Chocolatte Espresso Bar

I had to wait over 30 minutes for 2 sandwiches And I didn’t even get what I wanted, I ordered a goat cheese sandwich, and it was meant to come with eggplant. There was no eggplant inside and there was an Extreme amount of pesto and cheese inside I am very disappointed with this service

My little sister is in New York on her own with an organization. She is young and with a group of friends. She is calling me at 10:45pm across the country asking me to find her credit card statement to prove to the man that she already paid for the hot chocolate. It takes a minute for that to appear and she had to leave. She paid for the hot chocolate and the man working at the counter (who was smoking) never gave it to her. She walked out with no hot chocolate after paying for it. This is disgusting service to a teenager to make her prove that she paid when it is your disorganization and lack of good technology to keep track of it. I am beyond upset for her, all her friends got hot chocolate but her. FYI, the statement went through and she did pay for it.

They have an extensive menu and everything is freshly prepare on the spot! Fresh Patisseries are all baked the same day! Great selection of drink overall it’s a big Yes! 6/5! Only reason why not a 7/5 * is because the coffee beans are not freshly roasted however most American won’t even notice it with all the extra toping and sugar they’ll add to it.. great job Chocolatte, you are one of a kind! ma cosa vuoi di meglio? Un espresso? Vai a Milano, nient'altro! 😘

Atmosphere here was horrible. The person that was working behind the counter had friends there and his friend was shouting out to him “I am homeless I want a free milkshake, I am homeless and illegal I want two free milkshakes”. This group of men were loud and unruly putting their middle fingers up and taking pictures on their phone creating a very uneasy environment. This was our second time here the first time was great. We will not be back after this experience! This was a very unpleasant experience for both me and my fiancé.

amazing Panini they had I really recommend it! the Americano is made perfectly and the cappuccinos are amazing! but it took at least 15-20 min for the Panini to be ready and 10 minutes for the cappuccino. the cashier seemed not interested in helping customers. if you want to survive while you are there just come with a good vibe. also, the people there don't behave the way they should across the street from the rebbes shul.

The place is nice and clean, but the service is inconsistent - the employees sometimes don't understand Hebrew, or speak broken English because they are Spanish. Drinks: The barista is terrible and clearly doesn't know how to make coffee/operate the machine easily. You can hear him burning the milk, etc. It's better to order a drink that is difficult to ruin, like something with ice On the other hand, the pastries are pretty okay You have to ask to warm the cookies yourself This is just my opinion.

It’s alright . Variety of sweet stuff . Little expensive .

I love that they are open 24hrs. I eat here all the time and especially come here for the coffee and the sweets

Nice little place, just around the corner from the 770. I bought some coffee beans to take home, plus a couple of kipahs. Nice atmosphere, great staff. They helped me pick the right roast for my tastes (I am particular when it comes to my coffee!) My only regret is that I didn't have more time to sit and enjoy a cup of their coffee. Next time! There's lots of coffee roasters in NY (duh!). If you haven't tried Chocolatte yet, it's worth the trip to Crown Heights.

Great selection of food items along with a huge drink menu. The service is always friendly and quick. In my top 3 of coffee shops when in Brooklyn.

I found this place through a quick search looking for good hot chocolate spot. The hot chocolate was fine. The coffee was fine too. We really enjoyed the baked goods especially the donuts. The service behind the counter was lovely. Very welcoming. But to be honest we probably would have gone somewhere else if we had seen the back area first. The seating area was absolutely filthy. Someone needs to periodically check to ensure that it is a space where people can enjoy their purchases.

They stay there open in 24 hours, but I am currently still waiting 20 minutes and counting for an iced coffee. The doors are locked. If you're not 24 hours, close the online. This is ridiculous. And, they don't even have a valid phone number.

