Even if the cafe is 3/5 EMPTY you are not allowed to use your laptop anywhere other than the standup counter that has a 6 inch width. Yea. After spending nearly $30 on a terrine and an iced t, I think I'll go elsewhere. read more

I've dropped into this Madame Bonte location a few times over the years for an iced coffee or iced mocha when in the area. Friendly service, cozy ambiance, and a nice decor. It's a small spot but nicely appointed with seating available. They also have a small brunch menu available. Not really a coffee shop to sit and use your laptop as they frown down upon it here, but more of a spot to catch up with a friend over coffee and quick bite. Which is actually ok as sometimes we all need to disconnect for a bit. read more

Madame Bonte has a few locations checkered across the UES; this cafe is apparently their third. It's a nice, small space, with espresso drinks, matcha, and various sandwiches and pastries. They were plugging their cold foams hard on my visit, apparently they make their own strawberry and honey(?) foams. I had a matcha latte with strawberry foam, and was pleasantly surprised. It tasted like the strawberry essence had been infuse throughout the entire drink, without tasting artificially sweet or too strong. Definitely a very interesting twist on the matcha drink! Not a ton of seating, but it's nice to have a quieter cafe option off 2nd Ave that wasn't swarmed like some of the others nearby. read more

I had a divine experience at Madame Bonté cafe. I discovered this cafe through the inkind app- I wish i had known about them sooner. Delicious food and drinks, warm and professional customer service and a clean place to eat. If you are just popping in for a pastry and coffee to go they are quick and efficient- if you choose to stay for a bite it is a cozy and clean place to pause for a minute. I want to give recognition to Cagla's exceptional customer service and to Jalil for the DELICIOUS avocado toast with scrambled eggs- perfectly prepared and the avocado was at peak ripeness! Last comment- accesible entrance and I saw Cagla open the door for an older woman wirh a walker- very nice to see young adults showing repect for our elders:) Will definitely dine here again! read more

A very cute French-inspired coffee shop on the UES! Stopped in for a light lunch and got a chai latte with oat milk and caprese panini ($18 total). The chai was very well done, and the caprese was delicious - the bread was perfectly toasted to crunchiness and the mozzarella and pesto balanced each other perfectly. There was room for about 10 people to sit down inside, perfect for a solo lunch. Also appreciated they have a restroom inside too. read more

I was here with a couple friends for coffee. I liked the idea that the coffee shop turns into a bar. That being said, we asked for water and we were told there was no still tap water that we could get and we had to get a $12 water bottle. Later that night when it turned into a wine bar, they served tap water so that was a bit strange. Regardless, it's a nice environment for coffee or for a wine bar read more

Probably the nicest barista I've encountered not only in New York but also back home in Midwest. I tried the strawberry matcha with cold foam, she let me do almond milk no extra charge unlike most places, and it was a reasonable $8.50 compared to other speciality drinks on UES. Cute place inside to sit. This place never showed up when searching for coffee spots around me on Apple Maps, so I'm so glad when I walked by I decided to go in! read more

5.0 / 5.0 Cafe on 66th in UES. A small cafe with 6 tables for 2 people and 3 counter seats. I used it for morning breakfast, Even in the morning on a holiday, the cafe was packed with customers. There was a constant flow of people taking out food. The Croque Madame I ordered had fluffy bread with cheese and ham that went well together. The coffee, which is carefully brewed one cup at a time, is exceptionally delicious! Above all, the staff was very friendly and smiling and made me feel very comfortable! It is one of the cafes I would like to go back to. ※ There is another store on 84th, which is larger and has patio seating! What I ordered was: ・Croque Madame ・Avocado Toast ・Iced latte read more

I walk by here all the time so I'm happy I was finally able to stop in. It's a super cute cafe that plays light music in the background. There are 5-6 tables. One side is a booth, which is nice. I got the honey oat latte. It was good! But I didn't realize how much of the oat milk you could taste. I would definitely come back to try a different drink. read more

One of my favorite cafés in NYC - if you love French pastries/food and coffee/tea, it's a must visit! I always order a flavored latte or matcha and a croque monsieur, my #1 favorites! This time I got a strawberry matcha with it because I already drank a little too much coffee for the day, haha. The service is always sweet, although sometimes it takes a few minutes for the food to come out since they only have a few employees in at a time. The ambiance is cute and perfect for a little chat or even remote work. This location is a little small, but there are bigger ones further north in UES. Highly recommend a visit! read more

I stopped in for a cup of coffee a the coffee itself was amazing. Customer service not so much.

