ju juNovember 14, 2012order: CHICKEN DIJON - its a dream! or any salad (cause the house's sauce is delicious). then after all, order Chai Latte. i promise you will be happy for the rest od the day.
Francis UdlerMarch 9, 2014Great food and cheap. Hollandaise sauce is so creamy. I even dare to say i like it more than cafe mogador. Breakfast burger, benedict, tater totes boom
Spencer VairoAugust 8, 2014Excellent brunch specials and food is pretty good. Service was on the slower end but it's a great spot considering how busy the area can get
veronica pragerSeptember 7, 2013If it's a nice day, definitely sit in the back garden. The brunch menu has some good options & the extra $4 is worth the included 2 cocktails.
NearSay NYCJuly 25, 2011Open around the clock Yaffa Cafe has everything from chicken salad, to beer & wine, to peach and honey crepes, to pita & hummus platters, to coffee & cappuccino. We can't get enough!
LaurenSeptember 29, 2012Open 24 hours! They have a surprisingly spacious back patio with lots of seating...though I question the decor.
Ethan H.June 19, 2012Gorgeous location, excellent staff. Food was good at and a decent price for the surroundings. And yes, do get the carrot dressing on the salad.
Open 24 hours with patios in the front and the back. Grolsch in the bottle and a chai that will make you spit out every other chai you try from here on out.

Jordan TopfApril 23, 2013Their salads are huge portions. The yaffa salad with chickpeas, olives, carrots, with grilled chicken is a great healthy option.
Diego RufoApril 4, 2011You can get almost any type of food here, from pasta to avocado melts to nutella crepes. And they don't rush you... you can stay there as looooooooong as you like. Read more
Dev PMarch 13, 2011This place is really cool. It's just interesting all around. If you haven't been here and are in neighborhood..walk in, it's well worth the experience!
Megan TarosOctober 14, 2012I really don't like eating alone, but I've come here by myself just for the salmon omelette that is served during brunch. So worth it.
Neal HemphillFebruary 27, 2012The Cajun chicken is excellent. $12 gets a salad (the house dressing is terrific), rice, steamed veggies, & spicy blackened chicken.
Andrea CarnesMay 22, 2011Definitely vegetarian and vegan friendly. They offer quinoa as an option instead of rice if you wish, which is awesome :-)

Dont eat magic brownies and come here for coffee. The place is operated by AI cyborgs who communicate via MS Word and telepathy. Consider yourself warned.
MakedaApril 7, 2012Omelet with spinach and mushroom with a side salad is yummy! Get extra carrot dressing.
Hands down, the best Benedict ever. Complete with pumpkin hollandaise! Eat it!
- SimoneMarch 27, 2011The Decor is amaizing in this place, Real Bohemian and open all the time, what else do u need.
An XiaoJune 3, 2010One of those old school E. Village places you have to try at least once. The stranger the hour, the better the crowd.
You must try their chicken dumplings. Simply amazing :)
Aurora DiazDecember 12, 2011Check out the decor in here, it looks like like your grandmother had a good trip.....
Lucia MancusoSeptember 24, 2010Everything about this place is awesome. Every...ting. Carrot dressing is like crack.
Go to Yaffa Cafe and if it is a nice day, sit outside in the back for some great atmosphere.

"Loved the foie gras terrine, chicken liver agnolotti, and devils food cake. Excellent service. The half chicken with foie drippings was more like an accent of foie, it didn’t have strong flavor."
