"I’ve been coming to this cafe for years, it’s truly a gem! It’s a great spot to sit and get work done, or take a short break in their peaceful backyard. Their sandwiches are great, and coffee never disappoints. The owner is kind, welcoming, and makes the space feel warm and inviting. Highly recommend!"

"An incredibly charming slice of Brooklyn serving Stunptown coffees and a wonderful variety of pastries and Korean street toast. If you have an appetite, don’t pass up the opportunity to try the toast. Beyond the coffees and menu items, PHiL has an incredibly beautiful garden area tucked behind the cafe between neighboring buildings creating a serene landscaped oasis with a variety of seating options. This is a great place to work, study or catch up with friends."

"Stopped by this morning because I didn't feel like making breakfast. I think the toasts and stuff are more their main thing, but the bagel was quite decent! I don't know if they make them themselves or have them delivered but either way, it was fresh and yummy. They have a nice selection of cold drinks too if you're not a coffee person. I took mine to go but they have a cute little seating area if you'd like to stay. Staff was friendly and my order only took a few minutes and my bagel was still nice and warm once I'd gotten back home!"

"Hands down the best coffee shop in the neighborhood. Espresso is incredible and drip is amazing. Great seating in the back for solo hangs with a book or get together a with friends. Can’t wait to sit in their outdoor patio when it gets warmer. Wish they didn’t charge extra for almond/oat milk but that’s my only complaint. Will be back soon (like maybe tomorrow)"

"I came for about 3-4 days in a row when I came to visit my friend in Brooklyn. I got their dirty chai each time - I think it’s unbeatable in the neighborhood. I also found their garden tranquil to look at while taking breaks from my studying. The staff were always kind and understanding, and my friends who I brought here also fell in love with the place."
