Locally Roasted Iced Lattes at a Small Brooklyn Counter

Pull up to a compact Brooklyn counter for house roasted coffee, warm pastries, and blended smoothies.

Grab a cinnamon iced latte at Highly Grounded Cafe.

☕ A Neighborhood Coffee Counter

Tucked along Avenue U beside a laundromat, this narrow counter runs on beans roasted close to home and a barista who dusts cinnamon straight over the foam. The espresso machine anchors a short wood bar, tip jar and to go cups within reach, while a case near the register fills with cookies, scones, and croissants through the morning. Iced lattes come streaked with cinnamon and swirled milk, and the smoothie and tea board runs long for a shop this size. Regulars rate it 4.8 across more than 100 reviews, and the front patio under a striped umbrella gives you a rare seat on this stretch of Brooklyn. Grab a Surprise Bagel if the chalkboard still lists one.
