Read moreI took the L train from the 14th street stop under water to the uncharted territory of Brooklyn to meet a friend at Copper Mug and demolish my 4th cold brew of the day. I know, a lot to unpack there but yeah I'll admit 4 cold brews by 2:30pm is WAY too many. My anxiety was really not loving that ahahaha I was lowkey tweaking after. Also, the L train going literally under water trips me out every time like damn... Oh and don't you dare say "underwater," as the correct term is "under water." I typed "does the L train go underwater" into google just to double confirm because y'all love to chirp me if I'm wrong, and google passive aggressively informed me:
"No, it doesn't go underwater. It goes under water. The tunnels are built in the ground that is underneath the waterway that is traveled."
Anyways, I try not to think about it too much when I'm on the L as Murphy's Law is always looming.
I arrived at Copper Mug early, and it was pretty packed for a Wednesday at 2:15. People were locked in with over ear headphones on, plugging away at their laptops that are plugged in... You know someone is really posted up when the laptop is plugged in ahahaa.
I got my cold brew and ended up getting a seat at a small table. Nice little vibe in here, and also a great place to come sit and read a book. The thing about me is that I will always lurk on what books people are reading lol. I don't really know why, but I'm just genuinely curious what people choose to read. It's such an intentional form of consumption.
My friend arrived and we chopped it up about a new Blackseed Bagel video we are working on while keeping our voices low as it is a bit cozy in here.
This was easily my favorite cold brew of the 4 I had throughout the day. Thank you Copper Mug, for fueling my addiction. I need to get under water more, Brooklyn is tight.

Read moreI just want to preface this by saying that I have never wrote maybe one other bad review in my life. However, after the experience I had today, I feel for the owner’s and potential customers’ sake that I should share this. While it was as a relatively mild incident, it was a very unnecessary interaction that could have been avoided with decent customer service. Also as a disclaimer, I have been to copper mug in the past and this is the first time something like this has occurred. My friend and I came in this afternoon and I accidentally spilled a drink. Everyone around us noticed (a girl next to us gave us napkins, as it splashed on my items a bit), so it’s not far-fetched to assume the two employees saw what happened. They continued to do their work and I went up and asked for paper towels (I did not ask for help cleaning it, just for towels), explaining that I spilled a drink. The barista with short blonde hair was extremely snarky and sarcastic (to quote, she said “amazing, of course”), and neither employees offered to help. I didn’t ask for help, but as someone who has worked in service jobs for multiple years, they could have at least offered. They continued to watch us and do nothing as we cleaned up the drink and we ended up leaving because we felt so unwelcome. It would be one thing if they were busy, but there were no customers in line or drinks being made at the time, so I don’t really see an excuse or reason for this. I will not be returning to this location and urge the owner to be aware of their employees’ behavior. It’s...
