Better Half Coffee Kitchen — Restaurant in New York

If you’re looking for a cozy spot that hits the perfect balance between great coffee and delectable breakfast offerings, this café and bakery is a must-visit. I recently stopped by and tried their latte and bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on brioche, and I was blown away.

The latte was absolutely perfect—rich, smooth, and full-bodied with just the right amount of creaminess. You can tell they take their coffee seriously, as the flavor was robust without being too bitter, and the milk was expertly frothed to create that velvety texture. Whether you’re a coffee connoisseur or just need a morning pick-me-up, their latte is sure to hit the spot.

As for the bacon, egg, and cheese on brioche, it was hands down one of the best breakfast sandwiches I’ve had in a while. The brioche bun was buttery and soft, providing the ideal complement to the crispy bacon, perfectly cooked egg, and melted cheese. Every bite was a delightful blend of savory goodness, and the quality of the ingredients truly stood out. It’s the kind of sandwich that makes you want to savor every last bite.

In all, this café is a gem. Whether you're stopping in for a quick coffee or indulging in a hearty breakfast, you won’t be disappointed. The customer service is also excellent. Highly...

We dropped by after lunch nearby and noticed this cute new coffee shop in the neighborhood that had strawberry matcha on the menu. It’s a small spot with limited indoor space, but it’s well-designed and has some nice outdoor seating.

There were two baristas working and they were both super friendly, even with a steady flow of orders coming in. I really appreciated that they made the matcha the traditional way—sifting the powder, using a bamboo whisk, and even serving it in the proper cup. That attention to detail stood out.

That said, the wait was a little long. We didn’t mind since we weren’t in a rush, but unfortunately, the drink didn’t quite deliver. The strawberry mix just didn’t blend well, and the overall taste came off kind of chalky.

Still, they’re new, and I’ve got high hopes for them. With a little more fine-tuning, I can see this place becoming a neighborhood favorite. I’ll definitely drop by again to see how...

Such a friendly cafe! The workers all so kind! Ordered a strawberry ice matcha latte; got it as is on the menu. They saw me added packets of sugar to my matcha and the barista came over to me by the counter top I sat at waiting for my food order and brought the simple syrup and offered to add it in as it better incorporates into the iced drink and also added to let her know if I’d like more strawberries. My boyfriend and I also ordered the chorizo breakfast burrito and the lox bagel and it was both to die for! My boyfriend personally wanted more from burrito but I said he was eating the thing is 2 bites! (He’s a big guy 6’3”). My lox bagel was so yummy salmon was fresh and loved the about of creme cheese and capers and red onions put on! Great portion size! We just moved to Woodside 2 months ago so this will definitely be our go to weekend...
