Going? Tell them MUSEENYC sent you. It's not a discount and there's nothing to redeem — we just want them to know where you heard it.
They roast their own, which is the part you would expect to be the story. It isn’t. The food is — made with enough care that every bite reads as deliberate, in a room most people still walk past on their way to somewhere louder.
Get the frozen coffee. Then get the creamy mushroom pasta, which is not what anyone expects to order in a coffee shop and is the reason to come back.
What to know
Still underrated, which is the useful kind of problem: you can generally get a seat.
