Besides great Stumptown coffee , they play legit K-pop music here! Special coffee drinks go by the amt. of milk by oz on the menu. Ask how to decipher! Flat white is the 5 oz, cortado is the 3 oz.

Phil Toronto

Really awesome spot. Good amount of seating, great coffee , wifi (password on the tip jar) and they have almond milk ????????✌️

Lucy Maria

Friendly service & good place to work from. Not good for a call as it can get loud , but there’s free WiFi & bathroom plus yummy pastries & coffee . Gets busy so best to come early to get a good spot.

Anne Pol

Cortados are delicious. The guy barista with dark hair and beard is the best! Finally a truly nice happy person serving at a 3rd wave coffee shop :)

Gothamist

This is not the most spacious of coffices, but has the working coffee break basics: semi-strong wifi , a long, communal work table, natural light , power outlets , and a bathroom . Read more

Love the coffee as well as the mixed green/black tea . Great place to meet a friend or business partner. I wouldn't try to work here as it's loud and chatty. Plus the wifi is budget.

Mischa

Great spot, cozy and very local. Treat yourself to a espresso with milk (widely known as a latte ) or ask for the daily brew. Also, chai tea is one of the best I've tasted.

Kevin O'Neill

Cute little coffee shop tucked away such that you might miss it. Don't expect a great breakfast but good coffee

Selina M.

Super cute café with nice staff and gluten-free + vegan options for pastries as well as milk . Def recommended!!

Good coffee and cozy place. Could be a bit cleaner, more stocked up and tidier but it does have a local, cool vibe.

Justin

Great coffee , friendly staff . Sit in the window and watch the world go by as you recharge!

Delicious coffee , definitely in the top tier for NYC. The Hair Bender espresso holds true to its name.

Bruce M. Foster

Literally off the beaten path, in a neighborhood seemingly devoted to sports bars and screens, it is a nice place to hang for a bit and sip a hot beverage.
