Almost $4 for a 12 oz. cappuccino?!?! And it didn't even taste like $4 worth of anything! I looked over their selection of food and couldn't believe my eyes: $3 for a handful of chocolate-covered animal crackers, $3-4 for a muffin... You get the idea. Besides the overpriced coffee and food, the service was friendly and I like their free trade, hand-picked, organic, sustainable, environmentally-friendly, Brazilian theme. read more

First off, to all the entitled haters who want a back rub and a life affirming message with their coffee, please get over yourself. Its not about you. That being said, O Cafe is on point. Their espresso is nuanced, delicious, and not harsh or overly acidic. Their drip coffee is not over-roasted, and often has tannic fruity notes and all the things that help you know you are drinking freshly roasted coffee brewed at the right temperature. The Pão de queijo (aka Brazilian Cheese Puffs) are a moment of beauty and joy, especially with fresh butter. (Also GLUTEN FREE!) Add to all of this a variety of sandwiches, confections (GF rugelach), a dedication to fresh, local products, and a dedication to composting, recycling, and stewardship of this ball of rock hurtling through space, I go out of my way to come to O Cafe. Have a tremendous and caffeinated day, Yelpers. read more

Brazilian coffee anyone? Just go to the old Joe Junior's on sixth! What a beautiful transformation -light wood throughout, a showcase of pastries, speckled orchid plants and the most cheerful people -love everything they offer here. Sexy pour over coffees and chocolate lattes. Pão de queijo -cheese bread. Pão de mel -honey cakes. All of a sudden Greenwich Village is fun again -plus Kin Shop is nearby. read more

I got an oat milk chai latte and I wasn't expecting it to be $7 lol, but since it was that expensive I was hoping that it would be super tasty. The chai was mediocre at best because it was basically just oat milk on ice, like wtf. I will say that the inside of the café is super cute and a great place to do work! But this place is expensive for no reason. If you're looking for a really good chai latte, I would recommend Pause Cafe I'm the Lower East Side; that's a drink worth every cent! All in all, you can skip this place on your daily stroll, it's definitely not worth it. read more

Submarino. Get it if you love thick, dark chocolate. It was perfect for a cold day in NYC. You should get a stirrer to continuously stir it though, otherwise it'll settle and thicken quickly. Pao de queijo. Get it if you want a fluffy pastry with cheese in it. It was perfect with my submarino. So light and fresh. There's not a lot of space in there, but if you're lucky, you can sit down and have philosophical conversations with a close friend and catch up on life as you sip hot caffeinated beverages. They actually gave my friend 2 coffees because there was something wrong with the first one. Bonus points for bonus coffee! I like. read more

Yes. The reviews are right. There is a distinct, not-so-charming smell of cheese that hits your nostrils upon entering. A plain croissant and latte cost me $8. More expensive than most cafes. The croissant is fried with an oil different from most bakeries; it's strong and overpowering. A croissant should taste of dough and butter, not weird grease. I won't get it again. I was feelin the plant explosion walls. Wasn't feeling the smell and prices. read more

Despite their surprising lack of Brasilian bragging during the World Cup, the staff here was very friendly and even more efficient in accepting PayPal for a pao duo. The Pao de queijo fresh out of the oven was satisfying and better than most*, and the pao de mel was also better of breed. Great location and props for actually posting prices, and clearly (above the counter/register). *even if the smiling staffer amusingly butchered both names to both me and the girl in front of me Pao De Mel $3.50 Pao de Queijo $1.50 -$5.00 BROWNIE - pretty tasty but far from worth it given the size (they offer a larger one that's "gluten-free and not sea salt' but unsure of price) -$2.75 SCONES - oat & raisin (not oatmeal) - dry and unexciting, even by scone standards -$3.00 read more

Very good chai latte, spicy and not too sweet, just the way I like it. The latte was a bit warmer then lukewarm, so no burnt tongues if you drink too fast! There's plenty of power sockets along the walls for people who want to work on their laptops, or someone who desperately needs to charge their phone. I generally fall into the latter category. Like other reviewers have already stated, there is a weird odor that lingers in this cafe. The smell hit me the moment I walked in. There was a decent amount of people sitting, so I thought it was just me who was smelling a chlorine mop stench. If I'm in the neighborhood, I would stop by for another chai latte, to go. read more

