    Regular 12oz Iced Cardamom Latte (~$9)
    Aya E.

    Ordered: Regular Croissant (~$6) Cardamom Bun (~$6) Regular 12oz Iced Cardamom Latte (~$9) Medium 8oz Cappuccino (~$7) Aya's take: La Cabra is a cafe, bakery, and coffee roastery originally from Denmark. The interior design is very European, minimalistic, and serene. It's bright, quiet, and peaceful if you're looking to have a slow morning. The coffee here is excellent. The Cappuccino was balanced, bold, and creamy. Simple yet executed well. The Iced Cardamom Latte was revitalizing from the very first sip. The cardamom syrup is essentially a $2 up-charge and seems to be the only flavor available. Each sip had that warm, aromatic, and light sweetness. The same goes for the Cardamom Bun although it tasted a bit undercooked/chewy as opposed to being fluffy on the inside. On the other hand, the Croissant was ultra buttery with that delicately shattering exterior yet super balanced in richness and flavor. All in all, definitely a top 10 in the city and worth a try!

    Cardamom buns are worth the hype!! If youre familiar with the "bao" it has that type of moist bun like consistency.

    the cardamom buns were so delicious and soft. the cappuccino was the perfect texture and taste and the iced cortado tasted very clean. the service was great and the baristas were very helpful and knowledgeable about the coffee. the place itself is a dream. you walk in and are instantly relaxed. The interior felt so beautifully thought out.

    Service: 3.7/5 Food: 4.1/5 Price: $$ ($5-10) While I appreciate the ample seating, I don't think this is the best layout for the shop. What I Ordered: - pain suisse: flaky pastry, balanced chocolate, wish they warmed it up - cardamom bun: sticky + hits - matcha americano: mild

    Was excited to try La Cabra as the most anticipated coffee to try in NY. It was fancy, but for the average coffee drinker like me, this place didn't do much... I just went for espresso with Barbosa (Brazilian) and it came out with carbonated water which was great to cleanse palate for max enjoyment I guess. This was ok to pretty good for me. Wife went for the pour over Sudan Rume (Colombia) which sounded great washed, floral and balanced. But when I tried it, this was just very weird flavor for me. Didn't even know coffee could smell and taste like this, reminded me more of like some kind of fermented miso or bean paste soup flavor? No idea. The cafe was very clean but maybe too clinical and too quiet where I didn't feel comfortable even talking to break the zen silence of the library like environment. Wife and her pastry chef friend said the pastry was excellent here, so maybe just need to be a higher level of connoisseur of things to be able to enjoy this place...

    Finally got to try the infamous cardamom bun. Not sure if it is the same caliber as the Manhattan location but I thought it was pretty delicious for a rainy Sunday. I found the space here stunning. I almost forgot I was in Bushwick lol. Very clean, elegant, serene, all the things I love! they have cubicle style spots which I think I will be frequenting a lot come this fall as well as standard seating. It is a slight bummer that they don't have as many pastry options (think there were just croissants and the cardamom bun) but I suppose it's just an excuse to make my way to EV.

    Great space, ambiance and aesthetic. However, the coffee is lacking and pricey. It was on the sour side and lacked the creaminess even with the milk. Their pastries, however, were delicious. Would recommend the cardamon bun and croissants. Ample seating that's great for small groups or to work (there is laptop only seating). Would come back for the environment and the pastries but I would skip the coffee.

    Espresso, cardamom bun, oat latte

    My boyfriend and I came at 10 AM on a Thursday, and there was no line but it quickly filled up. Cardamom bun was great as always, and I had an amazing oat milk latte. Espresso was also fire. Filter was good, too. This is the best La Cabra location of the three in NYC by far - very spacious with plenty of seating.

