If I could give this cafe negative stars, I would. I came across this space due to it being open later than other cafes & fairly reasonable prices. Size is quite large & seemingly a good place to do some reading & writing. The first time was fine, just grabbed a tea. Second time grabbed a cookie. Today, I just attempted to complete a 3rd visit only for the rude man behind the register to come to my table asking if "I wanted anything & I hadn't bought anything". This only after 2 minutes of me sitting down, attempting to wait out the crowd formed at the register. I then told him that I will come up only for him to rudely spat, "You only bought a cookie last time". I've never experienced anything like this. Beyond the fact that I'm being surveilled & pressured to buy things I do not want, the service is not great, cleanliness is not of standard & staff is not welcoming. A woman sitting next to me also witnessed what occurred and was very disturbed by that behavior. We both cut our visits short. No customer should ever have to deal with hostile environments created by business owners. This is a terribly ran business.

I often get my bike repaired next door at Larry's Freewheeling. Always see a crowd in this cafe, and finally check it out after a decade. It was my first AND last time. Service was mid; took a long time with zero sense of urgency. The coffee tastes burnt and bitter - I didn't finish the iced latte. The bagel was incredibly sad for an NYC bagel, and lacked an NYC amount of schmear.
I'm glad I tried it! I just won't be going back. If you're looking for coffee nearby - highly recommendimg Superhet Coffee!!

I’ve been a loyal patron of Amrita Cafe for over eight years, and it never disappoints! The atmosphere is consistently pleasant, with a delightful mix of classical music, jazz, and even some modern pop or hip-hop. The staff, especially the cashiers, are always friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home.
The culinary highlights are truly remarkable. The chef’s skills shine through in my go-to order: the bacon, egg, and cheese on a croissant. It's always delicious! And I can't forget to mention the cappuccino—it's consistently on point and has become a bit of an obsession for me. The fresh cookies are a must-try, with the chocolate chip cookie reigning supreme, closely followed by the oatmeal cookie.
Conveniently located on 110th St. by Central Park, Amrita Cafe is perfect whether you're looking to enjoy breakfast or lunch inside or take your drink outside to soak in the park's beauty. It’s truly the perfect little café for the area! Highly recommended!

I've heard of this place for lunch, unfortunately all I did was to have a coffee and brownie and were very yummy. Def will liek to come back and give a try to the food. The only thing is that when I was there, most tables and chairs had food crumbs. The staff saw me cleaning and changing tables and didn't bother to come clean. Other than that it was ok. A 3 overall start rating beacuse I did not have a full experience. Once I get ill adjust accordingly.
