Judy's is both a bar and a cafe, depending on when you come. I grabbed two lattes, a lavender and a matcha. The matcha latte was surprisingly solid, creamy, bold matcha flavor and umami. Very slight astringency. My fiancée said the lavender latte was solid, but not nearly as good as Liebre Cafe, which is not too far away. There were also a few pastries and cookies sitting out which looked good - would come back to try these. Service was fast and the barista was friendly. read more

I love Judy's such a great neighborhood bar. The Friday vibes are super chillyou can actually get work done without anyone bothering you. Tucked away in Sunset Park, right off 5th Ave and 41st. Friendly, low key, and just feels like home. read more

Nice rotation of beers. Wine and saki as well. Interesting shark in the bathroom. Coffee bar in the morning.

really cute ambience inside. Bartender Kurnet (spelling) was awesome! The drinks looked amazing. I wish I could try all of them, but I'll come back another time! read more

My favorite bar I've been to of late. Kind of like a coffee shop by day, that slowly evolves to a wine and beer bar by night. They have bar seating, indoor tables, as well as and outdoor structure. They have such a greatly curated beer and wine selection, and all at reasonable prices. Super chill vibes, great crowd, and such nice staff. They also let you bring in food from the outside, or order food to be delivered to the bar. Perfect situation is to get tacos delivered from Tacos El Bronco which is essentially down the street to go with their amazing beer and wine. If I didn't live so far away from Sunset Park I would probably hang out here every night read more

Cool spot we stumbled upon in between events. Stopped in for an afternoon coffee - the decor was eclectic and cool, coffee & alcohol were well priced. The crema on my flat white was great. Counter service, indoor & outdoor seating. read more

I love the place, apparently the owner doesn't like me.. There are two ways of looking at this.. His and mine.. I have no idea what I did to offend anyone, I've been back several times and like the people that work there and habituate the place.. Just got told by the owner (after no scuffle) and none that I can remember, that I am not welcome there..This makes me sad since he told me that I upset a couple there a few years ago.. I don't remember doing that...I will be happy not to go there, it scares me because, I was a NY bartender for several years and I'm not a crazy person who is given to offend people.... Anyway, I guess people are extremely sensitive these days and I somehow offended two people... The place is great.. Just be careful being your self I guess? They have great wine... read more

My new favorite place. Was looking for a place where I could stay alcohol free and my friends could drink. This is the perfect place for that scenario. They have a great range of beers, wines, ciders, etc. And great non-alcohol choices too, including BKE kombucha which is the absolute best. read more

Cozy cafe/bar! I came here to grab a drink on a Tuesday evening. It seemed like a really nice place to come to relax. The staff were nice, too. read more

The quintessential bar/coffee shop that you want and need in your neighborhood. Run by an owner who gives every ounce for this business and bartenders that are more friends than beverage purveyors. Beers on tap, wine and cans rotate frequently enough to make trying something new every visit common place. I don't write Yelp reviews, but Judy's deserves every bit of my 5 stars! read more

No idea what this pastry was called - thought it was a scone but had a complex name I don't remember. It was very good!! Very moist and soft. Service was good - spot is very wholesome. Nice local Guinness. Friendly environment. Got coffee and the pastry. read more

Great neighborhood bar! Bartenders are super friendly and there is always a great selection. You cant go wrong

My favorite joint from morning to night. comfy space with amazing coffee and omg those tahini cookies... is the best. And at night a great selection of wines, beers. It's a scene, I tell ya. They have some snacks but not much. They allow you to bring your own food. read more

A bit sad that Parkette has gone away, but excited that Judy's has opened up in the neighborhood. I'm usually wary of gentrifiers/hipsters moving in as a Sunset Park native, but Judy's is doing us right. Sam is warm and friendly, and while I have only been here once, my best friend has been multiple times and she attests to the fact that Judy's is a nice local little spot. I thought they had a decent assortment of beers/wine (mostly local), and the ambience was very chill, not loud, crowded, or busy at all. I can definitely see myself coming here on Fridays after a long week to just unwind with a few intimate friends. read more

