About the Business

Welcome to Featuring The Cafe
Nestled in the heart of Manhattan at 236 West 135th Street, Featuring The Cafe is more than just a delightful culinary destination; it's a community hub where passion for food meets a mission for empowerment. Founded by the visionary Arnyce, who also serves as Executive Chef, our cafe is a proud extension of Featuring, The Center for Culinary Arts. With a rich background in both culinary arts and management, Arnyce brings her experience from New York and France to create a unique dining experience that celebrates the culture and history of Southern French cuisine with a New Orleans twist.
At Featuring The Cafe, we are dedicated to more than just serving delicious meals. Our mission is to empower individuals facing employment challenges by providing high-level culinary and restaurant operations training. We believe in the power of food to transform lives and communities, and we're committed to helping our trainees become independent and successful contributors.
In collaboration with Rev. Dr. Odell of Interruptions Disrupting The Silence, LLC, we integrate creative arts and educational platforms into our programs, advocating for mental health, gun violence prevention, and social justice. Our partnerships extend to organizations like ConnCAT, which equip under-employed adults with skills for meaningful careers.
We also proudly collaborate with Courtney Foster Beauty, led by the talented Courtney Foster, to emphasize the connection between beauty and health. Her innovative E-Book Cookbook, “The Beautiful Hair Diet,” complements our holistic approach to well-being.
By dining with us or supporting our initiatives, you contribute to a larger mission of community growth and sustainability. Your generous donations help us partner with local businesses, support disaster relief efforts, and provide our trainees with the skills and confidence they need to succeed.

Reviews
"MUST HAVE! Salmon Bagel at Featuring Cafe and it was fantastic. The bagel was perfectly toasted, with just the right amount of crunch on the outside and a soft, chewy inside. The salmon was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned, with a delicate smokiness that paired beautifully with the creamy spread. The addition of the tangy capers, and fresh added a delightful balance of textures and flavors. Every bite was a perfect combination of savory, fresh, and satisfying. If you're a fan of salmon or just looking for a delicious sandwich and/or refreshing iced coffee…I'll definitely be coming back for more!"
"I recently visited Featuring The Cafe and tried their matcha latte, and I was thoroughly impressed. The matcha had a rich, vibrant green color, which is always a good sign of quality. The flavor was perfectly balanced not too bitter and just the right amount of natural sweetness. The texture was smooth and creamy, with a velvety foam on top that made each sip a delight. You could tell they used high-grade matcha powder, and the barista’s skill was evident in every aspect of the drink. If you’re a matcha lover or just curious to try it, this latte is a must-have. I'll definitely be coming back for more!"
"Human experience. So much consideration Center of this Cafe goes beyond the front door. Each product has a story so does this Cafe. To go in and be greeted with such open Hearts makes every mouthful exquisite."
"Just took my first sip of the tulsi chai and it’s so yummy and well spiced! Highly recommend this Black woman-owned business run by a local Harlemite who believes we all deserve fresh, high quality, seasonal beverages and foods. Thank you for your openness to my questions."
"Honored to be the first to review this place! New neighborhood cafe on 135th, the coffee is very tasty and the owner is very welcoming and passionate about serving high quality food and beverages. Seating is limited but they do have some supplemental outdoor seating. Check it out!!"
