I love this place so much but OMG the music is so freaking loud during the work day when everyone is clearly trying to work. I used to come here all the time but idk if I can continue it. noise cancelling doesn't even help and can no longer take any work calls here. it's ridiculous read more

Came on a Saturday afternoon before the official Yappy Hour specials began- but after enjoying some live bands in Tompkins Square. We needed a cool down with some summer shandy ($7) and a snack of guac and chips ($10), while the doggie needed some water and was surprised by how many treats she got to enjoy for our $5 per party entry into the dog cafe area. If I were a WiFi worker without a dog- I would cowork here just to have puppy time. As a dog parent, there were fewer dogs than most dog parks and more constraint on their movement with much more people engagement than they get at dog parks- so it's perfect for dogs who like people and dogs. If your dog doesn't like people- they can sit by your side on a bench and wear a bandana to signal not to pet or approach- though I think most people come with the intent to be social- so keep that in mind. read more

If dogs could design a café, it would probably look a lot like Boris & Horton. This is one of my favorite places in NYC because everything here is built around dogs and the people who love them. Humans are welcome, of course, but let's be honest--we're the main attraction. Over the years I've visited for several events, including an Italian Greyhound meetup and most recently the World Pup Cup. There's always something happening, whether it's movie screenings, comedy shows, trivia nights, breed meetups, adoption events, or seasonal celebrations. The atmosphere is welcoming and community-focused. It's the kind of place where you can strike up a conversation with another dog parent in line and leave with a new friend. They offer treats and food for dogs, drinks and snacks for humans, and regularly support small pet-focused businesses by hosting pop-ups and showcasing new dog-friendly products. It feels less like a café and more like a community hub for NYC dog lovers. One thing I especially appreciate is how many different dogs you get to meet during every visit. Whether you're social, shy, young, old, tiny, or enormous, there's usually a pup here who wants to say hello. If you're looking for one of the most dog-friendly destinations in New York City, Boris & Horton should absolutely be on your list. Dogba's verdict: Unlimited sniffing opportunities, plenty of fellow pups to meet, fun events year-round, and a rare place where dogs clearly run the show. read more

We came here to help a friend get a stamp in their passport. It was the first time, and the place was packed with pups and people, especially during a book event. We weren't sure what was going on. So I asked around, but the short-haired lady who was supposed to be able to help wasn't helpful. I asked her, but she didn't tell me exactly what I needed to do to get a passport at first. Someone else came to her, and she ended up helping the guy instead of us. I ended up asking someone else who wasn't the staff. Then my son was terrified of friendly big dogs, just like my little dog. Later, my friend came, and the owner or the manager stopped by. The short-haired lady was so nice to us. If it weren't for my friend, I would not come here, even though they are dog-friendly, because they weren't people-friendly. read more

The cutest cafe that combines recreational spaces for dogs. They have so many dog friendly activities and also make a pretty mean coffee that was so delicious. Love that even without a pet it feels so welcoming! read more

Loved our time at Boris & Horton! I brought my pup Frank and we both had the best day. I got work done while he hung out with his new dog friends. So chill and cozy. It's the perfect spot for anyone working from home who doesn't want to leave their dog behind. Great food, good music, and the friendliest dog-loving crowd. We stayed for hours! read more

This is one of my favorite places in nyc! I always take my pups here and we have such a great time. They have coffee/pastries but also delicious food including breakfast and lunch foods. I especially love their humus dip! Everything I've eaten is so fresh and delicious! The staff is very lovely. The space is large enough for a bunch of pups to play at once. This place truly gives you a boost of euphoria! I mean who doesn't love dogs and food?? The best! Highly highly recommend a visit! read more

If you're visiting Boris & Horton, it's because you're either looking for a place to bring your dog, or you're looking to play with other people's dogs while they work. Either way, it's a great place to visit and truly one of a kind. They've thought of almost everything - dog safe baked goods for purchase, extra protection to make sure your pup doesn't escape when someone is walking in, and even a doggy hall monitor paying close attention to see if there are any accidents to clean up. You're not visiting here for the beverages or food, so with that being said, they're okay. Not the best coffee and not the best sandwich I've had, but it's a place to bring my dog while I work and have a strong internet connection, so that's a win for me! If deciding to come check out this magical place, be sure to make a purchase in support - don't just visit for the free petting zoo and leave. read more

