Peckish — Restaurant in New York

New female barista with wavy brown short hair and bangs is terrible and needs to be re-trained or fired. I am a loyal customer of at least 4 years and if I see her working I just leave . Once she gave me a latte which felt light in my hand and down the block I realized it was only half full . Literally 2-3 inches were empty in the big cup . I went back and showed her - her answer ? “We were out of milk” . What ?!? 1) how does a coffee shop run out of normal cows milk and 2) she should have told me she couldn’t make my drink . Another time my latte was barely warm , another time she gave me a cup of foam and called it a cappuccino (had zero milk in it ). I gave up and won’t patronize this place anymore if she is there . As far as I’m concerned Peckish owes me $30 for all of the nonsense this girl served me after I paid her . She is so bad at making coffee drinks she is defrauding the customers . On top of it she is a mess - if you’re the owner look at the cameras . When others work it’s clean , when she works - milk containers , stuff all over the counter - she looks dirty and keeps a dirty counter . I have managed enough restaurants - if I saw my bartender working like her...

I live nearby and Peckish is my favorite coffee house in Fort Greene. The staff is always outgoing and polite (even at 7am) and the coffee, baked goods and lunch items are consistently delicious. I highly recommend the oat milk matcha latte and the apple cider doughnuts as two of my favorites. There’s a bathroom and ample seating, so Peckish is also a great place to meet and discuss projects and/or read a script and write in one’s journal.

Lastly, they also sell the locally-made dog biscuits and even have an area outside for dogs, complete with a water bowl and bench seating for use during warmer months.

The neighborhood is better because of places like Peckish, where you can feel the peace and tranquility of a small town in...

An unassuming little counter serving good coffee and great pastries. I stopped by every Sunday morning before my baby's music class, lined up with a few other people with babies and/or dogs. It's got that family neighborhood vibe which is so nice! In that sense, it's not a destination spot but rather a great option in the area. 4 out of 5 on service, only once was there an unfriendly person.

There are a few interesting lattes (the golden turmeric has a kick!), and the iced coffee is strong. Definitely try the cornmeal biscuit with jam and butter, because butter makes everything better!

The wait is often 5-10 min, so plan on that! It's a lovely stroll with your fresh coffee and pastry to Ft. Greene...
