Kaleidoscope Coffee

Cozy local coffee shop with a relaxed vibe. Service is friendly. The flat white was good but wished the coffee was a bit stronger is taste. There's some seating to chat or work.

Came here with my wife for coffee. Good atmosphere and service but was advise that there would be an extra charge for having the ice coffee order with "light ice". When confused by this statement, was told since there's more product in the order. As native new yorkers, it's the first time we've heard there's a charge for "light ice". Ofc the coffee shop can set rules at their discretion, our view is that the cost savings from extra few oz of coffee doesn't outweigh returning customers. Won't be visiting again due to this.

Love this coffee shop! The owners are super nice and the coffee here has been very consistent in my experience. I appreciate that they offer macadamia milk as one of their non-dairy milk options. They also offer some Sweetleaf drinks like Rocket Fuel. Bathroom is cute and always very clean, and they have a walk up window in addition to their indoor counter so it’s a great option if you want to grab a coffee while you’re walking your dog.

Cozy and straightforward spot for coffee. Sat down for a late morning tea and did some personal work on my laptop. Very peaceful vibes and the staff was super friendly. There is wifi and a restroom.

Fantastic and solid coffee! Really enjoyed the oat milk latte and especially the rocket fuel which is a special drink made of condensed cold brew, chicory, and a bit of maple syrup. The rocket fuel was a refreshing drink and had a nice subtle smokey taste and not sweet surprisingly despite having maple syrup. What makes this cafe stand out from most coffee shops in the city is how cozy and welcoming the setting is. The interior and the background music make reading, working or hanging out with friends pleasant and possible. The seating options are particularly designed to be comfortable. We spoke to the owner who designed and built everything which is so impressive! One could really tell the attention to detail she put in from every lamp choice to even the tiles and wallpaper in the bathroom. Definitely returning when around the neighborhood!!

Cute little cafe with an amazing service. Latte is strong and taste great. I like the fact that everything that can be, is sustainable . This is the kind of place that truly becomes one favorite coffee spot because of the service provided. You see that by the interactions that happen inside between the customers and barista.

Love this place and supporting it, but if you buy a cold brew and leave $1 tip… you’ve spent $9 here which is insane. Just get espresso drinks. Cold brews good but whoa.

Barista was very friendly and helpful. It's a nice and cozy coffee shop with a couple of seats inside. I tried their maple latte and it was really good! One of my faves so far! $5.75 and they use coffee beans from sweet leaf and they have a shelf of their sweeteners on the wall. They also play some music and they have WiFi as well!

We've started doing this thing I like to call "Java jaunts"... where we walk unnecessarily far to find a new coffee shop to try. This time we ended up in Greenpoint and in our Yelp research found Kaleidescope! I was intrigued by the few reviews (love to try the newest spots to show my support!), but what really piqued my interest was rocket fuel. What is it? What did it taste like? I had to know. Kaleidoscope has two places you can order from - a little kiosk if you have a stroller/dog, and a few smaller tables and seats inside if you're looking to sit with a friend to enjoy your coffee. The person working there was SO friendly and walked us through all of the specialty drinks they have in addition to the standard ones. My partner and I chose to get a rocket fuel and cold brew - the cold brew was strong but not too acidic. The rocket fuel lived up to the name.. I was wired afterwards! It was delicious, and I'd definitely recommend.

Great coffee, friendly barrister, very cozy interior with a few nooks. Was planning to just get coffee and go, but ended up staying for a bit for ambiance.

I recently stumbled upon Kaleidoscope Coffee and I have been coming back almost every day since my first visit last week. This place has become my new favorite coffee spot in Brooklyn! Coffee is delicious and staff is v friendly!! If you're in Brooklyn and looking for a new coffee spot, I highly recommend checking this place out. It's a gem that deserves a five-star rating!

A fantastic coffee shop in Greenpoint! The coffee is excellent and is locally roasted from Sweetleaf. The decor is cozy, well designed, and a great place to work with both free WiFi and seating. The owners are super friendly too! My daily go-to in the morning for cold brew. Definitely try the iced teas as well!

Kaleidoscope has the best espresso I've had in NYC. I got back from a few weeks in Italy last year looking for great espresso and tried many bougie places in Manhattan that were just bland or burnt. This place has delicious tart espresso you can drink straight. They also bake fresh pastries, one of the best choc croissants I've had plus they sell one filled with apricot jam that's so good. Their other drinks are amazing too, cold brews, cold raspberry tea, they make the perfect balance of mocha, pumpkin spice, etc with espresso you can still taste (they made me a pumpkin spice cortado, my fav). The baristas are the owners and they have lovely personalities, a neighborhood feel. Also the space inside is a major vibe, cozy nooks, a ton of real plants, and fun decor including even the bathroom wallpaper! OH and a final note, everything is sustainable including their straws which are made of agave (!) and not those crappy paper straws.

This place is so cute, and the drinks are SO good! I already have a list of like four different things I want to get next time! Guess I better start planning!

I decided to give this place a try since it's one block away from my work and I'm so glad I did. This is by far my favorite place to get a coffee now. I also really love that I'm able to order from the window and not have to go inside. The people working there are so lovely too. I'm happy this place exist.

A great little coffee shop with excellent coffee and delicious pastry. Cozy and homey atmosphere. Sit and stay awhile, they have WiFi and a book collection too!

such a lovely and welcoming shop. delicious coffee and relaxing vibes. guests are welcomed with a smile. they truly go above and beyond.
