This is a beautiful cafe on the ground floor of the Whitney Museum. I ordered the chicken salad and it was completely tasteless. There was chicken in the salad and also extra chicken on top of the salad. The extra chicken was moist but also tasteless. It was like it had been boiled. My husband ordered the steak sandwich which was very good. We ordered side of bread which was excellent. Our server was snippy at times. When it came time to pay, the machine gave me options to tip 20%, 25% or custom. What? I have never seen this. Usually you see 10%, 15% or 20%. If you want convenience and a beautiful setting eat here; otherwise, opt for the dozens of restaurants nearby.

Overpriced and questionable quality. Great spot though. I won’t come back

If all you want is coffee and croissants, which would be normal on a Saturday at 11am, and not a full meal, the arrogant guy at the door seats you on uncomfortable high stools by the kitchen. No, thank you.

This is genuinely just really bad

What happen to the chips. I was looking so forward to the kettle chip, why? Please bring them back.

This review is for the cafe. A little bit of disappointment. Not expected this from one of the most important art institutions in the world. The servers behind the counter don't know how to greet customers. Look very stressed and overwhelmed. I have to say "Hi, how are you today?"" Ordered a ham sandwich and a flat white coffee. Sandwich was okay, cold and chewy. The coffee took forever. Only one barista for the coffee shop and the restaurant. He looked overwhelmed. He seemed to be a little bit new in this role. Coffee came out not great and too cold. On top, when paying the tip options started at 20%. This amount with not really table service is disproportionate and out of context. Sorry, but it's not worth it.

Extremely over priced for what it is but you’re paying for conscience. I do give it 3 stars because the service is impeccable and the atmosphere is beautiful as you are surrounded by a lot of natural light. There are so many amazing restaurants nearby that I would say you should save your money for unless you can’t be bothered and are already in the museum and are desperate for food. The food is not bad at all but I would not say it’s worth the price point.

The pizza is excellent but the chicken farro salad needs a complete overhaul. There are so many ways to make this salad amazingly flavorful and leave an impression…it sort of has an Asian twist but doesn’t use enough seasoning or sesame oil or lime or maybe rice vinegar….so many ways to make this 27$ Salad taste like a 27$ dollar salad….please please make this salad as delicious as I know it can be.
Very calm little restaurant. Thankfully unpretentious. A nice place to re-charge before/after visiting The Whitney.
Vegetarian options: The lunch menu was small overall but there was at least one meatless option in every menu section.

The sandwiches are on the expensive side but worth it. The combinations are interesting and fresh flavored. We split one and added coffee and a pastry. Again both were excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful and the setting is lovely. It appeared that you could go to this cafe even if you were not going to the museum.

It’s very clean and quiet cafe in the Whitney Museum. It’s next to the entrance. I just had an iced latte and it was OK. I liked the quiet peaceful environment.
