What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"This is for the evening/night speakeasy..... Behind an unsuspecting book shelf which actually doubles as the doorway sits a cool speakeasy/bar/restaurant in the back. It's a small space as most speakeasys are with tables and sofa for lounging and eats. Invited for a private event, it was actually very good. Friendly bar and wait staff, with good drinks and bar food. We opted for the wings and bao buns, which both hit the spot. Not sure of the hours, but by the time we left @10pm, the place was humming. Looking for an off the beaten path speakeasy/bar, with reasonable prices, think you'll be pleasantly surprised."
"Popped into Cafe Joah the other day and I’m already a huge fan! This place might be small but it’s big on charm and even bigger on flavor. I tried the Jolly Pong Cereal Latte and it was a game changer, perfectly sweet with a nostalgic twist, definitely my new favorite! The Macadamia Mocha was another hit, rich and nutty, just how I like it. What I really appreciate is their selection of non-dairy milks, making it super easy to customize your drink. The cafe itself is super cute with a laid-back vibe that’s perfect for catching up with friends or chilling with a book. If you’re into exploring unique latte flavors, you’ve got to give Cafe Joah a try!"
"Cafe Joah is a cute spot nestled inside east village, where you can grab a quick drink! The shop decor is cute and modern, and the shelf doubling as a door to their actual bar/restaurant was a cool idea. I visited during the day time though, so aside from the 2 seats by the window and a bench, seating was pretty limited. It’s still a cute space though! I got the strawberry matcha, and it was the perfect drink for a hot day. The matcha was nice and strong, and they actually whisk it in-store too. They also have some cookies and pastries for sale that they get from a local bakery that looked tasty too! All in all, I would pop by again! I want to try their specialty drinks, like the pandan latte and blueberry matcha. Definitely worth a try if you’re in the area!"
"Came here this past Sunday! Loved the cute and aesthetic interior design :-). They have a cute mirror for cute pics w drinks or even w friends! It is small - but there’s a little entrance to a bigger space! Looks like it’s a speakeasy at night or cafe during day, bar during the night 😳. My friends loved their strawberry matcha drink~"
"A cute Korean cafe with a speakeasy in the back. I stopped in for a drink as I had some time to kill before heading to a dinner nearby. The staff was kind and even offered me some free baked goods that they had left over as it was near closing time. What I got: - Strawberry Matcha w/ Soy Final thoughts: The space is small but very cute. There are only two bar seats if you are dining in at the cafe, but through the shelf of coffee beans, you'll find a speakeasy that offers zero alcohol cocktails and food. My strawberry matcha was super velvety smooth, but I did find that it got a bit bland after a while. I'd stop by if I'm in the area or come to try the speakeasy, but I don't think I'd go out of my way for this cafe."
"Small coffee shop on lower east side with one person working there atleast when I went there was only one person. I came here to try the Korean cereal iced..."
