Stonefruit Espresso + Kitchen, Brooklyn NY

I love how vibey this place is, but it's always so freezing I have to leave early. I'll get a hot drink in the summer just so I can stay to finish it! Staff don't seem to know how to turn it down, so posting here in hopes of the owner seeing it.

$13 for “avocado toast” - 1 piece of simple you can find anywhere bread and smash avocado, wow. Tourist trap? Scam? Will not come back for sure.

The baked goods are not good (VERY dry) but i do love their vanilla lavender latte. I have yet to try their real food items

As a long time customer, it’s clear that they have problems keeping staff around. You have to pay people a decent living wage, otherwise you’re just going to have unnecessary turnover. My recommendation to folks here would be to carefully see where your dollars are going and what businesses you support. The prices here are ridiculous and ones you put up with because there aren’t other options in the area unfortunately.

Are you a coffee connoisseur? A pastry aficionado? Or perhaps a plant enthusiast? If so, I've got a recommendation that will check all your boxes. If you're on the hunt for a cafe that's got it all, look no further than Stonefruit Espresso + Kitchen.

This charming cafe is a feast for the senses, with beautiful plants adorning every corner, heavenly aromas wafting from the kitchen, and a bustling atmosphere perfect for some serious people watching.

But let's talk about the real stars of the show - the food and drink. Stonefruit's espresso drinks are world-class, crafted with care by skilled baristas who take pride in every pour. And if you're looking for a sweet treat to go with your caffeine fix, their pastries are out of this world. From flaky croissants to decadent cakes, every bite is a heavenly experience.

But Stonefruit isn't just a coffee and pastry joint - it's also a full-fledged kitchen, serving up breakfast and lunch dishes that are as beautiful as they are delicious. Whether you're in the mood for something savory or sweet, their menu has something for everyone.

And let's not forget about the ambiance. Stonefruit's cozy interior is the perfect place to hunker down with a good book or catch up with friends over a cup of coffee. And if the weather's nice, their outdoor seating area is a delightful spot to soak up some sun while you sip and snack.

I want to like this place so badly, but I am consistently disappointed. The employees are dismissive and rude. They’ve forgotten my food orders multiple times. Their coffee is good, but there are better options in the area.

Please don’t get the gf bread here.it’s so so bad.i ordered the gf avocado toast and added smoked salmon.it costs $18.50.the smoked salmon was $4 to add and was a literal tiny piece of salmon.for $18.50 i received 1 piece of bread.this is just too brooklyn for me.also the dandelion drink is terrible.sad.
