HARLEM CAFE,

2259 Adam Clayton Powell Junior Boulevard, Manhattan, New York 10027

"I tried the lentil soup and a cup of black coffee, which taste great. The atmosphere was perfect, the only minor problem was the music was a bit too loud. Aside from the music volume which was lowered by the staff, I would return again for their Lentil Soup."

"Nice breakfast spot with nice staff. The food was pretty good. Loved the hot chocolate. My only issue was that the Belgian waffle was as big as my palm, and for the price ($15 or $17), it should be as big as the plate like in a diner."

"This is exactly what the neighborhood needed! The breakfast here is delicious. We enjoyed the mushroom omelette and the pancakes. The service is ok. The atmosphere is warm and makes you feel like you are somewhere in Europe. Great job to the owner Cisse!"

"Have walked by this place a million times and with friends in town, finally decided to stop in. Arrived around 2pm on a Wednesday and there were just three tables there and plenty of staff with amazing service. Started off with mimosas and sadly they only had regular, OJ and champagne...so I would have prefered another flavor but these did not disappoint. Not sour at all and were on the sweeter side. Ordered the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and the egg sandwich with bacon. Both were delicious, we ate every last bit and didn't leave anything. Glad I finally stopped in as this will be a quick staple for the neighborhood, and I'd love to try other things on their menu. The service was also great with the food coming out hot! So hot we both had to give it a few to cool down. The restaurant was clean and modern with a single stall restroom that was also clean."

"I have patiently been waiting for the opening of this spot and so glad it meets my expectation. If you have ever been to Ponty Bistro for their infamous brunch then please head over here for breakfast or just a nice space to chill and have great beverages. I had the best Chai Latte ever and the peanut butter cookie. The place is kind of still taking shape being new and all but I trust it will be 100% in a couple of weeks! Kudos to the team for a great establishment!"
