the lavender latte was yummy! make sure to specify if you want it with or without espresso because they automatically default to without. we came on a saturday afternoon and had a quick bite here. got the garden (?) soup and it was okay. not a fan of the dish itself/flavors. the interior is cute, and we were able to get a seat inside. the bathroom was very clean! staff is friendly & they also serve beer. i wish there were more pastries/small bites read more

I came here on a Wednesday around 11am. All three of the tables were full, but barstool seating was available against the window. Their croissants are delicious. They warmed mine up so it was hot and fresh. Perfectly buttery and flaky. I also tried their seasonal Oktoberfest latte. It had pumpkin puree blended in. It was very sweet, but tasty. Service was fast. They also have free wifi. read more

bad food and overpriced and the owner who rudely responds to customers that spend their hard earned money for an honest critique. Please feel free to go through google reviews and see how they speak back after charging people for poorly produced plates of food that is no other faults than theirs. Dont recommend many other spots in the neighborhood that are much better ! read more

Brooklyn cafe's day by day haha I now work in BK & want to try the coffee spots near me - it's essential. This was the only spot open nearby past 3 so I took a short drive over. The outdoor dining was SO cute and it was sunny so I took advantage. I went inside, the girl behind the counter greeted me & told me to scan the menu! I got a regular iced latte oat milk, while my friend got their lavender latte! Both delicious! We enjoyed it "to stay". I noticed there was a rush after us and she was the only one working so they might be understaffed but she was quick! A lot of the drink options looked amazing, like the turmeric latte & then I noticed they had a breakfast menu & pastries towards the side. The coconut yogurt is calling my name -- which I will def be trying when I come back! read more

Love this place. It's comfortable and the food is good Staff is incredibly friendly and sunset is gorgeous.

I love this place! Food is good and people are nice. I have one issue that I'm just adding here in hopes the management sees it. The to go sauce containers are lcomically small. When you eat in you get a fair amount of pico and salsa. But this is just not enough lol and it's not even filled up. It's such a cheap part of the meal but so important for the eater lol it doesn't make sense to skimp on this part. If ur reading this doing to go: Ask for extra sauce! read more

Hello, weekend! I am in the mood for BRUNCH. Tikal Cafe is a Bushwick-based small business rooted in a plant-based lifestyle, serving vegan/vegetarian dishes daily. It is a quaint space to refuel or rehydrate with indoor and outdoor seating. After glancing at the menu, I was pacing back and forth, figuratively. I bet you're wondering which dishes caught my eye. Take a look at this mouth-watering list, which is only a fraction of what they offer: *Acai Bowl Açaí Puree, Pitaya, Banana, Seasonal Fruits, Homemade Granola, Chia Seeds and Oat Milk. *Egg sandwich Scrambled Eggs, mozzarella cheese, Chipotle Aioli, Smashed Avocado, and Spinach served on a house-baked Croissant. *Waffles (GF) Rice Flour Waffles, Mixed Berries, Strawberry Butter, Coconut Yogurt, and Maple Syrup. *Tikal's Burger Impossible Patty served on Toasted Brioche with Mozzarella, Tomatoes, Lettuce, and Chimichurri Served with Roasted Potatoes. Plus, they offer pastries, smoothies, alcoholic beverages, hot/cold drinks. I smiled at the sign reminding customers that this was not a fast food establishment and to be patient because all meals are cooked to order. Who can complain when what awaits you is fresh, wholesome, and nutritious? Based on a neighbor's recommendation, I chose the burger. I have no idea how anyone could add a slice of avocado or an egg (tempted to try it for myself lol) when it was already tall and hearty. I love a juicy patty, and the pairings worked well. It was a great first impression, and I hope to visit again soon. read more

Ordered from here through Grubhub and it was pretty good. Egg sandwich- very large portion on a freshly baked croissant. Tasty. Green juice- heavy kale flavor, good only if you're super into green juices..a little much for me Berry muffin- good but it was the size of a cupcake, not worth the price Seasonal fruit- decent amount, fruit was fresh read more

