Crema's Take

Sweet Dreams Café serves genuinely excellent housemade Italian and Jewish comfort food—think lemon tiramisu that rivals any dessert you've had and focaccia that justifies the detour alone—in a gallery-like space with art on every wall and a staff that actually wants to chat with you about the neighborhood's history. The vibe is unhurried and welcoming, equally suited to lingering over coffee with a friend or bringing your dog for a leisurely breakfast, and it's housed within the charming Blue Moon Hotel if you want to stay awhile.

What to expect

Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Dog friendly. Family friendly. Parking available.

Sweet Dreams Cafe is a gem! We had tea and a delicious cookie while talking with the very welcoming hotel manager Dovid. We learned a lot about the hotel and also the history of the Lower East Side. We would love to come back and stay at the beautifully restored hotel.

We had an amazing experience eating kosher, homemade, Italian dishes last week in this restaurant/cafe on the Lower East Side. It is located inside the Historic Blue Moon Hotel. The small hotel and restaurant is family owned and run, and each family member attended to us with…
