This place is basically a small hole in the wall where you order from the window from outside. It is made fresh in front of you and you can have additional fruit flavors with the drink. Staff is friendly as well. I got the sugarcane with kumquat. The drink was very refreshing and sweet as expected.I like how you can add an extra fruit flavor for free. I would definitely come back if I was in the area. read more

A literal hole in the wall spot connected to a Vietnamese restaurant on Baxter st in Chinatown. Not too many places sell fresh squeezed sugarcane juice and it's a must on summer days! $7 for a large here and it's worth every cent, super refreshing and juiced fresh right in front of you. You can add optional flavoring in the sugarcane juice as well for an extra $2 but tbh it's perfect just by itself. Will be stopping by as much as I can this summer. read more

Anytime I go to Chinatown I have to treat myself to a surgarcane drink. This drink is very refreshing especially in this summer heat right now. If you love sugarcane I would recommend you check them out. I also recommend the kumquat juice mixed also delicious. Best service ever she always recommend me to try different flavors and it's always a hit. Anytime I get one I always take these long sips cause it's so good I think if I should a bigger one. It's just a storefront you can't go inside just order your drink and go please this spot let me know your thoughts!!!!!! read more

First time i stopped today the lady was very sweet got a cup. Delicious. Came back an hour later for a half gallon to go, and asked the young girl for a cup w ice so i can drink some on the go. She gives me a small paper cup with no lid, and I say "oh can i have a plastic cup with lid?" And she responds "sorry but we only give those cups when you order a cup" i said thats kind of ridiculous, can I buy a cup then? She says "no we dont sell them separately" with a huge attitude...please make it make sense why someone buying 7$ of sugarcane gets a plastic cup with lid, but someone who spends 35$ doesn't?

Sugarcane Daddy was such a fun spot to visit in Chinatown! Located off the street, it was a little easy to miss because of how small and unassuming the shop is. Note that there is no interior for sitting but instead, you order and are served at a glass window, where you can see the employees feeding sticks of sugarcane into a machine press for the drinks. The drink itself is really refreshing and not artificially sweet, and you have the option of adding various fruits to customize your drink. I personally like the original flavor with just sugarcane juice. It is somewhat pricey, but given how rare fresh sugarcane juice is in NYC, I think it's definitely worth it. This is a lovely stop to add at the end of a Chinatown food tour in the summer. read more

When people say hole in the wall~this little shop really fits the description. The little window at the door was basically the ordering counter. This small space housed a sugarcane machine that can juice up fresh cane sticks into a sweet refreshing drink. Got my sugarcane drink mixed with Watermelon. Didn't realize the watermelon flavor over-powered the sugarcane water- next time I'll just stick with the original flavor. Overall, a great drink spot on a hot summer's day. read more

Went on a Sunday afternoon, no one there but us. Someone came to help us with after L buzzed them. Order was ready pretty quickly. Anyway ordered an XL with lime for $8. it tastes too watered down with ice so obviously it would taste better without it, but it wouldn't be worth paying $12 for it. It was just okay. Not worth the $8, didn't taste that good. My brother has been here as well and he thinks it's overpriced. I'd rather get a different drink somewhere else for the same, if not more $. Or even watermelon juice would taste better but that's my preference. I only came here since I know L likes sugarcane drinks but even he said it was just okay. He also said the lime made it taste better. Glad we tried, but wouldn't come back. read more

If you know, you know :) This drink is straight fresh sugarcane, it doesn't get more pure than this. I grew up drinking this with kumquat in it, adds a light citrusy kick that's beyond refreshing, especially on a hot day. I got the XL, and while it's $8, they do not skimp on the juice. (Other places add way too much ice) Be prepared to wait if there are people ordering in front, I had two other people ordering half gallon sizes, so I waited a good 20mins before it was my turn. But trust me, it's worth it! read more

If you're in the mood for an afternoon refresher but don't want the extra sugar from boba or bottled drinks, Sugarcane Daddy is a small little storefront that juices fresh sugarcane and even adds fruit purée to your drink for the prettiest ig pic. It's $7 for a regular size and $1 for your choice of fruit purée (I went for red dragonfruit). They take credit cards with a $10 purchase minimum but they also take CashApp if you do not carry cash, no purchase minimum needed. read more

I'd say the price is relatively higher than that of a normal drink in the area, but based on the availability of fresh sugar cane juice in the area (aka none), it's justified. How long would if take for you to make this sugar cane juice yourself?? It's also made-to-order??? We got 2 XLs w ice ($8) of sugar cane juice with kumquats - chugged it down and was immediately sad it was gone so quickly. However, it was very delicious and quenched our thirst and sugar-craving. They also have a half gallon (~75oz) option ($30). Some quick maths: $7 for 20oz (w ice) = ?? bc amount of ice is fluctuates ?? but for continuity, $0.35/oz $10 for 20oz (w/o ice) = $0.50/oz $8 for 24 oz (w ice) = an inconsistent $0.33 $12 for 24oz (w/o ice) = $0.50/oz $30 for ~76oz (w/o ice) = $0.39/oz read more

I'm such a sucker for fresh sugarcane juice, but it's so hard to find in NYC. Luckily I came across this stand tucked in Chinatown's Vietnamese restaurant alley (if you know, you know). They'll have green, purple, or yellow sugarcane depending on the availability and season... fun fact for me since I didn't even know there were varieties beyond the green! I've tried the purple sugarcane juice by itself (it has a deep, rich sweetness) and green sugarcane juice with watermelon (comparatively much lighter). They were both delightfully refreshing. The prices are a bit high, but understandably so considering how fresh the sugarcane is. It's certainly cheaper than a flight to Asia. And props for placing the sugarcane juicer front and center for those optimal pics/vids. Team Sugarcane Daddy is clearly on their game. read more

They offer different flavors as well but I decided to go for the classic, just sugarcane. It took less than 5 minutes and each one was made to order.

