    Egg sandwich with butter

    Me and my daughter came here looking to get a breakfast egg sandwich from somewhere clean This place has pasta. YES, PASTA. I've never heard of a small cafe having pasta. My daughter found this place online and we went straight here. We have seafood allergies and we asked them if they can have the cooks wash their hands and change their gloves and they said no problem! Food smells good and looks good. Would definitely come here again

    Solid specialty lattes located near Union Square. I keep coming here because it's near transit and people I know. I do love my lavender lattes and I also like their matcha rose latte, although it needed a lot of mixing on my part. The storefront is slightly nondescript and it could be easy to miss. Service is ambivalent. There's sandwiches and a variety of sweet lattes and flavored beverages. Lots of seating where people do work and chat.

    A nice café to relax in Union Square. The latte was good & the coffee was strong. We also tried to order the eggs Benedict, but for some reason, they were not able to make it for us because it was a weekday. The breakfast sandwich was decent but a little bit too salty and oily for our liking. Only con was that their WiFi was not functional.

    I was pleasantly surprised at how big Outro's menu was and how big the location was! The lavender latte had a prominent authentic lavender flavors without overpowering the coffee. It has a slight spice to it that added to the flavors. The taro foam cold brew was also tasty! The taro cream had a nice sweet flavor that paired well with the cold brew, but I did hear from staff that they use taro powder to whip up the cream. I do want to go back to check out their matcha and their snacks/food options! In terms of seating, there is a cute little nook in the front with lots of sun light, middle section with lots of tables, and outdoor area with benches and tables. Best part is that they allow laptops, even on weekends!! I can see myself getting some work done or catching up with a friend here!

    So, so good! I bought the brekkie plate. I enjoyed it very much. The eggs were glistening :) I was also impressed by the sheer size and comfort of the place. large, but inviting. I sat on the terrace. Service was great as well.

    This is a nice little coffee and brunch spot a few blocks away from union square that can also serve as a good work from home location or brunch with a few friends. There is a lot of seating in the back (can get a bit dim) but if the weather is nice there is a nice little outdoor patio section as well. Overall been here twice on Friday mornings and there was no issue with seating. There is wifi here but they request that laptops are only in use during the weekdays. There is also a bathroom that is decorated with graffiti. Each table has a QR code so you can seamlessly order anything (you can also order at the counter and the baristas are kind enough to bring it to your table). I got a strawberry matcha both of the times I visited and was a fan. The strawberry flavoring is strong and brings a sweet contrast to the mild bitter taste of matcha. They also put dried strawberries in your drink. The barista nearly decorated each drink. Once they made an error in my order (I got a plain matcha latte instead) they corrected and I gladly enjoyed two drink, which was nice of them. I am also a big fan of their pumpkin spice bread, nice to eat alongside the drink. Overall, great remote work spot during the weekdays with plenty of seating.

    Strawberry Latte

    I came in here today for a respite from the snow, and am so glad I did! Their strawberry latte looked too interesting not to try, and sure enough it was fantastic. No chocolate or anything, just tart strawberry syrup perfectly blended with the smooth milk foam and espresso, and some adorable latte art with freeze dried strawberries on top. I loved it and am already craving another one!! The service was super quick and efficient since you can scan a QR code to place your order, and my drink was ready at the counter almost instantly. Inside it was packed with college students busy on their laptops, they've got some nice music playing and a lot of healthy houseplants brightening up this cozy and warm space. I will totally stop by again the next time I'm in the area!

    Breakfast Sandwich and maple bacon & egg waffle, Matcha Rose Latte
    Lila L.

    Came on a Saturday and it was quite busy. We sat outdoors in their back patio since all the inside seats were taken. You order up front and they give you a buzzer for when it's ready to pick up. Food was just okay, don't expect any cheffed up brunch food. - Breakfast Sandwich ($11): ham, cheese, scrambled egg, and spicy aioli on brioche. Simple if that's what you prefer, nothing to write home about - Maple Bacon & Egg Waffles ($19): expensive for what it is, like a store bought waffle and 1 piece of bacon and egg. Only positive thing was the maple cream instead of the traditional syrup. I did see more people come here to chit chat like we did, than do work, so if you're looking for a quiet cafe this might not be it or go at an off time.

    We stopped in to escape the snow and it was such a delightful surprise! This cafe has so much space and seating. When the weather is nice there's also outdoor seating. I just got a drink but they also sell a wide variety of food as well. You can order from your table and they'll bring your food and drinks to you. Just a short walk away from Strand Bookstore!

    Came across this place as I was walking around and was hungry and wanted to try a new to me place. I looked it up on yelp and it looked good. I thought it was more of a restaurant but when I got there it was more like a coffee shop. They have many seating options in the front of the shop and in the back. There is a wonderful outdoor area with plenty of seating too. It is very relaxing out there. I got the avocado smash as It looked good on the internet. When I got it, the presentation was nice. The egg was on the side which was fine. There were pumpkin seeds on top of it which I didn't know before hand or I would have asked them not to put them on and there were also I believe chilly flakes and a type of cheese I am not too fond of and also there was a drizzle of vinegar I believe under the avocado toast. But I guess I should have asked or read what comes with it before ordering so it was my issue. I did not get any drinks here but the coffee and specialty drinks looked very interesting and good. So if I am in the area again and am able to stop in I may need to try one of their drinks and or a coffee. Staff were nice and took my allergies seriously.

