Love this place! Their seasonal drinks are amazing - peep their matcha slushee in the summer. Their WiFi is also strong and they spotlight local entrepreneurs with the goods they sell in the store. The pastries are also great. read more

18 visits, two work trips, one verdict: Botani makes the best coffee in Brooklyn and somehow still can't manage a smile. December: 10 days, twice a day, stone-faced service. Told myself it was the cold. Came back last week for 8 more days -- same energy, still icy, and it's July. So that excuse is dead. I'm not asking for a Cheers-level welcome. I make eye contact, I say thank you, I tipped 20% every single time, until I didn't, because at some point you have to stop rewarding the attitude. You're pulling shots, not saving lives. Relax a little. The coffee's still the best in the neighborhood. That's the only reason this isn't one star. I'll be back in NYC in a month, but you've officially lost a me (and I'm well aware that you are too "cool" to care) read more

Stopped by to grab coffee after placing food order at our local mexican food place nearby to grab a quick coffee and was pleasantly surprised! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior is nice and spacious and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The baristas are super nice and very much enjoyed grabbing coffee. My normal go to is usually just a cortado or black coffee, while my bf likes milkier things like lattes, but their seasonal drinks were super interesting so we got one of those. Mine : Black Forest : espresso + tonic + mocha + vanilla + milk + cherry bitters His : Roasted : Hojicha + vanilla syrup + maple syrup + milk I am a sucker for espresso tonic and also dark chocolate. I really enjoyed my drink. The bitters of chocolate and espresso with the hint of cherry. This was a yum for me! Roasted was very milky and sweet since it had 2 syrups I am assuming, but id recommend it only if you want something super creamy and milky. Overall great local coffee shop to have in the neighborhood. Its great having more options. Would I travel to bed stuy to try it? No. But if I am in bedstuy or nearby and wanted coffee ? Absolutely! Would definitely come back again and having this in our local coffee shop rotation. read more

Took the chance and came here even though I wasn't sure if they had AC, just because I remember reviews that mentioned it felt like a greenhouse here and no AC. Anyways, I decided to not do my go-to coffee shop to meet A and came here instead. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe here is different than the other place that I like, but the people here they seem friendly and cool.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got their Live, Love, Laugh - which is their take on Boba Guys drink, but they made theirs with Raspberry puree and I want to say this was so delicious. I hope they bring this back every season! Croissant was good too! read more

Delicious raspberry mint matcha! One of the most unique and delectable matchas I have tried. The ham and cheese croissant was average, not amazing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute decor and plenty of seating indoors and outdoors.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Bótani Cafè - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute and cozy bare bones coffee shop with a good selection of pastries.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The coffee menu is limited. They don't have any specialty lattes or anything like that. I noticed they also had a good selection of fresh teas. They serve Devocion coffee here which is one of my favorites. I got a great iced latte and a real good yogurt blueberry muffin. The service was friendly and efficient. Their prices are standard for a coffee shop. Would definitely come back here again. read more

Food: 3.5/5 *I tried the matcha latte twice and I enjoy it pretty standard matcha not the strongest but it's okay. I do love that they have the rose syrup which add a very sweet floral taste to my matcha. *I haven't tried any of the food items. But I will say I noticed they had croissants and light pastries nothing heavy. Service: 3/5 service is average nothing to rave about. Be try standard. They do greet you and are pleasant. Ambiance: Standard coffee shop vibe very trendy and minimal. Great space for WFH candidates , or people who just want to get out of the house chit chats and catch up with friends or just have a place to go to get away. It's pretty spacious and they do have outdoor seating. read more

Amazing coffee shop in BedStuy. I get the iced matcha latte with almond milk (add 2-3 brown sugar cubes) and I semi-crush the cubes. The matcha is prepared to each order and tastes amazing. Come by and see why it's such a favorite in the neighborhood read more

