It's a cute cafe in a beautiful location. We were able to walk in on a saturday around noon and get a table for 5. The breakfast options all sounded delicious. I opted for the BL big brekkie and we got the lemon ricotta waffles for the table. both were absolutely delicious! prizes are good too (we ended up paying $150 for 6 dishes and 5 beverages including tip and tax!). read more

I was a diehard fan of Bluestone Lane back when they first opened in the NYC and Australian breakfasts of smashed avocado toasts and flat whites were all the rage. But the service here on a recent trip really soured the memory. Our first visit, we stopped by to grab an espresso for our walk; as we were heading back, I wanted to stop by and grab a soda only to be told loudly by this one waitress, "We're closed." It was 5:01, which, fair enough, they close at 5. But she gave us this odd condescending smile that I brushed off as a one-off and possibly me being weird. Then the next day, we stopped by again with a friend. We were a bit indecisive as to whether we were going to order any food and/or take it to go or order it at one of the outside tables. In the end, we decided to just get some coffee and pastries to eat at the hotel but at one point, the same waitress as the day before very visibly rolled her eyes. I guess at the inconvenience of dealing with our dilly dallying. I got the distinct impression she was seconds away from complaining about us as soon as we turned our backs. Whatever. A comically absurd amount of other options within walking distance to not have to put up with the rudeness here. Plus, the chocolate croissant was horrible - stale, barely any chocolate, tasteless. I ate it only because I was exhausted. read more

We stopped in for lunch, and the sandwiches were amazing! They were so light and fresh, perfect for a hot summer day! The prices weren't bad and the staff was nice. The inside was clean and bustling with everyone there. read more

Ordinarily would not complain about something like this but I've been here for morning coffee a dozen times after dropping my son off for practice as Asphalt Green and I won't be back after today. For what it's worth, I liked this place because it's open early and the coffee is a solid "good." Not remarkable, but fits squarely within the tier of quality that is slightly better than Starbucks but not anything memorable. Like, a solid B+ coffee shop. Today I came in as I usually do with my 20oz Yeti and ordered a large. Today the guy tells me they're large as are only 16 oz, so would a partial pour be okay. I just wanted coffee so I rolled my eyes inside and said sure. But something about seeing a mug that looked 2/3 full annoyed the sh*t out of me. That's entirely a me problem but still, I can't imagine they would lose more money by giving me *4oz* of coffee (e.g. not liquid gold) vs what they're saving on the price of the printed cup and lid. But I'm polite so I turned around and ordered a small so I could fill my mug, make myself happy, and have a little extra coffee. I was content to follow the rules, be nice about it, and just never come back to a place that's going to nickel-&-dime me over some hot water and probably 4 beans worth of coffee. The reason I'm publicly airing this is because after all that, my final sip from my mug was straight up a mouthful of sludgy grinds. It was so much (I took a big sip) that I almost gagged at the dog park and hand to walk home with a dry mouth full of coffee grinds. Check out the aftermath of my mug in the photo. So my advice to this place is to learn to thread the needle between a little goodwill that will invest in customer retention and being an absolute cheapskate who happens to not really train their people on basic quality control. Good luck but your coffee isn't any different than any of the other 600 places downtown who charge $4-5 for a cup of drip, so I'll say it was nice-ish while it lasted. read more

Such a cute&convenient little coffee spot! Stopped by to pick up my morning coffee. The barista was very friendly and patient as we took some time looking at the menu. Drip Coffee was great, and the mocha was delicious The white chocolate oatmeal cookie was phenomenal! They do have an indoor/outdoor dine in option that looked great, but we just picked something up on the go. Would definitely come back! read more

The decor is nice, but it's crammed. The main issue we had was everything was luke warm. The hot chocolate was basically luke warm steamed milk (how do you call it hot chocolate?) They also forgot one of the drinks. If everything were a little hotter, it would have been so much better. read more

