new favorite cafe in nyc ☕️

I’ve been wanting to try this design focused cafe for a while now and finally got around to it!

Located in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, it’s a bit out of the way from anything but I was so delighted that I went.

All the coffee looked amazing (I had a chai latte) and the baristas and staff were so friendly. I love that there are no traditional chairs and tables like you would find in most coffee shops. Instead, the entire area is designed as if you are in someone’s design studio or artistic home, with couches, large round tables, and various communal areas.

Although the ceilings are expansive and there’s so much natural light from the oversized windows, it is quite a smaller space. Definitely something to keep in mind if you are going on the weekends becuase it might be hard to get a space to sit if it gets too busy.

I plan on going back and bringing my laptop for some productive work next time and enjoying the tasteful aesthetic and vibes.

📍 Rhythm Zero (Greenpoint)