    We've been going to Ariston in the morning, but this is just around the corner from us and thought we'd give it a try. Picked a strawberry banana smoothie and it was really good. Not to thick but they give you a nice big fat straw anyway. Hubby enjoyed a flat white to go with his Farmers Sandwich. I got an avocado toast. At first glance my toast is really thick. It turned out to soft, but firm. The smash had a subtle lemon flavor and a nice consistency. I can't comment on my husband's sandwich. He ate it all so that's a positive. Overall a breakfast for 2 cost us just under $50. They do make full service breakfast plates if you don't want breakfast sandwiches. There is a pretty little courtyard with seating available. Plenty of spots inside. It does get really loud in there. Doesn't take much for the volume to escalate .

    Taro Outro
    Ellie Z.

    Cute coffee shop! This seems like a good work from home space because they allow computers, have wifi and outlets, and have a lot of tables (both indoors and outdoors). For coffee, I got the Taro Outro Coldbrew: - Taro Coldbrew (7.7/10): Really solid drink! It's basically a purple whipped taro cold foam on top of cold brew. If you love taro then you wil like this. It's not too sweet because the taro cold foam on top mixes into the bitter coffee.

    Matcha Rose Latte
    Christina M.

    I was in search of a quick brunch spot and discovered such a cute cozy cafe in the process. There is a great selection of signature lattes such as lavender and matcha rose which I ended up ordering the matcha rose and then the lavender to go. No regrets. Both drinks were tasty as they were beautiful. For breakfast I opted for the breakfast sandwich with ham soft scrambled eggs a spicy aioli and cheese on a brioche bun. A great choice for under $15 followed by a side of potatoes for $5. Overall this is an affordable cozy spot near Union that I would come back to.

    Do they have heat lamps?

    There are overhead heat lamps over some of the tables along the wall in the backyard. It's decently warm in the backyard anyway though because of the tall buildings that enclose it and block wind chill.

The oysters were incredibly fresh, clean, briny, and perfectly served. Another standout that I'll definitely be ordering again. Between the atmosphere, the consistency of the food (super yummy), and the thoughtful team, Conwell Hall is quickly becoming one of those places you keep coming back to.

When you enter there is a bar you can sit at and two large high top tables next to it. As you walk further in there is a lounge with couches and various sizes tables. The whole space is surrounded by books! Heaven! We ordered a chai, matcha and a ginger cookie. Shout out to the woman taking my order for comping me my drink for my birthday! Everyone from the staff was friendly - I really enjoyed being there. The only thing I would say is someone should come by to check on the tables more often as I had to return other people's abandoned drinks. But you know what first world problems, am I right? Maybe they can have a sign or mention to customers to return their own cups before leaving. I sort of can't imagine why people don't... It is quite popular spot so you need to be very patient and strategic if you want to grab a table, as well as sprinkled with a little bit of luck. We unfortunately got there a little late. I went there at 3pm and hunted for a table and my friend got there by 330pm. By the time we ordered and started drinking our coffees - we were informed the lounge area will be closed at 4pm to prepare for the evening wine bar. Oh right this cafe turns into a wine bar in the evenings! How cool! At 4pm we thankfully grabbed one of the high tables - sharing it with another couple but it was large enough for the 4 of us. The lights dimmed and the atmosphere changed to more intimate. We unfortunately had to leave at 5pm, but I imagined picking up a James Baldwin book, ordering some white wine and enjoying both.... Mmm definitely next time. Maybe sometimes after work - sounds like a great wind down.

We tried the melon shaved ice $22 for the large which was a bit pricy but it was quite delicious. We were worried that the large might be too much for two people but honestly we were able to finish it without a problem. The melon pieces were sweet, the ice is milk based so it was creamy and flavorful on its own. We barely used the condensed milk that it came with (and we loved how they put it on the side for us instead). At the bottom of the shaved ice was cereal pieces and mochi which gave a nice different texture. We also tried their drinks specifically their blue lemonade and mango-ade which I thought was just ok. The highlight is definitely their shaved ice. Definitely go for the large as the small seemed much smaller and for double the price, you can get almost 2-3x more. Overall: it's a great place to grab a shaved ice and relax . The atmosphere is chill and you can stay without feeling rushed.

Just me, flavorless ice, and regret. If you are craving dessert, keep walking. This was a moment, yes, but sweet it was not.

I loved seeing the plants along with hints of pink, orange, and yellow throughout the art and furniture. It's a gorgeous space. Service was good, nothing much to mention. For food, we ordered the royal chai, mango lassi, breakfast kathi-rito, and the condensed milk bun. The standouts were the royal chai and the breakfast kathi-rito. The royal chai was creamy, salty, perfect sweet, and silky. It had notes of cinnamon and saffron, paired with sea salt. I loved this drink. The breakfast kathi-rito was tasty. I loved the potatoes, cheese, egg, avocado, and whatever else was in it. The sauce on the side was delicious. Not exactly sure what it was but it was sweet with a kick. The mango lassi did not have enough mango flavor for me, I couldn't justify paying $10 for it. The condensed milk bun was good but it was similar to any other sweet bun in an asian bakery. I'd pass on both of these. Overall, I'd highly recommend checking out Fontainhas. It'd be a perfect spot to check out if you're in the area for the Brooklyn Flea, or just Dumbo.

I'm sad to say that this has turned out to be a disappointment, catering to the Matcha-drinking Alo-wearing DUMBO crowd.

The paneer sandwich was supposedly made with Amul butter, but any charming nostalgic aspect of this dish was removed by the dry layer of ghas-phus above the paneer bhurji. I am all for fusion as the propeler of culinary innovation, but I do not want to live in a future where Sweetgreen has infiltrated the foods that I hold near and dear to my heart.