My dogs love it here. It's not about the food. It has good coffee and cute little sandwiches but it's about the ambience. Dogs can run free for five dollars a day. They have a great time everybody's friendly. It's a wonderful place to take your dogs. read more

The concept of this dog cafe easily makes this 5-stars for me to start off with. I truly wish there are more places like this as someone who is always looking for dog-friendly spot. The biggest different is that you pup can join you inside instead of most other spots that only allow dogs outdoors in the patio. No, I do not want to sit outside with my dog on a super hot/cold day. Anyways, there's a separate side for the cafe and another for the dog side. On the dog side, dogs roam free without leashes like a dog park. Of course be responsible and watch your dog in case anything happens. They also had a lot of doggie treats and accessories for sale, so I had to treat my dog to a Puptart ($5.50). It's super cute and my dog loved it! There's also a dog affirmation vending machine that I was obsessed with for only $1 each print. I seriously wanted to get all of them, but stopped at 3.. for now. Also, got an Iced Green Tea ($4) for myself, which was very plain. I didn't care for it too much, but will definitely return here because it's perfect place to bring my pup while I work. read more

It was such a cool place. But it gets too crowded and I suggest that if your dog doesn't like to be around other dogs don't bring them. I was afraid to let go my dog because he almost got attacked 3 x . I couldn't enjoy it . I was so scared. It was a friend's dog birthday party. I must say, great place to have it in . Just the dog situation I have a problem with . Everything else. It nice . I will return. read more

Boris and Norton. You know everyone raved about this place on tik tok! A dog cafe! And the idea is there, but in reality is it something you really want... Well think about it. Who doesn't love dogs. However a bunch of dogs in one confined place, with no open windows... that's a whole lot of smells hahaha! If you can handle it and work at the same time, this is the place to be. However if you can't, you are better bringing your hot spot to central park and sitting there. The staff are friendly and the coffee is good! You order in a separate area, away from dogs. There is also outdoor seating, which allows you to interact with dogs as they come in and out. Definitely an experience! read more

Excellent food - had a chicken wrap and a macchiato and they were delish! Service is above and beyond! I wanted a caramel macchiato but the Stbx style and they gave me the traditional style. I was ok with it but why saw the surprise on my face and they made me the other one for free! Sooo sweet! Was totally surprised by that gesture as I was happily eating and drinking away when they came with the extra coffee! Ambiance is just fun and puts a smile on your face because it's a doggy cafe after all! Would go back anytime here! Pls check them out if you haven't already! read more

As a dog lover but not ready for the responsibility of being a dog owner, this place is ideal. I always think to myself having a dog for 2 hours a day would be perfect. Maybe I have commitment issues idk. Anyways, there are few cures in life for having a rough day like a little labradoodle named Tata running up wagging his tail 100 miles an hour while you are trying to get some work done ahahah. How could I not crack a smile? I got to talking to one of the staff who was working on the floor, and it turned out to be the owner. His dog is Boris and his daughter's, Horton. Coppy's passion for his business oozes out of him and brought a smile to my face. He created this because either him or his daughter would always have to wait outside with the dogs as the other got their coffee. You have to respect this level of innovation and follow through, a true entrepreneurial spirit. The coffee is great as well, as the cold brew had me LOCKED in. read more

My partner and I were looking for a dog cafe in Manhattan and found that Boris & Horton was a popular place. We ended up going on a Saturday afternoon. Once we arrived, our order was taken in a timely manner and realized there was good seating in the cafe as well. Definitely a great place to study or do work remotely because of how spacious the area was. We got a cold brew with milk and it was very bitter...I will have to say that it wasn't the best in town. Also, the matcha lemonade was alright and towards the bottom of the drink, there were a handful of chunks that wasn't mixed correctly. I thought this was a dog cafe where there would be many pets wandering around, but I guess it's based on whether owners will bring their dogs, so not what I was expecting. A great place to bring pets any day though. Food: 3/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 read more

Visited on sunday at around noon time. The place is a cute cafe and indoor dog playground. There are many street parkings available. It's pretty easy to travel via Subway. There are some ev charging stations around the neighborhood. The place is pretty clean. The manager usually cleans right after if there is any accident. There is a double door for possible run out. Make sure you open one door at a time. There are many tables and outlets. Ordered avocado toast. It was amazing. Avocado paste tasted very fresh and well seasoned. The price is a bit high. It was 13 dollars. Cold brew tasted pretty mediocre. Typical cold brew. Overall, i really enjoyed bringing my little fur baby to this place. I could enjoy brunch and coffee and still have my fur baby to have some fun!! read more

