Maple latte
Stephanie W.

Barista was very friendly and helpful. It's a nice and cozy coffee shop with a couple of seats inside. I tried their maple latte and it was really good! One of my faves so far! $5.75 and they use coffee beans from sweet leaf and they have a shelf of their sweeteners on the wall. They also play some music and they have WiFi as well!

Fantastic and solid coffee! Really enjoyed the oat milk latte and especially the rocket fuel which is a special drink made of condensed cold brew, chicory, and a bit of maple syrup. The rocket fuel was a refreshing drink and had a nice subtle smokey taste and not sweet surprisingly despite having maple syrup. What makes this cafe stand out from most coffee shops in the city is how cozy and welcoming the setting is. The interior and the background music make reading, working or hanging out with friends pleasant and possible. The seating options are particularly designed to be comfortable. We spoke to the owner who designed and built everything which is so impressive! One could really tell the attention to detail she put in from every lamp choice to even the tiles and wallpaper in the bathroom. Definitely returning when around the neighborhood!!

A fantastic coffee shop in Greenpoint! The coffee is excellent and is locally roasted from Sweetleaf. The decor is cozy, well designed, and a great place to work with both free WiFi and seating. The owners are super friendly too! My daily go-to in the morning for cold brew. Definitely try the iced teas as well!

Cozy window nook!

Kaleidoscope has the best espresso I've had in NYC. I got back from a few weeks in Italy last year looking for great espresso and tried many bougie places in Manhattan that were just bland or burnt. This place has delicious tart espresso you can drink straight. They also bake fresh pastries, one of the best choc croissants I've had plus they sell one filled with apricot jam that's so good. Their other drinks are amazing too, cold brews, cold raspberry tea, they make the perfect balance of mocha, pumpkin spice, etc with espresso you can still taste (they made me a pumpkin spice cortado, my fav). The baristas are the owners and they have lovely personalities, a neighborhood feel. Also the space inside is a major vibe, cozy nooks, a ton of real plants, and fun decor including even the bathroom wallpaper! OH and a final note, everything is sustainable including their straws which are made of agave (!) and not those crappy paper straws.

Menu board (but they can & will make tons of other stuff if you ask)

My partner and I chose to get a rocket fuel and cold brew - the cold brew was strong but not too acidic.

This place definitely lives up to the hype! The food here is amazing, and when I say food, I mean…read moremore than just the baked goods. Starting off with the baked goods, the brown butter corn cake may be the single best pastry I've had in my life. It has a great crispy exterior and a super moist and decadent interior that just makes it the best pastry you could ever ask for. I also think they have one of the best chocolate chip cookies in the city, and their cinnamon roll is light yet executed perfectly. In addition to their pastries, their sandwiches are amazing. My favorite is this chili crisp tofu sandwich. It is packed with great flavor, perfectly tender tofu, and is layered between two pieces of delicious bread. I also love their arugula burrata prosciutto sandwich that is paired so nicely with their focaccia, making each bite the ultimate experience. While I've never waited in a really long line, I can say that they do move pretty efficiently. Unfortunately, there isn't much room to eat inside, but on a nice day, if you can grab a table outdoors, it's a great experience in the lovely Greenpoint neighborhood.

Great great bakery and all the workers were so nice. You don't really eat inside and have tables…read moreoutside Tried the prosciutto burrata sandwich and the tofu sandwich. There was basil in the first sandwich that cuts through the fattiness of the meat and cheese which was great. The second sandwich had this spicy sesame sauce which was so good - was not expecting to like the tofu one that much. Brown butter corn bread was the most moist one I've ever had and the top was so crispy. Rhubarb pastry was good but nothing special - didn't taste the rhubarb.

Radio Bakery is a very popular bakery in Brooklyn. This has been my second time and each time there…read morewas a line outside, however it moves quickly and the space inside is very small. Even though there is a line, you do not feel rushed or pressured to order quickly. On this visit we ordered plain croissant, chocolate croissant-fresh out of the oven, rhubarb croissant, black forest pastry and brown butter corn cake. The chocolate croissant was amazing. It is triple chocolate and cocoa powder is in the dough. It is filled with milk and dark chocolate, so creamy. The plain croissant was flaky and light. The brown butter corn cake was crispy and caramelized on the outside and soft and moist. The Black Forest croissant is a seasonal offering. It is made with their Triple Chocolate Croissant filled with chocolate cake and sour cherries and topped with mascarpone cream , Rhubarb & Custard Croissant . It is tart and sweet. The rhubarb is roasted and complimented with sweet vanilla custard. They all were excellent. Each were about $8. Highly recommend and don't let the line deter you .

I came during a weekday at like 11 and there was still a line but it is what it is. Because it's so…read morebusy I feel a bit rushed when I go here. It's also difficult to see all the items since everyone is packed in a line even when you get into the store. The food itself: - cardamom bun was yummy, a bit too cardamom forward though. 3.5/5 - the pb and J croissant was cool, a bit too rich for my liking but I admire how different it was and I actually had to save this one for the next day and it was still good so 4/5
