Favorite cafe in LES. A large space with an amazing interior. Oriented rugs and modernist art. Plenty of seating and outlets.
The coffee is expensive but overall it's excellent. The cappuccino is my go to, the espresso is smooth and well balanced, they also do a mean job frothing almond milk which is a rarity on the east coast.
This Cafe boasts an interesting and unique environment. There is open seating consisting of benches and floor cushions on one side and tables and chairs towards the back of the cafe. The coffee was okay, but the price is a bit on the higher side — $5.25 for a small late and .$50 to add soy milk.
This place is crowded though, especially during peak hours in the afternoon. People are literally stacked on top of each other. The music is also really loud where they are blasting Kanye non-stop, which is disappointing cause it takes away from the chill environment. Consequently, all these factors also make it a place NOT very conducive to studying. Moreover, the wifi seemed a bit slow due to the amount of people all connecting to the same network. I was watching 20 minute videos that kept lagging every few minutes.
May be a better place to come if you are a tourist, or if you are out with friends. The prices are steep too.
Expensive and not worth it for food and drinks. I had a hot matcha and tried the cold matcha off my friend and tried her salad too. We've had better but this cafe isn't for food. It's for the seating area. It's so pretty! You can't find a cafe like this in the city. There are communal tables as well as individual tables and even seats all along the wall with cushions! There are outlets along the walls. It's a great place to meet up with friends or go on a date (I saw a first date in action here!). It's also dim but I saw a lot of people working on their laptops.
FYI: if you ask for your drink to not be sweetened, they will give you a bottle of syrup. We thought it was something for our salad and almost added it! Luckily the bartender/waitress came to our table to get it back.
I came to Spreadhouse yesterday to get some work done. After seeing it in Yelp for a while, I decided yesterday was going to be the day.
I got the matcha latte, and it was perfect! Baristas are friendly as well.
What I like most about Spreadhouse is its open door with plenty of space for people to get their work done. There are tables, floor seating, cute armchairs, etc. Internet is strong. It has a VERY chill vibe with thoughtful design. Most people were doing some kind of work, but there were people also just hanging out, too. I definitely can't wait to go back.
Great bar on the lower east side. Was packed when I went in, mostly students working on their assignments or creating social media NYC history. Was a good break for me after a long walk on the lower east waterfront on a summer day with the sun was at its peak. Got a nice IPA and others got tea/coffee. Have to say, with a decent beer/wine list and caffeine it does cater to a nice market.
Did not find the hanging chairs I saw in the reviews, but plenty of other couches, communal tables, floor cushions and comfy spots. Will try to test their wifi and be a write social media history on my next trip !
Came here was really by accident as my original scheduled place was closed…but this was indeed a sweet surprise! Entering into the coffee shop was more like going into a forest, where everything was wood-made and retained its wild nature. Sipping cappuccino inside was more like having a short journey away from Manhattan, something I was always looking for during the weekend.
If you are a big fan of dark and strong coffee, spreadhouse might not be your first choice, as the taste was a bit tilted towards light and balanced. But if you are looking for some place for a short break, or prefer to spend sometime alone, definitely drop by and enjoy a cup!
This is a cute cafe to get some work done or catch up with friends. They serve coffee during the day and beer at night! Their interior design is bohemian chic and great for Instagram photos. They used to have swinging chairs, but unfortunately they took them down. You can meet people from all walks of life here. The staff is also friendly.
The space is huge and nice. But the coffee and tea are only alright, and overpriced. Coffee are like more than $5. Maybe it's more than a bar than a coffee house? Didn't see the swing. There's check. It's a great place to hangout because of the huge space.
