    My friend and I came to 1927 for a coffee / tea break. It was so nice and cozy inside, perfect for a cold winter day. Unlike many other cafes in the city, it wasn't super loud and there were a number of people there on their laptops. The seats were quite close to each other, so it was a bit difficult for the servers to walk through, but it didn't feel uncomfortably close. If you're looking for a cozy cafe in Harlem, check out 1927!

    08/20/22 Coffee Time in Harlem

    1927 Cafe Bar Popularr has been a recent find for me. I decided today was a good day to walk up to Harlem for morning coffee. I definitely wasn't disappointed. There's so much to love about this business. The lady behind the counter was so nice and very hard at work between customers. The atmosphere is very comfortable and homelike. The place is clean although a little warm until I sat to rest. They use ceiling fans. The coffee was a little more than I pay but it was excellent. They have a great breakfast menu and other food. It's confusing because the name is also Claire's Kitchen Cafe. In fact I was pleased to see on the business card that they have a location closer to my apartment on the Upper East Side. The sandwich and salad options look great. I'm recommending for the coffee and great service in a homelike atmosphere. They have a restroom too. Five Stars for opening early too!

    A Drip Coffee And Bagel With Hummus

    A pretty good cafe we just happened to stumble upon as we got off the subway and looked around. It has some delicious coffee plus some breakfast food. 1927 Cafe is a pleasant hangout and nice place for doing some work. Has some seats next to the window and a couple bigger tables inside. The prices aren't bad for this kind of thing. Basically it's like a coffee shop or a breakfast cafe. It happens to have a few sandwiches for lunch. The majority of the menu seems for breakfast though. Drip Coffee is the standard coffee. It's $3 for a cup. This is a nice way to get woke. Eat something like a bagel. It's $4.50 for one with hummus. The bagels are limited in variety but usually there's whole wheat. Also they have a few superfruit bowls. These are a lot more expensive than bagels and toast. Have a good morning along with a coffee and a bagel. It has Eli, one of the best baristas you can get. The place also plays cool music.

    Ricotta and Fig Mediterranean Toastic (ABSOLUTELY DELISH MUST TRY)
    Susan S.

    Very cute cafe in the neighborhood. If you ever want to get some work done or get some coffee / small eats, definitely stop by here. Definitely a very cozy place and welcoming. (Please still respect social distancing during covid and don't come with a big crowd if you do end up stopping by. Limit seating for indoors). Their menu has a decent amount of options for drinks and food. Definitely do not miss out on some of their food options. Their Mediterranean Toastics (specially the Salmon & Cream Cheese and the Ricotta & Fig) are ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!! Their pizzas are a little lacking, but they might be relatively new to the menu, so I am looking forward to more options in the future. Fresh fruits on their yogurts/acai bowls and staff are absolutely wonderful. Would definitely come back here when I'm around the neighborhood.

    Great neighborhood cafe . Excellent breakfast and coffee. Friendly service. Indoor seating. Good menu of egg varieties and stable of pancakes.

    My partner and I love this cafe. This place is dog friendly! We walk our dogs, grab coffee (lattes are top notch) and sit outside in one of the many covered spaces. The decor is lively and artistic. By far the best part of the cafe is the barista Eli. He's such a friendly guy and always remembers our names/drinks. He also has the best jams playing - anywhere from old school R&B to today's best hits. Nice to have such a great community spot right near Central Park on a huge corner lot. They also have regular comedy shows which have been really entertaining. Definitely worth stopping by and enjoying if you are in the area or around Central Park. Also - VEGAN treats! Great vegan muffins, spreads, salads and açaí bowls.

    I represent a seller in a building close to it and love going there after my appointments and refer clients to come to check this place out, this is probably the coolest coffee shop you will ever go to from the wonderful coffee - probably the best you will ever have to the yummy food, the greek or chicken pita are highly recommended! Overall, my visit to this cool coffee shop was an absolute delight. It's a place where creativity flows as freely as the coffee, and where every visit feels like a rejuvenating escape from the ordinary. If you're in search of a coffee haven in the south Harlem area that's more than just a place to grab a drink, look no further. This coffee shop has mastered the art of creating an unforgettable experience, one cup at a time.

    This place is not closed. I bought a latte here today and sat outside along with other customers. Plenty of customers inside too.

    This place has very friendly baristas and good coffee! I went here a couple times during my trip to grab coffee and chat with friends in the nice seating areas. Additionally, it was very conveniently located for us to take a walk in Central Park with our coffees, which was excellent.

    Love this place. Such a delightful surprise. Very cool & fun but also cosy & comfortable. Yummy toast with a Mediterranean vibe and excellent coffee. Communal table and also small tables, indoor & heated outdoor. My new favorite!

    Dulce de leche croissant!
    Oliver C.

    Great new option in the neighborhood on the corner of 112th & St Nicholas. Haven't tried their food, but the coffee and pastries are great and sourced from a local bakery (try the dulce de leche croissant it is awesome!), and they have a couple of nice tables to sit at outside. They have a great $5 deal on a coffee and a pastry in the morning, too. The inside space is beautiful, lots of huge windows and exposed brick, and will make for a great cafe/bar space to hang out in once that is possible again. Also major props for opening a cafe at a time like this, much respect!