Still a pleasant oasis. I like it here when it's quiet. And weekdays are a nice time to visit, but ANYTIME WILL BE FINE. And, they are open until 5pm now!! Great! (They used to close earlier) Today (January 18, 2024) I finally tried the smoked salmon w/cream cheese on croissant, comes W/small side salad. Nice. A very fresh and flaky croissant. My chamomile tea with honey was OK. The carrot cake bar looked so good I had to try it. I could see the beautiful ingredients like black walnuts, plump raisins and carrot. I can't quite say why the frosting didn't do it for me, but the carrot cake itself was nice. Until next time... read more

Madame Bonte is a perfect example of how to get your business established gradually. The first location I visited is across from my apartment. Then one day during my walk I visited the second location on East 84th Street. Now the owners have not disappointed me once again with their location on East 66th Street. They have my favorite scones and my daughter enjoyed the coffee. Customer service is always timely and friendly. This visit I bought two scones to go. I'm definitely recommending and I will return without my daughter so I can take photos without her getting mad at me! read more

On a cold and windy morning, my daughter and I stopped by the café for breakfast. Though small, it had a cozy and intimate feel with wonderful staff. The croissants were delicious, especially paired with a matcha latte! read more

Cute cafe on the upper east side! They have a decent amount of seating that does get filled pretty quickly. They offer food that is more than just baked goods! The coffee tasted good, I'd be back! read more

Stopped by for a cappuccino, and I loved it. My drink was delicious - and that's coming from a coffee snob. The pastries looked delicious, and I'll definitely be back to try them. The banquette was comfortable, and I loved the French soundtrack. The barista was charming. Can't wait to visit again. read more

I ordered a honey cinnamon iced latte and instead of adding honey to the hot espresso, it went straight into the milk and ice in the cup, meaning it sunk to the bottom. When they added the hot espresso over the ice and milk, none of it incorporated and I couldn't taste any of the honey. Disappointing for $8, especially considering how small it was. read more

Some places are perfect - and French people having a meal here is always a good sign :) Lovely lattes and a joyful vibe. read more

A small side street gem. My freshly prepared salad was excellent and beautifully presented. Service and quality that you don't expect from such as small café. Much more than just coffee. read more

I had a poor experience with the staff. I used to come here regularly and it was a pleasant place to work. This time, despite the place being half-empty and having spent an above-average amount for a meal, I was told I could not work at a two-person table (in order to keep room for other customers). Again, the place was half-empty. Luckily the other customers supported my request for a refund and suggested that they, like myself, would not come back to this place. read more

I have been coming here consistently and I have to say service and quality of food has degraded. Today, they forgot my $3 egg and my $4 1/4 of an avocado to the already expensive salmon tartine. They took my order back and then realized my salad was dry as the Sahara desert whereas normally they would put oil/spices on it. I was hungry so I ate it as is. My coffee was made to go instead of to stay. Would've taken a pic but none of it was aesthetically pleasing. read more

This is the third outpost of the Parisian-style cafe. Unlike the other siblings, this is just a daylight venue for now. Expect their regular daytime menu, French pastries are always fresh and tasty and a great comforting spot for a leisure lunch or brunch. Beware no laptop is allowed on weekends. read more

Absolutely delicious, some of the best coffee and pastries I've had on the UES! Enough sitting area for 5-6 tables. Highly recommend! read more

it's a cute location but a waste of money. I got a caramel iced latte with oat milk, paid $8.55 cents & it tasted like shit. Now I'm down almost 10 dollars & the coffee is in the trash. Not sure if their pastries are good but the caramel sauce they use taste like cough medicine. read more

I was in NYC visiting a family member when we decided to stop in for breakfast. Madame B is a super cute cafe! The two guys serving drinks and food were kind and very polite (they are keepers). I had a decaf latte, ham and cheese croissant and a chocolate scone which was all fresh and tasty. It's a small space but cozy, the seats are comfy and the bathroom is clean (a plus). If I lived here this would be my go to place. read more

Cute tasty and nice happy hour for drinks and apps! Love this spot for catch ups with friends and even a date night