Great drinks, kind staff, distinct vibe as the signature cafe next to 770. can get quite busy at times

I wish I read reviews of this place before walking in... I was working in the area and was craving a bagel and cream cheese. It was about 10am when I walked in with my coworker. I ordered a bagel and cream cheese and some type of pastry with mushroom filling. I had high expectations of Chocolatte and the shop was adorable. I waited and waited... waited some more after paying. The guy behind the counter tells me they ran out of bagels. It's 10am and I've been waiting for 15 mins for you to toast a bagel and spread cream cheese on it. He asks if he could substitute it with the house baguette. I said sure! At this point I'm starving and angry. The guy taking my order should've known if they ran out of ingredients. Actually the shop is tiny, every staff should've known. Baguette with cream cheese: Poorly made and where's the cream cheese??? That is not a schmear. I gave half to my coworker and I'm not sure what she did with it. Mushroom pastry: Pastry was flaky, but the mushroom filling was super salty. The pastry was cold too. I wish I walked a bit further down the block because other bakeries were filled with customers and bagels lined the windows.

Meh. Overpriced and my mango smoothie is like a pound of barely chopped up bananas with one slice of mango in it. Like a crappy banana cream pie eaten thru a straw and a piece of mango accidentally got into the pie dish...minus the whipped cream. B/C whipped cream may not be kosher. Because I paid $8 for a smoothie now I can't throw it away. I'm gonna go home and throw it in my Vitamix and fix it.

The customer service is great. You will always find a friendly barista at Chocolatte. The food is amazing. The coffee is the best in Crown Heights. But if you order food make sure to tell them you want salt and pepper (if you want it) because on certain things they don't add it because some people don't want it. The great thing about this place is you can custom order things the way you like them. So for example today I ordered my caesar salad with no croutons light dressing and with avocado on top.

I ordered food from here via the Yelp App and I received the complete order wrong. Each time I walk in they are clueless to my order. The strangest thing.

This is an accessible, pleasant coffee shop located inside the Jewish Children's Museum (and in the heart of the Jewish community of Crown Heights). The space is bright and airy, decorated with Illy products and clocks showing the time in various cities around the world (Jerusalem, Milan, Paris, Rio...), a flatscreen showing nothing but nature scenes, and Hebrew pop music playing over the soundsystem. They have every coffee drink anyone could ever want, and I appreciated the fresh mint they added to my tea. I have yet to try the more substantial food options (sandwiches, salads, etc.), but I can report that they have plenty of decent snacks available (pastries, Kind Bars, Naked Juices, and more). $3.75 is bit steep for a plain croissant, but perhaps kosher croissants cost more. I don't really know. Chocolatte also boasts free wi-fi, but there is limited (but comfortable) seating and the counter is a bit higher than ideal for laptopping. Although, I can't blame them if it's purposeful, and they don't want the likes of me sitting there all day long.

Ordered from them a couple of time while I lived in Brooklyn. Their desserts tasted significantly like rotten eggs and their drinks really weren't worth the price.

This review is just for the employees and the coffee. I visited a couple of times while visiting family nearby. It is conveniently located off of Eastern Parkway which is perfect for morning/afternoon walks. The staff was nice and patient when we were looking at the menu. Their iced coffee was good and did the job. Coffee service was quick and efficient. Their baked goods case looked incredible and their chocolate selection is very unique. I unfortunately didn't get to indulge on that front, though. I'd definitely come back when I'm back in the area.

Where do I even start? First off, I tried to call the store to make an order. However, the guy on the phone, for whatever apparent reason, did not want to take my order, told me to order online, and then hung up on me. I went on their website, but it was glitchy on my phone, so I ended up walking to the store. When I got there, there were people in the store giving me rude stares and talking about me.. Why, because I was not Jewish and I had red hair and tattoos? A great way to feel welcome. Great customer service. So I gave my order, and waited awkwardly in the store. I took my order and left. When I had gotten home, I looked at the order, and they had given me rotten avocados and old olives. They had also given me two eggs, instead of the three that was specified online, and those two eggs were not even cooked properly. If you are not Jewish, don't even bother coming to the store because they will give you horrible customer service and give you the left overs that they wouldn't give to somebody that was Jewish. I wasted $16 at this store. Thanks, no thanks.

