Iced mocha and almond croissant were both tastypretty spacious cafe for reading, working, relaxing. 2 hr time limit on wifi,, they just encourage you to buy something to support the cafe which i think is pretty fair

Great vibes to get work done or chat with a friend. They have backyard outdoor seating for when the weather is nice.The house blend drip was very smooth with mainly tangy notes.

Best coffee shop in the area. Nice amount of seating, staff are great and the prices are reasonable for the area. The cortado was an 8.2 - nicely balanced without any noticeable negatives.

Good place to stay for those who is looking a work space woth their own devices. A quiet music on background is calm and relaxing. I took a cappuccino with oat milk and it was really good. Almond croissant is big and has enough almond paste to stay with the name almond. It seems that the owner did not put a lot of money into renovation. However it makes the atmospheric and cozy environment. Friendly staff. Good choice of drinks.

Came here for tea a few times, and once to study. There's a lot of seating lining the wall where the ordering counter is and a small room in the back with some tables and outlets. There's also a bathroom. Great place for the neigborhood to be able to post up and get some work done. Really like the vibe of this place. Service was nice. The tea was pretty good, too, although not something that you can mess up (it's all tea bags). Will come back for their coffee, of course, but until then take this good review to represent the functionality they serve for the neighborhood. They also have some pastries and a pretty extensive tea menu as well as a non-caffeinated menu so it really is solving all your cafe needs, which is hard to find nowadays.

My go-to coffee shop in Greenpoint! The baristas are all so lovely and the cozy vibes make it easy to comfortably spend your time in the space.

Have lived here for over ten yrs; have never had a problem ordering coffee while walking my dog. But they wouldn’t allow me to even order and wait outside with the dog. Came back to see if the coffee was worth it and it’s definitely not.

The service is commendable, but the hot chocolate is disappointing – it lacks natural flavor and tastes artificial.
Overpriced SMALL drinks, great almond crossaints and could not focus on enjoying my book with the loud club music blaring over the speakers. The workers can’t even speak at a normal volume and have to shout to talk to each other over the music. This is not a cafe. Don’t come here to get some peace in reading a book or getting work done. No flavored syrups available and the most dry greeting. 2 stars for the delicious almond crossaint.

It’s a bit pricy but nothing outrageous for the area it’s in. The carrot cake muffin is really good!

Decaf Cappuccino tastes great, though I was hoping it was in a mug since I dine in. Music, light, and tables are cozy and pretty much spread out to avoid congestion. However, I do want to notify that customers can't use their bathroom, I know it's a way to control people staying for too long(especially for work) but it indeed kind of frustrating.

My Cafe Report X.
You start outside. You always start outside. Start out across the street, on the west side of Manhattan ave, a street that courses through Greenpoint. Its cerulean store sign might catch your eye, but its name 'odd fox' might not, it's printed in such a faded, almost careless black. Still, the quaint result might be enough to intrigue you. The street is also probably empty enough to jay walk across, so you might, which you might do, the dream is unbroken. The café has a railroad layout. The larger front room is divided like a paper folded hotdog style. There is the barista's bar on the left, and two-seater tables clinging to the right. The bar side is roomier than the table side, emphasizing whose domain this is. The walls are the shade of parchment paper and scattered with frames, gold and dark brown. A few of them hold illustrated portraits of posh foxes in renaissance clothing, but most embrace bare wall. Golden semi-opaque lamps hang over the bar. No which one is alike, but the shapes seem like friends and emit a similar warm light. It's comfortingly dim inside, not so bright where everything becomes ugly but an improvement from the light in, say, a typical NY apartment, which may be why so many of its patrons are working on their laptops here instead of at home. Whenever a bus passes by on the street, it fills the entire storefront window and the café briefly darkens. The front room ends at a wall full of holes, the holes being a door frame and two punched-out windows. Beyond this wall is a smaller back room. Though compact, this second room doesn't feel cramped, perhaps because of the holes and the light coming in from the patio door in the back. You could go out the patio door, but then you'd be back outside. And it's hot out there. The sun smiles but is unkind. You might take a peek, though. You've always wanted a backyard. There are large tables and benches sitting lazily under enormous tree branches. Ok, it's time to go back inside. You sit at the counter by the bar, sip a drip coffee, which has a comforting fruity taste. The croissant is bready and definitely not the best croissant, but it is large and satisfying.
