    Pesto Feta Scramble
    Alexis B.

    Two Hands is a chain of Australian cafe/restaurants with locations in New York, Texas, Colorado, and Tennessee (all your hip cities - Nashville, Austin, etc.). I visited their NoHo location for breakfast last Sunday and really enjoyed my meal. It opens at 8, which I really appreciate because I'm an early riser and sometimes feel like brunch that starts at 11 disrupts my ability to have a full day. They have a single all-day menu. I ordered an americano and their pesto feta scramble (soft-ribboned eggs, mint, green pea salad, white balsamic, feta, and macadamia nut pesto on toasted sourdough). While I found the dish a little difficult to eat (you can't pick up the toast, but the thickness of the slice and the toast on it - while great tasting - made it a little hard to cut), I also thought it was delicious - one of the best breakfast dishes I've had in ages. I added a side of grilled halloumi, which was great, too. The service was great, and the restaurant is bright and happy and cute. They take reservations, too (sometimes places don't for breakfasts). Overall, it was a great spot for breakfast before a day of touristing around NYC. I'd happily return to this or one of their other locations.

    Vegetarian Breakfast Burrito and Banana Bread
    Kailey N.

    Two Hands is right near all the soho shopping and has some great brunch options. They have a lot of good vegetarian options like their vegetarian breakfast burrito (which you can add bacon to) and their banana bread is a great thing to share at the table. Service is pretty quick and sometimes they do add a time limit to the table to keep things moving. The inside space is on the small side but still very cute and nice for brunch. Seating is best for 2-4 people but I think they can accommodate larger groups if needed

    Lavender Matcha Latte
    Julia K.

    Two Hands is a great place for brunch. The smoked salmon, fennel & poached egg on sourdough was fantastic and beautifully presented, and the addition of lavender to the matcha latte adds a delicious twist to an already great staple. The hummus with the kale salad was another standout. Reservations are a must - the place was packed until afternoon on a Sunday, which also leads to it being rather loud, but the friendly service makes up for that.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this meal. We ordered the smoked salmon toast, lemon poppyseed waffle and salmon quinoa bowl. I really enjoyed my salmon toast. The herb cream cheese was the perfect savory to be added with the lox and pickled zucchini (which is different). The lemon poppyseed waffle was also super special with the mascarpone cream and strawberries. I could have ordered another one since we split it! My friend loved her salmon bowl and thought it was quite tasty. I'd absolutely be back and would want to try other items on the menu! We love Australian brunch.

    Amazing place! I have visited Two hands every time in in NYC, no matter the occasion of travel, work of leisure. Their iced coffee is so good and their brekky even better! I love their avocado toasts, so delicious. Staff is always friendly, though at times the wait is long as this place popular we don't mind the wait since we like it. Sometimes it can get crowded but overall its always a nice experience.

    Miso mushroom bowl with salmon added
    Novalina N.

    Came around 9:30a on Saturday, it's pretty empty. You definitely don't need a reservation if you come that early. Yummy healthy food, love the crunchy quinoa, flavorful mushrooms, and the added kimchi/chili oil. Minus 1 star since the drip coffee came in such a small size! Each refill also costs $1. The table base can use a little cleaning, they're sticky and my shoes kept getting stuck to it.

    Smashed Avo Toast
    Anna L.

    Easy, fresh, delicious brunch. Service was quick and super friendly so it was a really nice time. This avocado toast HIT THE SPOT with the fresh avo, some acidity and these yummy peppers.

    Chai. Good. Overpriced
    Shemesh Y.

    Very good casual food. Also reasonably priced. We had a fancy chai (this is the only over-priced item), the chicken bowl (good portion, filling, flavorful, seemed healthy), and some breakfast dish that its name I ccan't emember (but was good) :) They did charge us for a piece of bread requested for the breakfast item. That was annoying. Oh well.

    Breakfast Burrito
    Sana A.

