Crema's Take
“Little Ruby's pulls off the rare feat of being a proper sit-down breakfast destination that doesn't take itself too seriously, with ricotta pancakes, unstoppable grilled cheese sandwiches, and a roster of inventive bowls that justify the wait on weekends. The vibe is genuinely bohemian—expect a tattooed crew who actually care about execution, and outdoor seating that makes Murray Hill feel less like Murray Hill. For the price and quality, this is the kind of neighborhood spot New Yorkers gatekeep until their friends inevitably discover it anyway.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Parking available.

Be careful. Little Ruby’s is serving the kind of grilled cheese that makes you want to devour in private. It was tough to resist the temptation of wanting to lick my fingers after the last bite, somehow I managed. Also the coconut juice is NOT to be slept on. If you like…
