10/10 breakfast sandwich. Always a line but so worth it. I think about it frequently and would recommend you all come and taste it for yourself.

maple lavender latte
Jennifer L.

Trust me that I say this place offers the best breakfast sandwiches in all of NYC. I've tried almost every one & my favorite has got to be the Fling + impossible sausage. The homemade poppy bun is deliciously buttery & just super well made with all the ingredients. Amazing coffee as well. Workers there are super friendly & food comes out fast!

No-cha bagel
Leemor Y.

Each time I come back here I like it more. I looove their specialty coffees. I will go out of my way to try them. This time around I got the maple and palo santo latte and it was perfect. I've previously had some latte with orange shavings which I thought was initially an odd combination but it was so delicious. I also had the pleasure of trying their bagel sandwiches - and tbh I wasn't expecting much since I've had so many bagels but I really enjoyed these ones. The bagels were perfectly warm and salty, and the fillings worked perfectly (also great for a hangover). I got the egg and cheese with impossible sausage and the no-cha. This spot is now one of my go tos when I'm in the area.

Coffee tonic, salt n peppa jelly sandwich
Michelle L.

The Blue Light Speak Cheesy is the spot to go if you're craving a solid breakfast sandwich. Admittedly, the Salt n Peppa bagel is the only sandwich I've tried, because I liked it so much the first time that I got it again on my second visit. It's the perfect combo of egg, cheese, a little bit of greens (arugula) to feel slightly healthy, and some oomph from the pepper jelly. Maybe someday I will try one of their other menu items, since the menu does change by the day, but for now I'm perfectly happy eating the Salt n Peppa every chance I get. The space is pretty cozy, best suited for small groups, and it gets busy on weekend mornings. In the summer they have additional seating outside.

Went on a saturday and got the bagel sandwiches. We split two sandwiches, and I loved how unique the combinations of toppings were. The bagel itself wasn't too special other than the fact that it's on the thinner side, but honestly, I liked that because I could really taste the toppings. Their coffee was pretty decent too. There are both indoor and outdoor seatings

Cheerful breakfast option in Greenpoint that has indefinitely taken over the former zero-proof Getaway bar's space. They have a rotating menu of options, with tacos available on Wednesdays and bagel sandwiches on Saturday. I had the "Salt n' Pepa" sandwich with scrambled egg, crispy onions, and a very sweet chili jelly which reminded me of a certain infamous fried rice cooking video. The crispy onions were a nice touch, although next time I'd probably opt for a more savory option without the jam.

maple lavender and biscoff latte
Jenny Z.

Rushed here on a thursday morning to try their infamous breakfast burritos and they did not disappoint! The ingredients are so fresh, service is fast, and everything was so filling as well. Here's a rating of everything we got: -breakfast burrito (4/5): really really solid breakfast burrito that tasted really clean. The tortilla was really high quality, eggs were soft, and potatoes were crispy. If I were to be a little bit critical, I wish the exterior was a bit more crispy and there was a bit more of a crunch factor in the burrito, like hash browns, to make the ingredients blend together better. Overall though, the burrito was top tier. -biscoff latte (5/5): phenomenal latte, not too sweet at all because no added sugar, and so refreshing. I was surprised how much this latte blew me away -maple lavender latte (4/5): also good with orange zest... slightly sweeter, but comforting if you get it hot. Has a zesty more citrusy flavor if you are into that. So happy I tried this place. Would definitely come back!

Green eggs and jam
Diana E.

So much to love. Green eggs and jam - pesto, goat cheese, and blackberry on an onion poppyseed bun. Delish coffee and good music taboot. A fabulous way to start the day.

Tangerine juice
Anthony P.

RATING: 8.5/10 Reallly solid breakfast option. Heard about this place for a while and finally got to come here, and while I was hoping to catch them on a breakfast burrito day, I had the pleasure of trying their breakfast tacos instead BREAKFAST TACOS Really really good texture with two types of tortilla so you get a bit of softness and a bitch of crunch like a better gordita crunch (I hate to compare to taco bell). really well decorated, full tacos with soyrizo which I was skeptical of but it did have a good flavor and i wasn't upset at all that it was vegetarian. Good texture-wise. Would def have again. Quality is noticeable here! TANGERINE JUICE Tastes fresh, and really concentrated in flavor. How you would like juice to be, and on the sweeter side. This place is one of the spots in greenpoint that keeps me coming back! CATEGORY : EXCELLENT (terrible , bad, ok, good, great, EXCELLENT)

a cup of coffee

I stopped by Blue Light Speak Cheesy on a Saturday to try some of their bagel sandwiches and they truly did not disappoint! My wife and I tried the Bagel w/ egg & cheese ($9.50), the Marisa explains it all ($12), as well as the Honey pistachio latte ($6.50). Everything was delicious and the latte was one of the best I've had. I can't wait to come back to try their tacos and breakfast burritos. I hope this pop-up stays up for a lot longer. Also, the service is so friendly and accommodating. They also have a self-service water station and restroom.

