    Bright, open cafe with delicious Forty Weight coffee. Free wi-fi & outlets available. Sat+Sun 11am-4pm this place is a BRUNCH place (with very very good food), laptop-free.

    My favorite coffee shop in Bushwick. A lot of lights, area dedicated to laptops, great pastries and lunch options. Not too noisy. Get the dough donuts and a green smoothie.

    One of the most popular coffee spots in Bushwick, AP has a modern yet casual vibe with a Coffee game that’s on-point (shout-out to the red-eye iced coffee in Summer, the cappuccino in winter). Read more

    This sleek-looking spot sticks out, sitting as it is on street art-festooned Troutman Street. AP Cafe serves decently prepared 40 Weight Coffee along with a casual food menu and offers free wif.

    Scandinavian style, modern, minimalist interior. Bright, airy space with cozy, small tables. Very tasty, healthy food, good coffee too. Good for a morning date!

    Love this modern studio-like cafe. They serve brunch menus as well which are pretty good. Tried their beet/carrot juice and wanted to lick the cup ;) Free wifi for customers.

    Great coffee shop with wonderful light. They offer sandwiches, donuts, and La Colombe espresso, and the people that come through are not bad looking ;)

    Went for the chicken and waffles -- the chicken has the right crunch, the waffles melt in your mouth. 🙇

    Breakfast of champions: Iced Red Eye (beans from La Colombe) and a Cafe Au Lait doughnut (delivered fresh every morning from Dough). Say hi to Jun.

    Had a little difficulty connecting to the WiFi here to work - cool, airy spot. Friendly folks, iced latte with soy milk is good!

    Minimal, Japanese style coffee. Lots of natural light. Compared to the trashy/toilet style coffees you will find around, this is heaven.

    Amazing coffee shop. Clean, good service, I asked about the coffee and the barista let me try a bean. A+ would come again.

    Super-friendly servers and fantastic cold brew. We haven't done any laptop work from here, but it looks like a good place for it.

    Best coffee shop in Bushwick. Workers are friendly and the atmosphere light and fresh, perfect for summer coffee day chill outs.

    Nice staff, cool atmosphere. The "no laptop on weekends" rule is great to keep out those people who camp out at a table all day.

    They know how to make a proper coffee. And their juices are restorative, especially after a hard day's night.

    Thanks for letting me purchase a 12 dollar lunch & then casually noting that the outlets aren't working (only after I asked). 🙃 maybe put up a sign next time?

    The coffee and the atmosphere is good, but pricy. A Perfect calm spot to work or skype.

    The space is lovely. If you're hung over, get a cold brew red eye.

    Seriously people what's wrong with you, forgot to smile? Probably the most unfriendly coffeeshop in NYC. Ps: If you don't know how to tamp bottomless, you don't