If I could give this place a negative star I would. Where to begin? While banking on the appeal of adorable overpriced printed cups is a noteworthy tactic to apply in image-obsessed, millenial Brooklyn, it is no excuse for selling poorly-made, overpriced food and then outright lying about it on your menu. If you order from them on GRuB Hub, here is what you can expect: Item: Cream cheese and smoked salmon sandwich. NOwhere on the menu do they mention this sandwich gets HOT-PRESSED. Because that is nonsensical. Cooked smoked salmon? Wilted lettuce? Warm cream cheese? Soggy tomato? Mmmmm! Sounds delicious! If they were forthcoming about that detail on their menu, perhaps more people could avoid such blatant faux pas instead of receiving an inedible sandwich. So, let's say you want to try something less complicated? Surely, not even a half-rate coffee bar could possibly ruin simple bread, butter and jam? Wrong again. Their "B+B" bread with butter and jam, naturally, arrives sans jam (because we don't serve what we advertise) and the bread is, again, hot pressed and soaked in old, melted butter that smells like bad cheese. Ok, ok. This place is clearly not known for getting things right and maybe it is just me? So picky about the hot press. But no preparation is involved in a pre-made muffin order, right? I am sure they have tasty chocolate chip muffins. Maybe they were sold out that morning? Nice to not let the customer know in advance (like most places, standard practice) so they could substitute a different item or nix it from the order. But nah, they decide to go ahead and waste a perfectly good double-chocolate muffin on the assumption that it is the same thing. Um, no. And all these errors are your fault for ordering because the store will refuse even a partial refund. Don't order from here with the expectation you will get what is advertised. Be ready to throw your money in the waste basket. They will not even own up to their error and offer partial refund. Sorry, but I am not a Brooklyn trust fund baby, I don't have thirty bucks to waste on poor business practices. The coffee, however, was fine. Stick to that.

The two stars are for service. The guys who work here are generally friendly and pleasant to deal with and they keep the lines moving. The lack of stars is for the food. I work locally and have tried a number of things here out of convenience and there's not one thing I would go back for. Most, I didn't even finish. The sandwich combinations are bland. I love the idea of picking your sandwich and having it grilled, but the resulting sandwich tastes a lot more like it's been microwaved than grilled/toasted. It gets that hard texture that things get when they've been microwaved too long, and that soggy feel. Not good. I'm not into coffee, but I've tried the hot chocolate, the limonana, and the berry smoothie - none of which hit the spot. The smoothie was tasteless, the hot chocolate tasted like warm milk with no flavor and the limonana was far too sweet.

I never had sachlav before visiting this place and I wouldn't mind having it every day now! This place is truly unique and a gem. I hope to visit again in the future.

Cappuccino tasted watery/weak. Deserts are an A+ Sandwiches/Salads visually very appealing( quite expensive though).

I chose to visit Chocolatte on Thanksgiving morning prior to making a long train trip to far western New Jersey. It has a very convenient location next to the Kingston Avenue subway station. I was fascinated by the vibrancy of the bustling Jewish community as opposed to my homogeneous South Florida suburban neighborhood. I found the staff to be quite friendly and I didn't feel any discrimination because I'm not Jewish. We just had coffee and it was quite good. I liked being able to order an espresso shot to add to it. I thought the seating inside was too cramped so we opted for a sidewalk table. Although it was cold out (by my Miami standards) the entertaining "street theater" more than made up for it. I'll be trying this place again on my next visit.

Upon walking in, there's a floating cloud of unwelcomeness. After asking a couple employees behind the counter nobody wanted to take my order, also no line in front of me. Through waiting for my sandwich I had to remind them I ordered the sandwich 3 times. 30 minutes later received the sandwich. I don't know what could have saved the limp, dispiriting breakfast sandwich, but it definitely wasn't a lukewarm coffee as murky and appealing as bong water. The silver metal/white stone aesthetic is a good sight; feeling clean with good sanitation rating. But is that enough? Is Chocolatte worth the time and money? In and of itself, no.

