Another mainstream media trying to control what people think (or suggesting in such a way to make things worse than they are). I think it was funny. I find gender-bending an abomination and that is not necessarily from a Christian standpoint. The whole debacle on unified bathrooms or more to the point, I go into whichever restroom of the gender I identify with, is a liberal, STUPID idea that will allow a bunch of pervs to go hang out in women's bathrooms. Regardless of who you identify with, it's what you ARE....not what you may or may not plan to be. Or how girly you're feeling on a given day. The reason this got negative attention is because that is the spin that the media wanted it to have. They did not report business owner with sense of humor puts up sign to suggest that if you want to share a bathroom with a [different] gender, chances are your privacy is going to be encroached upon. Soooo tired of mindless sheep being told what to think. Sooo tired of liberal thinking. "Everyone is the same"...bullsht!! Rubbish We are different for a reason. The coffee shop owners only mistake in this? Taking...

Update: gave five stars after my first visit. Since then, I’ve been back a few times and have had mixed (including a few negative) experiences. They sell a certain type of coffee mug with an awesome logo (1st photo). After first visit I returned to try to purchase one. The clerk brusquely told me they were not for sale, even though it seemed pretty clear they were. Fast forward to two weeks ago, I stopped back in and tried to purchase the mug. This time, success! After taking the mug home, I then realized it has text on it (2nd photo) that I’m not a fan of. So, I went back to the store today to try to return it in original condition with original packaging, but was told by staffmember that Clever Blend doesn’t do returns. Was disappointed by this. Was probably my last time in there. If anyone in NYC likes the mug and wants it please feel...
Read moreCute enough cafe and I want to support small businesses but the coffee here was so burnt :(
Update: Hey Clever Blend, do you know what would be clever? Actually taking on genuine balanced feedback and not shooting back to blame people on here when people fairly point out what could be improved. Sometimes people take orders to go and can't try it until they've left because they're in a rush. It's also not unreasonable to expect a cafe to deliver a basic standard of coffee the first go around. It wasn't a tad off, it was a two sips and throw it out level of scorching so some baseline barista training and a level of consistency would be nice.
Given your passive aggressive reply, this is definitely not the kind of business I'd want to support, and because of your snarkiness adjusting from two stars...
