Friends & Family

Amazing pasteries and coffee. Brunch menu has a large variety of dishes and everything we had was absolutely delicious. All the flavors were exciting and well balanced. All tastes very fresh. This place delivers on flavors. I could compare it with a place like Tartine in San Francisco but I actually think Friends & Family is better. They also have ice cream and make bagels in house. Coffee from Counter Culture. Service was nice. You order at counter and they bring it to your table.

they have a wonderful and unique and VERY VERY fresh selection of
homemade pastry and bread and I'm about to rush out to buy someting called Chocolate coffee loaf. I MUST ALSO ADD they are NOW OPEN
for dinner and the MENU seems enticing, although it is NOT cheap.
But then nothing first rate is anymore. I want to try a variety
of items, which are served for dinner which start at 5;30!! The
place has become VERY popular for coffee and pastries so
I can only add my kudos to what is offered, first rate selection.

This place is super bougie, and overpriced. I payed 20 bucks plus for a very mediocre bagel with very bad lox. It's frustrating cause it's the kinda meal you can get from a Bodega in NYC for 7 bucks. Just really overpriced and very mediocre food. They should spend less on the chairs more on the food. The wait staff was great though.

I'm not coming back anytime soon. Bolt, Cafe 101, and a few other places are much better on the same neighborhood.

Not much of a hidden gem at this point. Top notch pastries (esp. the laminated ones like croissants). Breads are amazing too. Get there early though as they sell out regularly!

Absolutely delicious. The baked goods are to die for. The ginger scone is absolute joy. Perfectly buttery, light yet dense, with candied ginger dotted throughout, topped with crunchy sugar. Croissants are perfectly flaky in all of its stuffed and plain forms. Spelt blueberry muffin in perfectly sweet and fruity without being a sugar overload. Staff is efficient and friendly. This has become my once a week stop for coffee and pastry and I couldn’t be happier.

Incredible food, service, and ambiance. The pastries are a standout, even in an area of town filled with great pastries from a variety of cultures and baking disciplines. The California Cherry salad with Speck and Burrata was absolutely wonderful. I'm really glad there is a new destination breakfast spot in Thai Town.

Over-hyped, from my experience. Really cold service on a Sunday morning, with only cold fried chicken, straight from the fridge, sub-par health food, and fly-ridden pastries for my troubles. The Baked Buckwheat Pancakes were good, but not enough to make me want to come back. The prices are up there for what you get, and the parking situation is horrendous any day of the week.

They have tasty bread and pastries, and awesome food if your going for that kinda breakfast (the kinds that isn't grab and go)

UPDATE: OK, the food is undeniably good! Still bad experience though. They need to try harder

Unbelievable bad service. Two busboys saw us standing over the only available table for 4 (which was dirty), and proceeded to clean up every other table in the room except ours. I had to grab napkins and clean the table myself for our party. Everyone working here looks like they hate their lives and if course the customers... No food is worth the humiliation and effort. Shame

Dan the owner is outstanding. Diego serves coffee with a smile. I'm a big fan of their salads, sandwiches and pastries. I also love their bread. This place is worth checking out for coffee and a something to eat. A neighborhood recommend with a family feel.
