Paul BakerOctober 6, 2010Friendly bar, really good food, and live poetry and music downstairs. Perfect for a cold wintry day.
Stop by Murray's (right across Bleecker) for delicious cheeses.- The laundry service is excellent. Highly recommended.
Travis RamseyAugust 11, 2013Farmers breakfast, chocolate croissant good. Bloody Mary is not good. No Capacinos just drip coffee.
Lisa Faith PhillipsFebruary 12, 2010Check out the hilarious show How to Be a Bad Girl for Valentine's Day at 6:00 in the Cafe's Downstairs cabaret room. It is great fun!
David AsomaningJanuary 29, 2012Saw Rebbekka Bakken, Wolfgang Muthspiel, with Brian Blade here on several occasions performing their album, "Daily Mirror"
!:gem:!June 29, 2013You're absolutely right. The waitress with the short dark hair is really abrasive.
The food is always fresh & yummy and it's very cozy here.
- Lisa Faith PhillipsJune 29, 2010Downstairs is a great cabaret woorm with jazz and comedy. How to Be a Bad Girl, the hilarious self-help parody started here as did The Vagina Monolques Read more
UpShift DigitalNovember 14, 2010The breakfast is great. Bloody Mary's are very horseradishy. Btw, they do not require cash for brunch on Sundays.
Beena KalaiyaJune 10, 2010Delicious food, great ambience.....try the hummus appetizer, crabcakes and portobello risotto
Jaime MorelliMay 28, 2011Do not sit downstairs if you want to talk to your dinner companions. You will get yelled at, be forced to remain silent, & have to suffer through avant garde acid jazz unpleasantness in silence.
HolidayDecember 24, 2017Wanted live jazz with brunch and just got brunch. Country breakfast was disappointing, too much crumpled bacon, wilted leaves. Food not up to par with neighborhood.
keeley pattersonApril 30, 2011Farmers b-fast with egg whites is tha bomb. Greyhound is the drink of choice!
KJanuary 29, 2016I do love it here but our service was awful. We were very rushed and felt unwanted. Food is good though.
John ColglazierNovember 10, 2018What is good here? Well, NOT the service and NOT the Huevos Rancheros.
- Lisa Faith PhillipsApril 26, 2010Wonderful jazz and performances in the downstairs caberat and great food too! Read more
