    lavender oat milk chai latte
    Andrielle G.

    visited ivy cafe to write for my substack publication for a few hours. the cafe is spacious, with convenient little nooks that are perfect for solo work or a cute getting to know each other date. i had a iced chai lavender latte with oat milk that was delicious enough to double back for a second. i ordered the ivy chicken sandwich with fries and the star of the show: a side of ivy sauce. the service was chill, they don't make you feel rushed or pressured to leave at all while still being attentive. my only issue is the amount of flies floating around, it was distracting and i had to use a napkin to cover my food as i worked. fingers crossed they fix the fly issue soon because that chai latte was delicious!

    Payma offered me the box upon request to advance pack away half of brunch that will potentially become my dinner

    I had such a great experience at this café! I ordered a burger with tater tots and everything was…read moreabsolutely on point. The burger was fresh, juicy, and not greasy at all just really well made. The tater tots were crispy and delicious without feeling oily, which I really appreciated. The atmosphere was just as good as the food comfy, relaxed, and full of a really nice vibe that makes you want to stay and enjoy your time. On top of that, the service was amazing. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot I'd go back to!

And I gotta say, the bartender is doing work. He's the only one working and the whole place is filled up and he manages it very well. They have food and drinks, mocktails included. I love it here. It's very cozy and homey. But just remember to be courteous, that this is a business so it's okay to do work here but if you're gonna be chilling for a while make sure you're getting some drinks every hour or tipping the 'tender. Also careful with some of the hot drinks they can be really.... hot. I burnt the roof of my tongue on my hot cider drink.

You think they are going to just hand you your dreams? I don't want a treat. I didn't earn a treat. A black coffee is like running on an empty stomach. It puts you in a different mindset. Survival mode. On the hunt. I gotta earn the food. Imagine what they would say about me if they saw me drinking a dirty chai latte in the morning. Imagine what I would say about myself. I didn't earn that. I need to stay close to God. All this to say I tend to stay far away from hyped up coffee shops but my big bro wanted to hit Rhythm Zero, and he is big bro for a reason, so I obliged. I entered into a small space that feels vast. High ceilings. Minimal furniture. Huge Renaissance-style art on the walls. An environment tailor made for you to lose sight of yourself and order their $8 Coco Americana. I won't lie. I thought about it. A moment of weakness. "It's just an americano that swaps out standard water for chilled coconut water..." No. I went to the bathroom and looked myself in the mirror. COWARD! Who do you want to be? I walked out. Bathroom door? Slammed. Large cold brew? Ordered. Chase Sapphire Preferred card? tapped. Small win? Earned. IG @johnny.novo Tiktok @jnov__ Substack @johnnynovo

    Unfortunately, I've never hated a coffee shop more than this. Perfect for transplants in the sense…read morethat the place felt so cold, sterile, and unwelcoming. It's not giving community coffee shop, it's giving gtfo as quick as you can. The decor and vibe just felt so off. Giving coffee shop art studio museum but in the worst way possible? Went with a friend and we both immediately felt a bad energy. The person taking our order was just a little stand off ish. We just wanted to get our drinks and get out as quick as possible. We got the blackberry matcha and a latte. You're not going for the matcha, because the matcha flavor isn't really there ~ the blackberry was fine, super sweet though. Had 3 espresso shots in the latte yet it was still somehow so watered down and had an odd aftertaste. Big yikes overall, we could've dealt with the weird pretentious vibes if the coffee was actually good. Only upside is TakuSando is a block away. EDIT: For Bri Can totally understand if people have off days, maybe the baristas were having a bad day, it happens. Either way, the review reflects what we experienced. We had heard great things but unfortunately felt unwelcome from the moment we ordered, whether intentional or not ~ the energy felt cold to us and that changed the experience. & we just didn't love the drinks. You're def right, Rhythm Zero just isn't our cup of tea and that's totally fine. Hope yall continue to do your best and serve the fan base you have :) Love small businesses, don't love a weird Yelp guilt trip (which seems like a pattern for you across all 3 locations...)

The staff were super friendly as well. Loved the ambiance, very eclectic, and the record player was a nice touch. The band, Zamra, was beautiful and moving. I ordered the zaatar man'oushe with hummus with a chai, all made fresh, and it was very delicious. The chai was pretty light but had a nice fragrance.

It provides the perfect setting for Barzakh Cafe, a social club/gathering spot of sorts for the pan-Maghreb community across New York. We came for the couscous celebration on July 4th. The owner is Mauritanian, and the couscous reminded me of the ones I've eaten in the northern reaches of Senegal, with tender potatoes, carrots, and cabbage. I had been hoping for something closer to kosksi, but the dish was enjoyable nonetheless. We sat outside in the casually-laid out backyard while hearing songs blending French and Maghrebian Arabic emanating from inside. Barzakh also hosts events from outside the region, including qawwali nights and the like. It is a rare unique space in the neighborhood.
