Emma's Torch

Crema's Take

This beloved Smith Street spot strikes a real balance between serious coffee craftsmanship and genuine neighborhood warmth, with a team that actually listens to what you need (dietary restrictions included). Beyond their signature drinks like the Hawaij mocha, Emma's Torch wins people over with thoughtfully sourced seasonal food, generous breakfast hours until 3pm, and that rare combination of being equally great for lingering solo or gathering with friends and family. The picturesque outdoor seating and cozy interior make it the kind of place regulars fiercely defend and newcomers immediately feel at home in.

Everyone here is so great, keeps me coming back. They’re very considerate of my dietary restrictions. Food is well made with good ingredients. Seasonal menu rotation always has good vegetarian / vegan options.

the atmosphere is great, outdoor seating is picturesque. the food wasn't to our liking, the avocado on toast's bread was stale, the eggs was cold, and avo mash lacked seasoning. but all aside the employees were friendly, so it might be they were having a bad day?

Know this organization from having their yum coffee at Grand Army Plaza library. Went to their Smith Street location brookyn. Had the Hawaij mocha [spiced cocoa w/ expresso and milk]. Not my usual. Usually just a coffee girl like a hot Americano. Simple LOL. But liked this cocoa was nice flavor real cocoa. Can not go wrong with expresso and hot milk. Plus had a Cinnabon. Cream on it real cream if ya know what I mean. Lol

Emma’s Torch is one of my absolute favorite places in the neighborhood. I have eaten here a bunch and always look for a reason to support this folks here. The food and service are always 10/10. They are a pillar of the community and I always leave feeling happy and satisfied, whether it’s something from their grab and go, a pastry and an iced tea, or one of their made-to-order items. I most recently had their breakfast wrap and it was delicious, but I also really love their omelette sandwich. Their cinnamon rolls also knock it out of the park. If you happen to be in the neighborhood, don’t miss this spot. They also have a lovely patio! Their team went out of their way to set up a table for us today - so incredibly kind!

For the first time I was visiting Carroll Gardens and Cobble Hill so I was very happy to find a restaurant that serves breakfast until 3pm. This restaurant was so charming and cozy! I came to the register and ordered from the menu and I got to choose my table and they brought my food to me. I ordered an Iced homemade Chai Latte. It was very delicious! It was ready in a minute the moment I sat down. Then I ordered the Sausage, Egg, and Cheese on a homemade biscuit. To say it was amazing is an understatement. It was delightful to have a homemade breakfast sandwich. The staff is very friendly. This restaurant has so many offerings that I know I will be coming back in the future to try them out. This was a charming restaurant. I highly recommend it.
