    Great working cafe with lots of outlets and space. There's tables right when you enter and further back. There's also a bathroom. The honey oat latte was decent; it didn't taste too different than anything I've already had. If you like sweet things, you'll enjoy it.

    Cold Brew - Lemon Loaf Gluten-Free

    Pricey... one size $4.25 Cold Brew, $4 pre-bottled. But worth it! LONG-lasting caffeine fix. Many of the pastries are gluten free and/or vegan and still moist af. Sometimes they're not labeled (esp for the weekday early birds coming in at 7:01am), so ask and be mindful of the contamination notice on the glass. Review of gf pastries RANKED-- Lemon Loaf $4 - Best deal. Can't go wrong. Like cake Citrus Olive Oil Bundt $5 - Smaller but more filling than the Lemon Loaf because it's suuper saturated with olive oil. ~~Read: moiiisssttt~~ Banana Walnut Muffin $3.50 - Great and also vegan! But lacking the VIP "muffin top" =(

    Underwhelming. For a $4-5 coffee drink, the cappuccino looked and tasted similar to what I'd expect to get at a gas station. This is only an issue with this particular grumpy location - the others are great. I suspect the barista wasn't trained or didn't know how to make espresso drinks, but given that grumpy's differentiation with, say, dunkin donuts, is coffee quality, this was really disappointing. Won't come here again, and if you find yourself in greenpoint is suggest you go to odd fox or homecoming instead. Excellent coffee shops with talented baristas.

    All price and no size makes Jack a grumpy boy.

    Ordered iced mocha that was approaching $7 and maybe maxed out at 12 ounces. For the rest of the day I was grumpy. Ah, ha, I get it now.

You've really went downhill. Everything is dreadfully smaller for the same price. You used to have a giant fluffy egg square on your breakfast sandwich and now I've gotten one lumpy small egg drenched in so much overly spicy sauce - that used to be more soft and palatable, I can't even taste anything else, to compensate for the lack of sandwich for over $12. Insane. The fries were the highlight of my meal and that's really saying a lot. $6.50 for one of the smallest iced coffees I've ever received... I think you're staying open on highway robbery alone. Or that the gentrifiers just don't give a damn. Honestly, I could've gotten something better at the Bodega for less than $35 after the Uber fees. I feel bad leaving this honestly, but... how you go from such a wonderfully established place to some dreadful experience is just sad. Do better, become yourself again, because unfortunately I won't be ordering anymore.

I first ordered a chai latte and he said I could do two different syrups so I got the pumpkin and salted maple, though I was worried about it being too sugary so he suggested I could just do half a pump of each. He asked me what the name of the order would be and I said "Aida" (the phonetic spelling is ah-EE-dah). And then I heard the other barista say something along the lines of, "oh Aida, how about 'Aida' rather not be here", pretty rude if you ask me. And then I ordered the spicy nook sandwich. And when another server called my named to grab it she didn't even knowledge me when I tried to thank her and instead she talked to her coworker while I was right in front of her. The sandwich was really good, so was my chai tea. I really like the pumpkin and salt and maple syrups too. I did like all the options for seating although it was pretty packed. I'd say if you have a big party get there early. By 7pm the whole place was filled. There was a huge majong club that came in and took the whole back area, it was so crammed there were lines for the bathroom. Over all I had a good time. I really like the music too just know it gets very busy in there. The employees I would say were hit or miss. The ones that were great though I really liked. Just seem like the ones who didn't really give attention to customers or were kind of rude seemed like they didn't wanna be there.
