    Coffee bar / bar
    Ruwan J.

    stopped by here for an espresso to go. the cafe is still bustling during the day as the large space is often busy with people working on laptops and tablets. the cafe continues to be maintained well and feels airy and still very plant adorned as when i first stopped by. the vibe is chill despite the amount of people working. the interior is friendly to the eye and there's a long of different seating options IF you can find a free one. wifi is password-less. there is background music, but it is not obnoxiously loud. the espresso was okay--i think for me the coffee roast that they use here just doesn't vibe with me as it does with others. but they do have drinks beyond coffee --and they do serve food, so those will likely be options for me in the future service is relatively quick and very friendly. a nice option to have in this part of the Lower East Side--IF you can get a seat!

    Such a cute, spacious place to work, study, or read! I came down here with my book and tried one of their pastries. Although most of the seats were taken, I was able to snag an empty one at the end of their long stone table. I ordered a red bean bun, which was so great. It was so soft and comforting. The red bean was just sweet enough, not cloying. I also got a yuzu drink, which was so incredibly refreshing. Overall, I enjoyed my entire experience here, from the ambience to the food. If you're nearby, try this place!

    Service + ambiance were the same as last time. When I ordered: - Mango Coconut Matcha: good color, coconut forward, needed repeated stirring, otherwise the mango would get lost, personally didn't like the coconut flakes

    I came here to catch up with a friend over some coffee, and it was such a cute space! The cafe is attached to a gym and is a spacious environment filled with plenty of natural lighting and plants. Their menu has some influences of Hong Kong, such as their lap cheong sandwich, bolo buns, or HK milk tea. Service here is quick and polite. I got their HK milk tea and really enjoyed it. The cafe was really busy, and seemed to be a great space for doing work. They have wifi, public restrooms, but minimal outlets. I would love to come back here sometime.

    What a chill coffee shop this is. It is on the second floor of what looks to be a wall climbing gym. I saw someone post this drink the espresso tonic and I was like ohh that looks good, I want to try it. So, I did just that. Highly recommend coming here.

    Georgie's is a cafe tucked away on the second floor of a climbing gym! There's tons of natural light and open space here. I was worried that it would be challenging to get a table, but there's a huge table in the middle, some smaller one, and high-top counter space as well. You order at the register, and they call you up once your items are ready. I had the HK Milk Tea and my friend and I shared the Bo Lo Yao and Smokey Grilled Cheese. The HK Milk Tea was good, but it's hard to mess up. Nice fragrant tea and not watered down at all. The food was great here and super affordable. They warmed up the Bo Lo Yao, and it was flaky and had a subtle sweetness. The Smokey Grilled Cheese was nice too, with lap cheong jam and mozzarella on flattened bread. It was perfect to share these two items, as I think the grilled cheese is pretty greasy and would've been heavy if we had the entire thing. Super cute spot! I loved how much greenery and natural light came in through the large windows, and food was delicious as well.

    Beautiful ambiance with a decent amount of seating, but it can get busy during peak hours. There aren't many outlets and expect most of them to be taken unless you go early. Sold out of matcha, so I opted for the hojicha oat latte which was decent, but the taste of the oat milk brand they use overpowered the hojicha a bit. Was not a fan of the dine-in cups they used (I personally think the type of cup sometimes affects the taste/experience of the drink!). Prices are generally reasonable.

    Cute cafe serving a great purpose. Love the fact that they implement a lot of Chinese flavors into their menu, though I will say they are more successful in concept than necessarily execution with some of their items - their sandwich wasn't super flavorful or something I would need to get again, and their coffee is solid. However, I will say this doesn't stop this from being extremely successful with a HUGE space for you to sit and get some work done, a variety of authentic Chinese pastries and interesting menu items to keep you coming back, in a modern setting with TONS of natural lighting - it's the ideal workspace. They also have bathrooms and wifi(though for some reason I was having a lot of trouble getting on it, though the people next to me were not and many people were clearly using the wifi to get work done). Lots of plants and space to sit but it DOES get crowded on the weekends and hard to find a table. Someone snatched my spot as soon as I left kind of busy on the weekend. Definitely check this place out.

