A quiet hipster coffee shop, it is located in no other place than Williamsburg of course. The antique rusty decor matches with its simple motto: "we strive to serve good coffee". No, there is no motto. I simply paraphrased what the barista snobbishly said to me as I asked if any of their drinks were "sweet". He replied "I'll be honest with you, you came to the wrong coffee shop". Indeed, it is no Starbucks and thank god for that. Although I was insulted, being a former barista of a reputable coffee chain myself, I soon realized the fine barista quite lived up to his attitude with likely the most balanced and rich tasting Americano I've had since coming to Brooklyn. Likewise, Val's Macchiato is not some cheap imitation coffee drinks either. If only I lived in Williamsburg.
