    Love the tuna melt w/ cheddar on sourdough bread. Don't sit in the back area (near the bar) if it's getting close to 7pm b/c you'll have to move for the live band/artists at night. Many power outlets.

    Great "work from home" office (free WiFi, ton of outlets, cheap coffee), but sit on those gnarly couches at your own peril -- you're guaranteed to leave smelling like musty hippie armpit c. 1969.

    One of the best places in Brooklyn to do work in. Lots of tables, couches, and wifi. The atmosphere is laid back enough that you can stick around here for hours without being weird.

    Great cafe and place to work- but do yourself a sanity-saving favor if you plan to work in the evening and make sure The Carlberg/Urie City Band is NOT "playing" ... "music(?)" on your night of choice

    Family friendly atmosphere during the day and a relaxed music venue at night. Stop in for a delicious Iced Americano and a superb cocktail by Eric.

    One of my fave spots in bklyn. Adorable baristas and plenty of couch space. It's very easy to loose track of time. Salads are great too. But skip the stale cakes and improv nights.

    Tea Lounge feels oddly like it belongs in Portland or Seattle. Massive space, and very mishmash/bohemian interior. Fantastic co-working spot. Unremarkable but decent coffee and food.

    Great place to meet a group, bc seats are usually available. Tea is good and outlets are usually available. BUT not my first choice. The bathroom scares me, as do the grimy couch cushions.

    A real community spot with good food & drink. BK freelancers & students fire up their laptops and work here all day. Enjoyed a breakfast burrito here but wish it was more hearty or at had a side or 2.

    A Park Slope hangout with an extensive menu of juices, cookies, and toastie sandwiches. Drinks include homemade granitas and hot chocolates, as well as the alcoholic variety. Read more

    Live bands every night, an array of tea from around the world, amazing cafe treats and couches so comfortable you may just want curl up and take a nap, makes this an N-Sider favorite!

    Pro-tip: Come here late-night, grab a glass of wine, sit in one of the comfy couches, and enjoy live jazz.

    Open wifi, live music acts, and a coffee-house-meets-wine-bar vibe are among the reasons that laptop toting freelancers all happy hour seekers continue to pack the couches here.

    One of my favorite places in Brooklyn. Great place to sit and work for an hour or so with plenty of tables and couches as well.

    great place to just chill or do work. i love the live music. but i wish when there wasnt a band playing the music wasnt so loud. it's not club! at least half the people here are working.

    when the tall, pretty barista with the tatted arms is serving you, get a steamer with honey. she makes the best anywhere.

    Massive, packed, loud, but somehow awesome. A great variety of patrons, open til midnight, and even later on weekends.

    Huge and cavernous interior, great for groups. Employees are so stoned they can't remember what you ordered a minute after you place your order and can't assemble said order correctly.

    Great iced coffee, I could drink it black. Vegan red velvet cake was a little dry but still pretty good.

    Order yourself a Night Manager if you like light spirits and ginger with basil flavor.

    carrot cake cupcake is great, but this place stands out because of customer service - no attitude here! The second hand furniture makes it feel like your grandma's basement - in a good way.

    Seriously the absolute least-organized, least-capable staff I have seen in a long time. I seriously just had to figure out whose order was whose and deliver it to the customers myself.

    Good luck getting the bartender to look up from the fascinating stuff on their iPhone so you can order a drink.

    If wifi isn't working for you, try changing your seat. It comes in stronger in some places than others. Don't be afraid to ask other patrons if they're also having trouble with it.

    Great place, but getting a bagel takes forever! Even if it's empty on holiday weekends. Either their toaster is crazy slow or they week-after-week forget they put a bagel in there.

    Smoothies are nice; not too thick, not too watery, laid-back joint, Internet is both free and reliable - a rare combination in Brooklyn.

    Get an iced tea (ever-changing assortment) and then step over to the bar and order a shot of your favorite liquor. Empty shot into tea. Sweeten to taste. Chill on a comfy chair.

    Latte was barely warm with a very weak shot, pulled by a guy who didn't know what he was doing. At over $4 per drink, go anywhere else for better coffee at a better price!

    Enjoy this place a lot. Wi-Fi can be a bit slow and dodgy at times. Re-fill price on coffee is inconsistent depending who is working.

    Try the tuna melt or the caprese sandwich. And the chocolate chai tea is to die for, especially if you're iffy about teas.
