    Solid spot for sandwiches, but drinks could use more consistency. Ambience (4/5): Cozy and casual, a nice place to relax or grab lunch. Food (4/5): Sandwiches are excellent -- fresh ingredients and great flavor balance. Value (3/5): Slighty more pricy for the portion and quality. Service (4/5): Friendly and fairly quick. Drinks (3/5): Inconsistent -- sometimes too sweet, other times lacking flavor.

    Lots of bagels and other good food!

    This place was so convenient during my first stay in NYC! It was across from my hotel and the service never took long. Everyone was friendly even during busy hours. I really enjoyed their bagel sandwiches and cannoli! The coffee was good. I mostly had the Americano but occasionally I tried a latte. There usually was seating depending on the time of day. I felt like it was a cozy cafe on the corner. Just wholesome vibes. Nothing crazy aesthetic but I'll forever remember it as my comfort cafe during my first time in NYC.

    [November 2024] This was our first stop on our NYC day trip and boy was I famished. This powdered sugar and cinnamon-dusted waffle was absolute perfection and honestly didn't need any syrup, but my sweet tooth wouldn't allow me to not drizzle on just a little. __ I eat. @f.hux I thrift. @DCthriftish

    I hat a cute picturesque little place in midtown. Perfectly & conveniently located on 9th. I came on a cold but sunny day and it was super busy even @1 in the afternoon. Sooooooo many choices! Thank goodness my hotel is nearby!

    The service was fast and efficient but it was pretty porch for what it was. I think I would have rather gone somewhere else for sure where they actually serve you and what not. If you are looking for something quick this is definitely the place, the only thing I would consider is the prices. The drinks were okay too. Nothing too special but will get the job done if you are thirsty/ hungry. The place had okay seating. You sit wherever there is space so nothing too crazy or out of the ordinary for a cafe.

    Chicken Pesto Sandwich

    I came here for a quick lunch on New Years Day. There weren't many restaurants open, so I randomly decided on this spot. For a cafe in this area, there was a decent amount of seating, which I was happy to see. At first I was going to order some oatmeal, but they didn't have any available. Instead, we got Chicken Pesto Sandwiches. The chicken was cooked nicely and wasn't too chewy or overcooked. I wouldn't go out of my way for this spot, but considering they were open on the holiday, I'd say they're a fairly reliable spot!

    Cannoli & cheesecake

    Cannoli tasted a bit off for me, but the coffee was okay. Nice spot, just not my favorite.

    Blueberry and Nutella pancakes hot coffee and vanilla latte

    Banana Nutella and blueberry pancakes were good. Ordered the platter but was given pancakes only despite clearly asking for the platter. No effort to fix it--would've had to pay another $20 after spending $50. Latte was okay, hot coffee was great. Service is fast.

    I'm a croissant lover; met a friend who is also a croissant lover for coffee and croissants this…read moremorning. BUT, my husband and I recently took a trip to Paris and I also love pain aux raisins. To our delight, Cafe Bilboquet has those too, so my friend and I each had a small coffee and a pain aux raisins. The pastry was as good as any that my husband and I had in Paris! I've also had lunch here with a couple of other friends in recent months. They have a good variety of pretty authentic French sandwiches and some quiches, eggs, etc. Not inexpensive, but the food is top-notch. You order at the counter, then move up to the cashier, tell them what your order is and pay for it. If you're lucky, as we were around 9:45 this morning, you'll get one of the little round tables where you can sit and chat and relax; in good weather there are some tables outside as well; a lovely boulangerie or patisserie experience!

    Cafe Bilboquet caught my eye as I meandered toward Central Park. I couldn't make out it's name, but…read moreI saw many customers coming out with coffees and pastries, so I decided I must try it. Upon getting closer to the door, I learned it's part of Le Bilboquet restaurant on the same block. It wasn't too crowded when I visited on a Tuesday mid-afternoon. Every table except 1 was full, but most people were heading outside on such a beautiful day with their drinks and pastries. The cafe is very cute and French. They have so many pastries I couldn't decide, so I ordered a pain au chocolat and tea. They serve Harney & Sons teas. This is a lovely spot, and I'll return to try more.