Breakfast Burrito (Add Avocado)
Evan N.

Made an effort to come here on a Thursday morning before work to get a breakfast burrito and wow was it worth it! It was expensive because after adding avocado for an additional charge it was $15.50 but damn was it worth it. I legit will think about it. The honey pistachio latte was made with pistachio milk and didn't disappoint! The place is a cute vibey place with everyone in the staff being so kind and warm and playing exceptional throwback music! Tons of seating outside! I loved it here! It made me happy!

Burrito Bun Breakfast Sandwich (~$14)
Aya E.

Ordered: Burrito Bun Breakfast Sandwich (~$14): pasture raised scrambled eggs, organic spinach, avocado, Cabot pepper jack, chipotle aioli & crunchy lime red cabbage on an onion poppy bun Aya's take: What a killer of a breakfast sandwich! I was in the area and this was the 3rd place I came to; the others were closed (it's a holiday weekend so I understand). The Blue Light Speak Cheesy has a few tables and almost all of them were full. We were able to snag the last available table while I ordered at the counter. I realize they serve different sandwiches on different days of the week (I went on a Sunday) which could motivate people to come back on other days. On the other hand, it could be disappointing if they're not serving what you want on that particular day. Anyway, onto the sandwich! The Burrito Bun Breakfast Sandwich was so well-balanced. From the soft scrambled eggs to the tangy and vibrant red cabbage to the flavor of the pepper jack to the freshness of the spinach and avocado, it was everything you could want in a breakfast sandwich. I think the only thing that would make it better is if it had a layer of crunch (like a hash brown). Nonetheless, it was so filling and hit the spot. I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area and I can't wait to come back.

herb bun
Nadia C.

BEASTED! Such a perfect spot! Everything about this experience today was perfect! We lucked out on finding parking, beating the rush AND scoring a table. We got their sandwich's which were flavor packed and two coffees that were beautifully garnished. This small little joint was packed and busy but the staff still found time to check on us and explain the menu. Loved the big open windows and would highly recommend to anyone in Greenpointe!

Just grabbed a drink here (matcha was delicious) - I was already full, so I just drooled at the sandwiches instead.

Aside from beer, is there wine served? Thank you

Hi Alex! Since we are a pop up we have multiple locations but this one in Fullerton is open on the first Friday of the month from 6-11pm. Our next one is June 7th. Hope to see you there!

What is gluten free there to eat ? What are my options?

Hi Chris! I have gluten free bread so you can choose any of the 5 sandwiches on our rotating menu. Since gluten free bread is always so small I make 2 for an order. Hope to…

first time at this place and I waited in line for less than 10 min and the same amount of time for…read moremy to go pastry box to come out the pastries are delicious and they're all so different! the cashier was really nice and helped me pick out some good ones and my fav was the almond croissant one! so yummyyyy can't wait to come back for the lunch menu!

xia ($19) - my number 1 recommendation because after trying…read moreeverything else, this remains the best - something about the combo of shrimp, egg, and cheese just makes the flavor super well rounded; nothing fancy but a good basic - it always comes hot, fresh, and crispy with jumbo snappy shrimp pastrami beef tongue ($21) - my number 2 choice if you want something less basic! - it was heavier with more flavor than the shrimp; it also felt fattier in a good slutty way because the meat was super succulent rousang ($16) - this is where i start questioning their menu only because this is still scallion pancake but half the portion of the xia - regardless of the portion, i loved the flavor and texture; it got a good amount of rousang paired with egg and cheese - scallion pancake itself was super crispy but a lot thinner than the one above san bei ji chop'd cheese ($21) - this was not bad but flavor wasnt as good as the 3 above - i didn't really taste the 3 cup fan tuan ($7) - i cried when i saw this because it was the skinniest, shortest, tiniest fan tuan ive ever seen in my life and most expensive... - fan tuan is supposed to be so massive with lots of rice and filling that your blood sugar level spikes like crazy ok; this wasn't enough to send me to a coma so it was a fake fan tuan - it breaks my heart seeing them sell this because you cannot call this fan tuan - i will give credit for them for serving a crispy 油條 (chinese fried donut?) though red date cake - really yummy super moist and not too sweet bolo bao - too expensive and ordinary; just get it at a regular asian bakery mochinut - very dense mochi donut! So so chewy your jaw will have to get to work; i can see how some ppl wouldn't like it bc it's too chewy and dense but i loved it rating: 4/5 - if i take into consideration of the whole menu, this would probably be 3/5 but since i always just get the scallion pancake and pastries, and they have consistently been delectable, it's a solid 4! - i just love the texture and flavor a lot especially the xia - the ambiance is super hippie and chill; it's a perfect spot for breakfast and quick bites; they also got this bar section with a tv playing old school films giving retro vibes - their pastries were all delicious with some unique selection - service has consistently been amazing; workers there were all happy and chill vibes - definitely give it a try but start from the xia and pastries for sure IG: @nom.noms.only
