Was in the mood for a healthy lunch while in Staten Island…read more Ordered the Acai U Later Bowl fresh with pineapples, strawberries and granola, the Power Breakfast bowl and the Peppermint Foam Coffee. The Acai U Later was delicious, the Piwer Breakfast bowl ( oatmeal) was hearty and ate only half. The coffee was good not great, really didn't taste the peppermint. I would definitely recommend Baya Bar when visiting the Island of Staten.

Came here with a friend to pick up some food before catching up!…read more We were here a little after 6pm. The person taking our orders was really friendly and patient with us.. After ordering our bowls, we wanted to get a smoothie. I noticed the person looked a little frustrated. I apologized and they said it's okay but they are closing soon (7pm). Even so, they took our orders. 3 stars for the berry smoothie I got and the worker! The Pacific Beach bowl (size large, about $13) was aesthetically pleasing to look at but it was wayyy to sweet for me. I don't think I was be returning unless I pass by and want a smoothie!

The Pacific Açaí Bowl and Flu Fighter drink were both very good! The staff were nice and welcoming.read more

Fresh Twist is my favorite quick, guilt-free breakfast/lunch/dinner spot. Whenever I'm in the mood…read morefor something healthy, their smoothies and wraps most definitely satisfy my cravings and don't leave me feeling heavy like fast food generally does. The smoothies are also surprisingly thick, which sets them apart from most smoothie chains I'd also often opt for. Another aspect that makes fresh twist better than other smoothie spots is the fact that there aren't many places where you can also get a Cuban sandwich or empanadas or a quesadilla. My new favorite is personally the birria tacos, as they're juicy and the broth on the side makes them even more flavorful. I can tell that I'm not the only one who has such high praises for Fresh Twist, as they are always busy when I come pick up my order. However, my food is always done within 15 mins or so as promised on the phone/uber eats. So glad I found this little spot as it feels good to support a small business, especially when everything they make is so good!

I say yes. 15 minutes pass and I get "just one more crepe." Well...it's been 15 minutes and I can't even order? I would've ordered online, but this business does not have online ordering despite advertising it being available on doordash. Another 5-7 minutes pass and this "one more crepe" isn't even being made. So that's 20-25 minutes spent in this business without so much as my order being taken. I had been there previously and the shakes were pretty good, but unfortunately, I will never be returning after this experience.

The price was extremely high but we assumed the taste would justify it. Unfortunately, it did not. Both smoothies were a pale color (clearly loaded with milk) and tasted like absolutely nothing. Both of our smoothies had peanut butter; did not taste even a drop of it. Not to mention, there was somehow a hair underneath the ingredient sticker. Very bad experience update: my friend just called to speak with the manager, she was yelled at and told they would not put a manager on the phone. our smoothies tasted like nothing because we "didn't add anything to it" and for my smoothie they did not use almond milk as i requested but instead soy milk and added almond butter and refused to refund.

Best coffee shop in the North Shore... dare I say Staten Island?!…read more My recommendations- - COFFEE DRINKS: Iced Spanish latte with whole milk and cinnamon (delicious and indulgent) OR hot cortado (for a smaller drink with strong caffeine kick) - FRUIT DRINKS: Orange crush juice; Matcha mama smoothie - TOASTS: Caprese; Smoked Salmon; French Lady - BFAST: the Benny; the New Yorker; Eggs your Way - BALLIN ON A BUDGET: Sunrise Wrap - KIDS: The Works Pancakes stack This is a small business that serves the heart and soul of this community. You might see ppl working on their laptops, couples on a date, ppl stopping in before/after a shift, teachers, artists, realtors, retired folks, parents with their infants, etc. They have a fridge stocked with additional beverages including wellness shooters like ginger shots. They also sometimes have sangria and daily specials available. In the back they have created an awesome seating area with tables, chairs, umbrella's and a mini bar. I'm not sure what they serve out of the mini bar or when but I think they do private events sometimes. Don't sleep on this spot! Northside is a keeper!

The cafe offers breakfasts, lunches, among its menu of delicious delicacies.  My first time visiting was earlier today, I stopped by for some muffins and got the most heavenly chocolate chip, which was an easy 10/10.  It was large with lots of chips, and the freshness factor was stupendous.  I can't wait for my next rendezvous at this little treasure trove.

Honestly one of my favorite cafes in Staten!…read more We have come here several times, and the food does not disappoint. Usually we are here in the morning, thus we order brunch food. You need to order at the counter as they don't have table service. They will give you a number, and they bring out the food to the table. The drinks you need to pick up at the counter. We have ordered the breakfast sandwich, buffalo chicken sandwich, burger, and their lattes. The breakfast sandwich comes with beef bacon! I thought I wouldn't like this, but it's surprisingly tasty! The breakfast sandwich comes with a small salad, so we get the garlic potatoes on the side. These are great. The buffalo chicken wrap and burger are also solidly good. I've only ordered the pistachio latte here because after the first one, I kept wanting it! Soo good! And I am picky about coffee! Currently my favorite cafe in Staten! Please don't change!
