    BL: Matcha Latte (Iced and Oat Milk)  BR: Flat White (strong w/ vanilla)  Front: Iced Macchiato (Oat Milk and Vanilla Syrup)

    The drinks and baked goods were amazing! I think this is by far some of the best coffee I've had in NYC. I think the drinks has a very good balance of a genuine coffee taste with a great sweetness. The price is pretty reasonable and all the syrups and top shelf baked goods are made fresh (baked goods are made fresh each morning). The matcha is good quality I would definitely suggest stirring more to get out some smaller chunks but a great refined taste. The flat white was a great strong bold coffee taste (a little bitter) but fits my friend taste perfectly as they had asked for it to be made strong. I personally enjoyed the Iced Vanilla Macchiato with oat milk the most as it has a good balance of bold flavors with a hint of sweetness. The Ricotta Raspberry Muffin (there was a nut in there too but I forgot) had good, not over powering sweetness to it. All the ingredients compliment each other well. It was also moist but a little crumbly at the top with real raspberry. I was also able to try the Nutella stuffed banana bread, which tasted great and was very moist. The Nutella gave a great hint of hazelnut to the banana bread. But I personally prefer the ricotta raspberry muffin. The service was definitely the star of the show. The owner was very kind and was open to giving all types of suggestions. The owner is extremely knowledgeable and is a great person in general. I would really hope that if you were to come here to meet him, he is amazing! The ambiance was also amazing. It is quite small, but most cafes are, but this interior is beautiful! Definitely a looker, but on top of that actually good coffee. The place is so clean and has outlets for anyone to use. The tables are pretty close together and there is some "bar side tables" but it was not too busy when I came in (although it deserves to be). Overall my experience was great from the second I stepped in, the owner is amazing, the coffee is amazing, and the baked goods are amazing. I would highly suggest the Ice Vanilla Macchiato with oat milk (or any other milk).

    "Velvette Brew is a beloved neighborhood cafe roaster where quality craftsmanship meets genuine…read morecommunity connection specializing in thoughtfully roasted coffee and tea paired with fresh pastries" Here's the thing.. coffee places are not just coffee places.. they are gatherings where we purchase coffee but there is a human connection. We come to sit, talk, share stories, our personal experiences and of course sip a fabulous beverage. I'm seeing this more and more as I visit fabulous coffee places.. Konditori, Villager, Bakeri, Hidden Grounds, and now Velvette Brew. First, the space: light, airy and I can imagine with their big windows, a sun soaked place on a sunny day. There are plenty of seats: tables and high top tables. Their menu offers a bit of everything from soup, sandwiches, quiche and pastries. There is a nice option of beverages hot/cold. Today, was a bit damp so I ordered a hot chai with bite size checkerboard cookies to dip. The barista was very pleasant and I found a seat while waiting for my chai. I see a lot of patrons working in laptops, some meeting up to talk and sip and even the barista chatted with a local patron. Love it! My chai was piping hot and absolutely delicious. The chai was frothy, rich, the black tea leaves infused with cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, sweetener, and milk. I savored every sip and complimented the barista. It is always great to find a new coffee place. I expect to be a loyal local at Velvette Brew. They also host music events and have a collaboration with Cry Baby Ice Cream. It is located in the heart of Park Slope. There are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. Velvette Brew 279 5th Avenue B63 to 3rd and 5th or R to Union Street, 10 minute walk.

They have a good amount of tables and chairs in the shop so a good place to grab a seat and chit chat with a friend. They offer a few bites to eat but nothing gluten free for this celiac girlie. But I got a croissant for my nephew. There's also a bathroom here! Huge bonus. Good little shop.
