No outlets or public WIFI but that's fine because it's on the smaller side + only about a dozen seats. So not really a work laptop cafe but a really nice vibe to chat or read in.

That is when I came across this pastry shop. Wow!!! What an incredible experience !!!reminds me of Paris . Extraordinary service . I ordered a croissant and a coffee. Price was very fair. For nyc.They did not just hand the croissant or coffee to me. The staff took my order and then asked me to have a seat. That was a surprise to me. As I seated another staff brought over my order . They did not just put the croissant and coffee on the tray. It came with great presentation . butter , marmalade.cream , coffee , sugar etc . napkin, knife spoon etc. For me this is incredible service. Another highlight of this place. You can get free coffee. You do not need to warm your coffee you get free refills of coffee plus free cold water. FREE coffee and cold water on-a hot day hard TO find in the city. Thank you ALL for your SUPERB service. God bless.

There was a line but the staff moves so efficient it was just a short wait and well worth it. The pastries were a mix of sweet and savory. I was surprised to taste the quality of food was not diminished from the speed of service. Cheese danish was my favorite. Light and very warm.

SERVICE: Order and pickup from counter. They offer free wifi, that's always good. Has bathroom too. They have a self serve water thing too! ATMOSPHERE: Great atmosphere, cozy, modern good number of seats and people working on their laptops. Even their bathroom is nice! That's how they you know about a place. Cute bicycle wallpaper.

It's a fine experience but there's no bathroom so it lacks this feeling where you can hang out…read morebecause when the coffee hits it feels like you're being forced to go somewhere else.

I wish they had some more non-sugar, non-milk drinks - like just plain herbal tea etc - but you can't have everything. But there are always some issues. They're always out of napkins; the bathroom lock situation is tenuous; the hand dryer is broken (and there are no towels); and so on. If this place was better at maintaining a comfortable environment, it would be amazing. I hope it gets better at the basics of running a coffee shop, but I'm on the search for other places nearby.

Been to the locations in the Bay Area and Dallas, and I think I prefer them over the NYC locations…read more They're cheaper and larger. There's maybe 3 tables for 2 people each, and a small bar seating area for about 4 people. Not good for more than about 12 people to hang out in total. The staff is pretty fast and the kiosks make things run quicker too. Downside is that they do charge $.25 for a cup of water. I don't really like their signature milk tea, but their grape slush is pretty good. Everything is about $7-10, so expect to pay a bit more for your drinks.
