    Access to outdoor patio
    Abbe K.

    A delightful spot that's down a flight of stairs with a nice albeit crowded outdoor space. Fast, friendly counter service and an active kitchen. The iced tea was refreshing, and the ample servings filled us up. Lots of people meeting or working solo on laptops. An unexpected discovery that I'll return to.

    The Chipped Cup has that secret speakeasy vibe, which I love. The inside is much bigger than expected. It had that old, antique look with warm lights and exposed brick walls. They had some baked goods in the showcase, and they offer other dishes such as sandwiches, burrito, toasts, etc. What makes The Chipped Cup extra special is their back patio. It is so peaceful and beautiful! For extra peaceful vibe, go there early before everyone else arrives. We have been to The Chipped Cup a few times, and we had tried a few different drinks and food. I love Liège Waffle, and they make a great one here. It was soft and doughy, rich and had the perfect chewy texture. Lemon Loaf here is gluten free. It was moist and delightful! The Coconut Latte was delicious. Sweet but not overly sweet, with the subtle aroma and flavor coconut. Bagel & Lox came with ample amount of lox, super fresh and delicious. Bagels was not the easiest to cut and eat (in my opinion) even with the knife and fork, but it was very tasty. Loved the addition of the tomatoes in here. They also offer gluten free bread available, and vegan cream cheese options too. The staffs here were friendly and polite. The back patio space was so peaceful and relaxing. About the time we were done, more people arrived at the patio, and even more people in the inside space. We were happy to have our quiet, tranquil time before the morning rush.

    Cute spot in the area with great coffee and food. Came here with a friend during the week to work from home together and it was great! This place does get very packed so getting there early is your best bet, especially if its raining because of the outside seating. I want to come back in the sumner so I can sit in the outside patio.

    This place is so nice and cozy. I loved the avocado toast and the iced mocha. Will definitely be back the next time I visit!

    Popular Hamilton Heights. are with solid coffee and food options Location: The small sign can be easily missed but take the stairs down to the Chipped Cup cafe with a cozy vibe and a (secret) garden outdoor dining. The outdoor space is not a secret but I actually visited years ago and it was a secret to me at least. Food/drink: Ask about their seasonal latte or drink specials. We got the coconut latte which was served in a nice blue mug. The toaster was broken so we went with the bagel and lox ($15) which was super tasty. Then we had the Lemon loaf and liege waffle as sweet options to balance the savory lox bagel. Overall: Great spot especially outside on a nice day. I would recommend coming on the earlier side because peak volume times can be challenging in the smaller space. Thanks Chipped Cup team!

    I LOVE this coffee shop - perhaps one of my favorites in the whole city. This coffee shop is so unique in that they are genuinely so sweet and kind to the community they serve. It's evident by how many repeat customers they have and that they are so pride friendly. When you walk in, you are instantly transformed into their cozy space and it so relaxing and inviting. I ordered a matcha latte, a grilled cheese and tomato soup (which was a new menu item for them), and an iced oat latte to go. Everything was fantastic!! The grilled cheese went perfectly with the tomato soup, which was honestly (surprisingly at a coffee shop) the best tomato soup I've had in the city so far! The girls who took my order engaged in conversation every time I ordered and were so sweet/complimentary. The place was buzzing with people when I went, but they are coming and going so I'd say it's fairly easy to grab a table and work (which I did - a great place to do that or do some reading/writing). Yes, the prices are high, but that's to be expected honestly. I can't wait to go back and try the bagels or be able to sit out on their cute patio when the weather is warmer!!!

    I just love this place. The decor, the people, the outdoor garden. I come here if i just want a quiet catching up with friends while having coffee. The coffee price is a little expensive but i think you're paying for the space on top of the coffee Which is okey.

    $7.00 for a small oat milk latte?? If you are fine with that (I'm not) you might give this place high ratings.

