Nice coffee shop in downtown Brooklyn. It's kind of tucked away but it was a lucky find. I'm new to the area and I like finding new places to get coffee. Very nice baristas. I'll return. read more

Great service, was looking for some espresso beans and was advised on the right blend. Haven't come across this level of service and the shots are tasty! read more

We were walking toward the Brooklyn Bridge and happened upon this charming little coffee shop. It felt like the perfect spot for a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, so we ducked inside. I ordered the maple latte, and my husband got a cortado. The espresso flavor came through strong in both drinks, which we loved. The maple latte had just the right sweetness for me--warm, comforting, and a great treat after sightseeing. The atmosphere was cozy, relaxed, and a great change of pace from the busy city streets. If we weren't on a tight schedule, I would've happily lingered here with a book. A lovely stop if you're walking the Brooklyn Bridge and want a delicious coffee break! read more

Brooklyn Roasting Company - Maple Matcha - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

After a long day training run downtown and across the Brooklyn Bridge I found my way to this funky chill coffee shop. Very fairly priced hot and iced coffees. A small but nice selection of pastries and snacks. Table and bench seating, along with window stools. They sell their own blends of coffee by the bag and teas too. It's a cozy feeling retro vibe here and specious. It's kind catty cornered next to a library so you might miss it if you don't see the signage. Worth a try if in this neighborhood. read more

I could have sworn I already wrote a review for the Brooklyn Heights location of the BRC but as I absolutely adore this cafe and staff, I am happy to write another well-deserved 5-star review for them. The cafe is on a quiet stretch of Clinton St, right behind the library. The space is fairly big and there always is seating available. Their coffee is great and they also sell a ton of different blends (my favorites include their Iris and their Japan blends!) in store and online too. But, I am quite partial to their teas, which is sourced from Serendipitea. There's free wifi and some delicious snack options too, making this an excellent spot to catch up on a little reading or work. PS- Found my original review: BRC continues to absolutely kill it. The staff here are the literal best and more people need to visit this amazing little cafe instead of the soulless Starbucks and Blank Street on Montague. Let me set the scene: I came in looking like I just survived a tornado, carrying books and a bottle of cough syrup I just bought from CVS the next street over because I forgot to bring a reusable bag. It's day 2 of this terrible cold I've just caught and I stumbled in looking for maybe something warm to drink. I ask if they have tea, and the barista (whom I've forgotten to ask for her name because I was very under the weather) takes one look at the cough syrup in my hand and suggests tea. There's no tea menu so I ask what kind of tea they have and she says she'll make me a ginger tea and add some lemon juice and honey to it. Two bags of delicious, warming, soothing ginger tea from Serendipitea at no extra charge with some extra vitamin C from the lemon juice. She even filled my thermos with hot water so I could refill my tea for the rest of the morning while I cranked out some papers. I felt like I was just thrown a lifesaver and was now pulled to safety. I'm devoted to this cafe FOR LIFE. Seriously guys, this place is incredible and not just for their coffee but for the human touch. Keep it up BRC, y'all are the best! read more

Not as good as it used to be! After Covid, they re-opened with new owners who apparently concentrate on the mail order business. It's located on the other side of the block from the public library, so I've been after borrowing or returning books. In the early afternoon the pastries are stale and crumbly and the coffee, although expensive tastes stale. The personnel are genuinely nice, as are the clientele, but I always feel that I've paid too much. (Please note that I frequently go to places specializing in coffee all around town.) I don't stop there anymore. read more

Stopped by for a cold brew after a humid walk across the bridge. The cold brew was decent but nothing spectacular. Fairly spacious interior with lots of AC! read more

Funny location, kind of hidden behind the library, but surprisingly spacious once you're inside. Lots of tables and seats with power outlets! Accessible gender neutral restroom in the back. The service is spectacular and the espresso is perfectly prepared. They have a great selection of sweets, though unfortunately none of the sandwiches are vegetarian. Protip: if you're here near the end of the day, you might get a pastry for half price (if they have any left!). read more

On my recent NY trip my friends and I were excited to go and see the Brooklyn Bridge. Somehow we ended up on the wrong side for our start point. It ended up being a good thing because it put us right down the road from an Brooklyn Roasting Company location. Ambiance/vibe - The location was tucked in right next to the Brooklyn Library. It was bright, colorful, and so cozy. The branding was also adorable. Staff - The two people working counter were nice and helpful. They seemed to be having such a positive time which made the whole place brighter. Food - There were not a ton of food options, and we did not get to try any of the snacks they had Drinks - with the cold temperatures and having just had coffee an hour before, our entire group opted for hot chocolates. I went with their special strawberry hot chocolate with an added single shot of espresso. It was the perfect drink to warm up. It was subtle and not too overpoweringly sweet. Overall I would give this shop a 4/5 s. The vibe was truly everything. I honestly can't wait to get the chance to go back one day and also try some of their coffee drinks. read more

Visiting my son in Brooklyn and found this great coffee place on my way to Dumbo. Excellent Americano and was able to get out of the freezing wind & cold. Best music playing inside added to the experience. read more

Good coffee, good pastries, good service. And the coffee shop is big enough to be able to grab a seat too.

My office uses beans from Brooklyn Roasting and I really enjoy their coffee! My favorite one so far has been the Mexico beans. Also got a great latte here. The barista is very nice and the shop has a really cozy vibe with calm music. Probably would be a good spot to get some work done. read more

Wanted to sit and relax with an iced coffee but the lady working said she was cleaning the espresso machines. So essentially the cafe was closed... 40 minutes before closing. If you want to close at 4, just put that as the hours. Don't say it's 5 but your espresso is done for the day at 4:20. read more

Used to love this place. Good coffee, decent service. But, there are a million places that do that. What set this place apart was the lunch options. They had these lunch sized pot pies that were awesome, but they don't have them anymore, so i stopped going. Now they're just another coffee shop with decent branding. read more

Nice cozy spot to relax and enjoy a great cup of coffee! Loved the old tables and art on the wall. You can't see the shop off the main road it's just in the back. read more

I used to 'live' at the Brooklyn Roasting Company in Dumbo, pre-pandemic, and was thrilled when a branch opened behind the library in Brooklyn Heights, 100 yards from my apartment. Even though I make coffee at home, I always head over to this cosy spot. Great coffee of course, with a good variety of sweets and savories, but I mostly go for the staff, who are out of this world patient and friendly. They are very kind when large groups of students burst in, as well as to the rest of us. It feels like an old-fashioned cafe, in that I have met people to talk to about books and art, and chatted with visitors from foreign lands (Denmark, Colorado, Manhattan :) ...Once again, the baristas and managers create a wonderful atmosphere. read more

If you are looking for a local coffee shop with a friendly Brooklyn vibe this place is it. The variety of coffees served are seasonal and change frequently. The staff is friendly. There is a clean restroom. I have become a rgular there and am happy to sit inside or at a table outside. read more
