We got croissants from the bakery crust that only opens for like 7 random weekday hours a week and a big ass coconut from the Caribbean spice store. Awesome day

Ordered: Flat White with Farm Fresh Battenkill Whipped Cream…read more(~$6) Aya's take: IXV Coffee is a coffeeshop operating out of garage with a casual & welcoming outdoor seating area. It was a beautiful day so we grabbed a seat while waiting for our coffee. I got the Flat White with Farm Fresh Battenkill Whipped Cream. The Flat White? Warm, soothing, and bold. The Farm Fresh Battenkill Whipped Cream? Delectable, fluffy, and has ruined all other whipped cream for me. I can't explain how much better it was with the whipped cream. It was sweet, buttery, and rich; unlike most other whipped creams I've had. My only con (and this is somewhat beyond their control) was it did get quite chaotic with people's pets and kids' strollers that were taking up the sidewalk making it hard for others to pass or to peacefully continue our conversation. Very enjoyable and such a hidden gem!

I had a deeply disappointing and unsettling experience at this coffee shop. I placed my order and…read morewaited patiently off to the side, expecting the same level of service as everyone else. However, I began to notice a troubling pattern customer who arrived after me were being served promptly, receiving their coffee without delay, while I continued to wait without acknowledgment. As time passed, the situation became increasingly uncomfortable and disheartening. It felt as though I was being deliberately overlooked. I could not ignore the possibility that I was being treated differently because of the color of my skin, which made the experience even more painful and isolating. Brooklyn is known for its diversity and inclusivity, which is why this experience felt so out of place. I came in simply hoping to relax and enjoy a cup of coffee, but I left feeling disrespected, diminished, and unwelcome. A coffee shop should be a space where all customers feel valued, safe, and respected not disregarded or marginalized. Unfortunately, that was not the case here. and coffee didn't taste well !!!!!!!

Had some time to kill in the morning so I thought why not stop for a latte?…read more It was FREEZING out so I opted to order a latte to stay and little did I know that the latte would be served in a beautiful teacup! The ambience is super cozy and quaint with a touch of grandma chic aesthetic. While the cafe is super small, it's super well decorated and the seating is really comfortable. Can't wait to stop by again when I'm in the area

I…read moregot the iced orange spiced latte and it had a great orange flavor without being overpowering, but also the coffee taste still came through. Mine was about $6.50 i believe. My friend got the rose velvet latte and she agreed it was also a very good latte. The barista was very kind as well. It's a pretty small spot to grab a seat and read or chat with a friend. All the seats were taken inside and we had to squeeze around a bit, but overall a really good spot for a latte!

Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5…read moreAtmosphere: 5/5 Value: 5/5 ------- I love love love Cafe Cotton Bean. Highly recommend to anyone in the area looking for a delicious cup of coffee and one of the cutest stores in the neighborhood. The staff are all incredibly friendly, and service is relatively fast given their space limitations. (If you're trying to come here to work, I highly recommend coming during off peak hours - late mornings on a weekend are basically claustrophobic!) I haven't really tried any of the food besides the pastries, but the croissant is heaven. That plus a cappuccino is my quickly becoming my Sunday morning choice of breakfast always. They also have a little bench out front and a water bowl in the summer if you have a furry friend accompanying you.

Coffee was decent but overpriced. There's no syrups other than simple, so just be warned if you are…read morewanting other syrups. My biggest issue was the staff being curt and rude. They also did not clearly let us know when food / drinks were ready. Not a very welcoming space. Overall wouldn't recommend. In other words: if I wanted to pay $11 for a bad coffee and getting my feelings hurt, I'd go hook up with a frat man and pay for my taxi home

Stopped by today to order an iced americano. I was met with a blank stare by the cashier. No…read moregreeting, no "how may I help you" I ordered, paid for my drink, left a tip and when the barista gave me my drink I asked for a splash of oat milk. They both gave me another blank stare and told me they charged for it and that I could have the regular milk. I told them I didn't know it was a charge and that I don't want a latte, but just a splash. They very rudely told me "this isn't Starbucks". I highly discourage anyone from coming to this over priced, possibly racist establishment where the workers have 0 Customer service and think they can just talk to people and kind of way. The worker with the long pink nails should be fired for their rudeness. They weren't being helpful, just rude and ignorant. I feel like they wanted to make me feel bad.

Swung by on the 4th of July, around 5:40 PM. There weren't any hours posted on the storefront, and…read moresince there was a couple sitting at the bar, we assumed they were still serving. Once inside, the barista informed us they were closing at 6:00 PM and were out of most food items, though we could still order coffee. We ordered five drinks--two hot and three iced--and I have to say, the coffees were pretty good. The interior was super bright, spacious, and clean. It gives off a very elegant and upscale vibe. Reminds me of those Korean drama coffee shops. Unfortunately, what could have been a nice first impression was soured by the barista, who seemed visibly annoyed that he had any customers at all. I totally get it. I was a barista for a few years, so I've been in that position where you just want to go home, but I also know that you can't just clock out the second the clock hits 6:00. A little kindness and patience go a long way. It was the last day of the heat wave and an exceptionally hot day; we just wanted a pick-me-up to cool off before heading home. I won't write this place off entirely based on one experience, but I'm not inclined to return to this location. I'll definitely check out their other locations in the city, though.
