It's a spacious and comfortable café. It's great for meetings and also perfect for quietly working alone. The bakery items are quite tasty as well. The staff, in particular, are incredibly friendly. I've found a café I absolutely love. Highly recommend!

What a great place close to Grand Central Station! I really enjoyed my vanilla latte and croissant with scrambled eggs, ham and cheese. It was all so delicious and very reasonably priced, especially for NYC. The staff was very courteous and friendly. A young man named Theo was super helpful and kind. I will definitely be back!

Spots this spacious are a luxury in this part of midtown (this location used to be a Brooks Brothers, so there’s plenty of room.) Great place to meet up for conversation, good coffee, fresh food, relaxed atmosphere.

A place in historical setting reminding of Vienna grand cafés. Plenty of seats and it even looks too huge, but I like the ample space. They have a coffee counter there serving breakfast and lunch. I had the most amazing vegan apple Tart and their matcha latte was top notch! It was almost empty at 9am on Friday which is great for a private meeting.

A luxurious and classy setting that I have never seen in a cafe ; wide windows face Madison Ave and invite the sun with open arms ; marble tables and blue leather seats with wooden armchairs are aesthetically very pleasing ; posters are vintage classics from Life and Time magazine but manage to surprise!! Service is friendly and the gelato pop up store is well placed- their pistachio flavor is sublime; this is the old Brook Brothers location. The cafe is so spacious that it curiously exudes an emptiness when devoid of people ; this place deserves popularity.
