If you're looking for the best espresso in Brooklyn, then your search is over.- congratulations - you've found the best espresso in brooklyn. #noyelprequired
This and Grumpy are your best bets for brewed coffee by the cup from the Clover machine. It's worth the premium, occasionally.
Note that they're asking folks with laptops to scram after 30 mins. This ain't a freelancing or meeting spot.
Olivia PSeptember 21, 2011Regular coffee made in Regular coffee from a french press - $2 and the best in the neighborhood.
Jason MMay 26, 2012Free public restroom. Guys up front are too consumed by their awesome lives to notice
Chris FMarch 1, 2012Wifi password is their phone number 7183021810 - lines can be so long you'll never get there otherwise
Catherine BMarch 12, 2012El Beit means "The House" in Arabic. You're welcome for this language lesson.- Nathen McVittieAugust 24, 2012Expensive at $4 for a small latte, but some of the best coffee I have ever tasted
The mocha here is great-- when they make it right. One of the better ones I've had in the city...
Get the blueberry muffin--they are delivered fresh every morning around 8:30.
Bring your attitude, you'll need it. Great coffee on the strip though.
Americano and savory sweet English muffins are the only way to do a Wednesday. Or any other day, really.
Laurence PaverdAugust 13, 2012This place has gone from bad to worse. Tip would be to leave & head to Gimme, Toby's Estate, Blue Bottle or even swing it "old school" & head to the Verb!
