    Maple latte
    Stephanie W.

    Barista was very friendly and helpful. It's a nice and cozy coffee shop with a couple of seats inside. I tried their maple latte and it was really good! One of my faves so far! $5.75 and they use coffee beans from sweet leaf and they have a shelf of their sweeteners on the wall. They also play some music and they have WiFi as well!

    Fantastic and solid coffee! Really enjoyed the oat milk latte and especially the rocket fuel which is a special drink made of condensed cold brew, chicory, and a bit of maple syrup. The rocket fuel was a refreshing drink and had a nice subtle smokey taste and not sweet surprisingly despite having maple syrup. What makes this cafe stand out from most coffee shops in the city is how cozy and welcoming the setting is. The interior and the background music make reading, working or hanging out with friends pleasant and possible. The seating options are particularly designed to be comfortable. We spoke to the owner who designed and built everything which is so impressive! One could really tell the attention to detail she put in from every lamp choice to even the tiles and wallpaper in the bathroom. Definitely returning when around the neighborhood!!

    A fantastic coffee shop in Greenpoint! The coffee is excellent and is locally roasted from Sweetleaf. The decor is cozy, well designed, and a great place to work with both free WiFi and seating. The owners are super friendly too! My daily go-to in the morning for cold brew. Definitely try the iced teas as well!

    Cozy window nook!

    Kaleidoscope has the best espresso I've had in NYC. I got back from a few weeks in Italy last year looking for great espresso and tried many bougie places in Manhattan that were just bland or burnt. This place has delicious tart espresso you can drink straight. They also bake fresh pastries, one of the best choc croissants I've had plus they sell one filled with apricot jam that's so good. Their other drinks are amazing too, cold brews, cold raspberry tea, they make the perfect balance of mocha, pumpkin spice, etc with espresso you can still taste (they made me a pumpkin spice cortado, my fav). The baristas are the owners and they have lovely personalities, a neighborhood feel. Also the space inside is a major vibe, cozy nooks, a ton of real plants, and fun decor including even the bathroom wallpaper! OH and a final note, everything is sustainable including their straws which are made of agave (!) and not those crappy paper straws.

    Menu board (but they can & will make tons of other stuff if you ask)

    My partner and I chose to get a rocket fuel and cold brew - the cold brew was strong but not too acidic.

I wouldn't wait in a long line for it though Also very unique, flavorful chocolate croissant, it is heavy heavy on the chocolate Atmosphere: tiny and cramped and usually a line, good for to go and has 4 bar seats and a few small tables outside Service: fast! Usually a line but I got lucky Price: pricey but worth it for size and quality

On this visit, I was buying bread for three different friends as gifts, so I naturally needed a little extra time to make my selections and place my order. Unfortunately, the staff member serving me appeared extremely impatient throughout the process and even criticized me for not explaining my order clearly. I completely understand that there were customers waiting behind me and that the staff needs to keep the line moving. However, I believe every customer deserves to be treated with patience and respect. If I am spending over $120 on your products, I don't think it's unreasonable to expect five minutes of patience while I carefully choose my order. I truly love this bakery and will continue recommending it because the quality of the bread is exceptional. I only hope the customer service can better reflect the quality of the products. A little more patience and kindness would make the experience just as memorable as the bread itself.

    Radio Bakery... is perfection. I completely understand the line…read more I first ordered the heirloom tomato & feta sandwich, which was unbelievable. It is so clear that they use incredibly high-quality ingredients and carefully curate each component, which is exactly why everything comes together in such an elevated way. The tomatoes reminded me of the ones I grew in my garden during California summers as a teenager. Perfectly salted, layered over soft, not-too-tart feta. The focaccia was made with beautiful olive oil and, while a bit chewier than I usually prefer, gave the sandwich a satisfying bite. I had to close my eyes while eating it just to savor it. The chocolate cherry almond croissant... wow. Such a creative combination, and it did not disappoint. Soft, buttery, and filled with a sour cherry compote that reminded me of a cherry cordial from a box of chocolates. 5/5. Hainsley, who helped me, was exceptionally lovely. Everyone even in line was very nice, the vibes were awesome. I'll definitely be back to try the spicy tofu sandwich and the heirloom tomato tart!

    Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon and noticed the line was surprisingly short, so we decided to…read morehop in. We only waited about 10 minutes before it was our turn to order. While they didn't have their full selection available, there were still plenty of pastries to choose from. We ended up getting the vanilla kouign amann and the chocolate PB&J croissant. The kouign amann was flaky, buttery, and beautifully caramelized. The chocolate PB&J croissant was easily our favorite. It was filled with rich, decadent chocolate and a layer of jelly that balanced everything out without making it overly sweet. My significant other hasn't stopped talking about it since! We're already looking forward to coming back to try more.
