In Short – A rotating display of funky local artwork decks the walls at this cozy Carroll Gardens coffee shop. Students, artists, and young parents with their tots in tow linger all day on the mismatched couches and chairs--the place closes way too early to lure a late-night crowd. Behind a small counter that's piled with baked goods, laid-back servers leisurely prepare coffee, tea, and light fare, like breakfast burritos, bagels, oatmeal, chicken chili, and open-faced brie and apple sandwiches.

They let you nurse....

They don't rush you & they have wi-fi.

Easy on your wallet
by tworuth
This is a neighborhood joint in the best sense of that word. Breakfast food and a few sandwiches. Coffee, Tea, Iced but not two hundred ways to drink a cup. I don't drink coffee so I can't judge that but if you want a friendly place to take a time out- read - people watch and enjoy a bagle, pastry or sandwitch this is a great place with liberal politics and nop pretensions.
- Pros: inexpensive, funky, good reading material
- Cons: lots of toddlers, lack of seats

Smith Street's Own Living Room
by jessicabranch_citysearch
This is an amiable little place -- service is very lowkey, and the chairs and sofas scattered around seat locals who look like they've just come out to enjoy someone else's coffee instead of making their own. Which is a nice switch from the hordes of Manhattanites out to explore the new "destination" row. The atmosphere's a bit grungy, yes, but the music and the coffee are good.
The Details on Fall Cafe
Know Before You Go:
This isn't the best place for a late dinner--the tiny kitchen tends to run out of supplies before the shop closes.
What to Drink:
The selection of Yogi teas behind the counter claim to cure whatever ails you, from sore throats to upset stomachs.
