Dear God, what did I do to deserve Burly?
This place is downright adorable and perfect. Bed Stuy can be a hard place to find a decent Almond Milk latte... but Burly has solved all of my problems and made my mornings a cake walk.
I honestly come here every. damn. morning. (Okay, I lied.) But I come here almost every morning. The staff is adorable, so approachable and we have the sickest conversations. The atmosphere is quiet, inviting and looks great for an Instagram picture. They have local art on the walls and fun wood paneled walls.
They also have Dough donuts because they actually care about you. They also have these really amazing, like, gourmet pop tarts or something? I'm not really sure, but I've spoiled my diet plenty of times for them.
I'm a huge connoisseur of coffee. Well, actually, I just like coffee a lot. Can't say I know that much about it. Maybe I'll put that on my bucket list for 2017... learn more about coffee... but I do know that I really enjoy the espresso at Burly. The espresso drinks here are my reward to myself when I finally sit my ass down and write a few pages or if I mop my apartment or if I do anything less than extraordinary but worthy of a treat.
They recently started carrying oat milk as well, which is like almond milk, but with oats. Who knew?
My one criticism is I have to walk a few blocks to get there and sometimes I feel like being a lazy piece of shit. If Burly could figure out a way to just run an IV drip along Throop avenue to Willoughby, maybe they would be the most perfect spot in Brooklyn. Who am I kidding? It already is.
Can you tell I love this place? Thank you Burly!