Lovely café with vegan and vegetarian fare. We tried some of their lattes. I had one with horchata and oat milk, Rus had the lavendar latte. Both were very good! I'd love to try other drinks on their café menu - they had lots of unique latte options. We also tried the almond croissant, which the staff mentioned they bake in-house. The croissant was really good. I love my croissants fluffy and buttery, and this was exactly that. Tikal Cafe has indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor area had lots of beautiful plants. Looking forward to our next visit! read more

A 4 minute walk from our Airbnb on a snowy morning, this place hit the spot! Great coffee, smoothies and a small but tasty menu. We had the breakfast sandwich, burrito and bowl - large portions so we left fueled for the day. Super friendly service! Small space but we got lucky and were able to sit at one of the 3 tables. If I lived here, I would be a regular! read more

I love this place. Best Horchata lattes everrr. The people here are so kind and friendly. The food is healthy and light. And they bake their own croissants everyday. It is also so pleasant and clean inside to relax for lunch. Thanks Tikal!! read more

This place makes the most heavenly oat milk dirty chai lattes. Literally never had a better one. Their croissant egg sandwich is a delicacy (wish there was a gluten free option now that I have to be gluten free). Love a delicious vegetarian cafe with great service and cheerful vibes. read more

So happy to have a place with horchata lattes nearby. A little pricey but definitely a nice place to grab some food and also work with laptops. Definitely worth it :) The lentil soup was a perfect portion size and with great flavor along with the perfect amount of spice. Come check out this neighborhood joint for a special lunch or fancy coffee! read more

Really wanted to like this spot and support a local business, but left disappointed. Came on a Sunday morning, wasn't very busy, but it took 30 minutes (!) to get an iced coffee and a hot drink and then 45 minutes for an açai bowl and an avocado toast. It seemed like our order kept getting forgotten since everyone else was getting their food...especially the Uber delivery guys No one really checked in on us, so we finally just asked for our food to go. Food wasn't very spectacular especially for the prices. Maybe they still need to figure out a system that works, so if you decide to stop in for a coffee or food make sure you don't have anywhere else to be for a minute. read more

The service was okay but I wanted to order a strawberry smoothie and they were all out, so I ordered two other smoothies for my aunt and I and apart from waiting 10-15 mins for them to make it, it didn't taste like anything at alll! And the "mixed berry" smoothie only tasted like banana with a purple tint to it. $20 wasted! I'm not coming back read more

I love Tikal Café I always go for coffee and brunch, and now they are opening dinner with different options.

I'm so glad I stopped in here for breakfast and just ended up staying the whole day because its a LAPTOP FRIENDLY COFFEES SHOP. With Horchata Lattes? Yes. I will be returning. This cafe is vegetarian, so I have a BLT made with tempeh on sourdough bread. It was good. It wasn't mind blowing, but it was a wholesome, nutritious breakfast. I had that with the pumpkin spice latte. The lovely woman behind the bar told me that they themselves roast the pumpkin and make it into a puree for the latte instead of using syrups. I love that, and you can certainly taste the difference. Great latte. Like I mention, I ended up staying here the entire day. It's a small space, but they do have wifi and comfortable seating. At some point, I tried the Horchata Latte. STAPLE menu item. Delicious. I am coming back for this specifically. I'll probably get the egg sandwich next time because it's on a croissant and the eggs looked so fluffy. Thank you, Tikal for such an amazing day spent here. Great lighting for pictures too :) Side note: it's rather cold in here. Dress warmly (bring a sweater/scarf in case) read more

