What customers say

This is a hidden gem, really captures the spirit of Greenpoint. It is very trendy, cute and community based— I would highly recommend. I like going here to work from home— big tables, easy to focus, sunny, bright, clean, homey. They play great music and the coffee is great.

Little gem discovered in Greenpoint. what a shame we’re only here for 5 days - if we lived here, we would live HERE. Coffee is delicious, staff is super laid back and welcoming, accommodating any special requests, and how much better can it get than vinyls and coffee in one place… right?! so 120% recommended. Go go go!

This place is the best. I went for a listening party and the owner Lucas was so accommodating and hospitable. The space was filled to capacity with emo kids scream singing Hayley Williams and Lucas was vibing along with us. Great energy. Very cool experience. Will be back.

★★★★★ — Kaitlyn, 2025-11

When you come here you are guaranteed to walk out with a smile. The owner, Lucas, is such a genuine human being and you can tell by the way he greets you & the way he remembers you from the moment you walk in. Our recent trip was for Record Store Day, a day that is very fun but almost guaranteed to be hectic.
