Crema's Take
“The staff here genuinely cares—one barista offered a customer a strainer for their smoothie after a dental procedure—and that hospitality extends to every drink they make, from meticulously crafted matcha lattes to cold brew that hits just right. It's a small, mom-and-pop spot with chaotic-in-a-good-way energy, equal parts cozy coffee shop and creative laboratory for specialty drinks and smoothies that justify the splurge. If you want a place where the people running it actually know your name and the pastry case is worth lingering over, this is your Brooklyn spot.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Just checked out Nerd Be Cool in Prospect Heights—these $11 smoothies are cute. It’s a small, mom-and-pop spot run by a couple, with a vibe that’s part Starbucks, part Johnny Rockets, and something else I can’t quite put my finger on. I tried the Açaí Elderflower and the Oatmeal…

Such a lovely and intimate coffee shop right near Grand Army Plaza. I ordered a latte with almond milk which was delicious. The perfect blend with enough foam to have the barista paint a coffee heart in it. The smoothie list is impressive, as are all their special coffee…
