noa, a café

A Midtown café that pours iced lattes, hot mocha coffee, and pastries, and plates sourdough sandwiches and avocado toast. One regular swears by the date joon latte, available only iced, paired with the Soho sourdough sandwich. The Persian Love cake has earned its own following: a large order for a party became the hit of the event, and a mix-up with pickup was fixed by staff personally delivering a fresh cake the next morning. Service isn't always smooth, though — one visitor found the vanilla cream foam drink rushed and disappointingly light, neither creamy nor sweet.