    Ooooh la la! What do we have here?!? Absolutely lovely coffee roastery in Bushwick! You would think we were in LA! Very clean aesthetic, super open, super natural color palette, very tattooed employees and the tastiest of Danish dessert rolls! Oh my! It's no surprise we are blessed to have this roastery located so close to home. And also there's locations around the world. Glad I just have been doing a stroll to get my fill of the perfect coffee and the perfectly sweetened treat. I went on a more fall day and maybe it deterred the crowds. I would assume this place can get nuts. The locations in the city are chaos and that's putting it lightly. Will gladly be adding this to my "sweet little treat" stops!

    Can't say anything but good for this place. Love the coffee and pastry especially their signature cardamom bun. It has cardamom taste but not too overpowering and sweet at the same time. And the coffee, say no more. One of the best ice coffee we had in NYC. Their matcha latte is okay though but love it. All the employees are really accommodating and friendly and you can feel the Scandinavian/Japanese ambiance in this place. I would come back and try their other locations!

    What a beautiful location - lots of seating for both groups, couples, and individual nooks for working too. If you're looking for a unique coffee experience and have some time to unwind, this is the place to be - the lines do get long but go through quickly, although the wait for drinks is a bit long but that's because there is so much care and attention to detail behind each drink. I got the iced Chai Latte which was surprisingly very sweet but still very refreshing, just what I needed.

    Cardamom latte & croissant

    I came here as a spot to grab some coffee and chat with friends. The interior of the cafe is spacious and there are booths for you to do your work at, tables that are reserved as 'non-laptop' tables (only for chatting), and outdoor seating. Service was quick. I got their Cardamom latte & croissant, and enjoyed it. The cardamom latte was a bit too sweet for my liking, so I would ask for less syrup next time, and the croissant was solid. Cute cafe.

    Such a nice spot! Little out of the way but fun and yummy and homey! Less busy than Manhattan locations, but still tricky to find a spot to eat. Love that they have laptop only spaces separated from the yapping area. They remember your face and deliver your food when eating inside which is really sweet. Don't be like me and accidentally assume they have houjicha lattes when instead it's just houjicha tea got the almond croissant and it was a little oily but very crisp and yummy!

    Amazing coffee and pastries! The space is gorgeous and the staff is friendly. The cardamom latte and bun are my current obsession.

You've really went downhill. Everything is dreadfully smaller for the same price. You used to have a giant fluffy egg square on your breakfast sandwich and now I've gotten one lumpy small egg drenched in so much overly spicy sauce - that used to be more soft and palatable, I can't even taste anything else, to compensate for the lack of sandwich for over $12. Insane. The fries were the highlight of my meal and that's really saying a lot. $6.50 for one of the smallest iced coffees I've ever received... I think you're staying open on highway robbery alone. Or that the gentrifiers just don't give a damn. Honestly, I could've gotten something better at the Bodega for less than $35 after the Uber fees. I feel bad leaving this honestly, but... how you go from such a wonderfully established place to some dreadful experience is just sad. Do better, become yourself again, because unfortunately I won't be ordering anymore.

I first ordered a chai latte and he said I could do two different syrups so I got the pumpkin and salted maple, though I was worried about it being too sugary so he suggested I could just do half a pump of each. He asked me what the name of the order would be and I said "Aida" (the phonetic spelling is ah-EE-dah). And then I heard the other barista say something along the lines of, "oh Aida, how about 'Aida' rather not be here", pretty rude if you ask me. And then I ordered the spicy nook sandwich. And when another server called my named to grab it she didn't even knowledge me when I tried to thank her and instead she talked to her coworker while I was right in front of her. The sandwich was really good, so was my chai tea. I really like the pumpkin and salt and maple syrups too. I did like all the options for seating although it was pretty packed. I'd say if you have a big party get there early. By 7pm the whole place was filled. There was a huge majong club that came in and took the whole back area, it was so crammed there were lines for the bathroom. Over all I had a good time. I really like the music too just know it gets very busy in there. The employees I would say were hit or miss. The ones that were great though I really liked. Just seem like the ones who didn't really give attention to customers or were kind of rude seemed like they didn't wanna be there.
