Mango Matcha Meets Statue of Liberty Views in Red Hook
Sip and settle into Sunday reading at Cafe Here, where Australian beans meet a quiet Brooklyn waterfront setting.
📖 A Slower Waterfront Afternoon
There is a quieter side to Red Hook, and Cafe Here makes a convincing case for taking your time there. At 499 Van Brunt St, Unit 3A, this waterfront cafe pairs creamy mango matcha with views of the Statue of Liberty. Bring the book you keep meaning to finish. Sunday reading feels right at home in a space made for a relaxed escape from the crowds.
The drinks go beyond matcha. Baristas brew beans from a premium Australian brand, and bags are available to take home. Pair your coffee with bold Asian fusion desserts for something sweet alongside the cup. The menu gives a coffee break a little more room than a quick espresso stop.
Cafe Here opens at 9 AM daily, closing at 4 PM on Monday and Tuesday and 5 PM from Wednesday through Sunday. That leaves the morning and early afternoon for a slow cup and a few more pages.
