Pelin TasarJuly 22, 2015Cozy cafe in Hell's Kitchen. Latte is delicious. Breakfast options are tasty as well. Retro interior.
JD MaloneSeptember 5, 2017If you live at MiMA this becomes a daily visit. Take a look at the menu online to get an idea of what you want before you get here to avoid a longer wait.
Mariana PantalenaJune 28, 2016The best prosciutto and mozzarella sandwich I had. The place is great for working, very quiet. The service is good too.
Chet KevinDecember 6, 2014Ricotta pancakes are delicious. Steve, our waiter, is super friendly and service is very attentive.
CamillaMay 25, 2016Good coffee and their breakfast menu is gooooood! Omelette and yoghurt parfait are just some of their delicious dishes..
They have an amazing smoked salmon sandwich with mango, Brie, avocado and basil! Protip: You can get it without the salmon if you're vegetarian.
Luc DoanFebruary 1, 2016Friendly service. Came on a Sunday around 7pm and they offered $5 peroni beer on draft
Nicole McAfeeApril 6, 2016Loved the kale salad with grilled chicken. Very filling, with lots of layers of flavor.
My new spot for sure. Monday nights half off bottles of wine 👍 P.S. Foods great!
John ADecember 24, 2014More a mini cafe than a coffee shop, it has a good food menu and serves cocktails. Coffee seemed a bit watery and pan chocalat was average.
Craig VillamorOctober 9, 2013Bigger inside than it looks from the outside. Full bar. Cool mid-century modern decor. Bit of a fly problem when I was there. Otherwise nice.
Bill O'ConnellSeptember 4, 2013Try it! Tasty food, great coffee, and unlike their other location in the village, cocktails!
Christine WongMay 14, 2014The cheese platter is delicious! The prosciutto and fig sandwich is also great :)
SailorMarch 19, 2018The food was amazing but we waited an absurd amount of time . Good food nice service, confusing atmosphere.
Lorena OkhuysenJanuary 24, 2016Wine and cocktails are good. Service could be better. The bartender, Doug, is not very nice; he's rude, sarcastic and, whilst trying to be nice, he's too much
67thaveMay 18, 2014This place is nicer than much of what is in the area. Still - it's good not great and service could be improved.
Tessa DomzalskiNovember 24, 2015Overpriced. Terribly so. While a decent place to get coffee, I'd avoid the food. My ricotta pancakes were undercooked. Shoddy service as well.
Disappointing. Server neglected to put in 1/2 our breakfast order but did not neglect to give us the bill for the item he forgot to charge after it arrived 1/2 hour+ later. Unpolished service.
Sophia LinNovember 28, 2015Kinda disappointed by the coffee and French toast. Not very cheap, but very mediocre food and coffee. There are so many better options in NYC.