Decided to try a new spot in the neighborhood. I was asked for my vaccine card to eat inside. Patrons who came inside to order were not asked to put on a mask, some even waited inside without the mask on. PLUS; they allow animals (dogs?) inside & the cushions were full of dog hair!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just a tip maybe vacuum after dogs lay all up on your furniture because other people do not want to swat dog hair off their clothing after they eat !!! The rocket fuel cold brew was not it for me, definitely had a certain taste. I had to ask for more oat milk to drown out the flavor. The avocado toast was just bland no seasoning ... would not recommend to anyone I know ... won't be back to try anything else ! read more

A nice, quiet, and very relaxing space. I came here in the morning to try a new spot for coffee while doing my work and got just that. The space is comfortable for a quick coffee or croissant with soft music and tons of natural light. The service was fast, the staff was extremely understanding and patient, the space was clean, and the seating was very inviting and available for those with a friend or those going by themselves. I'd recommend this for any locals in the area that are looking for a nice space and it is definitely a location worth checking out in the Bushwick area. As far as menu items I've tried, I recommend the matcha waffles for those who love sweets! read more

Ordered via grub hub and I was not impressed. I got the açaí bowl with a iced matcha latte. The Latte was half full like wth who does that and it was very bland. As far as the açaí bowl I've had better. The blueberry still had the stems on them. Like come on. Never again read more

First time visiting this location, walked in had to ask about how they work in ordering. They were quick to help! You can order at the counter or they even have table service. Quick and easy to pull up their menu on your phone. I had the Avocado toast Benedict. If you are hungry this is the choice for you! Eggs were cooked to perfection and the potatoes added the extra filling. In addition I ordered a iced late which had enough balance of flavor. I will be back! Very friendly and my taste buds were satisfied. read more

I love this cafe. And i usually come in at 7:30am all of the time. Today i go in and they say they are closed and don't open until 8am when i was just in there yesterday at 7:30am. So im pretty annoyed because even the hours on Yelp say 7am. Im so pissed i may never come back. read more

I ate here more and more, basic but really good Acai bowl, I am obsessed with their walnut pesto quesadilla. I also like their Croissants as well chocolate and almost, definitely fresh baked. My mom is vegetarian and I am going to bring her here for lunch. Nice atmosphere inside as well indoors and out door dining. read more

This place is like literally the cutest cafe in Bushwick! It's location kinda threw me off because it seemed to be in the most random place but I'm glad I gave it a try. I got avocado toast and an iced caramel matcha latte. Both were AMAZING! I was expecting a single avocado toast but it came with two pieces. The matcha latte was the perfectly sweetened with caramel syrup. My total was only $17 and def worth every penny. The cashier was super nice and wait time was less then 5 minutes. 10/10 would recommend this cute spot. read more

I am visiting Brooklyn for the first time and came up on this shiek cafe. The inside is very clean and modern. There is few tables and a bar to sit at as well as outdoor seating. I ordered an ice coffee (it got me rejuvenated) and a breakfast burrito that was delicious. The wifi was fast, music was great, and most importantly, the cafe felt warm and welcoming. Can't wait to visit again! read more

Cute little cafe. I've been in three times this week after having passed by for months. Day one I tried a vanilla latte. It was vanilla you know. Day two though skeptical I tried the lavender latte. This was a winner. I didn't think that lavender and coffee/espresso would work out that well but it totally does. I also tried an almond croissant this morning that I wasn't that fond of but like I said the lavender latte is a hit. My only thing is I asked for it today without the actual lavender sprinkled on top since I don't like the texture of it in my mouth. I wanted no foam but the barista seemed to not get what I was asking for but that's fine. Also the last time I was in I was charged $6.25 and for the same latte today it was $7. I was mistakenly charged an add'l $.75 for almond milk which I didn't request and did not receive. I was told that almond milk was the default except both times prior I was asked what kind of milk I wanted. But considering the current rate of inflation it would not surprise me if the price has increased in price between Saturday and Monday but the online menu says $6.25 currently. I Didn't stress the $.75 but I'll pay attention the next time. read more
