I unfortunately did not try any if the delicious looking pastries as I only got a cappuccino. Which was ok nothing special. They have a few tables inside to sit and enjoy your coffee/ pastries at but its a bit tight fitting as I said this is a pretty small coffee shop. The lady was nice who was taking my order but it is only her working so it takes a little time to get your order but she was nice. If I am in the area again I would come back and try out an iced drink of theirs. If you find yourself in this area I would stop by.

You enter through a cute little coffee shop up front, and in the back--brunch magic happens. Delicious food, soft ambiance, and a perfectly relaxed atmosphere. A hidden gem worth discovering.

Ok guys here's my eclectic opinion on this spot…read more It's a small quaint spot, but a nice vibe to sit in the back & chill or meetup w/ friends. It's also a very busy spot. Note: Order boxes of these delicious buns & cakes for Office events, House parties, Bridal Showers, Birthdays , Home on weekends drinking tea or coffee etc. I ordered (4) buns. Two Cardamoms very moist & tasty with a hint of bergamot. I may be wrong but the taste is very exotic w/ out loads of sugar like most bakeries. I'm diabetic so that's important to me. The other (2) were the Brown sugar & Walnut, again very tasty & the cinnamon bun. All yummy but we all have our preferences. So, if you haven't been yet you need to patronage this spot you won't regret it. Plus, constant patrons coming & waiting on line to place orders. Awesome! says a lot. I'm never impressed with the size of a place, but the influx of foot traffic & cleanliness. Friendly staff! I've visited Malmo, Sweden & it's nice to know when I have guest visiting I can buy good pastries from here to impress w/ out the sugar rush. I recommend this spot, it's trendy.

Okay so some drinks were SOOO yum. But other drinks were a bit average. Tiramisu latte- AMAZING,…read moredefinitely on the sweeter side though. Barista was kind enough to make the tiramisu drink with matcha for me. The mascarpone cream was yum but the matcha taste was not really there, it was way better with coffee. There was a matcha pineapple drink which was quite refreshing. If you like pineapple, this is a great choice. The salted pollen coffee latte was VERY average. It was a bit too savory for my liking, and not too strong. We got our drinks from the little pick up window. Line moved quick but barista was slightly grouchy. Drinks all looked SOOOO cute though. Great for pictures! Overall tiramisu latte: 8/10 Rest averaged: 6.7/10

There is a wide and interesting selection of blends to choose from and the vintage displays are such a charming touch! Staff is super friendly and knowledgeable about the different flavor profiles as well. I highly recommend the Scarlet and Peach Fruit teas but you can't go wrong with any of their options! Definitely will be revisiting Paquita the next time I'm in NYC.

My friend recommended this spot to me, and I did not know that New York had a place like this!…read moreLocated in the west side, this shop offers a wide selection of unique teas and some small bites. The interior itself is antique, quaint, and there's minimal (but some!) seating for you to enjoy your tea at. One of my favorite parts of this shop is that their tea menu is all around the shop, right on their walls. So, you walk around the shop, look at the different teas (organized by type, caffinated/non-caffinated), smell them, and read the labels. I had a lot of fun doing this! Their prices are good and their teas are amazing. Definitely a cool experience!

The staff is all very nice and the food comes out quickly. portion sizes are decent for lunch items and things like french toast are above average. I liked that they used real tableware that had some weight to it as opposed to plastic, we accidentally knocked over a glass as we were leaving and it hit the ground but didn't break so that was a big relief but it makes the dining experience feel like more thought was put into it when even the table ware is of good quality. Overall it seems like a place that will be around for a long time, and you should definitely visit if you're in the area.

Very small space, so you'll be squeezed tightly with your neighbors. Come here after the brunch rush, after 1:30pm, to get a seat. Otherwise, there's always a wait. Quick, efficient service. Menu is small, simple, but everything is tasty and you can't go wrong with any option. $24 big banter Breakfast was a healthy combo of filling ingredients. Good to share between two people or take leftovers home. $18 avocado toast + $3 egg was tasty, filling and healthy. Pretty presentation. $6 hot matcha was disappointing. Very bland and watered down. Tasted only milk, no matcha, which was sad.

It's located in a quiet part of the west village where you can hear yourself breathe and take a bit of time for yourself. The coffee itself is bold and savory, and has a bit of a unique flavor profile that makes it stand out from most other coffee shops. Definitely notable and high quality, and hope they stick around. No one talks about this spot but it's got great espresso and it needs more attention. It's otherwise a small space without seating and might have a few pastries which I didn't get to try. Will be getting them again if i'm nearby.