Love this café and overall concept since I'm a huge dog/animal lover. Everything I've gotten to drink has been great and staff is friendly and accommodating. They also have fun events including comedy shows and dog parties aka "paw"ties and adoption events as well. Check them out! read more

Dog friendly cafe, offering a nice range of delicious snacks, teas, juices, smoothies and even alcoholic beverages too. I opted to sit on the bench outside and enjoy the weather. I ordered an Americano and regretted it after waiting for what felt like an eternity, It was pretty standard but good. I suggest the cold brew on tap unless you have an extra 10-15 minutes and don't mind waiting. If your looking for a chill spot to hang out with your pup while you get some work done or catch up with a friend there's plenty of seating inside too. read more

The most adorable dog café tucked into the heart of East Village -- happened upon this spot and it was such a boost of serotonin. They have the cafe split into a humans-only and dogs-only side -- the puppies are really well-behaved, albeit chaotic. It was fun to hang out and play with some dogs while waiting for our drinks, and the owners are all so friendly! I didn't love my matcha, since it felt super chalky. That being said, my friend loved his coffee drink. read more

This place is paradise for dog lovers! Came today for the second time with a friend and her dog. Ordered a bunch of food to go as I had a gift card. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious. I haven't finished what I brought home yet but the fig and jam grilled cheese and iced green tea were delicious. My friend got lemonade and an egg and cheese sandwich which she enjoyed. The place was packed and all the patrons were really nice, and the dogs of course were absolutely adorable. read more

Okay again weird my review is missing of this place. I want to say I frequent this place a lot with my bub. I used to come here during the week and chill here with some coffee and let my baby get his social time in. I came here one night for an event and it was packed. People here has been friendly, but sometimes there were weirdos that came in, so I definitely wouldn't let your guard down here. read more

We finally checked out the reopening of Boris & Horton. There's two separate rooms and entrances, one for humans and one for dogs. I liked how they have a controlled door where you can enter one at a time for the safety of dogs. When we entered, tbh, it was a bit chaotic. It was filled with both people and dogs, but more people than dogs. It was super loud in there and not a lot of space for dogs to roam around. There were a couple of people without dogs dining and felt a bit uncomfortable because my pup likes to jump up on the table and smell/eat the food, so I felt a bit uneasy because I didn't want my pup to disturb them. There was also a big group that was celebrating a birthday, which was not the dog's birthday but the owner's (I just don't think it's the right place to have one, tbh). However, I did really enjoy the cold brew and cheese danish, but dogs aren't allowed in the other room where you have to pick up the order. I felt uncomfortable leaving my pup alone in the other room, so you'll want to have someone else with you at the time to watch your dog. My pup loved eating the pup cake, which they had a variety of along with pupper cups. On the other hand, it was cool to see my pup's picture being selected to be hung on the bathroom wall. We'll definitely be back, but at a time when it's not too busy. read more

Another day, another doggie cafe. Me & my uncle love checking out dog cafes with my pup so we decided to come here on a Sunday afternoon! There are two entrances once you go inside - the cafe & then the puppy area! I liked that you couldn't open up the front door if the puppy area door was open! This was a smart concept so there are no puppies running out! We decided to go for some pastries and coffee but there are food options available such as avocado toast, sandwiches, etc. Prices were okay! The coffee was pretty good, pastries were fresh! The aesthetic altogether is super pretty, it's spacious for puppies to play & the AC was blasting which we love on a sunny summer day! The only complaint I have is that the staff was very unwelcoming / rude! It was our first time here so we asked for a menu as to which the barista rolled her eyes & told us to scan :( My uncle is old school & we love a physical hard copy menu which was right near her! This was disappointing but the puppies cheered us up shortly after haha read more

If you're a dog lover you should definitely check out this place for all different types of dogs, pasty, and coffee. I ordered a pup donut and ice cream for my shiba. He had a great time As for my party and I, we ordered avocado toast and an egg sandwich? I'm not sure what it was called. But the flavor was very heavy and had a lot of pepper. At our visit, we met 2 dogs, Zuko and Ernie. read more

