    Overpriced and usually out of everything. This is only to go if you're drunk and want greasy microwave food. Good milkshakes though

    Likha Art Cafe - Ube Latte with Espresso shot

    Very cute cafe in this local neighborhood. The staff were super friendly and telling us about her…read morebackground and connection to Philippines. There's a huge variety of drinks, food, snacks and pantry items. My hot ube latte with espresso and oat milk was hot and cozy. The pandesals were tasty. It's nice to see such a cute spot to relax and enjoy the local community art brought together.

    A side trip here came on the way back from Sleepy Hollow. It's a little off the beaten path if…read moreyou're driving on the Saw Mill Parkway, but it's located right next to a Metro-North train station on the Harlem Line (Hawthorne I wanna say? But I could be wrong given I am normally on the New Haven Line). Anyway, this place has 5-star reviews across the bar which is how this ended up being the first option I could find on the Saw Mill. So went we did. You can find street parking right next to its building. This is a nice quaint little art shop, and there's plenty of things here you can buy if you just need that something extra in your life. It is a Filipino shop with plenty to check out if art shops are your thing. I personally get bored with them pretty easily if I'm not fully invested in what art places have to offer, but that's nothing against this place as that is just a personal preference. So what you see on my pictures here is what I had: the Ube cheesecake and the Ube Affogato. Believe it or not this is not my first experience with affogato as there used to be an affogato place on the way to/from work I would stop by for. It's ice cream and espresso, and let me tell you that if you haven't had a good affogato before, you're missing out! In fact, I even once met a cast of actual Netflix actors and actresses at that old affogato shop, and there was one person in the cast that remarked that I could have fit in right with the cast. So by getting the Ube affogato here, it was like taking a trip down memory lane. It WAS however my first experience with ube, so it was a taste of old times and new memories all-in-one. Both things I had were really delicious! If I have more Ube things in the future and they're this good, I might have a new contender for a new favorite flavor of food! The customer service was really nice too. The lady working there you can tell puts a lot of care into what she does. A nice little tidbit I like is that when I asked for a spoon for my cheesecake, she shared that Filipinos tend to eat cheesecake that way as well. I thought that was some really cool knowledge. And the ambiance is very homestyle that sometimes you can't tell it's actually a shop. This will make for a great morning stop if you're ever in the area. Maybe you could stop by here, kick it slow a bit before catching a train to NYC, or even Sleepy Hollow. This place gets both my thumbs way, WAY up!

    My favorite place to enjoy a bite in Pleasantville. Have only ever ordered from the all-day-cafe…read more My original review was from 2016 and I gave it 3 stars because it was inconsistent and chaotic. Under new ownership for the past several years things are great. Relaxed, inviting atmosphere (indoor and outdoor seating), friendly staff, and yummy consistently good food. There is no table service in the cafe, you order at the counter and they call your name when your order is ready. They do deliver your food to your table if you sit outside. Sitting indoors or out, you are expected to bus your table when you leave. Who doesn't love any time of the day breakfast menu?! My go to is an omlet (ham & swiss or spinach & feta) with a croissant and either salad or potatoes. Excellent soups, quiche of the day, burgers, and a really solid corned beef reuben sandwich. Save room for dessert and coffee (trust me), if you have a sweet tooth the bakery items are divine.

    We were driving up to our house in Connecticut one afternoon and we weren't too hungry but wanted…read moresome nice coffee and maybe a pastry, so I opened up the Yelp app and saw that Jean-Jacques was right on our way in Pleasantville. We hopped off the Saw Mill Parkway and made our way here. There is a private parking lot for the restaurant, which is very nice. It was a sunny day and they had the front patio open for dining, but we sat inside. Once inside, the sight of all the delicious food made me hungry so I ordered a cheesesteak panini and fries. My husband got a jajik sandwich and a chocolate tart. My sandwich was delicious and filling and the fries were very good. I had some of the chocolate tart also and that was really good. Soooo chocolatey. Lamentably, I forgot to take pictures of my food. I was so hungry and it looked so good I scarfed it down and only as I was wiping the crumbs out of my mustache did I realize I didn't get any photos. I guess I'm a bad Yelper. Oh well, that means I have to go back so I can take photos of my grub next time. And I do hope to go back. If you're in Pleasantville, you should stop by here. It's also very close to the train station if you're coming through on Metro North. The folks who work here are super nice as well.
