Otherwise, it's another coffee place. :) That being said, the building and the interior are worthy of your time to stop in, especially if you are looking for a coffee and, like me, do not want to go to just another Starbucks or other typical coffee place. It's an old bank and they kept that esthetic, from the lobby and teller stations to the bank vault in the back. The prices here are very similar to other coffee places yet you are getting a completely different and elevated experience. :)

Very cool and unique breakfast spot. You can order baked items to go or have a sit-down brunch. We…read moreopted for brunch and were seated right away. Stepping into this restaurant felt like I had traveled back in time, as it's built right inside a beautifully preserved historic bank. You can walk inside the vault and play a game of chess. The teller window is now the area where you place your food order. Our table resembled an old desk where you'd open a savings account and chat about life with the banker. I was looking forward to having their NYC's Best French Toast, so I was pretty disappointed when they told me that they don't offer it on weekends. So I decided to try the Eggs Benedict instead, which was good. My wife ordered the Avocado Toast and she was not happy that the bread was incredibly hard to cut (even after was asked for a sharper knife). Overall, I enjoyed the ambience at Conwell Hall. If I'm back in the city for brunch on a weekday, I might return to try their French Toast.

My friend told me to meet her at the Bibliotheque, and so I did, not knowing what I am walking into…read more(no googling before hand). Wow, what a beautiful space! When you enter there is a bar you can sit at and two large high top tables next to it. As you walk further in there is a lounge with couches and various sizes tables. The whole space is surrounded by books! Heaven! We ordered a chai, matcha and a ginger cookie. Shout out to the woman taking my order for comping me my drink for my birthday! Everyone from the staff was friendly - I really enjoyed being there. The only thing I would say is someone should come by to check on the tables more often as I had to return other people's abandoned drinks. But you know what first world problems, am I right? Maybe they can have a sign or mention to customers to return their own cups before leaving. I sort of can't imagine why people don't... It is quite popular spot so you need to be very patient and strategic if you want to grab a table, as well as sprinkled with a little bit of luck. We unfortunately got there a little late. I went there at 3pm and hunted for a table and my friend got there by 330pm. By the time we ordered and started drinking our coffees - we were informed the lounge area will be closed at 4pm to prepare for the evening wine bar. Oh right this cafe turns into a wine bar in the evenings! How cool! At 4pm we thankfully grabbed one of the high tables - sharing it with another couple but it was large enough for the 4 of us. The lights dimmed and the atmosphere changed to more intimate. We unfortunately had to leave at 5pm, but I imagined picking up a James Baldwin book, ordering some white wine and enjoying both.... Mmm definitely next time. Maybe sometimes after work - sounds like a great wind down.

What an amazing place for breakfast or brunch!…read more I went there for breakfast however the place was packed and I couldn't wait for a table so my only option was taking it to go. I got the Holy Shishito which was scrambled eggs with shishito peppers, cheddar, lemon aioli and chili flakes on a piece of sourdough bread. What an amazing and full of flavor sandwich! I truly enjoyed eating this! I'm certainly coming back here to try other things on the menu!

Come to Koré Coffee for their Croffle which is my primary purpose for my visit. Koré Coffee is located at 26A Elizabeth Street, Chinatown, Manhattan, NYC. Customer service is average with patience as I doomed scroll my Yelp app for a photo of my coveted pastry since I was unable to describe in words. Four stars, there are no tea options (hot or cold) available. No comment for the coffee or latte as I did not purchase any. I do not drink coffee in any shape or form. No restroom facilities are located on premise because this business does not meet the NYC bathroom requirements for mandatory facility of having 20 or more seats. Matcha Croffle with strawberries $11.00 (with NYC sales tax $11.98) It was served on a small plate. The Matcha green tea cream was refreshing delight as well as the strawberries. The waffle was good. I always have a predilection for waffles. It was filling as dessert for lunch or morning brunch. I enjoyed mine seated as I did not want the Matcha to spill into the bag or on my lap along with the strawberries dropped for loss. WiFi access is available. Business cards are available which also serve as a loyalty card where the tenth paid purchase enable "buy 10 coffees, get 1 free." I did obtain my sales receipt amid my payment method was by credit/ debit card. https://kor-coffee.wheree.com/menu
