    Seating
    Navin M.

    This place is really good for eating healthy, tasty food, even though I'm not vegan or gluten-free, I really appreciated it. The servers were friendly and the space is neat and well designed with plenty of places to sit. I enjoyed the Caesar salad quite a bit and enjoyed the zucchini tartlet although it would be nice if it had more zucchinis and less mushrooms! The food left me feeling good after eating. Overall, a great spot that I really enjoyed and plan to go back to for a quick bite.

    Got the blue skies smoothie and it's amazing. 10/10 recommend. Everything is healthy and 100% organic

    Love this place! Dairy, gluten, refined sugar free! No guilt eating this food. It's fresh and delicious. Can't wait to go back and try more things!

    18 greens smoothie
    Lizzy L.

    Love the mission and the vibe of goodsugar! From the reusable mason jars to the biodegradable straws, fun napkins, homemade almond milk, and the complete lack of plastic, it's clear that the founder cares about good food and sustainability. I love that everything is completely vegan with no additional refined sugar. I think the sweetness level in their juices and smoothies is perfect and really allows the flavors of the fruits and veggies to shine through. My favorite drinks are the blue skies smoothie and the 18 greens smoothie with a banana added. The kale salad is amazing too! It's perfectly marinated and the goji berries add a nice crunch. Definitely my go-to for health smoothies and quick, delicious vegan food!

    Blue Skies Smoothie (~$11)
    Aya E.

    Ordered: Blue Skies Smoothie (~$11): almond butter, vanilla, banana, pea protein, blue spirulina, hemp seeds, cinnamon, maple, homemade almond milk Aya's take: I've driven past goodsugar a couple times and the vibrant colors really caught my attention. I was in the area again and decided to actually give it a try. For what you're getting - a tasty smoothie filled with nutrients and is nonpasteurized - it's a pretty good price point. You also get to keep the mason jar and can bring it back for discounts on your next drink. The Blue Skies had a great blend of flavors with none overpowering the other. It was surprisingly very filling too. I would probably try one of their juices if I come back. Good try!

    Savory food menu

    It may look like a simple juice bar at first glance, but goodsugar is much more than that. Their food is top-notch: extremely fresh, flavorful, and most importantly healthy in a way that is virtually impossible to find anywhere else in NYC. Every item had ingredients listed, and they are high-quality ingredients. Everything is organic, seed-oil free, and refined sugar free. Many items such as some of the baked goods are oil-free(!!); others have olive oil only; a few items unfortunately still contain coconut oil. The hot food items like the burritos are made with extra virgin olive oil. We devoured the happy muffin (made with cacao nibs), the beauty berries muffin, the pecan bliss bar, the peanut butter cookie, and the chocolate chip cookie (all oil-free). The muffins are the best of the baked goods but every item was awesome in its own way. On the savory side, the must-order item is the sofrito burrito. By far the best vegan burrito in the city. It's hearty and fantastic, with adzuki beans, wild rice, and sweet potato. It comes with cashew queso. The downtown burrito is the burrito in distant second place; it's filled with a mash of chickpeas and potatoes that is hot and tasty but falls short of the sofrito burrito. It comes with a side of homemade salsa that is felicitous. The zucchini tartlet was downright weird - more accurately described as a mushroom tart with zucchini garnish. The juices are awesome (try the Rude Awakening if you dare). Also, they are entirely free of single-use plastic. Just about everything is served in a cute mason jar, and they offer a rebate in their rewards program if you return the jar. I hope they expand to more locations. In a city where vegan restaurants are commonplace, goodsugar stands out for actually acknowledging that people nowadays care about what's inside their food, not just about the taste.

    blue skies smoothie
    Ashley Z.

    I chanced across goodsugar during their opening days during my walk back from work, and being a sucker for overpriced smoothies in the city (a la juice press), of course I had to step in. I ordered the blue skies smoothie, which was made to order and given to me in a cute mason jar and a biodegradable boba-type straw. My smoothie was thick and creamy and delicious, without any actual dairy. Took it to Central Park to enjoy. Overall, really like the concept of this store. It feels very clean and organic inside, wish they had some more nutritional information about their menu items. The jars are nice, and if you bring them back (you don't even have to buy something the second time), you get some sort of credit/reward system that builds up. Looking forward to trying more smoothies or green juices post workout class! It's definitely overpriced but what do you expect.

    Great new business. I can't wait to go back. Posted 05/07/23

    Goodsugar has opened their first cafe on Third Avenue and 69th Street in Manhattan. I can't wait to return. I had already eaten and my iPhone battery was getting low so I can't wait to take photos. If you check out their website you can learn about their environmental and nutritional benefits. I really appreciate their philosophy when everyone is always pushing me to eat so much protein! I love the wall Decor and the place is comfortable if you arrive early. I felt like I was back in Berkeley California during my hippie days! Please visit and write your reviews! I just now added goodsugar to Yelp. I think you're going to like this place. Unless you're a carnivore!

    Vegan banana bread- yummy! Must try
    Natalie K.

