Cafe Here — Restaurant in New York

Newly opened cafe in Red Hook. I ordered Matcha Latte that says $5.50 on the sign. And they charged me $7.15. That’s not cool. Their explanation was tax, ice drink is extra and alternate milk option is extra. They showed me ice matcha was $5.75 on the different menu. But there was no writing of another extra cost. It’s sneaky and against DCWP regulations. Jump to $5.50 to $7.15 is not acceptable. And unfortunately tasted just oat milk. No even tiny bit of matcha flavor at all. Service was slow and unsettle. I challenged them to get explanation of price, but their answer was just “yeah…..”. No apology or any nice explanation.

I understand small local business is not easy in NYC. So I try to support as much as possible. But it doesn’t mean it’s ok to scam customers. And cafe business is already established here, so not much of excuse for new business. At least barista should have communicate well.

Sadly I wouldn’t go to this place until they improve...

If you're not into coffee, the Calamansi...
