Crema's Take
“Nostrand's matcha is genuinely exceptional—regulars rave about the consistency and color in a way that suggests the staff actually knows what they're doing with the drink—and the Korean food menu (think bibimbap alongside breakfast sandwiches) elevates it beyond your standard coffee shop. The espresso-focused roasting has dipped slightly in recent years according to loyal customers, but the friendly service and solid specialty drinks still make it worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood looking for something more interesting than the typical Brooklyn cafe.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and light food on the menu.

Walked in to this coffee spot and enjoyed an Oat Latte with Vanilla Syrup and enjoyed it. Service was nice and quick.
I have tried a bunch of different coffee shops in the neighborhood. This one is my favorite and honestly has the best matcha i’ve had(maybe ever?) They get the color right every time!! And it’s reasonably priced(compared to others) Love it!!! :)
Great micro-roaster/cafe with Korean food, breakfast sandwiches and friendly service. So happy I stumbled on this place! I ordered the bibimbap (hot bowl) and it was delicious! Will def be back.
