Zanny’s Cafe
“A cute artsy cafe, great for a quick Cappucino or if you wish some simple fare such as a good number of breakfast wraps with unique combinations.”
“Hit up the health lunch wrap with a side salad, along with an energy cookie.”
“If you are a denizen of Manhattan Valley (anywhere within eight square blocks of 106th and Amsterdam) you know what a find Zanny's is.”

Hungry, I impulsively came here for a quick bite, and Zanny's delivered! They have great breakfast wrap options, which earns big points. They also have some awesome looking lunch sandwiches and salad options. Their iced coffee wasn't half bad, either. I just kind of wish it was larger so more people could eat and chill out, but it's a great neighborhood option.
Just need to reiterate how delicious the hybrid sweet potato/pecan pie is. Also, any sandwich that has granny smith apples get an A in my book. I started talking to a guy from Nashville over the sweet potato/pecan pie and we're still in touch….so it could theoretically be a meeting spot?!
Anyway, definitely a very friendly place, but beware…I think it's Cash only
When Zanny's opened in the neighborhood, we all did a little dance. It was one of the few places along Columbus above 100th where you could sit down and have a coffee. Now there are a couple coffee shops in the area, but Zanny's is close to my heart.
They make great sandwiches for a quick meal and are one of the few places in the neighborhood that makes real hot chocolate, meaning not from a powder.
Also, Wednesdays it's movie night with an $11 prix fixe that will get you any main meal off the menu, a bottle of beer, and a dessert.
I went in this afternoon with $4 to my name. That limited my choices, obviously. As much as I wanted a cookie or one of their epic chocolate croissants…*drool*…, I knew I had to be a good little girl. I wanted a salad but was, unfortunately, $3 dollars short. That's when I saw "smoothie" on the menu! Somewhat filling, healthy, and I could afford it. Huzzah! It's a simple mix of strawberries, bananas, and blueberries mixed with ice and (in my case) soy milk. It was so good that the guy in line behind me put his Odwalla back in the fridge and asked for a smoothie instead.
Two happy customers!
I swear, one day, I WILL get a real meal there! A girl can not live on smoothies, chai, chocolate croissants, and Zanny's Energy Cookies alone…though, do I try? Yes. Yes I do. *sigh*
The Egg Zanny, when the place is not slammed is so good. This is a favorite Moleskin spot. Because the flow of people that come through there varies. It is like channel surfing different reality shows. Be careful. It is easy to get soaked up in the little magic that this spot has.