I came in a large group and got some fries. The fries had no flavor whatsoever. I added salt and pepper but it could not redeem the dish. The fries come with a side of ketchup and a white unidentified sauce that is watery and also does not have flavor. I had other friends who ordered fries and did not finished them either. The cafe manager promptly removed our dishes as soon as we finished eating which was rude. Considering that you pay beforehand, that was not needed since the cafe was not even full. Your local Chinese spot has better fries for $5.95. The reviews are correct, customer service is spotty at best. read more

I've had Bluestone Lane back in LA and decided to get it again here in NY. The Battery Park location is conveniently located close to me and super cute. Friendly employees, but slow service and nasty scone. Iced oat latte (4/5): Standard latte that's pretty difficult to mess up. No complaints as it tasted fine. Cheddar scone (1/5): Worst pastry ever. The scone was so dry that the texture tasted like saw dust in my mouth... It was NOT light and fluffy, and definitely DID NOT have a rich savory cheddar cheese flavor. I literally took two bites and threw the rest away lol. read more

Bluestone Lane is an Australian-inspired coffee shop and cafe, and they have many locations all over (Cayman Islands, Boston, NJ, San Francisco, etc.). The menu offerings is extensive, as they have breakfast that's available all day, lunch items, and coffee/smoothies/juices/teas. We came here for breakfast, and I tried: +the Avocado Smash - with sheep's milk feta, heirloom tomatoes, and herbs on a toasted multigrain; definitely would have to consume this right away as the toast can get soggy after a while; the ingredients were fresh +the Magic - a less diluted version of a flat white, this was prepared with two shots of espresso with steamed milk and a micro foam; this was nice and strong a good pick-me-up in the morning Service was a little slow and there didn't seem any sense of urgency. The cafe itself is cute with warm colors; kind of feels like you're by the oceanside. +slow service read more

greatest tropical smoothie I've ever had. shout to to Jake always super friendly. My daily spot

Bluestone Lane was right across from our hotel and I was excited to give it a try. Their menu offered both "brekkie" and lunch options. I opted for an Avocado Smash with a side of bacon and the hubby ordered the B.L.A.T.E.; consisting of bacon, lettuce (arugula), avocado, tomato, and an egg on a brioche. Hubby was stuffed for hours. My Avocado Smash came with bacon on top although I wanted it as a side. Not a problem, I just slid them off. The portion was huge and they were not cheap with the avocado; huge plus. I had a harder time slicing into the toast but over it was super fulfilling. I also ordered the vanilla oat latte which seemed like a pre-made/pre-packaged coffee. Although it did the job, it didn't quite hit the spot like a fresh made latte. Service was friendly. You can see the servers double check the food prior to it going out to the customers. I saw them push my order back to add more bacon on my plate. Nice! read more

5 big ones MOITE! Best Coffee in Battery Park, Maybe the Whole Universe I came for the coffee, I stayed for the vibe. Bluestone Lane Battery Park is like a tiny slice of Australia (minus the kangaroos, sadly) right in the heart of NYC. The avocado toast? It's like they harvested the avocados from a garden of dreams. The flat white? I honestly thought it might be made with magic. If coffee could give you a hug, this would be it. The baristas? Absolute legends. I think one of them might actually be a wizard. They somehow knew my order before I even said it. It's either magic or they just have a sixth sense for caffeine addicts--either way, I'm here for it. Plus, the atmosphere is perfect for pretending you're a local who has their life together. You'll feel like you're in an upscale coffee ad, but without the pressure of looking perfect or knowing what a "cold brew" actually is. Highly recommend. I'm already plotting my next visit. The only downside? My expectations for coffee anywhere else in NYC are now set astronomically high. Thanks a lot, Bluestone Lane, Ricardo & the Team read more

I came here for breakfast and tea. I had the Athlete's Burrito and a chamomile tea. The burrito was good in general, but definitely quite overpriced. It came with some salad and some nice tangy dressing. And the chamomile tea was real loose leaf chamomile. The service is great! The staff seem like they really like working there and are very friendly. The ambiance is quite nice, its a nice warm space with some seating in the back. It feels like a little portal into a homey seaside cafe. read more