Conveniently nestled between West and Greenwich Villages, with some of the friendliest service I've seen in a coffee shop in quite some time. Sometimes you need an Iced Green Tea on a rainy day. Knock back a few before feverishly typing on your laptop! read more

Brazillian coffee shop with lots of hot/cold coffee & tea options. The picnic tables are a good place to get some work done. Always well air-conditioned here. No BR. Menu prices include tax. Don't forget to pick up a loyalty card: "Wen you bring your own mug, the 7th cup of coffee or tea is on us." -Fruit ($1): Bananas and apples available. -Regular Brownie (I was charged $3.75, even though the cashier said it was $3.50): The flavor was terribly off. Blech. -Sea Salt Chocolate Chip Cookie ($2.50): OK overall. Large, thin and totally greasy. Mine was underbaked so it was like cookie dough. -Pumpkin & Fig Muffin ($3): Need lots of water to down this artisanal-looking muffin. Tastes heavy of whole wheat and kind of dry. Good fig garnish though. -Espresso Brownie ($2.75): Small and kind of ugly, but very moist and delicious! Same flavor as Nips coffee candy. read more

Very nice and friendly staff here. Really good chia seed/coconut/granola bowls or acai bowls. Enjoyable lattes. Cute decor and overall warm vibe. I enjoy coming here. read more

A local shop in the West Village! The owner is a nice guy. He made me my Hario V60. A shop that understands 3rd wave coffee in one of the cultural capitals of the world shouldn't be so hard to find, but when you're surrounded by Starbucks I guess people don't know or care what they're missing. Thank you, O Cafe for existing! Hario V60, Clever, Chemex, you know your caffe! They also make real cappuccinos, macchiatos, and cortados (an Iberian import for thst post siesta pick me up) I got the macchiato my first visit and the Ethiopian drip on my next. Both were delicious! read more

I had seen many cool looking young people walk into this cafe and decided to try it out for myself one day. It was extremely underwhelming. The food was cold, no one offered to heat it up for me. The worker was not very kind, when I tried to ask what some unlabelled food items were. It was not a welcoming place, and the food was very mid. read more

I had latte Bahia which tasted like a mocha latte. The coffee is nice and the store is cute, but the staff has a a little bit attitude. I am not sure if it is because I use CUPS to order or they were busy. read more

Cute little spot. There are a variety of items for breakfast and for lunch. I enjoyed my ricotta toast and almond milk match latte. This place was pretty full all morning which is always a good sign. They had Stevie wonder playing in the background. The pastries are fresh and most of the food is made to order. I love the vibe of this place. The only downside is people are a little too hasty to grab your seat and are willing to throw out your stuff to get on heir laptop. I love this place but the experience of having my stuff thrown out when I just went to ur the bathroom has left a bad taste in my mouth. read more

This is a chill cafe with some cute leaves decorating the walls! I had their hot cocoa and cheese ball to munch on (which reminded me of the bread at Calle Ocho that I love to eat!). read more

Alright, I was dubious about the sandwiches because they aren't made to order, but rather sitting in the pastry case. But dang, the simple sandwich (cucumber, cheddar and butter on multigrain) was sooo good and tasted fresh. They also had a cashew milk horchata latte that was super creative and equally delicious. I love the vibe here, it feels open and chip with the big windows, plants hanging from the walls and wooden furniture. Free wifi too! Great spot for doing work near the NYU campus read more

My only major regret is that is it not 100 yards from my front door. If it was I'd be here every day. Fine roasted coffe served and prepared in various forms (cone drip, french press, etc) without being gimmicking (i.e. Blue Bottle). It very much feel like something out of Berkley or like its been here churning out the same amazing coffee and outstanding wholesome bake goods since the 70's. They also have a few really great looking sandwiches such as a kale sandwich with tapanade that i wanted to devour upon sight but had to get my coffee on the run. Next time I will commit to venturing past my East Village haunt and stay while. read more

Cool place. Love the concept. Eco-friendly and green. Expresso was pretty good. Pastries and sandwiches looked good but I stuck with my expresso and a cortado (expresso with steamed milk). Went both days in NYC and wish it were in my neighborhood. read more

Cafe uses high quality ingredients and is super cozy. The chia pudding is delicious! Quick service.

