This place used to be my regular spot, but now it's closed more than it's open, isn't a coffee shop anymore, and instead serves overpriced eclectic brunch and dinner. I understand changing hours to better suit the business, but to give a neighborhood the coffee shop they always wanted and then completely change is just upsetting.
Variety a few blocks down is thrilled with the new business though and that's now unfortunately where I have to make my new coffee home. I am pretty devastated.
Awesome little coffee shop with a cute patio in the back. Decently priced and delicious coffee and even more delicious food options. Try their sandwiches, you will not be disappointed. Their pastries also looked delicious and the owner joked that if I didn't like the almond croissant he'd comp me (should've taken the challenge! Hah).
Speaking of the owner, he is so sweet and goes out of his way to make people feel welcome (can't say that about the other staff). There was a homeless man outside one day that I was there and the owner went and got his coffee order (down to milk preference and number of sugars) and took it out to him. Definitely the kind of business and service I like to support. Can't recommend this place highly enough!
Location
=======
It's hidden among a bunch of small rundown looking shops, and you'll easily miss it if it's your first time.
Interior
======
Earthy yet modern, reminds me Brooklyn cafes. They have both indoor and outdoor seating area.
Service
======
The owner is a fun character to meet. He was in the middle of creating a new drink when I came in one day, and he sold one to me when I requested it. Since it was near closing time, he even threw in a few extra goodies to my order.
Food
====
My salad tasted fresh and homemade, but it was nothing to write home about.
Conclusion
=========
Definitely recommend it if you happen to be in the area. Come at closing time for possibly extra goodies.
New coffee shop in the hood? You know I'm there!
This place is very cute and rustic inside, I'm in love with the decor.
The owners are also extremely friendly and personable.
We ordered a Turkish coffee, a regular coffee and the hummus pita.
The hummus is homemade and thick and chunky (just how I like it).
It just tasted so fresh and delicious, definitely try it.
I was also pretty delighted that they served Turkish Coffee with a Turkish Delight.
I feel like few places do that these days. It was really great though.
The regular coffee was also pretty good.
Quiet coffee shop, right next to the train station, you really can't go wrong.
I had the same experience as Julia M., minus the impending train.
They are so nice and friendly here, and it's got a great, casual ambiance. The coffee's not my favorite – Mixtape is better – but it's good. It's just SO SLOW. My partner and I were the only people in line, and it was eons before we had drinks in hand.
I never mind waiting for quality, but it seems a bit overkill here.
Prices were steep, coffee was fine, mimosas were damn good. I can't speak for the dinner menu, and I know this place isn't a "coffee shop", so I can't rate it based on that. If you want the best cup of joe in the area, go to L'Imprimerie. I'll be back to this place because my lady is a staunch defender of it, so I will update details, and rating if need be, after that.
I was very underwhelmed with my experience here. Service was good but the food and space left me wanting more. It's a really narrow space (rail road style), I'm sure someone's Spanish grandma was bought out of her apartment to create this restaurant, Lol. But they enhanced the decor and upgraded to the usual hipster aesthetic. Exposed brick, wooden tables/stools and industrial touches throughout.
We were seated in a really cramped area, so close to our neighbor that my stool was on their jacket. It was awkward, but hey we're in NY.
Our waitress was new – she kept asking another waitress questions we asked her – which was fine. But she kept forgetting things like utensils, napkins, water, etc. The other girl just ended up serving us altogether.
I had the red eye brunch dish with a side of potatoes for $3 extra. My boyfriend had the breakfast sandwich with turkey and a side arugula salad for $4. The red eye dish was so disappointing, it had all the workings that make for a delicious dish yet it didn't deliver. Picture this: eggs and pork belly over a brioche bun topped with Turkish coffee gravy. Sounds awesome right? No. It had absolutely no flavor. I added salt and it didn't even absorb it. The bread got soggy with the gravy and it just didn't work out well. The breakfast sandwich, however, was delicious. Very simple and very tasty.
The side of potatoes came with maybe 10 tiny pieces. I swear I think they gave me someone's leftover bowl by mistake. I immediately asked our waitress and she brought out a full bowl. It was so strange. Arugula salad was good.
Overall, nothing about this place made me want to come back. It was just A-OK. There are so many fantastic brunch spots in Bushwick that I frequent that are much better than this place.
