⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What a gem! This coffee shop is absolutely adorable, spacious, and has such a warm, welcoming atmosphere. I love that it’s located in a quiet neighborhood in the Bronx, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. One of my favorite features was the outdoor patio, where you can enjoy coffee, food, or ice cream in a peaceful setting. They also have a super cute children’s area in the back with umbrellas, which was perfect for my 8-year-old daughter and made our visit even more enjoyable. The food was delicious, and I especially loved my cappuccino. The service was excellent from start to finish. A special thank you to Zara, who was incredibly sweet, kind, and welcoming. She made my daughter and me feel right at home and truly added to our experience with her friendly and caring attitude. My daughter and I had a wonderful visit, and I can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend for families, coffee lovers, and anyone looking for a cozy spot with great food, excellent coffee, and outstanding customer service! ☕💕🌟

Currently sitting in the business at exactly 9:30am and I am a bit taken a back. Upon first entering I see a single employee and I greet her and inform her that I am interested in working within the cafe for an extended period of time and I ask if that is ok. She immediately informs me that people who come to the cafe generally work for some minutes and then they leave. Hearing this response, I question myself "is she trying to rush me out?" (The number of patrons at all time never exceeded 5 people) I subsequently start asking about some of the paintings on the wall and the cultural makeup of the cafe and its influences, and I received some slightly half-hearted responses. I take this as a cue for me to just stop asking questions. I ordered a Mocha Coffee and a croissant sandwich. I hadn't even gotten half-way through either of my two items before the waitress came over and placed the check on the table. This confirmed my suspicions. Within receiving my food five minutes hadn't even passed before I was given the bill. I arrived in the establishment possibly around 9, and was determined to stick it out at least until 10. Did not feel welcomed whatsoever. Now I will talk about the

The best place in bronx to have coffee and food. The ambience is great. The place is clean and hygienic and the staff is extremely hospitable. They have a separate area for the kids to play. They brew coffee from freshly grounded coffee beans and the place smells devine.

Third day in a roll! I'm totally hooked. Exceptionally great, specialty coffee. Fenomenal service. Amazing atmosphere. Extremely clean and not too loud or too quiet. I definitely recommend. 5 Stars for sure. Oh and Alba is a great host, very friendly, attentive, and on point with detail.

Very cozy place. I just felt like I was in Manhattan. Is a very nice place to go with friends or yourself. You definitely need to try the cornbread with a mocha coffee. That was my favorite!!!!!
