Crema's Take
“Union Cafe's coquito matcha and other unexpected seasonal drinks reveal a kitchen genuinely interested in creative flavor combinations rather than just executing basics—paired with handmade pastries that regulars specifically call out as distinctive. The space hits that rare sweet spot of being genuinely cozy and welcoming without the self-conscious "Instagram cafe" energy, which explains why people keep calling it a soon-to-be neighborhood staple in Harlem. Skip it if you're after straight espresso efficiency, but if you want to linger over something you've never had before in a place where the staff actually seems to care, this one's worth planning around.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

Great atmosphere, great treats!
Never had a coquito matcha but it was DELICIOUS! I love that they decided to bring a café to that neighborhood I think it is definitely needed and will become a neighborhood staple
A newfound cozy cafe in the heart of Harlem. Unique handmade pastries and beverages you won't find elsewhere. Go kickback and enjoy as snack.
