New Coffee/croisant shop on Vandy

oh is this the place between st marks and prospect, on the east side of the street? there was a sandwich board out last night about free coffee and soup, but they didn't list when.

I will DEFINITELY check that out. I tried to go to Joyce this weekend, and it was like a playground. I walked in, turned around and left. Actually, I was reminded why I stopped going to Joyce--nice coffee and nice pastries, but the environment always leaves me frazzled.

Vanderbilt has room for another nice coffee place, and hopefully this one will be more peaceful.

if it is the same place i'm thinking of, i don't remember too much (if any) seating. i'll have to pay more attention tomorrow.

Then its a wash. I can't sit at Joyce; I can't sit at this place. I might as well make coffee at home.

Just went there for some coffee and a croissant. Coffee is from Gille's baked goods from Choice in Fort Greene. All good. Spoke to Alex who's running the cafe and they have Hale and Hearty soups, smoothies and fresh juices.

I hope they do well. Nice to have other cafe alternatives nearby.