    My new favorite morning coffee spot. Eli makes an excellent flat white and also makes this neighborhood spot feel homey / warm :)

    Not really a question. I just bought a coffee from this place and there are many other customers. I'm thinking it's marked as closed because the name changed. The coffee shop is still here and it looks the same as before. How is it closed?

    I'm so glad my friend recommended going here because it's one of those restaurants that pique your…read moreinterest but you never really know how to navigate-- but lucky me, I had an Albanian friend to show me around. First thing you'll notice upon entry is how absolutely decorated it is. If you're a fan of Witcher, it's like walking into an an old-timey tavern. If you have no idea then-- it's like an old-timey tavern. I wouldn't be surprised of they had bard Fridays and homemade mead. It's also a big space. Reminds me of one of the last remnants of the bygone era that was the Obama-era glow. Like peak millenial where restaurants were starting to get viral but not to the point where they have to hyper compete with a gimmicky dish. The prices are a bit steep and was making me consider dropping my rating down a star but fuggit, I like their food. I played it safe and got the mixed grill meats but that's because I lack reading comprehension and thought the main dish (I don't know what it's called, it's just the 1st entree listed) was a baked meat pie situation, it was more grilled steak on a bed of mash potatoes but these mash potatoes were savory like gravy. I wish I got my friend's dish. The mixed grilled meats were a lot closer to doners or skewer meat. Different cuts but also different flavors. What they had in common was a sort of spice-forward sizzling taste. My friend got two appetizers (which I also don't know the name of) but were definitely the most beautifully presented foods I've had in a long while. They were both creams but one had a pepper in it (not the spicy kind). The pepper one was a light refreshing sourness and the other was a heavier but not heeeeavy savory one. Both great to dip your bread in. I wanted to try the lemon cookie for dessert but my friend got us all Tres Leches by accident. That was great but I would say the most non-novel out of everything we got. Delicious, just not something out of the norm-- which is what I go for when I'm trying a new cuisine like Albanian. I wouldn't say this is normal day-to-day Albanian (I have a few friends), it's more like the Americana equivalent, an upscale where Albanians go out to eat.

It was a little hard to hear and converse at times as it gets crowded, but the food was delicious and there are really unique items on the menu. Food: The duck shawarma was one of our favorites! The lamb and scallops were also flavorful and tender. The dips were delicious with the pita, but I wish the serving size for the dips were bigger. The fries were great - well seasoned! Also recommend the milky pudding, it was a nice refreshing way to end the dinner. Service: Our server was super helpful in letting us know what items are more shareable and his suggestions for cocktails. Definitely try some of the arak based cocktails.

We were lead upstairs to a table. There were 7 of us The seating was cozy but not cramped. We started with 7 family style small dishes: Hummus with Falafel Pops (chickpea purée, tahini, falafel, olive oil), Spring Burrata (roasted cherry tomatoes, toast, basil oil), Hamachi Crudo (passionfruit vinaigrette, citrus zest, cucumber, mint, sesame tuile), Scallops (carrot puree, serrano pepper, brown butter sauce), Tenderloin Skewer (zaatar chimichurri, fresh herb salad), and Shiitake Stuffed Grape Leaves (tomato coulis, yogurt foam, herbs). Everything was delicious. The hummus was well seasoned the falafel had a nice crunch. It went well with the warm puffy gyro bread that came to the table. The burrata was wasm and creamy. I love the vinaigrette on the fish. I ended up eating most of it. The scallops were the sweetest, most tender ones I have ever had. The tenderloin skewers were tender and well seasoned. I liked the grape leaves but the rice consistency was very soft almost mushy and you can barely tell there were mushrooms. There was barely any mushrooms flavor. Next we all chose an entree. I got the duck breast, my husband and daughter each had the beef tenderloin. The duck breast was smaller than i expected. The skin was nicely seared and very crispy but boy did it give my jaw a workout. It was done medium rare. It was juicy but tough. The small beef tenderloin was tender and smoky. The waiter poured the sauce over the tenderloin for added flavor. Finally dessert was a fruit plate with ice cream and pudding. The fruit was fresh and the flavors of the ice cream and pudding unique. It was a nice end to a good brunch. The price was a little expensive at $85 a person.

The birthday coupons are what had brought me in every year, but even though they stopped during Covid, I still enjoy visiting.

The atmosphere is classy but down-to-earth. The cocktails are tasty. The service can be slow, but it means we are never rushed out. The prices are mid-high, but commensurate with the quality of food.

We could not have been happier with what we got for a place that we picked totally randomly.

Then the food itself arrived and was really delicious and well presented, just look at those kebab plates and dips! They also gave our group free baklava at the end I think just because they felt a little bad they had to rush us, which wasn't even their fault and was super appreciated. Also, the interior decoration is fantastic. The restaurant feels super classy and elegant. Great vibes for a date, a business dinner, or just a fancy dinner. Overall, easy 5 stars. Great food and amazing service. Oh and the wine was delicious too.
