Bótani Cafè

Smoothest espresso I’ve had in a long time! Very friendly, professional, and prompt service (fast wait times). Restroom is very clean. A calm cool atmosphere. Perfect for getting work done! Highly recommend.

I love botani! The baristas are super knowledgeable and kind. They regularly have new and interesting menu items, many developed by the baristas behind the bar. They also sell items from local businesses like tumblers, candles, books, and other handmade goods. As the name suggests, they have a mini tropical jungle that makes the space feel super bright, even on gloomy days. In the warmer months, the outdoor seating is so lovely. Perfect spot to get some work done, talk to your neighbors, and get some good coffee.

Best cafe in BedStuy, there I said it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The vibes are warm, the staff is sweet and the drinks are delicious. 
Michael and the staff are all so lovely (Maria, Elena, Parker & Nick my all-star lineup) They curate new pretty plants and books regularly, AND they do pop-ups supporting local artists. My go-to spot to get some work/writing done. It gets busy often, but there’s almost always a seat available. AND THE PLAYLISTS ARE REALLY GOOD I always leave with a few new songs Shazammed and make new friends there on the regular. Love this place. My go-to cafe for 2 years and counting 💚🍵 #botani4ever

I wasn’t going to write a review . But it was my first time at this coffee shop and the vibe is not it. It’s not welcoming they don’t greet you . I said hello with a smile no hello back. I ordered a large matcha latte and when she was about to pour it in the cup it was the smallest cup ever. So I said “oh I wanted large and pointed to large cups on the counter “ it was hard to hear what she said but kinda mumbled - something about those cups are for other drinks? . I was very confused and annoyed. Never coming back. I will attach a picture of my “large matcha latte.”

I stopped by this neighborhood café one morning around 7–8 AM for a quick coffee and breakfast. It’s a small spot, but they do have indoor tables and a bit of outdoor seating, making it a peaceful place to sit, work, or just relax. A few people were already working there when I arrived, which gave it a nice, calm vibe. I ordered a regular coffee with milk, but unfortunately, the milk curdled right after being poured into the cup. I’m not sure if it was the milk or the acidity of the coffee, but it clearly wasn’t right. To their credit, the barista was kind about it, tossed it out immediately, and I switched to a plain black coffee instead. I’m not usually a black coffee fan, but it was fine. I also grabbed a plain croissant, which was simple and decent, nothing special. Overall, it’s an okay spot. If you’re in the neighborhood and want a quiet place to enjoy your coffee or get some work done, this café fits the bill—even if the food and drinks themselves are pretty average.
