    Stopped in this little gem in the BX. I had a delicious latte w/ hazelnut syrup and a shot of espresso. I walk in and it was the usual heavily decorated Boogie Down decor. A few ppl getting their caffeine fix while buried in their laptops. This was a total of a 5 min trip as my Uber was waiting outside for me. Before leaving I noticed the owner wrote a book and decided to show my support with that as well. I can't wait to read it. I do wish there was a grub hub option for delivery, but maybe it's for the best because this place would get all my money

    A friend of mine invited me to a live event that was happening. It was my first time showing up at the cafe, but I have seen it before. At the time that I went, there was a live DJ outside and about 2-3 entrepreneurs selling their beautiful craft. They had outdoor seating and indoor (the inside is small, but a lot of history around the walls). I had the chance to chat with the owner for a little and thanked her for having this cafe in the Bronx (my home). I also bought a hat (it was slightly expensive), but anything to support my borough !

    Pumpkin Spice flavored cappuccino! Amazing!

    I have been following this places IG account for months. It is all I expected when I entered! First, it is in the neighborhood of my childhood, Hunts Points in the Bronx. The cafe has a window you can't miss,The Boogie Down Grind Cafe. When I entered I was so happy to see the art on the walls. The cute bar stools facing the outside. The small tables and the knick knacks all over. The barista was nice and engaing when I tols her I grew up in the area and would have nevwr imagined a cafe such as this in the neighborhood. She helped me choose my drink because I wanted them all. Cappuccino with pumpkin spice flavors and a beautiful leaf poured! You get a drink card and a smile along with the amazing tasting coffee. They also serve croissants & pastries. Take a trip to the Boogie Down Bronx and hae a coffee at The Boogie Down Grind Cafe!

    Amazing decor and atmosphere Beautiful small Cafe, I had an awesome experience with this place! Is clean, food is delish, friendly staff/owner very attentive. My favorite drink was the Sexy passion not too sweet very balanced in alcohol the other alcoholic beverages were okay. Now very unique design cool a place to hangout with family/friends or for a quick bite; the neighborhood is not the best but I didn't felt unsafe! Definitely I do recommend based on my personal experience. I didn't have time to buy a coffee from them but yes in my next visit

    I wanted my 100th review to be SPECIAL! What can I say this place is SPECIAL. I've been meaning to right this review forever. James and Majora are something special! This place is like my CHEERS, I walk in and everybody knows my name! From The events they give, to the community work they do and let's not forget the tastiest coffee in the day and sangria at night you've ever had! This place is HOME! Support support support! They care! I once saw Majora offer a customer a banana after one too many sangrias. Now you tell me a place that cares for you like thAt! They have built community in this neighborhood and they aren't going anywhere! Other coffee shops in the Bronx better watch out, this is an EXPERIENCE they dnt just serve lattes! And I'm gonna continue to bring the TEMPERATURE to the place that helped me get to where I'm going! BUILD COMMUNITY IN YOUR COMMUNITY PERIOD! I love it here.

    GOAL Espresso Cortado (hemp milk) -Toasty, Buttered bread, Semi Sweet, Smooth, Sea Salt Chocolate , Semi acidic SERVICE - friendly, chill, supportive REFLECTING - Goal: i wanted to further my espresso palette beyond an americano & cappuccino. The barista recommended the cortado. - Pro: I was surprised to find out that I enjoyed it very much. It was small, concentrated but tolerable. I didn't need to force it down or convince myself that it tasted good because it did. - Con: not like a cup of coffee in the form of body and sensation. I missed the feeling of weight and water volume found in a full cup of hot coffee. The cortado was perfect but felt more like a shot of creamy syrup. NEXT STEPS - I look forward to expanding my espresso palette with trying more cortado's and maybe even macchiato's. I also want to learn how time the appropriate moments for a cortado vs a cup of black coffee. The cortado was very good and gave me everything I hoped for except satiety that I get normally get from a full cup of black coffee. I felt short handed in a way because the coffee ride was shorter than I expected. "Cortado" (Corto for short) does translate to "cut short" in latin so I shouldn't complain.

    Boogie Down Grind Cafe is where it's at!! This local venue is very hip and trendy. Right on target with the culture of The Bronx. Creative and innovative. Foods and snacks are always great and fresh. They sell all types of drinks though the name may make you fixate on just coffee. Besides a great cup of Joe you can also grab bubble tea, a caramel frappe, an mixed drink such as an apple martini or the special of the month. The atmosphere is cozy and small but it feels safe which is weird considering the pandemic. The staff is pleasant and hard working. One of the cashiers doubles as a DJ for their saturday night event Uptown Melody. Uptown Melody is a free event held most Saturdays in which the venue showcases artists who sing, rap, write and create. Actual art on showcase as well. They have a small setup outside which resembles a cart of the 6 train. I have to say that it is dope to see them keeping in trend with the BX swag. The owners are very nice, good vibes all around. I would definitely recommend you trying this place out for a quick bite and drink or joining them on a Saturday to get you jam on for free!

    BX has it all figured out. I'm so hyped with Boogie Down Grind Café's uniqueness. I'm getting chills with excitement and getting emotional, all at once- when small businesses, open from the ground up- right here, in these special parts of The Bronx. To make note, Hunts Point was the scene for madness back in the day- yet, thrived- after many decades. The standout offering here is obviously their coffee- soups and paninis, second. Decided on a Cheddar Cheese & Scallion Scone for Mumsy- which she loved. Boogie Down is also full of other Hot and Cold beverage options such as regular or flavor Teas and Chai. Chai Latte was nice! By the way, they go by their "better than Starbucks" motto and if I were still a coffee drinker, I would take them up on it. Service was great, but have to give Ashanti (apologies for misspelling) a shout-out for delivering Boogie Down Grind's message loud and clear- as well as its owners. No doubt, there are still sections of The Bronx that need more attention than others, but unlike the other 4 boroughs, BX has all those delicate and rough layers that make this borough, distinctive and so powerful. And the addition of Boogie Down, magnified this area to another stratosphere; but with joke aside, their mission and location, is what probably garnered my love of this Café initially. What an awesome and mind blowing business decision to have Boogie Down- here.

    I stumbled upon this place in hopes of looking for a clean quiet hip cafe in the Bronx to get some work done . It's located right on the corner and can't miss it . It has a nice open front with beautiful lighting . The decor is so cute . It gives us the native Boogie down Bronx vibe ! The staff was very nice. I had a turkey and cheese panini . It was very delicious. Toasted to perfection. To drink, I originally ordered an almond milk caramel latte, however they do not carry almond milk. The cashier insisted on oat milk, so I gave it a go. I think I found my new favorite espresso drink! The oat milk and the caramel and the espresso combined was EVERYTHING! I'm glad I came across this place , I'll definitely be visiting again while I'm in the Bronx

    See all
