Crema's Take
“SEALD has cracked the code on matcha—regulars rave that their version has zero of the typical bitter aftertaste, and they're not shy about flavor variations like ube and banana that actually taste good. The East Village spot pairs this with genuinely comfortable seating (couches included), strong coffee, and a design that makes you want to linger for hours, making it one of the rare cafes where working remotely doesn't feel like a sacrifice. If you value comfort and quality equally, this is worth the trip.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Dog friendly. Wifi. Parking available.

Great little spot in East Village. Was looking for a comfortable place to work at, preferably somewhere where I won’t have to sit on uncomfortable small wooden chairs. This place was an oasis! 2 comfortable couches with pillows, natural light, relaxing music… Finished my work…
Extremely cute cafe. Cozy and can easily get work done here. Theres comfy couch spots and normal table spots. Chargers do laptops too! No bathroom tho
I usually don’t like matcha but tried this spot because my friends vouched that it was different and great. They were right! Idk what they’re doing different but there is no bad aftertaste in any way. I’ll be back for sure. The atmosphere is so cozy and nice too! Nice music but…
I finally had the chance to stop by today and it was such a great experience. The coffee was outstanding and the matcha was one of the best I’ve had in the city. Also, hats off to the chef for the food because the breakfast dishes were absolutely delicious and made with so much…
