Crema's Take
“Slate Café executes an unusually ambitious breakfast menu where the bacon scramble and breakfast pizza rival the coffee itself, making this Upper West Side spot worth the premium prices if you're serious about a full morning meal. The staff's genuine warmth and polished execution draw a reliable crowd of locals and hotel guests who treat it as their default reliable café, perfect for lingering over excellent, beautifully-presented coffee in a genuinely cozy space.”
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.

Clean self service style cafe. Portion sizes are pretty small. Pumpkin spiced latte was too sweet for my liking but Chicken pesto bowl was decent.
Lovely spot for breakfast or brunch. The coffee was smooth and beautifully presented, and the food was fresh and flavorful — especially the scrambled eggs with mushrooms and toast. Cozy atmosphere and friendly service. Would definitely come back!
