Fantastic crunchy granola in the muesli bowl. Various doughnuts from underwest donuts - try the maple waffle flavor.

I love this place. I love the design of everything (colors, materials, presentation, vibe), the best avocado toast I’ve had, a great flat white , and friendly Aussies . Wi-Fi password is “coolbeans”.

Sweatshop Coffee in Brooklyn is an Australian inspired cafe and espresso bar serving flat whites and chill vibes in Williamsburg. Aussie made, Brooklyn served.

Alexa Solima

Love the donuts and latte . It's never crowded when I go, which I love because I can easily sit down and have a nice conversation with my friends.

Abigail Koffler

You might think avocado toast is over but theirs is really good. Really good espresso drinks too.

Vicky O

Delicious avo on toast the chilli flakes and lime on the side gives it a kick! Coffee is delicious too.

The yogurt breakfast bowl was SO good...great latte and latte art...and the bathroom here is so chic !

This Aussie-run café is located right off the Bedford stop in Brooklyn. Usually packed, but never pretentious . Order the Sparky : espresso + club soda + lime . Read more

Will Scholl

Really small space so it will likely be crowded . Worth going to for the staff 's super rad Aussie accents.

Bommy

Gorgeous. Try the muesli bowl, long black, and admire the custom built furniture . Lovely staff and awesome merchandise for sale too.

Alexandra Faria

Great spot to eat or just have a cup of coffee . Never super packed, so we can always find a spot to seat and relax. One of the best iced coffees ive had

Brian Grogan Jr.

Deliciously smooth cold brew ! They make a good Cortado too. The chairs have funky designs on them, and give the shop a trendy , cool feel in a cozy space .

Ben Mackey

Aussie coffee shop with a great vibe. Great flat white . I’ll be back again for breakfast .

Sarah Sampsel

Favorite coffee shop in Williamsburg. Flat whites and avo toast all day! Friendly staff , great music , and all around chill vibes. Pop in!

Théo Blochet

Cool place to work . Flat white is great. But do come with your laptop charged : they only have a handful of power sockets, and they're not exactly easy to reach.

Jacob Briars

Really good Australian coffee shop with friendly staff . They use the Southern Hemisphere terms - an 'espresso ' is a 'Short Black'. They serve great coffee in stylish cups.

Kayleigh Harrington

Great place to meet friends or sit and read in the sun. The avocado toast with feta and mint is delicious.

Caitrin Facini

The sparky is amazing, it’s like a coffee cocktail ! Favorite avo toast in the neighborhood .

Scott Caution

Great cold brew and the brekkie sandwich was killer.

Bernhard

Get a flat white or one of their newest creations. Hands down for the nice and sleek interior!

Abigail Koffler

The feta avocado toast is really good and served with flakey salt. sometimes you can’t resist.

Corine Schmal

Flatwhite for your coffee fix and the co-yo bowl was a great breakfast / lunch pick! Vegan & Gluten Free options

Carol

Well it's called the Sweatshop with good reason... No A/C. But, they have all the right drinks to help you cool down. I went with the Esky! $5.75

Tan

Great goldie turmeric and smash avocado with feta toast ! Kind staff too!!

Basak

Get a flat white and take lots of pics! It's one of those instagrammable coffee shops in the hood.

Kimmie Ohh

Aussie café ????. Pair their flat white with the avo toast for a picturesque breakfast or brunch ????

Erika Perzi

Fantastic space, great menu. Flat white w macadamia is TDF. Avocado toast looks insane, will be back.

Jay Alvarez

very cute and cozy . a nice place to have a conversation with friends with a cup of coffee .

Lori Luo

Australian coffee offered in a trendy , low-key ambiance. Try their Flat Whites or their tea , which is served in individual teapots .

Globetrottergirls Dani

Excellent coffee shop in Williamsburg. Free wifi & plugs, but limited seating .

My fav spot for breakfast in this area. Great coffee , opens early, small but delicious breakfast menu

Dorien van Linge

Nice coffee and cute little place to work or meet up with somebody.

Clinton N.

One outlet for the whole place, gets really, really lively during the day. Total hangout spot for the local Aussies.

Ashley Mowrey

Cute spot, very very hip and cozy . The staff were pretty curt with me unnecessarily, but the barista was nice. Counter culture done right, but mediocre and overpriced food imo.

Natalie Hollier

Great place to work from, has free wifi and a big shared table

Cynthia Lin

Love their ice cap. They also serve underwest donuts !

Don Draper

Small coffee shop but with enough seating for a drink and quick bite . Coffee is good and on or pricing. The food is fantastic but slightly on the over priced side of things.

Mish and Rob

Cute little place with great coffee ! Never worked from here - and apparently it gets really busy during the day.

Peter Wu

Such a friendly Aussie coffee shop . Get the flat white !

Rem Koning

Get the sparky - tonic, ice, espresso and lime . Add an extra shot of espresso .

Sue Lee

The flat whites + muesli . Great space to sit and decompress for a bit.

Jennifer Atilemile

Great coffee and good non-dairy milk options. Friendly staff but I'm probs biased because I'm an aussie.

Belinda Preno

Has everything you want: good coffee , outdoor seating , free WiFi

Chad Horner

probably one of the trendiest cafes I’ve seen, you’d almost think they hired actors to sit here all day and look cool

Roz Thomas

Aussie inspired food and a great flat white . Try the avo on toast . Delicious.

Mary Elise Chavez

Donuts are so delish. Coffee on point.

Andy Jiang

Aussies know breakfast ! You can work here too. Just don’t show up with a Lenovo, you corporate cheese bag.
