Daily Press Coffee
“I don't think I would choose to come here above Breukelen or Sit and Wonder if I weren't heading to or coming from the train, though.”
“The menu into extensive but its a lovely place to sit with a book or your laptop, have a great coffee, a light bite, and watch Bed-Stuy go by.”
“Intelligentsia coffee, the aforementioned french press, the food I have yet to actually try but seems to be awesome.”

It's a small cafe with only a few tables and chairs inside, but they have a cute outdoor patio in the back with additional chairs and tables. A large fan blows air to help keep it cool on hot summer days.
The bathroom is very clean (you need to get a code to open the door).
The iced chai latte was a little thin, but it wasn't too sweet, which I like. The lamb and potato meat pie from Four and Twenty Blackbirds is da bomb! I love that they heated it in the microwave and then popped it into the toaster so that I had a warm, but not soggy meatpie. It was totally worth the wait.
The WiFi was strong. Great place to hang out.
Quaint little gem conveniently located right off the C train.
Pros:
+ Back patio. RARE FIND. If I remember correctly, it's heated in the winter, and the wifi works back there as well.
+ Great espresso, and…
+ …espresso is served with sparkling water!!
+ Beer and wine available
+ Several vegan options (I cannot list them from memory, but I know they exist)
+ The milk counter has agave syrup available (in addition to honey and simple syrup)–nice touch!
+ Never crowded, even on weekend afternoons
+ They're always playing awesome music. Always. One time they played "Candy" by Mandy Moore and I nearly turned into a "woo girl."
+ Adorable bathroom
Cons:
– Limited seating inside (but there's always something available thanks to the back patio)
– Seating by the window gets pretty hot during certain parts of the day
Check this place out! It's a charming shop surrounded by Dunkins, so going anywhere else would be a serious lack of judgment. 🙂
So easy to miss. It's on the left about 2 doors after Natural Juice (one of my fave spots) if you're walking towards the C line and S shuttle station on Franklin and Fulton.
It's rather inconspicuous so look carefully. If you're already at D. Donuts then you've passed it.
They have the usual fares of a coffee shop served with tablespoons of pleasantries.
There's a seriously cute little backyard that I missed on my last visit. Today Friday March 6th 2015 @ 1:45om, it's bathed in sunlight, it's cool and what a treat after leaving the mushy streets at the front.
I rather like this spot. SB without the….. well the franchise. I apologize in advance for the comparison
The End.
I wanted to like this coffee shop becos it was different from ur typical dunkin donuts and/or mcds coffee.. But i gave this place several tries and the last was when i ordered a vanilla donut with hair on it 🙁 prior to that my coffee had curd in it, which i dont think i can blame them for but the donut w hair on it was jus my last straw.
This spot is the only upside of taking the C train. It is the worst line. I mean, how could a train that services SO MANY stops come every 10 minutes?!
I digress. Friendly and great service. Reliable lattes. No doughnuts but there are pastries. Not a fan of the croissants (not crispy enough) but the cheddar chive biscuit is awesome. They are experimenting with new beans for brewed coffee. You can also buy bulk prepared coffee to go – great for mtgs.
I do like that this coffee shop hosts poet night and various other events. And a CSA! Makes it cozy.
Lastly, there's a garden. Wear bug spray…
Cute coffee shop! Bought coffee to go, drip coffee, and cheddar chive biscuit. Service was extremely kind and prompt. Loved how cute the space was–would work or read here on a lazy afternoon for sure!
Daily Press has such a nice feel to it. It's in a relatively hip area so I was prepared for annoying baristas and annoying customers. Thankfully, I was mistaken! I ordered a coffee ($3), and got a free refill. There are tons of sweets, some of which are vegan. They also do some pretty funky lattes, like a spicy latte with cayenne or a maple latte. I was a little too timid to try, but I like that they are willing to try!
Service was very kind. My sister sat and caught up in here for about two hours and never felt pressured to leave. There isn't a whole lot of seating, so I would suggest coming early if you plan to sit for a while. There is also an outdoor seating area which looks like it will be great during warmer weather!
After living in Bed-Stuy long enough to sample nearly every café within a 20 minute walk from my apartment, I've come to realize that Daily Press is by far the best. The drip coffee and iced coffee are great, the staff is cool, and the backyard is my favorite place to chill out or get some work done on a nice day. While I'd previously complained about the prices, they are decidedly on-par with the other cafés in the area–sometimes cheaper–and are a much better value. I only wish I still lived around the block!
