Our Guestbook
“ What gets me out of bed every morning is my short walk to my most favorite coffee place in NYC. My oat latte is made to perfection and topped off with a handcrafted coffee flower. Not only is the coffee wonderful, but the kindness and the welcome I receive every morning from the baristas is the perfect way to start my day. I would highly highly recommend this cafe. They are also teaching me Turkish! They make my day! ”
“ Lion's Milk is a true chameleon of a space, seamlessly transitioning from cafe to wine bar. I landed here looking for a coffee shop in the neighborhood that wasn't totally packed, and the back table here was a totally hospitable place for me to enjoy some coffee and work at for a couple of hours. The seats have backs, inviting you to stay a while and try some of their Turkish pastries. The wifi is pretty strong and I didn't feel rushed out. While I was there they had mostly NFT art with QR codes hung up on the walls, but I think they probably rotate the art out. It's on my list of solid places to work from when I want to get out of my home office. ”
“ Really yummy coffee and unique Turkish pastries. There's a decent amount of seating inside and outside ”
“ I came here on a Sunday afternoon around 4pm. Even late in the day, it was pretty packed, and it was difficult to get a seat. I ordered a Turkish coffee and a spinach and feta boureka. The coffee was very good. The pastry was a bit tough, but still tasty. The inside of the cafe was really cute and I would definitely head back again at a less busy time. ”
“ Ordered: Iced Vanilla Oat Latte (~$8): includes ice (+50¢), vanilla syrup (+50¢), and oat milk (+$1) Aya's take: Cozy cafe with a decent amount of seating in the back. I also didn't realize it was an NFT cafe but the artwork makes more sense now. ~$8 is a bit steep for a latte but I will say it was exceptionally made. The espresso was rich and smooth, the vanilla syrup gave it a subtle sweetness, and the oat milk made it creamy. I didn't understand the charge for getting the latte iced but after the first sip, I found it worth a try. I'm not sure if this would be my go-to due to price and proximity, but if you're in the area, this is a great stop for your caffeine fix. ”