Probably the best brussels I have ever had in my life and I'm not even that much a fan of the veggie. I've ordered the salt/brown sugar latte twice now. The first time, I got it iced and it was extremely salty and just wasn't a good latte at all. This time around, I ordered it hot and asked them to ease up on the salt since last time it was very salty, they eased up on it and it was such a great latte, I was so happy with it! I've gotten the chicken and waffles twice as well! I'm a big fan of guava infused butter and got two with my order. Generally the chicken and waffles are a HIT, but the waffles tasted a bit off to me this time around. I think it could mainly be that I was focused on how surprisingly good the brussels and coffee were, that I wasn't too focused on anything else. Service is pretty ehh to me at this place. Love that so far each time I've gone at different times and during different seasons, it's never too packed. Even when it is, it doesn't feel like it. I have not tried the dinner, just the brunch! Brunch is def a go too, can't wait to go again! Also, have not had a cocktail here, but looking forward to trying to hibiscus mule next!

The service from both the chef and the bartender was warm, welcoming, and genuine. The ambience is quaint and inviting. I actually changed my mind last minute and chose this spot over two other restaurants I was considering--and I'm so glad I did. The food and the rum punch were so good that we drove back from New Jersey the very next night just to try more from the menu. The oxtails, curry chicken, and brown stew fish were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. The rice and peas were flavorful and cooked to perfection. When we dined in, every patron who walked in ended up joining in conversation like we'd all known each other for years. The energy, the vibes, and the bartender made my entire night. This is the first time I've ever walked out of a bar alongside both the staff and the patrons. Anytime I visit NYC from Texas, Blue Mountain is officially on my must-visit list. Highly recommend! *I ate my meal too fast. Forgot to take pics*

    High-end coffee, pastries, sandwiches in this chill spot with a motorcycle parked in the lounge…read morearea Location: On West 158th street close to Broadway, this narrow store front has bevy of pastries and breakfast offerings with excellent coffee. In the front area, it is a normal cafe vibe with comfy and utilitarian seats. In the back, there is a lounge vibe, I am not of the exact WiFi password but it is something like no laptops in the backroom. I also noticed a sign today that said no laptops after 5 pm in this area which is the standard cafe area not the back room. Over the past two years, the backroom has definitely expanded to have a bar. Food/Drink: We have had a various drinks, lattes hot and cold. The Bourbon Pecan Latte is a long time special and favorite. They take their time to make high quality drinks and put them in mugs if you are eating in. They also heat up the food items. The Parisian, Turkey, ham and Swiss on a croissant was good with their cruller and pistachio croissant. We also tried the Cardamon bun too Service: The level of friendliness at this place feels elusive because there are some regulars who get a warm welcome since we are irregulars and stop by from time to time. They are kind of Brooklyn-type friendly which is welcoming and kind but at the same time cool in a hipster utilitarian way which is not a negative way of looking. It is what it is. Overall: I am a huge fan of the vibe and energy. The backroom is the star to relax with your drinks and food. They also seem to have events at night which sound cool.

KELSEY IS A GEM!! She was so incredibly sweet and kind. My friend's kitten decided to tag along in his bubble book bag to explore Hamilton Underground. Before closing Kelsey closed the front door and allowed the kitten to roam free for a few moments and help him create his very first piece of art work. She was patient, kind and the epitome of what hospitality is. The ambiance is moody, dark and spooky. It's like Halloween year round but I love Halloween so it fits my vibe! The chairs were comfy and it's really a cafe you could sit at for hours alone, with friends or your pet! I had the lemon poppy muffin which was good and crispy water. The pride straws were so cute and we love an ally! My friend had the banana bread pudding and a strawberry iced latte which she really enjoyed. Hamilton makes all their syrups in house and change for the season! Not only do they sell coffees and treats but also witchy things such as crystals, smudge sticks and candles with intentions. It's on trend but authentic. Hamilton isn't trying too hard to fit in. They seem authentically themselves. 100% would recommend and thank you again to Kelsey for being so sweet!