Food was outstanding. But service was horrible. We didn't even get a "hello" or "welcome". Super negative staff. Couldn't give us a smile or even speak. Also, there was a bird in the middle of the lobby flying all around. Very tiny inside. Food took a while, my friend had to wait an extra 10 minutes on his food because they said his dropped on the floor and couldn't apologize or say anything... I left a 25% tip just because.. whatever I'll never be back.atmosphere was small but clean. And it was pricey. read more

Was pleasantly surprised by how cute the seating area was! My flat white was pretty good - better than many of the other coffee shops in the area, and the bowl was also really yummy! Just enough veggies to keep me going for the day, and the scrambled eggs were so perfect! Kinda pricey for lunch once you add them up, so maybe a once in a while thing! read more

Pros: menu choices for breakfast/lunch, drinks, location, free wifi Cons: service can be slow, pricey We've come to this location by the Brookfield Place mall several times, and what keeps us coming up is that the food tastes great and there are a lot of healthy choices like their athlete burrito and their avocado toast. Pro tip: order their banana bread if they have it (they often run out). It's delicious. We would probably come here and just order banana bread and walk away happy. read more

3.5 stars. The business model here is pretty simple. Good coffee, limited menu, fresh ingredients. They pull it off well. Most dishes are a combinations of breakfast items (eggs and bacon, toast) plus some greens. This can be in various forms including avocado toast or bowls. This is one of many locations but it's relatively new. They seem to be dealing with Covid well, and we had no safety concerns when we visited. Only minor comments we had about the food were that the amount of greens in the bowl seemed less than other locations (could be because we came near closing), and that the poached eggs were slightly overdone and some parts tasted like there was too much vinegar in the poaching water. But these were not show stoppers by any means. I would certainly return, and I encourage others to go here. read more

Overall this is a good place to meet a friend for coffee or get a little casual work done. The atmosphere is bright and airy (though not very quiet) and the food is fresh. The coffee and hot teas are probably the best reason to come here. I've been 10 or so times since opening to work or to grab a matcha before a walk with a friend. The food is a bit slow but that's fine with me as I've been dining in and working! I would say it's not a place to come if you're in a big rush, but they have been improving on timing since opening. I recommend the plain coffee late, the tumeric health late, and the best friends bowl. (I would order eggs scrambled here for the best experience!) The tables are big and comfortable for both indoor and outdoor seating. Will be back many more times I'm sure! read more

Food was great. Service is great. Carlos is the best server. The scenery was really epic and the position is perfect.

Really cute cafe. The interior is really nice and pretty. I came here after a rumble boxing workout and was excited about the smoothie! It def tasted more sour than I expected but it was super filling. The chili egg scramble was very interesting combination of items, and was more spicy than I liked. The chimichurri breakfast also had unique and interesting flavors -- not spicy. Overall was very filled from the food. read more

I had high hopes for this place. The menu is cool, I love the healthy options. The execution wasn't ideal. The way you order through your phone takes a bit from the experience. I ordered an egg sandwich, but it was so large I couldn't eat it as a sandwich. The avocado spread was unfortunately sour and the potatoes that came on the side were cold in the middle as well. Great matcha lattes though! Cute location. read more

just mid, as the kids say.. Went on a semi-busy weekday morning a bit before noon - there were a few people in line in front of me, and a few seated. Thought the indoor eating area was nice - felt roomy and light. Construction was happening in the back dining area/kitchen area, which made for a cluttered kitchen area, so maybe my mediocre experience was a temporary situation. waited a good 10+ min for a breakfast smoothie that was very watery and weirdly lemony. service was pleasant despite being overwhelmed and working in tight quarters with things being knocked over left and right. Chaotic vibes. read more

This was a nice place to be able to eat outside and was very near our hotel. I liked the decor, sort of a beach atmosphere. We were able to eat outside and the food was very good & fresh.
