Eggs and Labne slapped, loved the creamy yogurt with jammy egg and crusty bread -- staff here is nice, bright ambiance!

I love Australian-style breakfasts, and whenever I'm in New York City, they're a must. Good Thanks Cafe was within walking distance of my hotel, so when in NYC...you walk. It happened to be during a brutal heat wave, and between the scorching temperatures outside and the sun pouring through the windows, it felt hot enough inside to fry an egg on my table. The avocado toast with an egg was good simple, fresh, and satisfying. Was it worth the walk? Yes. Although, if I'm being honest, the walk probably did more for my mental health than the breakfast itself. read more

Came for the first time two weeks ago and have already returned! Cute local spot with a very interesting menu. The service is a little spotty, but to be fair I only been on super busy holiday weekends. I had the breakfast Sando and avocado toast and probably preferred the sando. Would recommend, great spot for a night out debrief with friends. read more

As a native New Yorker I thought I try this place ? Bad idea. Horrible coffee in a nice size mug. The food was mediocre at best. Overpriced for what they served. Good luck to those that go read more

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

Very good place for breakfast. Avocado toast was super as was the ricotta hotcake. The ambiance is nice, good music. My Bloody Mary was spicy enough. Would definitely come back read more

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! read more

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!! read 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 read more

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. read more

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. read more

((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. read more

Good Thanks Cafe - Banana bread - Cafes Near Me - New York, New York

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. read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

I came here Saturday morning around 9:45 AM and there was a little bit of a wait as they were understaffed but they were getting tables ready for the groups of two so it was only about a 15 minute wait! The inside is cute and people aren't seated so close together like a lot of cafes in NY which was nice. I ordered the kimchi scrambled eggs which was placed on top of a really thick piece of sourdough bread and was really good! My mom got the whitefish salad on toast and likes hers too! We did wish the knives were serrated so that it would be easier to cut through the toast, though! I also ordered the espresso tonic which was refreshing but didn't come with the orange since they didn't have them. The food came out pretty quickly and I'd definitely return! read more

Really cute health forward cafe! They weren't as busy as expected, and we were able to be seated without a reservation at their "bar" hightop area. We ordered green juices, but then they told us they were out so they switched it with orange. Not a big deal but just something to note. I ordered a kale salad and it was great and fresh but slightly overdressed. The main thing was service - they almost got our bill wrong with the juice but were really nice and switched it out. It was just hard to get their attention and we were sitting around for a while. Other than that, I would definitely recommend if you are in the area! Next time if I'm nearby I would just order something else - maybe an acai bowl. It's an instagrammable spot and they do a good job with presentation! read more

Had a reservation here on a Friday afternoon for five and we were seated right away--big plus! The cafe itself is spacious and the staff was super friendly. Be aware, it's easy to miss since there aren't many signs outside; we actually walked past it before realizing. Coffee was on the sweet side and the matcha was just okay, but the food was pretty solid. Tried the avocado toast and some omelets. Only real complaint from all of us was the bread--delicious but way too thick and hard. Omelets could've used a bit more seasoning, maybe some spice. Still, a nice spot overall for a casual meal! Would go back but might ask for softer bread next time! read more

Quiet Friday morning here and I ordered the "two eggs on toast" To-Go and I chose the scrambled option. (They had poached and fried as other options). The eggs were really soft and not dry at all, I like the unique circular method, makes typical scrambled eggs abit more interesting. A thick and airy sourdough bread base went perfectly with this. The only issue was the salt was very unevenly distributed... one part of the egg had almost no salt and the center part was almost too salty to enjoy. Overall, would come back here and try other menu items! read more

I don't normally go to a brunch but can say this place was spot on for it. Service was attentive, ambiance was lively and the food was filling and yummy for its price. I had the harissa eggs which had a slight kick to them but a tad sweet at the same time. Very delicious and paired well with the sourdough. Would come back again to try something new :) read more

The food itself is a 4.5/5 - very tasty and fresh. However, the pricing and sizes are not worthwhile so I wouldn't come back. read more

Good Thanks Cafe - Broccolini Farro Bowl - Cafes Near Me - New York, New York

Definitely a solid 4.5/5!!! Easy to walk in without a reservation on a Thursday afternoon, and the place was pretty full but did have a seat for 2! The menu isn't big at all and still has so many appealing options. I was torn but ended up getting the kimchi scrambled eggs ($16)and the blue bowl ($15) - honestly these seemed so straight forward but each element of each dish was so good! The kimchi scrambled eggs were so soft and fluffy and was served on top of a hefty but light sourdough bread. I usually love sourdough bread but have a grievance of it sometimes being difficult to slice - this was not the case at all! There is also an arugula salad that's delicious, and the dish itself is garnished with a hummus/labneh creamy sauce. To be honest the kimchi didn't do much for me - I could do without. The blue bowl was super tasty and aesthetic - it was a delicious smoothie topped with shredded granola and fruit. Would definitely get again. Really cute experience with the exception of the would be influencer sitting next to us that spread all her belongings out on the shared wooden bench that served as a seat for 3 tables but that's ok. read more

Checked out Good Thanks for the first time and instantly fell in love with how quaint this place was. It's a local cozy spot that offers the best brunch items. I ordered the Bacon and Egg sandwich which was delicious. The blue acai was super pretty but i think a regular acai would've been a better option for me. The toast paired so well with the sweet blueberry on top, and it had a such a perfect thick toasted bread. read more

I would highly recommend reservations if you're trying to come on the weekend for brunch, didn't seem too difficult to make a few days beforehand.

Short Review: Charming little brunch spot in the Lower East Side -- but definitely reserve a table if you can! The space is pretty compact, and we ended up waiting 45 minutes. Luckily, the weather was decent, so we snagged one of the tiny outdoor tables. We ordered the whitefish sandwich and the kimchi scrambled eggs, both on sourdough -- absolutely delicious and full of flavor. Service could've been a bit more attentive, especially with the 20% NYC tip era haha Overall, a solid brunch option and worth checking out if you're in the neighborhood! read more

I was back in NY and that meant that I could come here for brunch again. I was so glad that I did. They still have my favorite on the menu - the kimchi scramble and I add avocado. They didn't have the shaken espresso but they did have an iced vanilla chai with espresso and wow that was so so delicious. My favorite new thing that I tried was their banana bread. It comes warm and with a brown salted butter. It was truly one of the best things I've had. The ambiance remains cute and cozy. Service can be tough when they're busy but staff is always nice. Can't wait to come back again soon! read more

I recently went back to Good Thanks for brunch, and it was thankfully as good as I remember it! My friends and I came in on a Saturday at around 1, and were seated instantly. Our waiter was great, the music inside was everything (early 2000s hits!), the food was served promptly! We ordered the eggs and labne and chickpea curry scramble again, and added the special french toast. Eggs and Labne: 5/5 Chickpea Curry Scramble: 5/5 - Even better than I remember, and my favorite dish of the three. The curry is phenomenal. French Toast: 5/5 - Great french toast, but I'd be wary if you're not the biggest sweets person! Good Thanks feels like a quintessential NYC brunch spot, and I'm so happy to have had another great experience :') read more