It's totally overpriced especially considering they have outposts in the New School buildings and serving the students. It should be subsidized for students. read more

Ordered an ice coffee - very bitter, I threw it out. The girl who waited on me was very, very nice. Iced coffee is $6.00 - way too expensive. read more

The cafe interior was cozy and nice! Met a friend here for coffee and stayed inside comfortably for 2-3 hours just enjoying the atmosphere.

Oh man. If you look up the phrase "gone downhill" on the Internet you'll see a photo of O Cafe. The food and beverage quality is the same but the people who work here...it's either like they're chewing gummies from the time the doors open until they close or they haven't slept in weeks. They are so indifferent. All the attentive people who used to work here are gone. They knew your name, they were friendly, they knew your order before you did. This new crew couldn't care less. Fernando (owner), if you're reading this: Light a fire under these people. Wake them up! read more

Slowest service ever. Latte was weak. If I wanted a cup of steamed milk, I'd just do that at home. Not worth $6.

Big fan of the place. It's got loads of healthy options for breakfast or really any other meal. Great coffee drinks & best of all- pao de queijos!!!! great little cafe spot! read more

Imagine a picnic put together by a chef whose style is colored golden by the California sun. A bounty of creative, veggie-friendly fresh food. Gourmet yet relaxed. The leafy green sandwich, the lentil feta salad, the roasted yams, and pao de queijo are all excellent. Coffee is good, but is perhaps ironically the only point here which is merely good. read more

I love this place and come all the time for pao de quiejo and oat milk lattes. They also have alfajores sometimes!

Truly a shitty experience. Half greeted by a semi cationic cashier with whom I had to repeat my order 3 times. Seemed like ever time he blinked he forgot where he was. After noticing a few drinks being made to customers that came after me. I got closer to the counter and he asks me what am I waiting for? You took my order 3 times 10 mins ago. (How can you forget) the barista another dip shite asks me again. Please if you are the owner of this fine establishment I beg you to train and be present. Coach in the moment. I will not be patronizing this location too which I have been over the past 8 months which is roughly $2000 year. I will be spending it somewhere Else. FYI you need to ventilate the cafe always smells like cheese. read more

Very tasty food, and off-duty employees gossip about customers in front of customers On April 9, I was starving and needed a snack. I purchased the organic figs with cashew butter, and grabbed a table to eat them. The Turkish figs were amazing: great flavor, fresh and paired perfectly with the cashew butter. I never imagined putting these two items together, but I loved it! While eating this tasty treat, I was startled by a loud laugh. I looked around to see where it came from, and made eye contact with an off-duty employee who came in to visit his coworkers. He was tall, blonde, and wearing glasses. He loudly announced that everyone needs to keep it down, because someone just gave him the eye and looked directly at me. Yes, I did look at him. To see the source of laughter, without the judgment his insecure comment imposed on me. After leaving the restaurant, I called the restaurant and spoke with the manager on duty. After describing this person and the incident, it turns out I'm not the first person to call and/or complain about this employee and his comments. Based on the menu, I'll definitely stop by again to check out the food if I'm in the neighborhood. To the tragic hipster employee misinterpreting customers reactions: please be less insecure and enjoy the gorgeous weather outside when you have a day off. read more

I saw lots of similarities between O Cafe and Blue Bottle - rustic decorations both inside the shop and for cups they use; espresso at the darker and more intense side; nevertheless for some reason I just did not quite enjoy my cappuccino. It was a bit too strong in terms of bitterness and less flavor was coming from the espresso bean itself...hmm I probably should just go directly to Blue Bottle instead read more

This place is a rip off. I asked for large cappuccino and croissant. After a charge of $11 they served a small cappuccino and then told me that its the only size. Horrible business practice. And the coffee is nothing to brag about. Stay away!!! read more

Models. Soccer. Carnival. And coffee? Yes, this little café on 12th and 6th Ave serves up a strong Brazilian brew with a side of organic healthfulness. Focused on ecologically responsible practices and serving up a range of fresh baked goods and snacks - it's the little café that could in a city of dingy diners. I'll be back for that toast smeared with ricotta, honey and lemon zest. Yum! --- Also worth noting that they do space rentals for after hours events for 30-50 people between 9-11pm. read more
