Crema's Take
“The Buren pulls off the neighborhood coffee shop sweet spot with genuinely well-balanced espresso drinks that actually taste like coffee, not syrup delivery systems, plus a kitchen that takes breakfast seriously enough to draw people in for more than just a caffeine fix. It's the kind of place where you can linger over a laptop or meet friends without feeling like you're in a chain, though fair warning: portions skew small and consistency seems to depend on the day. If you're in Brooklyn and tired of the usual suspects, this is worth the trip.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

The Buren (Broadway, Brooklyn) A nice neighborhood coffee shop with good-quality coffee that’s definitely better than Starbucks. The drinks are smooth and well balanced, not watery or overly sweet. Cozy atmosphere and a great local spot to grab coffee.
Food was good but portions were small. Got almost NO egg on my sandwich :(
Pretty good! My friends and I were hungry on Sunday and didn't feel like ordering in or travelling very far for lunch, so we decided to check out a local spot. Overall we enjoyed it.