Excellent place to have a Latte, coffee, green salad, sandwich and milkshake, Starbucks kosher style. Located in the Jewish Children's Museum building and have additional seating outside.

Warm welcoming environment, nice staff who always remember which drink I like. :) it's very clean and there are tons of options of food, drink for different dietary needs.

OMG, Chocolatte was actually fantastic. The location is unbeatable. Each and every single thing that we have ordered was really fresh and flavorful. Team is really courteous and will certainly help you with anything. We will definitely come back to Chocolatte.

my favorite store in Crown Heights, the place to go if you can't compromise on the quality of your coffee, it is located right next to the Kingston Ave Subway, so i stop every morning on the way to Manhattan, never fails. P.S you should really try the Bourekas pastry.

This place gave me so much love and patience while I was living in Brownsville. The food is actually really good and all kosher but most of all the coffee is just incredible and the location is perfect. The staff are some of the nicest people I've ever met and are so understanding with customers (I would go in and buy one large iced mocha with two extra shots of espresso and then work on my laptop for a bit.) There is internet and it is open 24hrs. Sometimes it can get super packed up but even then it's worth the line and they get through heavy rushes pretty fast honestly. Plus it gets packed for a reason, it's the best. I can't have dairy anymore but they actually have a load of dairy free options for drinks and food and overall it's just a very thoughtful place. If you want to try some of the best coffees/teas/chai lattes in all of New York, head over to their crown heights or Coney Island locations and you will NOT be disappointed. I've probably had a couple hundred drinks from there in the past but y'all ready know when I make it to New York next, Chocolatte is my first stop

Amazing 24 hours place so much fun Saturday night live music food is so fresh coolest stuff in ny Seating in the back.

ZERO stars Terrible pastries!!!! I purchased atleast 4 different types. They were all hard and stale. Took a bite of each and threw them straight in the garbage!! WASTE of $$. You are better off going to a starbucks for pastries and coffee! The place is also dirty. Skip this place!!

I went here with a girlfriend of mine late at night and the other customers stared at us like we had fifteen heads. That being said, the employees are so nice. Their sachlav is pretty magical, although I wish it had nuts sprinkled on top. Do you like it when things taste like flowers? Roses and orange blossom lace this thick milky pudding. It's served in a cup, it's not exactly spoonable. More drinkable. Their mochas are incredible. Their food is yummy. The croissant breakfast sandwich comes with a little container of pesto. Absolutely yummy. Just because sometimes it's filled with people that look like they want to spit on you, don't worry. It's not the business itself behaving that way. You can order online through yelpeats and pick it up.

Very yummy coffee and chocolate cake. And the young girl behind the counter had a nice smile.

Coffee is quick and service is good. Prices are a little high but they are very consistent so I don't mind. Order included an iced and hot vanilla or hazelnut latte. If they have an original chocolate croissant it's worth a try.

Cute hipster place with good coffee and salads. Love the look Will come back next time I'm in New York

Line is crazy long . Spent like 25 Minutes to get this damn coffee . Environment pretty good, nice and welcoming . On the Jewish new year or whatever it is holiday hard to get inside. Religious people mostly from Israel very nice and kind , but it's hard to move them away from the entry. Cause they don't know what is that word -"excuse me" so if you have this problem just say -"s'leexa" as much loud as u can. Also store doesn't have a restroom . But you can go to synagogue in front .

The chocolate coffee is a must. The owner was very attentive & allowed is to ask many questions regarding the community. It's small, but a perfect stop for the best chocolate I've ever had!

