Blair’s coffee bar — Restaurant in City of Yonkers

I thought the place was closed upon first entering, but then the motion sensors clicked on the lights… and I have to admit it was a little startling. The establishment is quaint with some dated decor, think early 2000s rental apartment vibes. I tried to get an iced coffee, but the ice was somehow formed into one solid block. What kind of person keeps their ice in a solid block? The proprietor appears sick. He’s gaunt and pale. It looks like he’s lost an unhealthy amount of weight in a very short time. I hope it’s not contagious. The only positive I could really see is the WiFi is phenomenal! YouTube loaded up like a champ, and my feed was curated with all types of survival, hunting, amateur jiu jitsu, and factory training videos. The algorithm must know this place...

Even I can see this place needs a stove! Went here because I couldn’t find anywhere else at the time. Parking was horrible. There’s a small lot in the back but it was completely full with one car blatantly taking up two spaces. Made my way inside and wanted an iced coffee as well as another patron there but apparently there’s a problem with their ice machine where it only makes solid blocks of ice. I was ok with switching while the other patron was very confused about how ice can turn into blocks and was rather chatty, looked like he really needed a friend. Anyway I sprang for the water jug blend which was mediocre at best. Asked for food and was told the microwave was out of order. Really hard to see how this place received any...

The regulars when I go, usually between 3-11 are good people making it a great atmosphere. The food isn’t too great, I hear the stove is down, or so that’s what they tell me. I’m starting to believe they don’t even have a stove in the establishment. Parking is very limited. It seems every spot in their lot is reserved so I would try to find a spot on raybrook if you can. I also overheard someone saying something about the establishments “pet pig”. Pet pig in a coffee shop? Oh well,...
