I've been coming here since they first opened, and it's definitely the best coffee around. With the new menu, it’s even more exceptional, as the food is fantastic—better than most restaurants in the neighborhood.

What a charming and cozy place! The staff is kind and friendly. I only stopped by for a cappuccino, which was excellent, but I can't wait to return and sample the rest of the menu!

This is the best coffee shop in Bay Ridge, without a doubt. Each barista is truly exceptional.

Bay ridge was sorely lacking a craft cocktail and coffee spot, and this place hits the right mark! The inside is cozy (sometimes cramped) due to the long narrow shape of the place, but there is also outside seating when the weather is nice. The drinks are unique and strong, so you won’t feel too bad paying $15-18 per cocktail. We enjoyed the margarita and old fashioned, and would come back for a pre-dinner drink or two! The small plates of food looked good too, although still on the pricier side. If you imagine you are in Manhattan you won’t mind a bit!

I absolutely love this place! The cocktails are expertly crafted and the food is fantastic. The burger is especially amazing—definitely one of the best in Bay Ridge. The staff is not only friendly but also skilled at what they do. I highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area!
