, that thing filled me up. It is literally "something sweet" it was very sweet but so tasty. Tiramisu was really good too, I just felt it was nothing insane but it was tasty on the croffle. Maybe because also it had nothing to balance it with a bitter taste, Tiramisu lady fingers gives it that espresso taste, it did have some espresso beans and powdering on it but not strong enough for my taste. They also had matcha tiramisu they sell and have some cool pre-made stuff, a tasty Korean inspire one looked so good!
I love speciality coffee, but I have to give it to these places, they are smart to go into baking, this was so tasty and gave me a wake me up with it's natural tea and tiramisu did have a that espresso vibe.
Also shoutout to the workers, very friendly, super funny, not too casual friendly, professional and just very kind people. NYC is a fast place, especially around 55th it can feel like everything is moving quick, even a bit lonely the city that is so big, it was nice to just have a chill chat and meet someone nice and the workers were down to earth! I'm a bit of a fisherman hillbilly and NYC is too much for me when visiting to see family, but places like these keep me going!
Give this place a try, worth the money!

Cafe was clean and had a good amount of seating. Pumpkin spice latte was very tasty and just the right temperature, not too hot. It was also served in a large and convenient mug on a plate.

“Croffle” piqued my curiosity when I stumbled on this spot and so happy I tried one! Amazing environment and staff were polite and happy. Flat white was also perfect and the environment with fun, real art and bright lights was uplifting and the perfect spot to relax and savor the delicacy!

The croffles would be great if they were fresh, as someone else mentioned here. Especially for the prices they’re charging, I wouldn’t mind waiting a little bit longer for something fresh. The croffles are not bad, but also not anything special.

Real Earl Grey Croffle is so superb, the cream tasted slightly sweet and well matched with the croffle.
Matcha latte is also great, recommended for matcha lovers. It’s tasted originally and pure.
