Crema's Take
“Hungry Ghost pulls in a steady crowd for solid coffee and pastries in a calm, design-conscious space on 5th Ave, but the 3.7 rating reflects real friction: tables are scarce, prices run high for what you get, and some regulars complain about limited outlets if you're planning to work there for hours. If you're stopping in for a quick coffee and a muffin with pleasant surroundings, it delivers; if you're looking for a reliable laptop spot with room to spread out, you'll likely be frustrated.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

See all on Google →Delicious coffee, good sweet and savory offerings (just a bit pricey). The staff is attentive and extremely efficient. It’s not always easy to find a table, but it’s a perfect spot for coffee on the go.
Nice coffee spot. Good location, coffee and service. Clean and calm place to enjoy your cup of coffee and look outside through the windows.
I just love reading the poor reviews. You guys are hysterical. Complaining that there is no outlets to do “work”. It’s a coffee house not a sit on my but for a few hours and play around. Maybe other people want to sit and enjoy the atmosphere. I’m glad there are no dogs aloud.…
I ordered a matcha latte iced and a blueberry muffin and they both tasted nice! Great for studying and working cozy, calm and amazing style of music! Love this place I recommend. ☕️
soooo excited a hungry ghost is on this block! great atmosphere and as always, great coffee. I love the outdoor tables and the impact that will have on the corner and the neighborhood! can’t wait to go back :))
