It's a very busy cafe because people love to hang inside... it's super cozy to lounge around in. But despite it being busy, the guys working behind the counter work quickly to get you your order. There are some coffee choices that don't have a dairy alternative option so take notice of that and ask questions when you order. They have oat milk and I always get that with my lattes. If I just want straight up espresso than obviously... no need to worry about milk! Lol. I always eye their pastries and bread but I have yet to get others... I've only ever gotten their sabayah here and I love it. Make sure you ask for it warmed up. Their lattes are pretty classic to how Yemeni cafes do it. If you're not used to Yemeni cafes, the coffee is strong and bold; has a great nutty taste to it along with it. All in all, a great place to lounge at but also doubles as a fabulous grab and go spot for coffee and some treats.

I finally moved to an open spot in the front and that was lovely. Don't love the back area. The front area is the best place to sit. Great light and people watching. I would come back for a quick afternoon snack.

Cousin John's offers table service with an extensive menu with omelets, pancakes, French toast and salad. Our server was helpful and very patient with us making our selections. I chose The Berkeley omelette which was pretty good. It came with a delicious salad and fried potatoes that weren't too greasy. Our group also ordered the build your own 3 egg omelette and avocado toast with 2 eggs on top. I also wanted to taste the French toast and I ordered 1 piece. It was all very tasty and satisfying, we left feeling really good. My black coffee was very good and my wife enjoyed her latte with almond milk. The price for our meal was reasonable. I'd highly recommend Cousin John's.

My friend got the rose velvet latte and she agreed it was also a very good latte. The barista was very kind as well. It's a pretty small spot to grab a seat and read or chat with a friend. All the seats were taken inside and we had to squeeze around a bit, but overall a really good spot for a latte!

The crunchy chocolate shell is actually really good. Coffee is moderately priced, pastries are a little expensive--but that's NYC + a viral trend.

The staff…read morewas extremely friendly and helpful, walking me through my extensive questions and let me sample their alpine soda. I ordered the red endive salad to start. A colorful plate of red leaves, brown candied pecans, white ricotta, and dark blood orange slices- seasoned with a vinaigrette. The palette of the salad was bitter/acidic, but smooths out with the shredded ricotta and pleasantly penetrates with the occasional sweet crunch of the candied pecans. (8/10) I ordered the omelette and the fingerling potatoes. Omelette was pretty, and was pretty solid (hard to compare and nothing to judge). The fingerling potatoes were interesting in that the sauce was whipped/foamed up, which gave it a much lighter, airier texture as opposed to a thick, heavy mayonnaise dip. (7.25/10) I love the interior of Cafe Mado, you enter the restaurant and walk right alongside the kitchen, which is an engaging first impression. This is contrasted with the majority of the restaurant's space, which features quiet seating, and the back atrium is so pretty. Cannot wait to try Cafe Mado for dinner, or when they change the menu (allegedly every other week or so)!
