Cawfee and WiFi. A nice place to surf the web. Gelato and waffles too! My kind of cawfee joint. Nifty little spot for a coffee drink, snack, and free strong WiFi in relaxed surroundings. Cozy seating, spiffy woodsy looking decor, soft music, and a clean bathroom. Not that many outlets though so make sure you're charged up beforehand. Only a few located by some tables near the back. Friendly staff working the counter. One unisex bathroom that a key code is needed to enter, and you receive that along with the wifi code on your receipt from your purchase. The iced coffee is tasty as are the eats here. Many desserts to nosh on. Decently priced. Bright and airy space with tables and window counter seating. Was nice and empty on a late Friday afternoon other than a few having coffee and surfing the web. Nice alternative to other chain coffee spots, and definitely a more civilized place to get some work done and suck up some free WiFi. read more

I went to this cafe on a whim and sadly I regret it. I was expecting something great since the rating was so high. I ordered a latte and an open faced sandwich with avocado, scrambled egg and salmon. The coffee was just ok, but I was completely disgusted by what they presented to me for the sandwich. It was small for the price and tasted fake. The eggs tasted like they were made from powder, the avocado was so blended and thinned out it was more like a spread or dip. And I could taste all the additives in that 'avocado' . Probably the only thing real was the salmon and bread, cause how can you fake that. Needless to say I will not be going back here ever, and if you want real food don't bother to visit this place. read more

A Monday afternoon in August and I don't usually do this but I decided to stop at this place and treat myself to kill some time away from the outdoor madness on Canal St. Upon entering it felt very cozy. Lots of wood. Wooden tables, seating, a lovely well decorated large scale wooden book case. There is much on the menu to choose from, it took me a while to decide. I ended up ordering Breakfast plate #1. I also tried the Guava iced-tea lemonade to go with it. The first thing to arrive at my table was the Guava drink. I wasn't thrilled at first sip but my taste buds seemed to have a change of heart after the next few sips with the food that came after. I found myself absolutely loving this drink! The more I drank the more this flavor made me feel as if I were somewhere relaxing on a tropical beach (contained no alcohol btw). There is just something about the flavor. So they brought the breakfast platter out to my table and It was a big plate, filled with goods (scrambled eggs, pancakes, bacon and salad). It looked great and it tasted even better. I was very pleased. The atmosphere was nice. Incoming customers decent. They have outlets by the tables for convenient device charging. I actually really enjoyed eating at this place. It was a pleasant experience and I definitely want to come back here again to try another one of their drinks. The only downfall--the bathroom door from the inside (spray painted with graffiti). [Paint the door you guys!] Otherwise, great! ;) read more

My sister and I were stopping for a quick breakfast, but it was the opposite. I ordered 1 drink and 3 sandwiches. I was hoping for bubble tea, but at 8:15 AM in the morning maybe I was expecting too much. There was poor communication between the waitress and the one other guy working. We waited for 11 minutes with 3 other customers (2 ordered coffee). My chai tea did not come out until the two people who ordered after me got their coffee. The bagels were pretty horrible. Tough to bite into and did not seem fresh. Maybe we ordered something they don't usually do, but overall not too happy. read more

Everytime I'm in the city I make several trips just to get the sakura rose latte or whatever variation of sakura rose drink is in season from this specific caffe bene location. It's pretty much a tradition for me now and I'm not sure what I would do if they took it off the menu. I have also tried the apple chicken grilled cheese sandwich and thought it was pretty good for a chain cafe. However recently I got some macarons there because macaron cafe was closed, those macarons were the hardest and driest macarons I've ever had. I had to toss the whole box out because I couldn't even bite down on them. I've gotten macaron cafe macarons and I know they stay soft for over a week in the fridge (yea I know you're supposed to eat them within days), which means these macarons were probably sitting there for over a week. Still will always be back for that sakura rose latte, and will definitely like to try more freshly made food, but I would suggest passing on the macarons. read more

The calm before the storm. Breakfast in a phlegmatic state before the beginning of the business day at the peripheral areas of Chinatown, NYC. Cozy atmosphere of a old world charming library with custom wood built wall book case complete with actual books and rolling ladder, picture frames, some lamps and wooden tables. Soft background music is playing in the background. I agree with Phil H. as there are insufficient electrical outlets available, thus be sure to leave your home with a full battery. Caffe Bene's signature continuous design video is playing above the order counter of the conception of artisanal light bulbs in industrial pendants. My favorites are their croissant sandwiches, Belgian waffles and macaroon cookies. A whole croissant is given which is quite large. I chosen the classic ham and cheese croissant $4.25 and hot Jasmine tea. Hot teas are offered by Kusmi Tea. Amazingly what began as a leading coffee franchise in South Korea is now global and I can access Caffe Bene in NYC! A quaint cafe. Caffe Bene has bubble tea, but unfortunately not available in the morning. Cashier distribute change and credit/debit cards to patrons in Japanese style: two hands with the bills or the card facing you. One unisex facility is available on site accessible by PIN only.

We also wanted to try a classic pastrami on rye--but without committing to the long lines at Katz's Delicatessen. Sarge's ended up being the perfect alternative, just a quick five-minute walk from our hotel. We arrived around 5:00 pm on a Sunday and were seated right away, which already felt like a win. The meal started with coleslaw and both a half sour and full sour pickle--such a classic deli touch, and a great way to kick things off. I ordered the half sandwich with matzah ball soup, and the portion sizes were no joke. The soup alone could have been a full meal: a huge bowl with an equally massive matzah ball. The broth was warm and soothing, and the matzah ball was incredibly light with a perfect texture. The half pastrami on rye was just as impressive. Even "half" was stacked high with flavorful, tender pastrami. Adding a bit of mustard from the table brought everything together--it was simple, classic, and exactly what I was hoping for. Not only was it one of the more reasonably priced meals of the trip, but it was also genuinely satisfying. If you're looking for a no-fuss, traditional deli experience without the wait, Sarge's is a great option.

Absolutely terrible experience at Sarges Deli. The waitress was incredibly rude from start to…read morefinish, acted annoyed every time we asked for anything, and made us feel unwelcome the entire meal. Service was so bad she deserved no tip whatsoever. On top of that, the food was overpriced and nowhere near worth the attitude. If you want REAL deli quality, good portions, and professional service, save yourself the frustration and go to Katz's instead. Night and day difference in both food and customer service.