Walked past this place. What a great find. I luv sugarcane juice, but very hard to find a store that has it. Sometimes can get at a street fair if the Sugarcane Man stand is there. That's usually about $8, so the store price is similar. This is a window next to or in a Vietnamese restaurant. You order outside in the window area. It says Sugarcane Daddy on the window. There are a few flavors including coconut. It does enhance the flavor, but actually sugarcane juice is great on its own. This one is great especially on a nice hot day. read more

I love how the acai is blended when you order it rather than being scooped from a tub. You can taste the difference as the acai flavor comes through stronger. The addition of coconut yogurt brings a tang and a creaminess to the earthy base. Their almond butter is ground fresh from the machine which gives it a crunchy and toasted flavor. The granola is a highlight for me. It has a generous blend of nuts, seeds, and dried fruit which bring a variety of textures with each bite. WOULD I GO BACK? Absolutely! I think this is one of the best acai bowls in the city.

For the $13, it definitely felt like a treat and not something I'd get all the time but I enjoyed it. My friend ordered the Secret garden juice with beets, grapefruit, pineapple, turmeric, and ginger and she liked it. The employees were friendly and patient. It wasn't crowded when I came in.. just a few people doing some shopping. We walked around the store and I liked that they had lots of health food items, supplements, vitamins, and vegan snacks and groceries, etc.. It was like a grocery store just with more interesting items. If I was in the area I'd definitely come back in.

Organic granolas, a wide variety to choose from!!

Best coffee I've ever had -- it is absolutely worth the hype!…read more It took about 10 minutes to get our coffee, but every second of the wait was worth it. The texture was incredibly smooth and silky, not heavy at all, yet rich and satisfying at the same time. I'm honestly not a coffee expert, so I can't explain exactly what made it so special, but it felt like heaven in a cup. One sip and I understood why people wait in line for it. If you're in New York, please, please get it. Highly recommend!

It was busy, so after paying, you get a cute ticket--hand it to the barista for the viral latte!

I'm super biased and love my Jersey bagels over newyork but that's another story. Ess a bagel hits the mark on every level, they have the culture, atmosphere and the bagels are great. My bagel was slightly stale but hardly noticeable. I just maybe question the freshness bc they are pumping out a lot of bagels. Super packed and you'll wait in line. The cream cheese spreads are impressive.

I know this is a popular spot, but I have to say, it was kind of just okay to me. The bagel was so thick and bready. I know this is more of the NY style, but it just wasn't quite doing it for me. Even with all the fillings I had inside, it was good, but not the best bagel I've ever had.

Hamburger America

If you're looking for a perfect, no-nonsense smash burger, this is the place. It's exactly what a…read moreburger should be. They don't rely on a laundry list of fancy toppings to hide behind; it's just the basics, executed flawlessly. I really appreciated that they keep it simple, giving you the choice of onion or no onion, letting the quality of the beef and the perfect sear speak for itself. Logistically, it's first-come, first-served seating where you're given a number. It wasn't too busy when I stopped by, so the process was seamless and quick. It's hard to imagine how they could make this any better without fundamentally changing what a smash burger is supposed to be. If you appreciate the classics done right, this is an absolute must-visit in NYC.

Went to Hamburger America on a weekend in the early afternoon. It's located at the corner of West…read moreHouston Street/Sixth Ave, between SoHo and the West Village. It was busy but not overcrowded, and we found a table outside. When you arrive, you order at the counter inside, receive a number, and then find a seat while your meal is prepared fresh. A server brings your food to your table once it is ready, it only took about 5-7 minutes for our food to arrive. I ordered the "All the Way" burger, their classic smash burger with mustard, diced onions, dill pickles, and cheese, along with fries and a gluten-free bun. The total came to about $17, including tax and tip. The burger was delicious. Smash burgers are my favorite, and this one was cooked perfectly with crispy edges while still moist. I also really appreciate that they offer a gluten-free bun. The burger and fries were a satisfying portion without feeling overly heavy. This is a casual spot, but it consistently delivers delicious food at a reasonable price. If you are looking for a classic smash burger in the neighborhood, I would recommend. I will certainly be back!

Was given 2 types - the baguette and one of the rustic loafs. Was also told I could request more bread if I wanted to. The eggs were poached perfectly, and paired so well with everything else on the plate. The bread tasted very good on its own, with butter, or to soak up all that yogurt, egg and spices on the plate. This ended up being a very substantive breakfast. I ended up taking 2 half loaves home with me after the meal!

We had made a reservation for 9.30 am and they asked us to leave at 10.05 am because they had another reservation waiting.

The waitress was friendly, just wish we weren't rushed out.

I always passed by here and liked the trendy, bright beach interiors. The food is delish - simple healthy classics with lots of fresh ingredients and delicious flavors! I ordered the fire egg wrap and couldn't have the spicy sauce so the server, Bryan, brought 2 other sauces (pura vida and Caesar) for me to enjoy. The pure vida sauce was a herby green with mustard that was so good. There's lots of seating space with clean bathrooms and polite and prompt service throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed my food and time here.
