"Caffe Cafe* is a long-standing neighborhood staple in the Bay Ridge neighborhood of Brooklyn,…read moreoperating since 1994 (originally known as "The Original Bay Ridge Beanery)" I can see why Caffeine Cafe is a long-standing neighborhood gem: the coffee is superlative. Additionally, it feels like you are crafting your own Cup Of Joe in your kitchen, it's that warm and cozy. There is a beverage menu that even the fussiest coffee drinker can find something to enjoy. They offer a nice selection of savory and sweet treats made in house like croissants, paninis, wraps, muffins, cakes and macarons and Table 87 pizza. Additionally, they sell their coffee. I stopped by tonight on a windy night to get something hot. Already, brewers and coffee shops are offering pumpkin spice and everything nice. I spotted their seasonal menu and Harvest Moon latte caught my eye. The recipe sounded scrumptious: butter rumbles vanilla syrup plus espresso plus milk plus whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg. I placed my order with Eddie and asked for decaf and no whip. This early evening Caffe Cafe was jumping: patrons dining al fresco to take advantage of the cool September night and patrons enjoying inside as well. My latte was ready in five and tasted delicious: I could taste the butter rum and vanilla but next time I will ask for a bit more cinnamon and nutmeg. It definitely hit the spot. If you are looking for a cozy cafe that serves great coffee this is your place! Special mention to Eddie for his nice service. *Caffe Cafe, coffee house specializing in espresso coffee

You order your food at the front counter, and while we waited, the owner surprised us with a complimentary almond croissant since it was our first visit. It was absolutely delicious -- flaky, fresh, and easily one of the best almond croissants I've ever had. The menu has a great variety of options. We went with the steak and eggs and buttermilk street pancakes. The steak was tender and full of flavor, the home fries were seasoned perfectly, and the pancakes were fluffy and delicious. We also tried the Tropical Bliss Juice, a refreshing blend of pineapple, mango, and orange that's freshly pressed to order. From the warm decor to the amazing food and friendly service, everything about this place was fantastic. I can't wait to come back and try more items on their menu!

He gave thorough recommendations for the different brews available. I opted to try the Bythani Qahwah, since it sounded like something I would enjoy. Bythani is brewed with almonds and spices. It was very flavorful and delicious! Each order is brewed to perfection and was served at our table. I also ordered a chocolate croissant and a slice of pistachio tres leches cake. The food and coffee were wonderful, and the atmosphere was the cherry on top!

**Real Georgian food, right in Bay Ridge**…read more I am Georgian, so I know our food -- and Ubani is the real deal. We had the megruli khachapuri, amazing khinkali, and the best mixed shish kebab, plus more. Everything tasted like home: fresh, generous portions, full of flavor. The atmosphere is the warmest and friendliest -- cozy, welcoming, and the staff treats you like family. This is the kind of place that makes you proud of Georgian hospitality. The best Georgian restaurant in Bay Ridge, hands down. We will be back!

Beet salad was a hit served with big chunks of tender beets. I'm not sure if they boiled and chilled the beets or used another technique to soften them up, but it came out nicely. This time we opted for the khachapuri imeruli. It was delicious. I've yet to come across a khachapuri that I've disliked. Dough was crispy and flakey. Cheese was melty and gooey. Always such a cozy delight. We had the khinkali again - this time with cheese filling. It's a nice vegetarian friendly option, but I prefer the meat or vegetable blend fillings. Cheese in the khinkali was similar to the khachapuri, so it was redundant to order the two together. Would definitely recommend the khinkali but would pick a different filling if you're getting khachapuri. For the main course, we shared the shkmeruli - a roasted chicken in a creamy garlic sauce. I've seen this listed as chicken tabaka elsewhere. It was excellent! Less garlicky than the one I had a Saperavi earlier in the week. Chicken was juicy but the sauce was the star. We dipped the nipples of the khinkali in the sauce to maximize usage. Good list of Georgian wines. Full bar plus some beers including a Georgian one. Service brought out the dishes in a well paced manner. They were very patient as we lounged in their backyard. It was a very comfortable outdoor dining set up. There is one, spacious single occupancy restroom.
