Stopped by before a job interview on a Friday afternoon at 2:20pm. I went straight to the self…read moreservice screen and ordered a mango matcha with oat milk. The ambiance in here was nice and welcoming, lots of open tables to sit at and a handful of customers on laptops. It was nice and peaceful with music playing at a good volume. My drink came out quick. I was a bit worried about the color of the matcha since it was a little oxidized but the drink was really good. The mango milk used in the matcha wasn't too sweet and the drink tasted good when mixed together. Thought it was a bit on the pricier side - $9.26 for the small (docked a star off for that), I'd probably order it again. I def want to try the food on the menu next time I come in.

This coffee shop is under an NYU dorm, and is one of very few places in Manhattan that encourages…read morehanging out on a laptop and studying. The shop itself aims for function over style and has been thoughtfully laid out to maximize seating space. In addition, the shop has much longer hours than most Manhattan coffee shops, closing at 10 p.m. They offer a large selection of Asian comfort meals, pastries, sandwiches, and a large variety of drinks ranging from coffee and lattes to bubble tea. I am actually surprised how much variety the shop seems to have, given they generally have one barista and one cook working. In terms of the products themselves, it's comfort food, so don't expect it to be the best version of whatever you are having. Generally, most food and drinks are going to be "good" rather than "excellent/mind-blowing." If you happen to come on a day when Sammy is the barista, order a cappuccino, latte, or a pour-over, as Sammy is an award-winning barista. However, recognize that this isn't a third wave coffee shop an instead a neighborhood shop. Coffee enthusiasts should consider La Cabra or Hi Collar which are around the corner and have excellent pour over coffee programs. If you are looking for a Manhattan based coffee shop that suitable for hanging out for hours, this is one of the only places in Lower Manhattan that is suitable for extended work sessions.

As someone who is frequently working and out the door by then, this is a huge win! I got the iced maple latte with oat milk. I liked it just fine. It was a good balance of milky-coffee-sweet. I couldn't really taste how this was different from a vanilla latte, but I like vanilla lattes so it doesn't really matter. Possibly it was a bit more deeper and aromatic in its sweetness but I can't say with 100% certainty. At the end of the day, I needed caffeine early in the morning and Saltwater was able to deliver. As others have mentioned the size of the coffee is impressive compared to other local shops.

The Swedish Meatball sandwich I got feels very Panera-esque, however when deconstructed something more beautiful appears. The meatballs taste great with the sweetness of the lingonberry jam, the pickles give it an extra contrast to the sweet jam and savory meatballs. The bread can work either as toast or a sandwich, though the latter made me feel slightly nauseated because of how dense the bread is. The hot chocolate is rich but delightful too. The cute heart shape the foam forms feels inviting and warm. It essentially was telling me to make another visit, and while I cannot promise one soon, recommending it is something I can do heartedly. Lastly, the cardamom cinnamon bun is extremely flavorful and super sinful. If this is how the Scandinavians make their cinnamon buns, I fear I may have just gone up a pants size because this is one dangerous bun. I thought Iceland ruined cinnamon buns for me here, but Sweden may have overtaken it. Time will tell. For a nice Scandinavian take on things, this is perfectly acceptable.

The lingonberry topping called out my name. This café's a low key, tasteful space. Also saw the baked goods, including small Cardamom Buns that looked similar to one of my favorite Nordic baked goods, Finnish cinnamon rolls, which also have cardamom. So, ordered the sandwich, the bun, and an iced tea. The Swedish Meatball Sandwich, came with meatballs of 100% grass-fed beef and local ground turkey, organic lingonberries, and pickled dill cucumbers. Everything was tasty! That being said, considering the amount of food, it reached over $25, making me think this café experience was pricey. They do have something so frequent patrons can get points, but that's quite far from where I am regularly. If you're in Tribeca, though, would definitely recommend checking Kaffe Åre out.

I could not decide for the life of me between two of the drinks. The Moka Mo which is the signature latte here made with honey, cardamom and cinnamon. The other speciality latte was called the Brown Sugar Maple one. This one had house made brown sugar syrup with a cinnamon cold foam. I got the Brown sugar maple one and then a few min later I decided to also get the Moka Mo. The Brown sugar maple was a bit on the sweeter side the barista told me. She made it a little less sweet for me. Though it was still sweet a bit. I thought the moka mo was kind of bitter and did not taste to my liking. So I liked the brown sugar maple better. And the foam on top was the best part. Not sure if there is different coffee used in these drinks but the coffee tasted a bit better in the brown sugar maple one. This shop has a few tables inside to enjoy your pastries and coffee at. The Pastries looked amazing as well but I did not have any.