    Every now and then I stumble on a brunch place that I know will become a staple. Two hands is exactly that sort of place. I can't believe I didn't stop by earlier even though it has been on my list to try. This location is small. There is some seating inside, plus there is a covered eating area outside plus some seats on the sidewalk. I happened to come by relatively early so we were seated immediately. The service was excellent and the recommendations were on-point. Here is what we ordered: - coffee with brown sugar cinnamon syrup. It was delicious 5/5 - breakfast burrito- this was really good and the dipping sauce on the side is excellent 5/5 - seasonal scramble- it was sooooo good!! It has fresh peas and feta and lemon 5/5 - banana walnut bread- it was so good, especially with the espresso mascarpone on top 5/5 - lemon poppyseed waffle- as someone who is normally not a fan of lemon desserts or poppyseed, I am surprised I liked this so much 5/5 I don't recall giving a 5/5 to every food I had- so this place definitely stands out.

    Breakfast Burrito
    Kristina I.

    Solid! Nothing spectacular but definitely would return for consistent, enjoyable, and healthy options. Feels like exactly what you'd expect from an Australian brunch spot in NYC, both in food and in vibes. I always get a breakfast burrito and a flat white at Aussie brunch and I'd order this combo again next time.

    Breakfast burrito, Banana Walnut Bread
    Katherine Z.

    Was supposed to go with a friend on a Sunday morning but she had to cancel last minute so I went by myself instead. They were super accommodating about the reservation, and I noticed a couple of other people eating alone as well! The mood was very lively. It was a little cramped but not too bad. Food was good - very standard burrito and banana bread. Didn't feel like the banana bread was super life changing but good nonetheless. Would come back to try the drinks next time

    Came with with reservations for brunch on a Sunday around noon and was delighted by how bright and airy the decor is. Definitely on the trendier side, but still comfortable and warm. I ordered an iced taro latte and the lemon poppyseed waffle. The taro latte was on the sweeter side, but I still enjoyed it. The waffle was fun to eat, with the cream and strawberries. It was pretty filling too. Unfortunately the bathroom was out of service while we were there, but the rest of our experience was great! The servers were friendly and attentive (almost too attentive though, with two different employees asking if we were ready to order within minutes of each other). I would definitely come back and enjoy brunch with my friends or even as a solo date.

    My friend told me to meet her at the Bibliotheque, and so I did, not knowing what I am walking into…read more(no googling before hand). Wow, what a beautiful space! 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.

It was way too hot and crowded inside for us to wait, so they told us we could just come back in 20 minutes to check on our spot. I wish they had a call list or a texting service to let us know when we were up. We came back at the 20 minute mark and thankfully were seated pretty quickly after that. Thankfully the dining area was cooler than the waiting area. For food I got The Smash and added a poached egg. My bf got the breakfast burrito (he would have gotten the eggs Benedict, but it didn't look like they had Cholula). I had read reviews that this was the best avocado toast in NY, but it was maybe my least favorite of the few I tried! Could just be me, but it had more of an acidic flavor than I like. My last bite was also a mouthful of feta which I had thought was egg lol, it was honestly hard for me to get down. My bf's breakfast burrito was maybe the smallest he's ever had, but it tasted decent. 5/5 for service, and the ambiance (though hot) was cute. I'd be tempted to give them another try because of how good the reviews are, but I wouldn't get their avocado toast again.

Four stars, there are no tea options (hot or cold) available. No comment for the coffee or latte as I did not purchase any. I do not drink coffee in any shape or form.

Matcha Croffle with strawberries $11.00 (with NYC sales tax $11.98) It was served on a small plate. The Matcha green tea cream was refreshing delight as well as the strawberries. The waffle was good. I always have a predilection for waffles. It was filling as dessert for lunch or morning brunch. I enjoyed mine seated as I did not want the Matcha to spill into the bag or on my lap along with the strawberries dropped for loss. WiFi access is available.