Good environment quite pricey but open 24h 6days a week worth trying or maybe not im not sure

I had a ice mocha latte, and that crap was nasty! sorry, but I do feel customer service is important as well, because a smile can possibly brighten a person's day. But they probably they weren't as cool 'cause I'm not Jewish and stuff. Lol

I visited the place the first time yesterday 1. The service is very slow 2. I had to ask to have a table cleaned numerous 3. Overpriced 4. The food isn't anything that good 6. When served finally, no napkin given , not available at the tables I wouldn't go there again

Best iced mocha in NYC. And I am a die hard Starbucks person, but this beats Starbucks on any day. Wish they had more locations. The cutest and most adorable coffee sleeves. They also have pastries and yummy wraps. Seating is limited, but hey, in this neighborhood prime real estate goes fast. Very nice and friendly customer service. Also, very clean and modern decor, almost swanky for a kosher coffee shop. I am a big fan!!

Chocolatte is such a gem and the perfect place for a coffee, pastry, or sandwich pit stop. Eat it now, eat it later, just get a little bit of everything and you will enjoy it all. The prices are reasonable and service is wonderful!! Chocolate croissants melt in your mouth, decadent lattes will warm your soul. If you're lucky enough you may catch some wonderful live music playing and are sure to have a great time any time as Chocolatte is open 24/7!

This is a awesome little coffee place that you go to, when you're in the mood of grabbing a coffee and pastry or sit down for a quick breakfast with friend, family etc. I was there one morning with my family and although there is not much seating, including the seating by the front window and the seating in the back by the museum, we still managed to get ourselves seated and had a real nice time. The place has a nice décor and the staff is as helpful and friendly as it gets. The food and drinks (Breakfast/Brunch style) are absolutely delicious (Although not the cheapest) and there is free Wi-Fi! Bottom line: I'm a great fan of this place and look forward to go there again.

I come here pretty regularly, as it is the only place with iced coffee near me. I keep it pretty simple, mostly black coffee, but they offer a lot of options! What keeps me coming back other than the coffee is Rose, an employee who is there almost every day. Rose is very kind, and very speedy at making coffees. I know when she's there, I'll be taken care of well!

the staff is super friendly! the food is great... very much a fusion of american european israelian!? ok maybe I made up that last word but i was told that this place is way better than starbucks... i must agree! (and i am a die hard starbucks fan) 24 hrs, affordable, bright, friendly, and yummy! i ordered the sachlav (warm rose milk latte drink) and the special jerusalem potato boureka! savory and sweet overtake my taste buds!

If you're going to advertise that you're store is open 24 hours....then stay open 24 hours. Or update your f*ing hours online. I walked there at 7 am in the rain to get coffee and of course it's closed.

Great little cafe. The coffee and espresso is good and they also have a hazelnut latte that is just a delicious hot drink to have when you don't want caffeine. I recommend trying the goat cheese sandwich or the quinoa salad.

A life saving place, I'd say. Very friendly and trilingual (spanish, hebrew, english), at least. Always open, very useful and just outside the Kingston station. Was indeed a lifesaver during the two weeks we spent in Brooklyn.

Never comes or cancels without calling you. I work in a busy ER at night and this is the third time they've been no sjows. Never again.

This a small but very nice kosher coffee shop in Brooklyn. It's in a Jewish neighborhood but we were treated just like any other customer. The food and drinks were well prepared and it all tasted great. I even bought a hat and a sticker because their logo is pretty cool!

Great coffee, alright but overpriced food, and the baristas will insult you in Hebrew if they think you can't understand. As my grandmother would say "Zeyt nisht ein shanda fur die goyim."

Good place to get some work or study done, They have little surface to put a laptop and your notebooks its very nice since it's 24 hours too.

Great neighborhood spot for my usual chai latte and some wifi. I wish they had more selections for pastries, but what I have had so far has been delicious! This place has cute decor, and I love that everything is kosher. I will definitely be back often.

Coffee and service is good. The baked goods are a bit overpriced. The seating isn't great. But open 24 hours. Their wraps are great. They have Wi-Fi, actually the only shop that has wifi in the area. Overall decent place. Slightly expensive.
