Salter House is one of my favorite shops in Bk. Shop is arranged with beautiful items - seems like most of the item is organic and using sustainable materials - which I’m always excited to stop by to check their curations.
However, most of the times when I’m there for a quick browsing or buying items, the person behind the counter is rude and apathetic to their customers - which really ruins the atmosphere. It was a couple days ago when I stopped by with my partner to grab a quick coffee and a couple things for our bathroom, the person with blond-ish curly hair did not seem like they want to provide any information about the item nor the person wasn’t keen to greeting their customers. While checking out the items, there were some technical issues where the person started to show unprofessional attitudes - not even trying to fix or work on the devices but just frowning.

Salter House is now at the top of the NYC list of places to go that I share with friends who...
Read moreI had the most delightful coffee break at this new local spot! It felt almost like stepping into someones home. If you are going to stay for a coffee, make sure to ask for a proper cup. You’ll enjoy sipping from a delicate coffee cup and saucer worthy of an IG photo! With so many windows, the shop feels light and airy, which will be very welcome this winter when I starved for sunlight.
I’m happy to be able to bring my vegan friends here for a coffee date as all their pastries are vegan. The woman who owns this spot also owns a shop next door and clearly has impeccable taste. All the items have been thoughtfully sourced for usefulness, beauty, sustainability, and simplicity. I was so happy to see some of my favorite brands in her shop. It’s the perfect place to grab a coffee and a...