This is a great new spot in Bed Stuy. It's super cute and sleek. Very minimalist except for some plants, but the design is cool. It reminds of of the place that used to be a few blocks away, Domicile. The staff are great and even with their large audience they still sometimes remember your drink order. They have outdoor seating and some indoor tables both a community table and some private ones. They always have the alternative milks for those of us "alternative" people and they even allow doggies to be parked up outside. It's a nice vibe there every time even when I'm just rushing to get a drink and get out. They frequently have something like a candle making the place feel and smell warm too. They also have matcha they do well and some pastries and other local products that match their aesthetic. Definitely go and get your morning coffee and vibe reset here. read more

Had a great caramel cold brew coffee here. The cashier was very friendly and helpful with assisting me on my order. The vibes are really cute inside, all of the greenery. Gets a bit crowed with everyone sitting on their laptops. But I will definitely come back to treat myself to a ice coffee and perhaps try something else on the menu read more

The vibes here are terrible. It is always too hot, too humid, like walking into a greenhouse. No breeze, stale air, terrible customer vibes. Cashier had no change, no lids, no vibes. read more

I've been twice the last two days and it's just terrible vibes all around. Like a previous reviewer said, it's disgustingly hot and humid in the space and NO fans for anyone, employees included, unless that's what they're going for as a "greenhouse" or whatever despite there being little to no plants inside. The employees are rude as all hell who make it obvious they'd like to be anywhere else than being the slightest hint of friendly towards anyone (I get it, we all hate our jobs and there's no ac, but jesus, dude) and I hate places that only have their menus RIGHT at the register so you have to make a split decision on what you want or risk holding up the line. In previous review photos their menu was on the wall so idk why they decided to put it on a single sheet that you don't see until you're ordering. Stupid decision. The first day I visited I was next in line for a solid 5 minutes because both baristas were talking to their friends that were currently ordering and I sweat through my shirt just standing there (see previous comment on how hot and humid this tiny space is). Just take their order and talk to them while making their drinks - hopefully people know how to multitask especially when there's a line that's almost out the door during that moment. Unfortunately, the coffee was mediocre at best. Got a vanilla latte then a chai on different days, both honestly tasted like mud after 3 sips and spent close to $10 on each which is insane because the chai is just a premade concentrate that you add milk to. I would give one star, but the almond croissant I had was actually pretty good and the outdoor seating in the shade is nice, but that's it. There's less mediocre places in Bed-Stuy to get coffee, go there. read more

My friend's boyfriend works here and it's owned by a Filipino person so love that! Bright lighting and cute plants. I got a chai latte with whole milk and it had a really lovely hint of spice I enjoyed with a nicely textured foamy milk throughout! The barista had on cute pants today. read more

I've come here quite a bit because I live around the corner and just liked it because it was super spacious and decent coffee + pastries ... but today I felt god here. I spilled my matcha latte all over my MacBook and was freaking out and immediately the baristas swooped in and helped me clean up ... I was swearing like crazy and they were so nice... they even made me another drink without me asking which I wasn't even expecting...thank you read more

Good coffee. Great people. Nicely done minimalist vibe. Music is on point. Just an all around excellent neighborhood cafe.

Used to like this spot a lot but these days they play the loudest yassified house top 40 mixes like Beyoncé, SZA, insert 150bpm female pop princess here, bumped up to 10. Have no problem with these artists it's just 11am on Tuesday and I'm trying to do some work. Maybe it's to keep foot traffic up and prevent people from parking up for too long. If so, it's working. read more

@cafeandbotani nice coffee or matcha place on a quiet Bed-Stuy corner. Sit outside, take a break, sip on an oat matcha and enjoy life in Brooklyn. read more

Walking around The neighborhood in need of a warm fall beverage, this Cafè is definitely a go-to for me. I was greeted at the door with a compliment and stayed for awhile to work. The people there are dope as well as the employees. If you're looking for a chill spot to write, read, or work in the area. This one should do the trick read more

My new favorite place! Sadly I'm not in the neighborhood, but it's worth the trip for the lovely atmosphere and great coffee. I also got to try their overnight oats, and they're delicious! Thanks y'all! read more