From all the trips with my sister and me plus all the doggy bday parties, Emmett, our dog, has probably been here over 10x to the point now that we cannot walk by without Emmett siting in front of the entrance, begging to go inside. He treats this place like home now, roaming around in search of unknowing patrons with their undefended grilled cheese sandwiches sitting idly on alluring plates. We always end up buying him doggie treats as well. This past week, he absolutely loved the donut treat. But what doesn't he like? Definitely stop by for a cup of coffee with your dog! It does get busy so plan accordingly. read more

We walked into the cafe right next to it so called a doggy cafe with my dog, the staffs were very rude to me and my family and shouted at us "dog is not allowed here! We served human food". I feel extremely disappointed of how their staffs react to customers with dogs when they are a dog cafe business, and my dog is a service dog, also you have a clear sign board with dog portrait right in front of your door, if you don't allow dogs pls PUT UP THE SIGN! For a dog business, I am disappointed by the way how you say NO to dogs, even normal business in NYC don't treats dogs like that. I am not coming back with my family and dogs again. read more

It always brightened my day when the dogs would come over and climb into my lap while I was doing work! Please come here and support this cute coffeeshop! You can't find a shop like this anywhere else & the employees here are so welcoming and sweet! I would say some of their drinks are hit or miss though! I loved their latte but didn't enjoy their matcha latte. I hope that helps with ordering your next drink here! read more

Bark of the town! This is such a cute dog cafe, one side for humans & food, one side for pups. They have doggy treats and goods (toys, clothes, accessories, etc) and they have coffee and small bites for humans which is pretty delicious considering it's a dog cafe! The ordering system in place is super convenient for the hectic environment (order on app/site and pick up alert when ready) so you don't miss a beat with your pup! They host various events at this dog cafe such as doggy yoga/pilates, breed meetups, artist events, birthday parties and more. It's a real community focused cafe which is so lovey! Only downside is that it's pretty far from the subway so it's a bit of a trek for my pup and I Wish we lived closer to this gem of a spot! read more

As a dog owner, it's hard not to love Boris & Horton. They provide a dog-friendly space that's a nice, indoor alternative to dog parks in the area. There's also a cafe attached, with good coffee and some pretty good food! I've tried a few of their specialty drinks, like their lavender latte - delicious across the board. And I've had a few of their toast breakfast dishes, also solid. As a bonus, they serve beer and wine in the evenings. Such a great business, for dog owners and dog lovers! read more

Dogs running around, avocado toast and tasty coffee.. This place is an absolutely dream! We found Boris & Horton coming back from the Tompkins Square dog park and so happy we did! It's a restaurant on one side and a dog cafe that allows dogs inside on the other but you can get to either easily. We hung out in the cafe and the moment we walked in, there were so many happy dogs off leashes, running around playing, having the time of their lives! There's a little counter where you can order human or dog treats. I loved the lavender latte and avocado toast (super basic, but no shame!). Staffs so friendly and happy but how could you not be if you work there?! There's a cute little area too where you can pick up some sweaters for your pup or even a puppy backpack, like we did. This would be a great place to work from one afternoon when you need a change of scenery! My favorite part about this place is how much they want to help dogs without homes! They often host adoption events and part of their proceeds goes to shelters!! How great is that?! read more

We hosted our Apex for Youth volunteer fall social at Boris & Horton from 6:30-8:30pm on a Saturday night. The space is amazing with enough to host 75 people and numerous dogs. We had two restrooms and didn't even need the outdoor space. We loved working with Melissa and Sonali throughout the night, they were fantastic at getting people their drinks through all the noise & managing our tab. One of the highlights was the photo booth for attendees! We also enjoyed the treats that we could purchase on the spot for the dogs read more

Is this Heaven? It sure feels like it! This my new favorite place in New York. Ambience 12/10 How good could the ambience not be best? Happy floofs where ever you look! Even if you don't have a dog, I think the ambience is a great place to study or work because you can always take a quick break to pet some cuddly dogs. Though, I recommend some good noise cancelling headphones. Layout 9/10 The layout and setup of the store is thoughtful laid out. There's a dog free section if you don't want to be disturbed. In the doggy side there's a shopping section for supplies and organic freeze dried treats! My dogs loved them. They also have some free ones by the counter to treat the pups while you're at the cafe. If you want the undying love of dogs, grab a few and see what happens. Food 7/10 I got an avocado toast and latte. They were both good portions and tasty. Usually food at pet cafes are low quality, but I think the quality here is almost on par with a regular neighborhood cafe. Don't expect gourmet though. read more
