    Get the BEC for breakfast with a side of cholula and sit in the backyard with a flat white. Zappie is also a must try anytime. This is a staple neighborhood spot

    At Early, they’re bringing truffle oil back down to earth in the form of the Zappie. Caramelized onions, mushrooms, garlic, fontina cheese and truffle oil combine in your new favorite sandwich. Read more

    Very nice staff! Love the chichi sandwich. Not all of their sandwiches are great. For example the mozzarella (on caprese sandwich) they use isn't good (fatty but still not very tasty).

    Awesome sandwiches, especially the Chichi, which comes out warm on a super soft hunk of bread and oozes with hot, melty cheese.

    Cider pork and Cuban are both good sandwich choices when you’re in the mood for something meaty

    Simple: Great sandwiches and great coffee. Steak and egg sandwich and the Chi Chi are my favorites.

    Friendliest staff in Greenpoint. Espresso is 💯. Kwason is a perfect hangover cure.

    Fluffiest eggs, butteriest croissants, but SLOW. Def not the place to go if you're rushing to work in the morning
