Café Angelique

A larger-​than-​most selection of Dough donuts is really the only reason to spend time or money here.

I usually forget about this place since I’m not in Nolita all that often. The times that I have been there, it’s not too hard to grab an empty table if it’s a weekday morning or even between the 12 – 1 hour. Some people come in to sit but a lot of people just get orders to go.
Their muffins and scones are very good and the Café Au Lait is decent. It does always seem freezing in there in the winter, though. I know it’s a small place and they’re probably getting draft from the door but it also feels like they’re not turning any heat on inside the café.
Overall, charming atmosphere, but a little too chilly.

Having only one person in the front on a sunny, warm Saturday in the middle of February isn’t a wise choice. As for the offerings, dough donuts are cool but they’re so common in NYC that they’re borderline boring. Coffee is meh. There’re a lot of parties to choose from, but they all look alike and some are over beaked. This is just another generic café with no soul. Also, no restroom and no AC.

I popped in to grab a cheese and scallion scone. The scone was super crumbly and literally disintegrated in my hands. What I was able to scoop into my mouth wasn’t that great. The scallions were really over-​powering. Can’t say I’d come back.

One of my favorite lattes around & yummy food — muffins /​sandwiches /​pastries. Staff is pretty rude most of the time, though.

I come here every day before I head to work for my coffee because there is no coffee like this place. The owner is very nice as well as the rest of the staff. I actually stopped getting crappy starbucks coffee for this place. Their almond croissant is scrumptious as well!

While wandering around downtown, I really wanted a donut and stumbled upon the «Dough donuts» sign and pictures, so I got super excited. I LOVE Dough doughnuts! After waiting in a longer than expected line with spotty service, I was disappointed that my hibiscus donut was rather cold, nothing like the fresh and warm dough that I was expecting. This is no replacement for fresh Dough donuts but enough to satisfy my donut craving.

Stopped in to grab something quick to go. Somehow a small coffee and a pretty subpar «Cobb» (not to mention it was pre made) salad set me back $ 20. The salad was partially frozen (???) and came with a couple of browning avocado slices and some tiny tasteless bits of chicken. Got the balsamic vinaigrette which was also flavorless and strangly lumpy.
Could have gone to the crappy deli around the corner and gotten a better number made to order for half the price. At least at the guy at the bodega gives me a smile once in a while, unlike the scowling, monosyllabic counter help at this place.
On a positive, the coffee was pretty good.
Totally lame. Totally over priced.

Lovely place ~ reminds me the small coffee shops in Paris~
Nice coffee and desert!
They also have hand made cookies, sandwich and French toast, noodle soup
Warm up a day

I just loved their fruit cup with yogurt. I had it twice during my visit to Manhattan. Their donuts are crazy amazing. Who else do you know carries hibiscus donuts? We brought several home for our family in Austin to try, they all approved.

The staff is annoyed by human presence, rushy and just rude. Great bagel sticks, amazing fruit parfait (when its fresh) — but terrible atmosphere. #dobetter

Best blueberry muffin ever! At least of Bleecker street for sure. Awesome Chai tea latte. The other pastries looked quite great also. Will be back tomorrow for sure!

With a love for coffee and experience working at Caribou Coffee for a little while I started out 2014 with the mission to visit all of the coffee shops in my area. After visiting a few, I thought why not write reviews and share my thoughts on each of them. So here we are… without any further ado let’s dive right in to my unbiased review of Café Angelique.
Location and Ambiance:
Location was solid, and ambiance average.
Coffee:
I recall the coffee being pretty good, but nothing fantastic.
Food:
This was actually a nice surprise. They were very willing to accommodate us by adding chicken to a sandwich w/​o chicken. The food was really good as well!
Staff:
Very nice and flexible!
In summary, its probably worth a stop. :)
Thanks,

This review is for their pastries! I have never tried their drinks, but their patries are delicious! Cool combinations of fruity muffins, super yummy scones and other selections.
Service is pretty standard, nothing special.

Food: Very Good
Service: Very Good
Ambience: Charming
Stopped here in between two meetings to grab a drink and a snack and was pleasantly surprised.
This place feels like a tiny Café in any major French or Italian city. The ladies behind the counter were very friendly and polite.
I had a Sanpellegrino and Spinach Boreka.
The Boreka was flaky and delicious.
Next time I am in the area I am stopping in again to try the donuts and other pastries.

