The barista was very friendly and made the drink exactly as requested. The cafe has greenery everywhere and there are plenty of seats from single up to large groups with or without tables.

Two floors with the main floor having tons of bar stools, Tabes and a lower nook area with a larger table and some couches. Upstairs offers a long community table with window lounge seating bright and even whimsical with a lovely floor to ceiling book case. Menu offers snacks, small bites and more substantial meal options. They also do a happy hour special beginning at 4! I opted for a dirty chai (5/5) and scrambled egg and cheddar sandwich (5/5) both were delish! Appreciated the side salad as well! If you're looking for a spot to work, meet a friend or enjoy some time to your self reading a book definitely check it out. Staff is friendly, noise is reasonable and not disruptive, space is bright and open. Free WiFi. Plenty of places nearby if you wanted to try another spot for food. The only bummer is the Parking. There is street or nearby parking lot but street parking was full even at 9:30 AM the lot is covered but $5 for 2 hours and up from there.

Perfect petite Pearls of plump pastel…read more Euro pastries Giving this shop 5 stars + a happy haiku. This is now one of my BEST rainy spring saturday memories in nyc. Top is off with a beautiful tram ride to roosevelt island (1 block away, just a metro swipe!) The staff were courteous, extremely knowledgable, and pleasant. The menu is limited but as the old adage says... less is more! And this is *very* true here. Espresso: Use the advice I was given and order an espresso with little milk. I ordered a decaf espresso with a dollop of milk dotted on top. The sweetness of the pastries are a wonderful compliment to the soft acidity of the espresso. Sweets: The staff educated me on this one too... keep in mind that a cake is a bigger piece, like an after dinner sweet. There is a more balanced ratio if cake vs. frosting. The petite fours are meant as tiny bites for a tasty burst of intense flavor. Lavender is amazing but be sure you are really committed to this flavor otherwise you might find it medicinal or soapy. I loved it!! Lemon is also clean and bright but sweet and creamy. Likewise, be sure you enjoy the citrus family before you snack on this one! Vanilla (bourbon vanilla) is the least unusual but also deliciously delicate and delectable! And such a pretty blue. Rose is very floral and very soft. This is an uncommon flavors for most American palettes but SUCH a delight! Coffee is a comfy and familiar mini cake. It was a bit too sweet for me with the frosting but would be great for those who love the spongey soaked insides of tiramisu.

When walking inside I had very much liked the interior as it was pretty cute with the clear chairs etc. Everything was served in very cute fine china. We sat against the wall where there was a table with a cute brown couch chair. As for the petit square, it was very sweet. It's a very small cake type of desert. If you don't like sweet things I wouldn't recommend ordering these! I found it to be quite delicious:)

I'm not even a plant person, and I absolutely fell in love with this shop. If you love plants, you'll be in heaven, but even if you don't, there's so much more to discover. I ended up leaving with two gorgeous silk scarves that immediately reminded me of the story quilts grandmothers make: pieces that carry culture, history and tradition in such a meaningful way. It was unlike anything I've seen before. There were so many handcrafted treasures I wanted to take home, even things that don't match my decor, simply because items were made so thoughtfully and beautiful. What I appreciated most was the atmosphere. It's cozy, inspiring, and feels like a place where creativity and community naturally come together. You can browse at your own pace without feeling pressured, and the staff somehow strike the perfect balance. I was given the freedom to explore while being ready with friendly, knowledgeable help when you need it. Customer service was truly A+. Whether you're shopping for plants, unique gifts, home decor, or just looking for a space that sparks joy and inspiration, Tansy is absolutely worth the visit. I walked in expecting to browse and walked out already looking forward to my next trip.

The owner's love for coffee is also very easy to see: his coffee beans are sourced from El Salvador and he even sells some in his shop. We bought a bag which was delicious when we made it at home. Besides coffee you can enjoy delicious Salvadoran Pupusas (trust me, I'm Salvadoran) or other warm and delicious bites like Venezuelan Cachitos. I am a fan of having a little biscuit or scone with my coffee but having delicious international bites like this is incredibly special. When you love what you do it shows and you can definitely taste that here.

You can tell that every detail was well thought out by them to create a great experience. Their simple yet diverse menu is great for those looking for a quick bite or a coffee run.

If you're in the area, definitely stop by and support a great new local business to the neighborhood.

Seating is available, but we chose to take it to go. As for the goods, get ready to devour some of the best coffee/desserts you've ever had! I decided not be basic for once and pick something new. And I was not disappointed in the least! - The Cassava Latte "Inspired by the Filipino dessert cake, made with condensed milk and coconut. Contains dairy": Beyond amazing!! Sweet and uniquely flavored, I could go back for this guy day in and day out! It also made me want to try cassava cake because it's just so good. My friend got the ube latte which was okay, but if you want a supremely delicous latte, I'd try this guy out! - Ube Champorado Croissant: Flakey and buttery, with a generous amount of ube filling. Adult and child tested and approved!! Definitely takes your basic croissant to the next level! - Chocolate Kouign Amann: Perfect cheewy, flakey texture with just the right amount of chocolate. Not overwhelmingly sweet. This was probably my favorite of the two! If you haven't yet tried Ayala Coffee, you really should add it to your list! It's worth every penny!

Both…read moredrinks tasted exactly like their names and had a rich, smooth flavor without being too overly sweet. For savory items, we ordered the tocino sausage and spamganisa sandwiches w/ egg added. My boyfriend thought the spamganisa needed some sort of kick like hot sauce, but we both agreed the tocino tasted better: it had a nice balance of sweetness and savoriness. For sweets, we ordered the caramelized honey butter toast and ube champorado croissant. The honey butter toast was aesthetically yummy, but was difficult to cut into and the bread tasted slightly overcooked so it was hard to bite into. However, the ube champorado croissant had a nice crunch and ube filling inside! The service was quick, the area where the cafe is located is nice and the decoration and lighting made the cafe very aesthetically pleasing. However, they do have limited seating, but if you go around the morning on a weekday, there might not be too many people which is nice if you're not into crowds. We would recommend: Tocino sausage sandwich, Ube and Leche Flan latte & Ube champorado croissant We would definitely come back to try out the other drinks and food options!