Its nice to find a coffee shop with a relaxing and quirky vibe in sunset park. Judys sells coffee, tea, beer and wine with a few food options but they also encourage outside food. For vegans they have alternative milks. We went on a sunday afternoom and it had a quiet and relaxing vibe and fast service. Great place to grab some coffee and concentrate on work. Also they have cool old school VHS movies playing. read more

Absolutely was love at first sight. I was begging my fiancé to come in here for so long as we Def. Love to explore and learn new places. Finally convinced him one day and walked in and he has officially found his new favorite beer. Thank you to Sam for his hospitality and making me feel like VIP when we walked in the very first time! I have to say I have Def found my favorite beer as well :) Recommendations are the Clown Shoes and KCBC bride of beach zombie (Marble of doom is the previous season brew). Thank you to Sam who never falls short of amazing with his kindness and recommendations. Sat there and interviewed me on what kind of beer I like and recommended two of the BEST beers I've had. We will Def be making future visits read more

Great gay bar. Food? Meh. Could do better in that area. A nice respite from the macho places in the neighborhood

Around last week I was passing by with my dog and some groceries, I was tired so I sat down on one of the small tables outside.5 min later a man comes up to me and says I can't sit there. It would have been understandable if there we're people sitting outside but the outside area was empty. I found it very rude to just kick us out like that when we weren't bothering anyone. read more

This place is an absolute gem! There's always an interesting selection of draft beers and wines, good people and great vibes. During the day it acts as a chill laptop friendly coffee shop which serves la colombe (my favorite!). In the evenings it's a cozy bar which the area sorely needed. My wife and I have been enamored with the place since we first walked in. read more

Awesome place! I feel SO TRICKED tonight! My fabulous bar owner Sam is out sick!!!....on NEW YEAR'S EVE?!?! Aaaaaahhhhh!!!! He's not allowed to get sick tonight!!!! Best place on earth! Go! Drink lots, and tip well! read more

Nice bar, people are very friendly! It's a very Quant place with a different vibe. Bartender very open to letting you try the different drinks. read more

Cute little hidden gem in the middle of busy 5th ave in Sunset Park. Love the decor on the inside. They have delicious pastries and snacks as well as draft beers and wines. They also have happy hour every day from 12 to 7 and they're open until 2 AM. If you're hungry for more than pastries, don't worry!--They allow outside food :). They're also adjacent to Sunset Park for anyone who wants to enjoy the city views. Definitely coming back! read more

The best, seriously. Environment is hands down the most chill ever. Perfect spot to grab coffee in the morning & drink in the afternoon. Owner takes an active interest with his customers, provides top notch service, & provides the best atmosphere. Anytime I come to New York, this will be my forever spot read more

Mostly been to the coffee shop, been to the late night bar version only twice - enjoyed both. Down to earth, good price options, free refills on to-stay coffee and interesting beer selections! That's all I need. Practicalities: Outside food friendly, not the best pastries during the day, but a great pretzel at night. Also I will call out the wallpaper in their bathroom - best bathroom wallpaper of 2019. read more

What a cute place for a late night drink! The lights, ambiance and atmosphere was so warm and cozy! My husband and I had a great time! Sam was great and was letting us in on all the great spots to see around the area! read more

Yes, yes, moths f'in YES! My girlfriend, myself, and two friends went here for the first time tonight. Definitely not for the last time! The owner, Sam, is incredibly kind and accommodating, the vibe is awesome, they have a small, cute DVD/VHS player playing old school movies (Cocktail, Big Trouble in Little China), and the drinks are great and reasonably priced. I'm SO grateful that Sunset Park FINALLY has a great place for us to go! DEFINITELY check this place out ASAP! You won't be sorry! read more

