    Butterfinger Latte

    Love this place. Very nice staff. Cool and fun menu items. Definitely worth stopping in.

    Nestled in this orthodox neighborhood is this little gem of a coffee shop called Milk Crate. It's stellar reviews are mainly due to the owner and baristas serving up wonderful cups of coffee with a kindness that's so needed in these times. I ordered my Mocha Latte up front and decided to look around the small shop as I'm waiting for my drink. Wall was plastered with post-it notes of customers "paying it forward" to people that's in need. Felt it was a great gesture the shop is doing for it's community and should give praise to. I requested latte art on my drink and the barista delivered (kuddos to my cup of art!). The drink itself was a bit on the milky side, I liked it. Price is average in this neighborhood.

    It's a really cute little coffee shop that's always packed. It's in Borough Park so there are tons of Hassidic Jews. The place is kosher and keeps Shabbat hours. It's very yuppie and the coffee is amazing. I like sweet lattes & so far they haven't disappointed. It's like a better Starbucks. Starbucks and Dunkin' Donuts overcook their beans and their coffee tastes burnt, so you have to add flavors to cover up the burnt coffee taste . I'm very happy I found this place. Great quality. They're not cheap but I feel like it's worth it. A large, white chocolate latte is $7.50.

    Ice coffee & avo toast with egg on top were YUM! Cool ambiance & nice service, overall a great find.

    Walking somewhere on the border of predominately Asian and predominately jewish Brooklyn, I stumbled upon an interesting and maybe important melting pot location. An orthodox bourgeoise coffee shop. Other than being pretty cramped, it was a good iced latte beverage and it was interesting seeing 80 % of the clientele being orthodox Jewish, lined up like yuppies for their coffee. It actually wasn't too bad on price (pricey coffee Brooklyn is still better than pricey coffee Manhattan).

    Neat little shop where I had a black coffee, fresh and strong, a while back; was somewhat on the pricier end

    Very nice atmosphere, coffee, and food! The employees treated us very well and made us feel welcome and comfortable. We loved it and hope to be back soon. Thank you so much, staff!

    I typically come in here only when I'm the area. The establishment is always clean and opens early…read moream 5am which is a such a plus if you work extremely early in the morning. As far as the customer service goes I wish it was a bit better. The staff aren't the most pleasant. No good morning no acknowledgement of comprehending what you order they just walk away and start the order. Which is why I double check always. I do notice they speak more pleasantly to other customers that come in. Not sure if it's a culture thing or could they be discriminatory but it's a bit unsettling. Food: 3.8/5 I only order the poppy seed bagel and that's pretty tasty. Not to doughy although I do have them take out a good portion of the bread because I like it to be extremely thin. Service: 3 /5 Service needs major improvements , language barriers are also a major factor to consider as they do speak Spanish and their primary language. Ambiance: 3/5 Standard & basic bagel shop set up. Standing & waiting area is basic they have counter tops should you want to stand inside and eat nothing fancy. They do have a wide variety of drinks to choose from and coffee and tea.

I will get the occasional breakfast sandwich (like an egg and cheese or bec), or a turkey/cheese sandwich for lunch or dinner. Otherwise, they have a pretty good menu of other types of sandwiches. Depending on who is making the sandwich, it will vary. Definitely a safe bet either way. They also have your usual snacks like potato chips, sodas, beers, and what not. I've been here a number of times because I'll be in the neighborhood. This is definitely one of my favorite bodegas around. My favorite part being how personable and friendly the family who runs it. They've now become a familiar face. Overall, a recommend for if you happen to be passing by. It's conveniently located by the F/G subway stop, so it's hard to miss.

    Was in the area and looking for a quick sandwich option…read more Came into Albemarle and they seemed like they had a variety of options (breakfast sandwiches, rolls/hero's etc). I chose to go with the JJ Sandwich (breaded chicken, mozzarella, jalapeños etc). I get to the cash register and a woman rings me up and mumbles something in another language to the man who's preparing the food she then proceeds to add a dollar onto my order and doesn't tell me why. Upon opening the sandwich, the chicken cutlet is soggy and seems like it was made days ago. Not sure if there other sandwiches are better but this sandwich for $13.50 was extremely underwhelming. I could've gotten a lunch special at a Thai restaurant down the street for cheaper and better food.

    I finally made it here for lunch and wow I was impressed!…read more They have a Mediterranean influenced menu and we ordered a few items which we loved. I ordered the chicken schwarma plate and falafel salad which were excellent - the fries were terrific and the overall atmosphere was to die for - it's a nice cozy space and the service was excellent The owner cares deeply about serving quality food at a reasonable price - they make challah bread over the weekends which sells out fast Definitely try this place you won't be disappointed

    I was craving falafel and this is one of the few places that popped up in the neighborhood…read more I ordered a falafel sandwich and it was fresh and flavorful. I would definitely order again. Israeli style with pickles, which I love. The chickpea soup was a standout. So flavorful and nourishing; definitely a nod to the sopa de garbanzos that I grew up with. The generous portion of labane is rich and complimented by herbs and an excellent olive oil. But it only comes with one pita! Personally, I'd prefer a smaller portion with more bread. Ok, first, let's be accurate about a few things. Etymologically, "batata" comes from the Spanish for "potato." This is a nod to "Sephardic" Jews, from the Hebrew word for the Iberian Peninsula (by definition, Spain and Portugal; after "expulsion," this came to include a diaspora more broadly northern African. In order words, western and southern European, not Eastern like Ashkenazi Jews.)

The aunties are mentioned often in other reviews, and that's because they're amazing. They'll gladly explain what you need, especially when it comes to the super tasty (and extremely inexpensive) deserts that populate racks and the drink fridges here. Some are sweet, some are sour (the deserts, that is), they'll let you know. Honesty since a cake here is $5, you can afford to try everything! How on to the main reason that you came, the Banh Mi. You literally can't go wrong with any of the eight main sandwiches here. I've tried them all so you don't have to, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't. The bread is crispy, the ingredients are super fresh, and the tastes combine perfectly. The decor is perfect for this kind of spot. No frills. There are three tables and a bunch of chairs. It's exactly what I want in a takeout type place. They concentrate on the food. So, to wrap this one up. Go. I'd say that I'll be back, but I've been coming here for years. If you haven't, it's time to start.