I passed by this place today while walking towards the train station and decided to grab a drink – the donut menu was really what captured my attention. The first thing I saw was the drink menu (obviously) and some guy behind the counter came over to ask what I wanted. I asked for a chai tea latte and he motioned me to the barista standing near the cash register (well, okay…) I asked for my drink again and the barista quickly took out a carton of chai tea mix. Since it was a little warm today, I asked for a cold drink instead. He turned around and asked «WHAT?» I repeated it again and he finally heard me. Well, okay… maybe I was speaking too softly.
The total came out to be $ 4.03. I handed him a $ 10 and was searching for the extra 3 cents in my purse so he wouldn’t have to give me the coins. I told him, «Wait, here are 3 cents.» «What?» he asked. I responded, «The total is $ 4.03?» And right when I was about to hand him my coins, he yelled at me «I DON’T UNDERSTAND YOU.» I had to repeat «$ 4.03» three times (pretty much yelling back after the first time) before he finally understood me. Wow, I’ve never had a cashier yell at me before for giving money!
HORRIBLE SERVICE and the drink tasted like something I can make at home in 2 minutes– not worth it. Do not recommend this place.

Skippable café. Mediocre and overpriced pastries, terrible espresso, no wifi, and a disinterested-​bordering-​on-​rude-​staff. You’re better off swallowing your «but it’s a chain!» pride and heading down the block to le pain quotidien.

Been in here and the second time was no better than the first. Its the city so you would expect it to be over priced, but damn. You would hope you get what you pay for and this is place is mos def a no no. Im a coffee fiend and i can honestly say that it isnt that great (cinna.whateva the hell. yeah…totally not worth it). What could be just as bad as horrible coffee? Terrible service. The barista just was not friendly at all… then i rememeber that the first encounter was the same thing… bad coffee, bad service. Only reason i came in was because i needed a place to wait and stay warm. The barista and the atmosphere are just as cold as the weather. Ive learned my lesson. Never again.

This place is over priced and (B) rated! The pastries are almost always stale! Please do not, I repeat do not order cookies because they are not fresh baked.
Salad for 15 $$$ its not even fresh either…
To expensive not fresh! The only thing fresh and good is the coffee.

Excellent coffee! The bites from the bakery are also pretty darn good.
I had a decaf almond mil mocha and a vegetarian pesto-​mozzarella sandwich.
The service is very polite and I even noticed they had pretty rad music at the time (RIDE, although not very loud).
I will be back for more.

Love the fruit, yogurt, granola bowl for a filling breakfast to power through the day, or the salmon bagel stick with cucumber for a light lunch on the go. The scallion cream cheese is the BEST version of this cream cheese I’ve had anywhere. SO packed with flavors including dill and garlic– if you like strong flavors– this is the cream cheese for you. The only thing is that they run out of regular bagels fairly early in the day– but they may still have a bagel stick for you in the afternoon.
Sometimes the servers can seem disorganized, but they’ve always managed to get my order right. The roast on the coffee is dark but not too dark or overroasted– I’ve always been happy with my drinks whether they’ve been coffee or espresso.
Café Angelique opens before a lot of other places in the area open up, so they get bonus points for me, who’s an early riser and doesn’t want to eat from a donut cart on the street.

The service was disgraceful, as I was waiting for my coffee I notice a waiter back of house, imitating me to his fellow chefs, when I caught his eye he was embarrassed and resumed his work, trying to hide his rude behavior.
To make matters worst, as I was filling up my water at the self service desk, I saw a rat run from under the coffee machine to the food counter, it caught the Barista’s eye also, but he chose to pretend it didn’t happen.
I highly recommend choosing another West Village café next time

Petit endroit sympathique. Parfait pour un petit creux, un bon thé, un sandwichs très frais. J’ai été bien accueillie, en français (chouette) et complimentée sur ma tenue vestimentaire, ce qui fait toujours plaisir. Une agréable pose gourmande dans une journée shopping a Soho. J’y reviendrai avec plaisir !
Le prix est très raisonnable pour la qualité des produits.

Nettes Ambiente, welches zum verweilen einlädt. Allerdings ist der normale Kaffee eine so dünne Brühe, dass man auf den Tisch sehen konnte… Die Auslagen in der Theke (Brownies, Bagel, etc.) sahen allerdings alle sehr schmackhaft aus. Bedienung: freundlich, aufmerksam
