I've been on a cardamom bun kick recently and am trying to find a La Cabra backup. I might have…read moreheld too high of expectations for Smor and ordered: Cardamom bun Cardamom oat latte Although a bit cheaper than La Cabra, I was not that impressed here and wouldn't come back. I ordered online and for whatever reason it said the order was ready ASAP, but then within 45-55 minutes so that gave me mixed feelings. The cardamom bun is very bread heavy-for the first few bites, you'll bite into the cardamom spice then nothing else after. The oat latte had very minimal to little of a cardamom taste so the $0.50 upcharge for the syrup flavor felt a bit of a waste. Good to keep in the back pocket, but not to yearn for.

So much salmon and it appeared to be of very high-quality and was super tasty! I absolutely loved all the toppings, especially the dill and the addition of a lemon to squeeze on top was such a nice touch. Some of my friends got some of the pastries and other breakfast sandwiches and they all loved what they got as well. This is a great bakery, and hopefully I'll get to try their restaurant at some point!

I have to say this place really hit the spot the other day when it was negative 1 degrees. I was…read morefortunate to see a cafe in the area staying open till later. I ordered 3 sides. The olives, toasted bread with butter and grilled chicken. I enjoyed everything honestly. The olives were a bit spicy yet not a deal breaker for the experience I had.

I felt it was bitter and didn't have much banana flavor. It's also on the pricey side, coming close to $10. The restaurant itself is cute and they have outdoor seating too which would be fun for the summer.

To be honest...I didn't get a chance to try any of the drinks as I was in a rush to be somewhere…read moreand my mission was to try the stuffed dates after seeing this place on Social Media. It is a quaint and small coffee shop. The service was nice and took the time to answer questions. I ordered all the stuffed dates they had that day and all are pretty solid. They are on the pricier end but I never had a stuffed date before and I truly enjoyed it. It was my way of being "fake healthy" :P. I would probably revisit again for more stuffed dates and to try a drink. Quick tip: if they run out of complementary dates and busy, they will not replenish so you will miss out on the freebie. They told me they will replenish it later in the day when there is down time so it is kind of first come first serve so get there early! They did tell me all the stuffed dates are made fresh daily.

This was rated the #1 hot chocolate by someone I follow on instagram and I had to go check it out…read morefor myself. I do agree with this evaluation, as it is now my favorite as well - here's what makes it so: it's decadent, thick, and rich, like european hot chocolates, and is quite sweet at the end, but has a sharp dark chocolate bitterness that leads in the beginning, so it's not overtly too sweet, but it's just got a lot of everything going on. The torched marshmallows are what bring this over to the top - that gently crisped exterior from the brulee giving way to this luxurious soft, melty marshmallow is SOOOO good, and something that I will remember and would definitely come back for. The space itself is small - the market is literally a small shop selling groceries and prepackaged lunch. But I came in the winter and almost everyone was here for the hot chocolate. There's a small number of chairs to sit in.

At first, I thought just how good could a hot chocolate be. This place blew my mind. The fluffy…read moremarshmallows are a wonderful, gooey blanket with each sip. I couldn't put it down. Really enjoyed the pastry options too.

Noa Café is one of those places that makes you want to slow down and enjoy your coffee. The…read moreatmosphere is cozy, modern, and stylish, making it a great spot whether you're catching up with a friend, getting some work done, or simply taking a break from exploring NYC. The coffee is excellent, and if you like trying seasonal drinks, their specialty lattes are worth it. Everything feels thoughtfully made, from the drinks to the pastries. We also tried some of their food, and while the menu is simple, everything was fresh and flavorful. One thing I really liked is that the café changes throughout the day. In the morning it's the perfect coffee shop, and later in the afternoon you can even enjoy cocktails, giving it a completely different vibe. If you're visiting New York, I definitely recommend adding Noa Café to your list. Whether you're looking for a quality cup of coffee, a light breakfast or lunch, or just a relaxing place to unwind, it's a great choice. Just keep in mind that, like many popular cafés in the city, it can get busy during peak hours--but it's absolutely worth the visit.

It was more on the bitter side and the banana cream top kind of tasted like an unripe banana but once mixed it was a little bit on the sweeter side. peach iced tea: my friend said she'd rate it a 7.5 but was refreshing! saffron bun: loved this one- reminded me of challah and had a nice hint of saffron while it being doughy but firm. cinnamon roll: perfectly sweet, gooey, and soft interior. It was quite delicious-- just a little too much icing for me but overall a good texture. I'd come back for the sweets but probably not the drinks.

With many people eating at the tables they have inside. They also have like a side seating area too by the counter. The food here from what I saw people eating looked good. I did not eat though I got a regular iced latte with regular milk. It took a bit to make but as I said it was a bit crowded. When I got it I was disappointed at how it tasted. It was too milky for my liking it had no flavor to it. I think they use a coffee brand named panther. If I am in the area again and want to try their food maybe I will but the coffee I had was nothing special at all

Welcome to the bakery that openly takes advantage of its customers!…read more After dining at a nearby restaurant, we were in the mood for French pastries and decided to stop by Sweet Rehab. The display of desserts looked beautiful and inviting. However, we noticed there were no prices listed, which made us slightly uneasy. Though we assumed the pricing would be comparable to similar establishments. Since we weren't very hungry, we ordered one dessert to share. The employee behind the counter suggested that one would not be enough and recommended adding two more. We agreed and asked for her suggestions. She pointed out two options, which we ordered. When we decided to dine in, we were told that a drink purchase was required so we added a pot of tea. The desserts were nothing memorable. The real shock came when we received the bill; it cost more than our dinner earlier. We later realized that the two items recommended to us were among the most expensive. Overall, the experience felt disappointing and left us with the impression that upselling was prioritized over transparency. Clear pricing and more straightforward recommendations would have made for a much better customer experience.
