    Salsa Macha Eggs and Lemon Ricotta with Blueberry pancakes

    We got Salsa Macha eggs and I'm clear that it's one of the BEST breakfast dishes I've ever had. It's the BEST breakfast I've had in NY. How do they make that chili oil? And the 6 min Jammy eggs were PERFECT!

    Cozy cute little Breakfast and Brunch spot on Orchard Street in the Lower Eastside area. Very yummy delicious choices. I am a fan of the Kimchi Scramble eggs. I would love to figure out how they get the scramble eggs so perfectly rounded and swirly! :) Gaining popularity of late it can get rather crowded and busy on the weekends. Thus, reservations are strongly suggested. They also serve Green Juice, Organic wines, delicious coffees, cappuccinos, teas and smoothies to drink. **Open Daily - 8AM to 4PM ** Thank you!

    Absolutely loved good thanks cafe!! The ambience is so cozy, warm and staffs are welcoming. The banana bread is a must, hands down the best banana bread I've ever had and the butter that comes with it is pure perfection. Their avocado toast with egg is also delicious. It's a little on the pricey side but the portion is generous and the egg is cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be back for more!!

    Service: 4.2/5 Food: 4.5/5 Price: $$ ($20-30) Simple, clean aesthetic with classic Australian brunch vibes- chatter + music in the background. A bustling café with decent turnover, so no wait for a solo diner on an early Saturday afternoon. Good for groups not in a rush, as I think others had to wait a few minutes, + the food does take a little while to come out. Fairly clean bathroom, unfortunately, there's only one. Double check your bill, some items might have updated prices. What I Ordered: - Green Juice: refreshing, a lot of sediment at the bottom - Kimchi Scramble: kimchi indeed a little spicy, good balance with the labna, perfect soft scrambled eggs - Salad that came with the scramble: did not care for it, not an arugula person

    Saw good reviews came here to give it a try. I have to say I loved my chicken sandwich and my fries. That I would give a 5 star. The pork sandwich was a little bit plain. The kimchi eggs are done well. Honestly very simple menu but it was done very well.

    Curry scramble

    Great ambiance, great service, and like the idea behind this curry scramble but needed more seasoning

    ((4.25 stars)) a friendly warm Aussie cafe planted on Orchard Street on the Lower East Side is Good Thanks Cafe. clean, brightly lit, casual interior that is well maintained. there is a good amount off seating for pairs or groups looking to sit, eat, and have a conversations. even on a sleep weekday morning, Good Thanks Cafe was fairly busy with people enjoying the eats and drinks, here. stopped in here to grab a coffee...thought this cafe offers a coffee and tea menu...this is very much a cafe (it is not a coffee shop pretending to be a cafe). the draw really is the food menu and the friendly vibes. the coffee that i got was solidly good, but the real experience is having breakfast, brunch, or lunch with friends and/or family. the service is friendly. would definitely head here when i looking to enjoy eats with a group in a casual ambiance.

    This place was recommended by a friend to try while I am in NYC. I'll be brief, the food was great, the coffee drinks were delicious, and the banana bread was excellent. The location was also clean and well lit. The only reason that this place won't get 5 stars is because their service wasn't the greatest. I went on a Wednesday morning which was not busy, but besides sitting us down and taking our order we were not checked on once. So, it's a great place to try because of the food, but the service was not great, maybe you have a different experience. A smile goes a long way.

    Broccolini Farro Bowl
    Kathy M.

    Good Thanks Cafe caught my eye because of the swirly scrambled eggs which looked so asethetic. After eating my way through NY for almost a week, I needed something healthy-ish. Many reviewers recommended the broccolini farro bowl which looked promising. I arrived around 9am on a Saturday and there were still some open tables. When 9:30-10am rolled around, there was a line out the door. I was tempted to order the eggs but I went with the broccolini farro bowl instead. This dish looked so simple but it was absolutely delicious! It was packed with flavor with a hint of spice and umami flavors. It was topped fried onions and an avocado salsa verde. I should have ordered an extra poached egg but regardless, this dish exceeded my expectations. I was on a solo trip so I couldn't try more dishes but I would love to return to try the others!

    Almond latte
    Francesca A.

    It was excellent, fresh, healthy and flavorful. I had the kale salad, my daughters had egg dishes, good coffee and matcha lattes. The server was lovely and patient with a good sense of humor. Very close to our hotel and I'm very likely to pop back in my next visit to NY.

    We stumbled upon this café when we couldn't get a seat elsewhere. But this was the best find! I think it's best to make a reservation because although we usually walk in, they get very busy and it's hard to say whether you'll get a table right away. Service is good and food comes out fast. Everything on the menu is delicious, but I especially love the harissa eggs. Most of the dishes come with their amazing sourdough.

    Bill comes with a post card
    Tanya A.

    Came here on a Saturday morning before setting up shop to grab a sit down breakfast with my friend. The staff was quick to greet us and attend us. Started off with a vanilla latte, my friend got a black sesame Matcha both were rich and creamy. We both ordered the two eggs and toast on sourdough. I asked for salt, pepper & ketchup before I got my order but didn't really need it because the eggs were well seasoned. They were fluffy, warm & perfectly made. I give this spot a 5 stars because the staff was kind, location was great, seating was available l, the breakfast was a good, they had gluten free options and no long wait.

    poached eggs on toast
    Jamie W.

