The crunchy chocolate shell is actually really good. Coffee is moderately priced, pastries are a little expensive--but that's NYC + a viral trend. It gets pretty busy during the day with people working, so just a heads up.

The entire space seemed spacious, however ever table was taken. Incredibly packed and probably a problem they love to have. I ended up getting the pistachio latte and it was just way too sweet for me. It also took quite a while for my latte. I'd come back to try other lattes and just get a regular coffee.

We were the only customers at first and that was nice. Chaz was our server. He's attentive and knowledgeable. We tried the Ghia which is a ginger and lemon non-alcoholic drink. The can said sea salt so I'm not sure exactly what was happening. I had 2 glasses of something with bubbles. I believe it was the sweetest they offered without buying a bottle. We ordered the fromages, olives, deviled eggs, and the creme brulee. It was all delicious and fresh. The cheese impressed me most. It was served with several pieces of fresh, crusty bread. The servings of cheese were generous and there was a large portion of cinnamon apples nested in the middle of the board. Yummy is not good enough to describe this. I'm definitely stealing that idea for my next charcuterie board.

You must have the Brussels sprouts!! I'd go back for those in a minute! I very much enjoyed my salmon dish. Lovely presentation and preparation but portion a bit small.

I don't even want to know the calorie count - but worth it!! My one negative was the chill of the Cabernet Yes, I know that's the trend but personally I prefer room temp especially in cold weather The restaurant owner was gracious, staff actually charming and accommodating We are recommending this place to family and friends and plan to return especially when going to BAM ENJOY!!

You pay $8 per person for three hours, which seems absolutely incredible. They have delicious bubble teas and some light bites. They have teas and coffees too. Super shout out to the woman working there today (12/29) because my little cousin is not an adventurous eater and she recommended the lychee boba and gave him a sample. He never tries things but did and really enjoyed it. I am so thankful for everyone's kindness who worked there. A cool atmosphere with lots of meetups and games going on. Huge positive that you can make a reservation. I can't wait to come back!

The store was pretty emptied at the time, and clerk informed about pricing per hour for game play (board and card games). I decided to skip the games, since all I wanted was some food to-go. Got the pastry and a latte drink. The pastry was a bit off; cheese filling was too sour and the pastry just didn't taste that fresh. The matcha latte drink wasn't good neither; very small amount of Matcha flavor, but plenty of milk. Will probably come back for game play only

I've given Bittersweet a couple tries, but have left disappointed most times…read more I appreciate that their prices are reasonable, and its proximity to the park, but drinks and food haven't been great. Their espresso drinks are little too acidic/burnt tasting to me and the chai latte is SO watery. It barely has any chai flavor.. not sure if it's because I substituted milk for almond milk? But I don't think that should matter I've also tried their jalapeño cheddar scone which was quite dry. Their sandwiches seem to be popular which I'm still open to try, but I'd definitely skip on the drinks

I do also like that they reserve tables "without laptops" which can be more enjoyable for people who want to eat/drink/socialize rather than work. Overall, would revisit!

People have left some odd reviews of this place, including a one-star review for the restaurant…read moreapparently being highly politicized--a vibe I neither felt nor could visually identify within or without the establishment. I ordered a single burger and a Sudan spiced peanut butter latte, for ~$15! That's pretty inexpensive for New York City. I note this as some consider it overpriced. I suppose the food is fairly inexpensive, the lattes slightly higher than average. The "burger" comes wrapped in a homemade pita with diced cucumber, onion, and tomato, plus a few crispy, thick-cut fries and a yummy house sauce. It was a cool twist of the traditional burger and had a nice flavor. The sauce was like a slightly Mediterranean version of Big Mac sauce. The girl working as the barista and cashier was very nice and friendly. She had a nice presence and warm smile, made suggestions, and even gave a stranger free utensils when they popped on to ask. I think it's definitely worth checking out, and it's a good place for a cheap & simple meal that's still quirky and fun.

Perhaps I should have anticipated that, or my mistake in ordering. I also ordered a Moroccan egg salad sandwich which was substantive but surprisingly bland--sparse with the advertised capers and pickled red onions to give it more punch. I've always loved the look of the spot and the vibe--funky decor, outside and indoor facing counters to order, with some outdoor seating for people watching on Dekalb or heading nearby Ft. Greene Park. I see they are renovating and rebranding a bit and adding some burger component. While I didn't love it, I'd definitely give it another shot.
