Great Cafe / Veg Snack

by billmand1

Great to have fresh-cooked vegetarian options while having coffee. Lot of regulars give it a local feel, but not too offputting. Overall solid. Really enjoyed the Philly Cheesesteak sandwich made with seitan and soy cheese.

Great cafe!

by brooklynlife

I have been to 'Snice three times now. In general, I have found the staff to be fine. Not overly friendly, but not rude either. As one person said before, I don't think that you can expect much more than that these days. That being said, I think that the food is fantastic! I love the food choices that they offer. I have tried one of the salads and one of the wraps, and both were excellent. I know that my husband, a non-vegetarian, would love the food here as well. I haven't tried any of the treats yet, but they do look good. It is exciting to find a cafe serving mainly veggie and vegan food in a nice, bright open atmosphere. I think that the pricing is fair, knowing the cost of food these days. I actually think that their coffee prices are lower than normal. It was packed today when I arrived, so they must be doing something right.

• Pros: excellent veggie/vegan food
• Cons: service was a little slow

NOT so 'SNice... 'SNarky

by BodiTree

I'd have a lot of trouble returning to 'snice because of the snarky staff. The woman seem indifferent, which I am fine with, but the tall guy with the backwards cap has a REAL bad attitude. Details are irrelevant. I DON'T NEED TO BE MADE TO FEEL BAD BY COFFEE DUDE! To the point I felt uncomfortable. Begrudgingly, with instant regret, I even tipped him a dollar for a cup of coffee, no thanks of course (that is against the rules in the hipsters guide to being rude to people.) I've read several other reviews here and apparently this is a pattern and one the owner seems comfortable with. So, DO NOT GO THERE. Don't know if you have noticed, but there is no shortage of coffee places in NYC. Can't wait to see what goes in that place next. Food is fine, coffee is great. Atmosphere is perfect, just get rid of that guy and others that people have complained about! One star because coffee dude made my coffee taste sour today.