    Amazing spot in the heart of Essex. Got the pineapple bun which was AMAZING, hugs and kisses to the baker. The baristas are so friendly & made my matcha latte oat w such love & precision. The space itself is lovely, flourished with monsteras and green plants. An excellent place to catch up with a friend, a study date or to read your book. I will be back to try their milk tea.

    Brought a friend to try Georgie with me and it did not disappoint! We had iced matcha and hojicha lattes, and picked an array of sweet treats. I'm the type that if there's egg tarts, I'm getting it. It was very good, I love me a good flakey crust dan tat. We also tried the sesame and ube cookie, they were soft and chewy after being warmed. The sweet that takes the crown though was the ube banana pudding. We LOVED it so much! It was the perfect amount of ooey gooey and we could not stop raving about it. The ambiance felt like we were in a greenhouse with all the indoor plants! Very relaxing with plenty of seating and natural light.

    Decided to try Georgie's because I've been on the hunt for good Hong Kong milk tea. It's located inside a climbing gym, but it was pretty easy to find. I liked the concept and the open space was very nice with lots of greenery. All the tables were taken when I got there, it seems like it's a popular spot to work or study. I ordered the Hong Kong milk tea to go and found a seat on the stairs. The milk tea was disappointingly watery and not flavorful :(. I think this place was overhyped on social media because of the atmosphere. I will not be coming back.

    3.5 Found a free comedy show at Georgie's; was a good way to check out a new place. This cafe is located above the Vital Climbing Gym, a few blocks from Essex Market. Convenient from the F train, Delancey Station. I remember this area being vacant lots decades ago but so many new bldgs now. Enter via the gym entrance and go up the many steps. My husband said he saw an elevator. Lots of greens and concrete in the decor. Long table in the center and tables with chairs on the sides. Looked very nice. Has a view of the gym. Gives options for milk at no charge, exc. half and half for $0.50. Cold Yuzu lemonade was a syrup with water and ice added. Food and bakery items also available. A couple of restrooms in the back.

    Egg Tart
    Chi C.

    Georgie's Cafe and Bar is aesthetically pleasing at its finest, sharing an upstairs space with a recreational complex building. There's a stairwell you move up to a lot of open seating with plenty of natural lighting. I stopped by after seeing a lot of its new social media posted, and was excited for its Hong Kong style food and drink. Like a lot of other NYC cafes, nearly every table was full but I snagged a quick seat for a few bites. The Egg Tart was delicious with a light, flaky crust. I was a bit underwhelmed by the Bo Lo Bao, since it could've used a bit more butter. When ordering pastries, I definitely recommend getting them toasted or warmed up as well. The prices for food and drinks are very cheap (around $4-7 each), so that's a big plus! Staff was also engaging and friendly, and made great recommendations on which items to try. Very beautiful venue, but also I'm unsure if it's ADA accessible since I didn't happen to notice an elevator. (It could be in the back where the bathrooms are, but I didn't get the chance to investigate.) However, still a great location and food stop!

The Grapefruit Honey Chicken Wings were incredible -- super juicy with a bright, sticky citrus glaze that hits just right. The Baked Fried Rice was pure comfort food, coming out piping hot with a golden, bubbling layer of melted cheese and breadcrumbs over the top. It took a little extra time to bake, but it was 100% worth the wait. The toast here is elite. While the Classic HK French Toast is reliable, the Sesame French Toast is an absolute must-order. Slicing into it lets out this warm, rich filling that isn't too heavy or sickly sweet. Pro-tip: the toasts come out fast alongside the wings, so if you like dessert last, just order them after your main! We walked right in without waiting, and the staff kept everything running super smoothly. Highly recommend swinging by during the afternoon lull to skip the peak rush.

They do the most authentic HK styled rice noodles, fried rice, macaroni, and spaghetti, which were a fusion because of the long history of British colony.
