Cute place. Seating inside and out. First time here and enjoyed my meal. Little busy as it was lunch time and didn't have to wait long to get my order.
Yummy green smoothie and plantain patties that are made in-house. Service was swift for take out orders. It may be too hot for the summer as they only have fans indoors. Interiors are well-designed.
I don't live in the neighborhood but every so often one of my regular clients hits me up and BKLYN Blend happened to be nearby so I am very glad I stopped in. Client facing staff is beyond professional and affable. The young woman at the counter today deftly handled an unfortunate situation where a man was being less the charitable and kind to his girlfriend. The young man working the smoothie bar was even asked by who appeared to be a regular what the 'usual' fruit he puts in her smoothie was and the chef cooly came out to ensure service was running smoothly. Looking around I was thinking everyone employed here seemed not only happy to be at work, but also overqualified. That's a sign of a great team and in turn a great boss. The place is very well kept, clean and welcoming with lots of plants, comfortable seating and a decent bar area. You can tell the owners care about aesthetics and their patron's comfort. It's in a great corner spot and both gets a lot of light but provides shade in certain parts of the cafe. If you go, do yourself a favor and try the Brooklyn Ru-blend and the Kyoto Cherry Rose Tea with a splash of milk. The sandwich came out warm, crunchy and not as oily as most Ruben's do, with a satisfying chew and a fragrant hint of spices, likely from the turmeric bread. The tea was smooth, silky and surprisingly sweet, though that could have been the lactose, and was very satisfying. Some of the reviews mentioned the wait time and would say that good things are worth waiting for. My only regret is I cannot come back here as often as I'd like to try the rest of the delicious items on the menu. I've got my eyes on that Salmon pattie and the Brownsville Nut BKLYN Blend is a great example of when passion meets entrepreneurship and is exactly the kind of business that will get passed down for many generations.
Amazing food amazing staff. I never knew such a place existed in my neighborhood. My friend and I went back the next day. And we agrees this is now our coffee shop. It is so cozy in there. They have thr best juices and smoothies.
Great place to get work done. It’s very lively but tight seating indoors. There’s outdoor seating available and free WiFi is a plus
