Such a cute, small cafe in Bergen Beach!…read more We were in search of a new local coffee spot and decided to give Highly Grounded a try. We loved their house made syrups - they tasted fresh & you're definitely able to tell it isn't the cheap store bought stuff. During this visit we tried the Suavemente Latte & Raspberry Mocha - both had the perfect amount of sweetness and were the perfect morning pick-me-up. For the price, it's comparable to a large chain coffee shop like Starbucks, but I would much rather support local (like this one!)

Without a doubt, this has to be one of the most enjoyable experiences I've had at a coffee bar ever…read moreand I am not exaggerating. The vibe was chill and barista/owner could not have been nicer. He was giving me little coffee samples along with telling me about the different types of coffee they offered. He literally could teach a master class in coffee. Such a wonderful human being. I ended up getting a lightly iced Suave Mente, which was 2 shots of espresso, a heaping spoonful of Nutella and steamed milk of your choice. I chose oat milk. The texture was perfectly frothy, just the way I like it and the taste was smooth, sweet and sublime. I plan on returning to buy a bag of the local coffee beans to French press at home and try a slice of the lemon almond cake that looked wonderful. Great experience here today.

The cases are lined with every type of cookie you could imagine and they have a plethora of pastries to choose from. They have Italian staples like 7 layer cookies, sprinkle cookies and jelly sandwich cookies. With all the different types of cakes and cannoli's it's hard to pick a favorite. When you walk into the store it feels like you've stepped back in time. It always smells like there is something amazing baking in the back. Keep in mind it's cash only but there is an ATM in the store. Staff is fast and friendly (as friendly as New Yorkers can get).

On a recent visit to see a relative, I had to stop by and grab some, and I'm thrilled to say they're just as amazing as I remember. While so many things have changed for the worse since the pandemic, their cookies remain the best; rich, flavorful, and absolutely worth it. My only regret? Not buying more! Ambiance; when you walk in there are cakes and cookies everywhere making it hard to stay focus A few tips: They're CASH ONLY, so come prepared. The service was fine, but there's no seating area, so plan to enjoy your treats elsewhere. Trust me, these cookies are worth it!

The lady working there today was very rude and impatient with me and I will never again support this business. I ordered the rolls, the sweet biscuits and one of each patty. She gave me all of the patties in the same bag and I asked her how can I tell which patty is the fish. The woman sucked her teeth so loud and then proceeded as if I was bothering her. She lacks the most basic of customer service skills. She should not be allowed to interact with customers ....ever!!! I told her that I will leave a terrible review and she laughed. I am only 1 person but I will never spend another $1 here.
