‘Snice Café
The best Vegan / Vegetarian place I found. There is one in Brooklyn and one (maybe two) in Manhattan. I had a Vegan Chicken Pot Pie in a wrap. It had the crust and all, and it was the best thing….ever. They also had amazing tofu burritos for breakfast with the best steel cut oats ever. To top it off…. The barista’s were amazing, and while the coffee was weak, the espresso was delicious. Totally smooth, loads of caramel undertones. … mm

Gorilla Coffee:
Pretentious baristas with pretentious coffee. I’d have to say the quality is on the lower end of the high-end hipster coffees. It was a little on the weak side, the crema was not what I expected, and it was just as bitter as the barista. Dude needed to chill.

Prodigy: This was by far, the best. We actually found it because we were lost going to another café that had been recommended. The cab driver took us to the wrong location and we never made it. So we stopped at a pizza place so April could refuel, then on our way to Angelica’s Restaurant (WORST VEGAN EVER), I saw prodigy and decided we had to make the best out of a sketch situation. The coffee was ridiculously good, the baristas were cute and knowledgeable and amazing. The espresso was super juicy, the crema was fantastic and prominent. It was like a bang in the mouth. Love LOVE. Find them if you go to Manhattan. |
