As of February 2026 there's a crazy amount of construction out front, meaning there's a single entrance/exit and outdoor tables that adjoin street construction barriers. Exterior aside, the interior was a bit chaotic, with tables and standing room almost on top of each other. The espresso drinks are good enough to brave the pandemonium that is ordering/waiting for your beverage, but plan on taking it to go if you come here!

We got: - 2 hot chocolates: this was super chocolatey and it came with some milk - which was needed - fruit tart: this was super yummy! I would say this was overpriced for what we got ($33.75).

The cornbread came with this tomato jam that paired well with the jam and the chicken salad and ahi tuna bites were both extremely refreshing. I'd definitely come back!

I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to come to this spot again, but it's definitely convenient and reliable.

Amazing Creme (Croux) Puffs!!!…read more I got the green tea, black sesame, & earl grey. The cream filling is very generous and the pastry isn't too thick. Loved the outside flavoring. Each one was perfectly made and absolutely delicious. Would come back if ever in New York to try everything else! I still think of these cream puffs often!

We tried the raspberry and lychee tart, and I really liked how the tartness helped balance out the sweetness. The lychee bits in there were sooo yum too. I could definitely taste both the lychee and the raspberry well. And THE CRUST!! That was amazing. We also tried the strawberry matcha latte, but unfortunately that was way too sweet for me. The strawberry also dominated the matcha so it tasted more like strawberry milk :( We came on a Friday evening, and it was really difficult to find a seat so we ended up standing around to eat everything. This place is so popular! I want to come back to try all the other desserts especially the cream puffs and pastries!

Came here on Sunday for some pastries…read more Didn't have to wait long, as only one other person was there. Theres a shared bar table along one wall with high top chairs and menu options at the counter + a chalkboard with seasonal drinks. I left with a Balthazar Bakery box with 4 items. The 2 Everything pastries were filled with what looked like spinach and cheese. Incredible when reheated, but I wish they were served warm. The cinnamon roll was good, but not standout. The pain au chocolat was tender and flaky. Some of the seasonal drinks, like the Grinch, looked really good and I'd come back to try one, but I likely wouldn't swing for a pastry this time.

Ordered: Iced Biscoff Cookie Latte (~$9)…read more Aya's take: I needed an afternoon pick-me-up and found myself at Daniel's. The Iced Biscoff Cookie Latte caught my eye as it was part coffee, part dessert. I really wanted to like it. It was definitely rich, nutty, and sweet but not creamy and smooth like a typical latte. It also had a chalky aftertaste which I couldn't look past. For ~$9, I expected much more. Overall, the flavor profile is promising but the execution was off.
