"I live in the area and was exploring new cafes. Zelma looked inviting, so I went inside with my Pomeranian. Unfortunately, the staff was extremely unfriendly. I bought a coffee and, since my hands were full, I asked for assistance — which was reluctantly given. When I politely asked to use the bathroom, I was told in a rude manner that it was “unsanitary” because I had a dog, despite explaining that I was seated outside and away from others. The coffee itself was average at best. Overall, a disappointing experience. Stayed there for a few minutes and left. I would recommend visiting one of the many friendlier cafes in the neighborhood."

"Zelma’s Caffe is simply an outstanding neighborhood spot. The staff is warm, welcoming, and consistently makes great drinks. I’m there often enough that they have memorized my order, which never fails to brighten my day. Their beans are excellent, and their café au lait is the perfect blend with smooth flavor and just the right balance of coffee and milk. The menu is reasonably priced too, which is rare on the UWS. The shop itself is fun and inviting, with good music, interesting artwork, and comfortable seating. It also seems to attract genuinely kind people, which adds to the atmosphere. All in all, Zelma’s is an essential part of the UWS community, and I hope it never changes."

"A cozy cafe with a couple of tables and bar seats inside. The staff are really nice and helped me pick out a rhubarb danish (which I hadn't had before) which paired well with the latte I got. Definitely will come back or stop by if I am passing through."

"We have been here several times. The Golden milk is spot on. It's served to you at your table on a cute wooden tray. Beware kind of a high percent if you use your card. The place is cozy. We haven't tried the pastries so can't say."
