Saints

My morning lattes help me get through my crazy days & I need Saint Café! Saint himself is the best, always so helpful and nice. The coffee is amazing, strong & delicious, just what I love. The atmosphere is awesome & I love the interior. Can’t say enough great things, love this place!

Great place, with really great lattes. Improving more and more. Needs to stay open later and turn into a lounge at night with music events that are being promoted! Would get even more business. I hear there are events but they obviously are not promoted very well Bc I don’t know when they are. A flyer or message on the chalkboard on the menu would be a great place to tell people when the next event is. This place can be the start of many more in the area! Let this be pioneer of lower avenue C

Great little café. The freshly baked pastries smell amazing, and they will happily warm any pastry for you. Extensive beverage menu; food is limited to mostly pastries but you can also get chicken or tuna salad on a croissant. Great place to hunker down and get some work done in a spot that keeps a community vibe.

new-​ish coffee/​pastry/​hangout to sponge wifi on Ave C.
this place used to be a cultural center with music etc. i was told those people are still involved with Saint in some capacity.
the space is brand-​spanking new. super clean. bright. constantly smells like freshly baked pastries. yum. it has a Starbucks esque setup except without all the unnecessary dark décor flourishes.
there’s a piano here, so there is some live music evening, days, etc.
all in all it seems like a good place FOR catching up with friends, writing/​working during the morning and day, stealing wifi, lukewarm first dates when quick exits are needed.
all in all i like this place and the staff is earnest and kind.
however i’m knocking two stars off because the iced coffee brew/​quality is much to be desired. heavy on the acid and it felt low on the caffeine kick. now i’m no coffee snob – i drink Dunkin Donuts on the reg (daily). i take mine black no sugar. i enjoy the taste of freshly brewed then chilled coffee. Saints’ cool brew was chilled but not up to par. i will definitely re-​review in a couple of months as this place is probably still getting its act together. i can only speak to the iced coffee as i haven’t tried their normal hot brews. also part of that 2 star subtraction is because most bodegas in the area percolate perfect Bustelo’s iced coffee for two bucks in a bigger sized cup. so essentially i paid 3 bucks for half a cup of acid-​y coffee and half a cup of ice.
dropz mic so i can two fist some D&D iced brew to get my caff-​iend on!
i out!

This café just opened on Ave. C and 5^th. It’s a nice place to come and do some work. They have outlets, wifi, and their coffee is strong. The music was good too… jazz and then a recording of an Adele concert. Good vibe, chill, friendly owner

This spot just opened down my street. Nice staff, tasty croissants, great music! Looking forward to seeing how this place settles in.
#first!
