Crema's Take

Fiction Bar/Cafe is a beloved Brooklyn institution where the baristas like Massil genuinely elevate your visit through their warmth and craft—people keep returning even after moving neighborhoods just to experience that welcoming energy. The space doubles as both a serious coffee destination with creative signature drinks and cold brew, and a vibrant hangout for Friday night jazz, laptop work, and lingering breakfast conversations. It's the kind of place where the quality of both the drinks and attention to detail makes you feel like a regular the moment you walk in.

Amazing service and attention to detail, and even better quality of drinks/and food! We absolutely loved our barista/bartender Massil, he makes the environment so welcoming, warm, and full of life. We can’t wait to come back here and look forward to seeing massil again (:

I've been coming to this place for years now. I used to live two blocks away and was always grateful such an incredible spot existed right next to me. Even after moving, I find myself there regularly! There have been some changes since the first time I came, but they seem to be for the better! The service is amazing, Olivia is my girl and always takes great care in prepping drinks and keeping conversation. She really makes it feel like a neighborhood community.

I've been coming to Fiction for a few years since I moved in to my old apartment on the corner across the street. I don't live in the neighborhood anymore, but keep coming back. I've seen and felt the changes over time; some good, some so so. I think management has changed or something recently tho because it was better than ever - baristas play great music and good vibes. Strongly recommend. Solid happy hour and late night.

Have been coming here the last couple of weeks for Jazz on Fridays (more on that later) but decided this weekend to get coffee and let me just tell you the iced oat milk mocha with caramel was one of the best drinks I’ve had in awhile. Kamaryn absolutely smashed the caffe drinks both me and my brother had. They are so talented! Such a lovely day time vibe here filled with people reading and meeting up which is so nice to see. If you are a fan of jazz I could NOT recommend coming here more. Super fun cozy vibe, amazing bar staff, great drinks and the band they currently have playing on Friday nights is truly remarkable. Brendan Mark and his band are so fun and so talented. Love this place!

Adorable (& very large!) space. Had the raspberry toast which was delicious & a mocha (eh) would want to go back and try one of their recommended drinks. Staff was very nice, would definitely recommend for solo coffee date or group date!