Terrible service. Doesn't serve food. Bartender spend most of the time talking to his friends instead of helping. Owner is oblivious to any complaints. read more

Customer service was terrible, owner Sam was out of line. His comments were very rude, he is so unprofessional and distasteful. He blamed us for having an "extra" drink. To avoid the continuing drama he was instigating, my friend decided to pay the one drink he overcharged. You can tell he's never owned a business prior to this one. He must have been having a bad morning/day. Here are some tips on how to improve your customer service skills, especially when you own a restaurant in a HISPANIC neighborhood : Practice active listening Be self aware - check on your implicit biases Learn to empathize with your customers Use positive language Improve your hospitality skills Know your products and services Look for common ground Communicate clearly Be solutions-focused Be willing to learn **This is a BIG ONE for the owner: Admit mistakes** read more

Great coffee and reasonable prices. The kind of place you can swing by for a coffee to go, or sit and enjoy all day. Customers staying get one free refill on coffee, which is a really nice touch. Try the chocolate! read more

Best coffee in the hood. Great service. Love this spot. Clean, cozy good vibe!

Judy's, such a cozy little coffee shop! I am a big big fan of the vanilla latte. I am very glad this place opened up. I remember the first time I came by with my co-workers, the owner was such a kind and welcoming person! He was excited to see us and made sure our drinks were on point. I came by a couple of more times and I was welcomed with the same vibe and he says hello to everyone. There is usually one barista I see very often and she's very polite and sweet. I met another barista and he did this very nice foam art on my latte. It was so pretty to look at that I did not want to mess it up or drink it. Still drank it. It was delicious. I am excited for the extended hours and looking forward to have a beer or glass of wine. The new menu looks awesome!! read more

If you go late at night, you will get super knowledgeable barkeeps. The selection of libations is vast. Don't look for a TV. There's a small one up top, but you're there to connect with people, and it's a wonderfully intimate atmosphere for that. Very friendly clientele. read more

Absolutely wonderful, versatile spot with a neighborhood vibe. Great, carefully selected wines and draft beers. Beautiful old wood bar. Unpretentious, friendly, reliable. Community spirit. Every neighborhood should have a place like Judy's. read more

It's so nice to be able to get good coffee (again) in the neighborhood. Lovely little place, my only complaint being that the morning barista never says anything about the refill you're supposed to get, and that she's always watching TV on her iPad - a little annoying since the volume goes over the volume of the music they're playing. Otherwise, totally recommended - and they have beer! read more

Perfect place to chill. Dropped by on a Thursday night and the place was alive. The vibe is great as well as enjoyed the wide selection of beer and wines. The bartender Henry has a super sense of humor and made the night even more interesting. This is the place to go for midweek hijinks and drinks. read more

If you're looking for a hip and chill place to hang out in Sunset Park... this is it. Great prices and great selection. The bartenders are great (at least when I was there) and they have a old school TV with a DVD player where you can throw movies on. I love the relaxed feel and laid back environment. The best part is THEY HAVE SAKE... yes I love Sake I definitely say this place is worth a visit if you happen to be in this neck of the city... read more

This place is lovely! The coffee is *fantastic* and they have a nice beer menu. It's decorated in a very cute and classy way and is perfect for throwing back a beer or two with friends or a partner. The wine menu doesn't look bad either but I admit I haven't tried their curated menu. I like the staff and the atmosphere of the place -- friendly and cozy! read more

Had an incredibly negative experience here. Was refused service for my friend and I. My friend forgot her ID at home, but I presented my drivers license and vax card. She volunteered to leave and get drinks elsewhere, while I was going to stay and have a glass of wine. Instead, because my friend didn't have her ID, the bartender refused me service as well, insinuating that I was not coherent enough to stay in the bar. I was stone cold sober. As a former restaurant manager and sommelier, I have never experienced this type of refusal of service, specifically since I had my physical credentials in front of me. read more