    Goodsugar is a fun new vegan edition to the UES neighborhood! It is a juice + smoothie + salad shop also with yummy vegan baked goods! I tried the vegan banana bread ($5) made with fairly simple ingredients (almond flour, maple syrup, buckwheat flour, bananas of course) and it was AMAZING!! I am an absolute banana bread lover, and have tried several vegan banana breads, and this is definitely up there. I would love to try their other baked goods as well- I saw muffins and cookies. :) I also got the vegan caesar salad with roasted chickpeas ($12)- this was ok. I think it could have used a bit more pizzazz such as avocado, maybe mushroom "bacon", tomatoes. The herb seasoning was a bit too strong. But it was still yummy and a nice generous portion. I added a few more add ins at home to boost up the salad. Some other menu items I saw included a vegan burrito. Didn't try any of the juices- it is pretty standard market market price of $9-$10. Smaller "booster" shots (e.g. turmeric shots) are ~$4-5 I think. I don't think cold press juices are a new concept, but they do come in mason jars and it says if you bring back the jar you get a credit. The vibe of the store is really cool- not sure how to describe it. Graphics and colors are bold, with a lot of "pro-plant-based" messaging. Not much seating- it is meant to be a grab & go place probably. Overall, I would go back for sure for the vegan treats.

    The most delicious bar, I think it's the Keto Energy Bar.

    The dessert here is so inviting and pretty. Especially the mousse based ones that look like fruits…read more I got the mango, orange, and the one that looks like a mushroom. The orange has a base made of chocolate Rice Krispies. All of them have more fruity filling than the mousse. They are very fragile. I recommend eating there if you can. Finding can be a challenge because it's busy and there aren't many seats. I got mine to go just to be taken to the park across the street . The mushroom kind are totally ruined. It has strawberriy jelly and it was a mess. The orange one was almost ruined too. The mango has some diced mangoes. I devoured three of them instantly. Definitely come back to try more.

    Yummmy!!! What a cute and unique dessert boutique! So many choices but what makes this place stand…read moreout are its adorable and colorful mousse delicacies. The inside was packed with folks! There was no place to sit down because of how busy it was but the staff kept the line moving quick enough. The place still seemed reasonably stocked with their desserts and treats, despite the late afternoon time that I arrived. I ordered 4 different treats to go and they're packed in small box individually. Unfortunately, they didn't quite stay intact during my trek back to my hotel and were tumbled around in the boxes. Nonetheless, the taste and flavors held up well and even after a few days in the fridge. The yuzu daisy has this vivid pastel yellow-pink base and adorable gelatinous yellow gem atop a white flower. The yuzu gives a subtle infusion of tart that is balanced out by the light delicate skin texture of the rest. Sitting atop a thin round rice crispy. I loved the red mushroom one which is a creamy pink mousse inside the cap. The stalk is a thin porcelain-white chocolate light base also filled with a rich cream. Adjacent are two cute little tree nuts. The orange and mango have such vivid colors and are aesthetically pleasing too. Just like the previous ones, their delicate chocolate exterior houses a rich tarty mousse-y filling. I think the mushroom has a better balance and variety of flavors. Although I don't eat mousse treats often, I look forward to trying some of the other ones in the future, like the blueberry, banana and cloud.

    This used to be my favorite Italian bakery. I haven't been to this bakery in years like ten years…read moresince I was a teenager. Today I decided to make a special trip to go here to grab a few goodies. I forgot how small the place was and how low the ceilings were. That wasn't an issue though. The place was nice and cakes were stacked neatly. What was surprising to me is that they don't have any cookies laid in the front display. It's all placed in the back almost hidden. I was deeply disappointed with their cookie selection. It was deeply surprising that they don't sell the butter cookies that had jam in the middle and dipped with chocolate on one side with sprinkles. I did ask the clerk and even showed him a pic of what I was looking for and he said they never sold them. They only had the linzer cookies and they didn't look so good. They also did not have the lobster tail. They did have the sfogliatelle which they also called a lobster tail. I thought they were not the same? Some bakeries sell both and they are definitely not the same. I did end up buying one of their sfogliatelle with cream and some rugelachs. The sfogliatelle was good but the rugelachs tasted slightly underbaked. It did taste fresh though unlike many I've had in other bakeries. However, for $28 per pound, I wouldn't get it again. For those not having lobster tail and not having the Italian cookies, I will have to give Veniero's a low rating. I never thought an Italian bakery would not carry staples. Very disappointed. I need to find another Italian bakery now.

    What a delightful surprise! After working late and attending an event after work, one of my…read morecoworkers suggested we stop here because they loved their cookies. I had never heard of the place before, but I was happy to give it a try -- and I'm so glad I did. From the moment you walk in, the experience feels special. The store has two beautiful double doors that create such a grand entrance, and once inside, you immediately feel the energy. The place was bustling with people, and everyone seemed happy and excited -- from the customers to the team behind the counter and the baristas. The cookie case was overflowing with so many amazing choices that it was hard to decide! I ended up getting the Rocky Road cookie, a Double Chocolate Chip cookie, a Two Chip Chocolate Chip cookie, and a blueberry muffin to enjoy for breakfast the next morning. The service was absolutely impeccable, and everyone I interacted with was warm, friendly, and delightful. When I got home, I had half of the Rocky Road cookie with a cup of tea, and it was incredible. The cookie was large and chunky but still perfectly enjoyable -- not heavy or overwhelming. It literally melted in my mouth. The chocolate was rich and smooth, and every bite was just delicious. The next morning, I tried the blueberry muffin, and it was just as impressive. It was light and airy, not overly sweet like many blueberry muffins can be. It truly felt like a breakfast pastry. The blueberries tasted fresh and burst with flavor in every bite. I will definitely be back for more cookies. This was such a wonderful find, and I'm so happy my coworker introduced me to this place!

I will say that I didn't think I would like this cookie at all since usually I like thinner crunchier cookies. But holy cow!! I was blown away by the crispy edges and the interior wasn't too soft gooey either. The chocolate and walnuts added to the cookie enhanced the flavor even more! For such a big cookie the middle was cooked perfectly. Very chunky and sizable cookie too so I ate it throughout the day rather than one sitting!!