    Stopped by Good Thanks Café on a rainy morning--partly because it was close to our hotel, but also because we'd eaten here once before and had a great experience. Happy to say it still holds up! I had the açaí bowl and it was perfect--refreshing, not overly sweet, and beautifully topped. Exactly what I was craving. My husband went for the poached eggs and added bacon and avocado (heads up: they're $5 each as add-ons). The eggs came out a bit tough--not the runny texture you hope for with poached--but he still ate and enjoyed them. When the server asked how everything was, he mentioned it. To their credit, they immediately offered to bring out another order, which we appreciated even though we declined. A thoughtful response. Despite all the tables being full, the space didn't feel cramped. There's a calm openness to the layout, and the ambiance is relaxed and welcoming. It's a lovely little spot to start your day, rain or shine. Would definitely come back--especially for that açaí bowl.

    Is there usually a line-up?

    All depends on day and time, I have been there a couple of times, and did not have to wait, but once I was alone and the 2nd time there were only 2 of us both times I got there a bit later in the day.

We got the Banter Bowl, which includes pickled carrot, cabbage, watermelon radish, cucumber, edamame, avocado, quinoa, and miso ponzu dressing. You have a choice of meats, so we chose the grilled chicken. Second, we ordered the falafel bowl that includes three falafels, pickled onions, avocado, cucumber, whipped garlic feta, kale salad, romesco, and Za'atar dressing that had a delicious flavor. However, our ultimate favorite had to be the Thai Crunch Wrap with sweet potato fries. It was fairly busy, and our drinks took a while to come, but the food arrived shortly after. The next time I'm back, I will be sure to reorder the Thai crunch wrap. If you have food allergies, they are extremely accommodating and have numerous vegan/vegetarian/GF.

It was a hearty portion - super fresh and flavorful, and honestly more than I could finish (not a complaint!). I also ordered a Diet Pepsi with grenadine; they don't carry Diet Coke, which I almost docked a point for, but the mix was unexpectedly delicious. Highly recommend it. My date ordered the hanger steak and said it was absolutely amazing. Only hiccup: his first glass of wine he got came out hot... like, microwave-level warm. Fortunately, the server brought a new (cold) one and the rest of the meal was smooth sailing. Service was friendly, the vibe was homey and relaxed, and the food was solid across the board. Would definitely come back, especially for that salad and another round of grenadine magic.

The inside looked really nice with some nice pictures on the wall and lots of space for seating. They also have a downstairs that has a bar and plenty of seating. We just ordered a few Aperol Spritz and chilled at the bar. The drinks tasted really good. Hard to mess that up but you never know. They had music playing from something in the background which was really good. The bartenders were alway asking if we needed anything so that was good. We didn't order any food but the plates that we saw looked really good. Definitely a place you need to check out if your looking for a cool spot to drink and get some bites to eat. They also have a good happy hour and from the looks of it a nice brunch with bottomless mimosas. Have to come check out this place if your in town or live near the area.

In my rarely treading over to the…read moreeast side these days and wanting to avoid Grand Central I searched a little through google maps what was nearby Murray Bro Hill/Kips Bay area and this spot popped up and I remembered wanting to check out their brunch but never did. It's $25 for unlimited drinks plus food by the way. Which is sad is a deal these days. Anyway, their happy hour is solid enough for a Monday and was meeting up with a friend I hadn't seen in over a year. Place is actually very cute. There are no tvs which I appreciate and the paneling of the walls and decor with all the flowers is quite tasteful. Happy hour deals 4-7pm Mon-Fri & all night Thursday apparently: Aperol Spritz $8, Hugo Spritz $9, Paloma $10, Mules $9, Draft Beers (except Guinness) $7, House Wine $9. As well as 2 Appetizer Bites for $19.95. Not the best but not the worst. I'm normally not a Spritz kind of gal. I think watering down prosecco or wine is heinous. But it was a Monday and I didn't exactly feel like powering down into happy hour so Aperol Spritz it was which switched to a Modelo later. It was the perfect drink situation on a god awful hot as hell day. We also ordered the fish tacos and what initially were the curry fries but they brought out the Greek fries. I wasn't mad about it. Honestly was torn between the two and I don't send food back unless something really bad happened. But it was essentially a side of Caesar salad dressing with feta cheese and generous amount of herbs on a very sparse and frugal amount of crispy standard cut fries. Now I know why it's a 2 for $20 deal. The tacos were 3 in an order which I guess is typical. They weren't bad but nothing stood out to me. I'd come for the drinks or try something else on the menu.

I can add mustard to every bite instead of all over the sandwich. My son and I split a pastrami and the beef brisket together to be able to sample at least two types of meats. My wife ordered the half corned beef sandwich with a bowl of French onion soup, so we got to sample a bite of each of those as well. Surprisingly we finished everything and still had room for a home made strawberry cheesecake which was amazing. If I'm being honest, I liked it better than juniors and you can read more of my review of Junior's cheesecakes on their Yelp page.
