A stylish, Japanese import that has a postcard view of the Brooklyn Bridge as its backdrop, it’s no surprise that this spot is a hit with AM joggers and tourists. It’s also a place where serious coffee nerds flock to geek out over single-origin pour-overs and other specialty beverages.
Best Coffee Shops In Brooklyn has a few locations throughout north BK, making it easy to get a quick brew if you’re in a hurry. The atmosphere is a little retro-meets-modern, with comfy seating and a selection of magazines for reading. The menu offers a mix of classics like lattes and cappuccinos, along with cold brew, mocha, and matcha. They also have a variety of vegan and gluten-free baked goods and trendy wrapped chocolates from local vendors.

It’s also a popular spot for freelancers, and laptop use is allowed except on weekends. They also sell a few of their own branded coffee beans to take home. Their latte art is also on point.
