I really like this place because it has a good ambiance and not too crowded as well. The coffee and pastries that they had were so delicious. The barista was so friendly and pleasant to talk with. One thing that I got fascinated by this place. They had the most affordable and delicious coffee in town.

This coffee shop is situated on a busy street full of food stalls. The iced chestnut praline latte coffee I had was good, just not as powerful as Id like it to be. The waffle was delicious, though. If youre wandering around and wanted a snack, Id suggest that you grab a waffle and taste the coffee.

Very sad update, they were closed by the Marshals the first week of February, 2021 and is now in possession of the landlord. What a tough couple of years for them with all the MTA construction for the L line and then of course Covid.---Such a cute place. Please go before they tear down the building. Something this nice never lasts long these days here.

What I like about this coffee shop is that they really got my taste when it comes to coffee and pastries. It is not that sweet, and that is perfect. You deserve to be known by many! Expect me to recommend your service to all my colleagues and went here once again. Thank you!

There are a lot of good people working there that made them be on top and well-grown. The coffee is great, interior design is excellent, and the foods are delicious. This place is great for studying or getting some work done or chatting with friends. The prices also are very affordable. Thank you very much!

I had morning coffee and breakfast at this coffee shop! The coffee was unusual, I had a cold brew, and it didnt disappoint me at all. The sandwiches were also great, and I can customize them and satisfied with the results. Plus, All the staff here are friendly and attentive. We will come back and recommend the place to my friends.

I had my regular coffee this morning, Flat White, and I tried their sandwich with Curry Egg Salad + bacon, and it was a great match! Amazing! The sweetness and a little kick of curry spice with toasted bread! This coffee shop is mostly for the morning people, like me! Uh, thanks!

This diner had a nice waiter served us well.The grits was cooked right but they over load it with butter had my whole plate filled up with butter not cool.I felt like the hash browns could had more flavor to it so it was average. Overall I ate at better breakfast spots.

Im giving this place 5 stars for two things they have there that are AMAZING. First is their burgers. And last is this lobster bisque. That soup is literally the best soup I have ever had in my 37 years alive and I love soup!!!

My mother and I come here all the time whenever were in the area and absolutely love it! Very friendly staff, accommodating and understanding. The food is really good if your on the go or even for a sit down. The owner and daughter, two very loving people, are the best and make you feel at home. A DEFINITE recommend spot!

Excellent service, friendly staves, and a cozy coffee shop! I am so thankful to be one of your customers. Every time I came here, I always have your mochaccino and red velvet cake. Your staves always served my order immediately, and I thanked them for that. I should highly recommend this shop to everyone who loves coffee!

Not too shabby. Decent food. Dont like the type of traffic walking by, meaning homeless and people begging for food. But the food was good and cheap.

Nice place. i want to believe the food is good. but spent 25min waiting for an egg sandwich on a very non-busy morning. no one had any sense of urgency. surprised this place is still in business if they’re moving like this.

My boyfriend and I went to this coffee shop thrice during our stay and even went once for lunch. The servings at breakfasts were excellent and also delicious. We both had Blonde Caramel Brulée Latte, which was by far the most popular in this coffee shop for their signature blends. We will be coming back again!

Priceless gemOnly all-night diner I could find within walking distanceExactly the kind of place I was hoping to find again when I moved here 15 years ago after having come to NYC as a tourist in high schoolNice Greek ownersVery warm atmosphere with good classic rock of the 80s & 90sLike walking back into another eraProbably where Billy Joel composed New York State of MindThe city should make a law to preserve this place exactly as it is so people can see what the city was like 40 years ago

I utterly adore this place. They are right around the corner from me. I call for an order anytime 24/7 and they’re there in about 20 minutes. I love the people who answer the phone to take orders and the delivery people. It is a Stuy Town monument!

Is Dive Diner a thing, if so this is the place. They charge a 3. 75% administration fee, which is a complete rip-off. it is not applied to those who pay with a check or cash. Do people still use checks? I wish I had a paper check so I could just try and use it. I suspect they wouldnt actually take it, but the sign says the few is not apply to those who pay with cash or checks. I had bacon and eggs and they were below average at best. I visited on a hot summer afternoon and the place was uncomfortably warm. they have three non commercial portable air conditioners trying to cool the place, but its not working. If its over 80 degrees outside I suggest you try another place. Coffee was good and the service was decent, does the place looks like something out of the Soviet Union in the 60s.

This is the newest Saturday hang-out spot in the East Village on the weekends in NYC each and every weekend that the waves are NOT breakin in Long Beach or upon the Jersey Shore. Excellent coffee, omelettes, eggs, toast, grits and, most especially, service! Seems that the wait staff can sense us coming up Avenue A or through the StuyTown Oval and are brewing up the Joe for our rag-tag crew of East Villagers. We love it!!!

Great place for breakfast. It took all of three minutes for my eggs, sausage, home fries and toast order and the coffee comes in a quarter inch thick mug we all have had in the past. It is exactly what is promised and is affordable by Manhattan standards. Couldnt go there every day, but it is a fantastic option to have in Sty-town.

Coffee taste good and carrot cake. Chocolate layer not so much. A lot of deserts on menu not available so you are left craving what you cant have. Good service.

This place feels like home. A tourist attraction this place is not. One of my go to places for late nite diner goodness. Plus one of the guys there reminds me of the soup guy from Seinfeld (in appearance only).

Review №47

A bagel with cream cheese, tomatoe and bacon is $8.00. How is it more expensive than a egg breakfast sandwich. Unbelievable. And then it doesnt even taste good. Overpriced and not worth it.

The best in the east side of 14th street......a landmark a must visit

Feel like the place is on its last legs. Is a basic coffee shop, but feel the food quality has deteriorated over the years so I rarely go. The construction along 14th is probably not helping either as it is pretty noisy.

Comfy! I love that it is 24 hours and that you can literally stay and chill here all night if you want. There is a $4 per person charge per table so you definitely have to order something.

At 6am coffee should be HOT not warm. With only two people at the back table, the cashier had to repeat my order three times and still got it wrong. My order was bacon and egg on a roll to go. How hard is that...

Review №62

Horrible Horrible Horrible.....When you call for delivery, they rob you!!!$47 for 2 orders of chicken fingers with fries and 1 order of a Cheeseburger delux!!! This is not the first time they overcharge. I could see if they offer super fresh and fancy meals but thats not the case. Its a typical local diner that should have been renovated 50 years ago!!! Bunch of thieves!!!!

I really give them ZERO stars because the man who answered the phone told me to “HUSH Moreno” while I was telling him my order... I did not know if it was my voice that made him think I am black but I asked him for his name... All he told me was that his name was Steve...

Thursday morning-I ordered over medium eggs with Canadian bacon and home fries together with a large Cappucino--to go!I get raw (barely cooked) eggs-you can see the clear color whites, three thinly sliced round pieces of Canadian bacon and tasteless home fries. The large Cappuccino was poured into a LARGE cup but it was only filled less than half--tasted like water. All for $9.65. I will not go to this place again.One star-hate it.Two stars-the guy who rang my order was polite, but everything else was wrong!!!
