Stopped by for breakfast and got a bagel and coffee that a group walking by asked if the bagels were good and one said “He’s smiling and saying “yes”.”
I can confirm the experience was great. Lady was welcoming, cute indoors area and seating outside with a NYC view. I got the Salmon & Cream Cheese bagel and Dulce De Leche iced latte. It’s a great start to my Friday and weekend in NYC.

Super regular coffee shop, serves devocion, nothing too special, but nice. A little bit of seating, it’s never too busy. There are 2 tables outside. No AC. No laptops on weekend. Good latte. They have pistachio milk.

Such a hidden gem! The coffee is rich, the sandwichs are fresh and Sam brings a personal touch that makes the whole place shine. Definitely my go-to spot now.

I didn’t have anything to eat, but the campfire latte was just as good as it sounds in my opinion. The service was quick and the atmosphere had low light, but the interior design was interesting. As it was filled with Llamas.

The coffee offered is devoción which was a good sign. The staff was friendly, although not the most knowledgeable about type of espresso they were pulling. I ordered a cappuccino and the espresso was great! The milk steam wasn’t with a design or steamed quite velvety, but it was still well done. A little overpriced compared to other shops nearby.

There is minimal seating outside and inside.

Love this place - stop here for my morning coffee on the days I go into the office. The baristas are all friendly, and importantly, efficient. Prices are on the higher end, but I suppose that’s just how it goes with quality coffee shops in NYC right now. They use Devocion beans which is a high end specialty coffee roaster, so I guess it comes with the territory. They also sell bags of whole bean coffee for at home use!

The best iced coffee I’ve found in NYC and the Nutella banana bread is so good I have to remind myself to be responsible and not get a piece every day. They used to have an outpost in the little park right out front by the subway stop, I understand why they didn’t renew that lease but so glad this storefront is still there.

The decor here is cute too, I love the llama theme all over and they even sell their own custom coffee mugs now! I have to get one. I’ll come here for as long as I live in the neighborhood and commute on the F - this is a gem of a coffee shop.
