Great breakfast sandwich, portion was amazing choc full of goodness. Clearly care was taken in the preparation. My latte was also delicious and the atmosphere was so nice. Service is incredible. Can't wait to go back.

This is a really cute cafe! I came here to work and there was ample space with tables and some had outlets! The service was great. I ordered an americano that was good but didn't have any food- although they had a lot of options! One thing that surprised me was that around 3pm this cafe became filled with kids coming in with their parents- which I thought was very cool! I'd come back

Was this one of the best egg breakfast sandwiches we've ever eaten? I think so, as they served up two fluffy made to order scrambled eggs and cheese with, thick and nicely cooked bacon on a soft, fresh brioche roll. A five star sandwich! We also had a latte and cappuccino, both were very good. The overall four star rating is due to the egg and spinach frittata, which arrived much too cool, and was very dense. We were mot impressed with that dish. But if you're in the mood for some good coffee and a great egg sandwich, I'd check out Root Hill Cafe!

Great coffee fresh & ready to go... this lil haven is right along my route to work and it's actually keeping me away from Starbucks lol.. Reasonable prices and good service as well. Sometimes the ppl who work there are dressed as if they just got out of bed .. not sure if that's apart of the charm of this place or what but .. I doubt that! Otherwise, good place to grab a good cup of Joe!

Atmosphere: Noticed the friendly interaction of the staff with people inside & outside the Cafe. Coffee: Ordered 2x Lattes and 1 Iced Oat Lavender. The Lattes were more like a mixture of coffee and cold milk. Expected a hot drink but received something barley warm. Not drinkable. The Iced Oat Lavender my daughter ordered was great. My wife and I might try that the next time. Food: 2ea Bacon, egg and cheese brioche sandwiches and a raspberry crumble bar. The raspberry bar was alright. Expected the bar to be soft. Had a little age on it. The sandwiches were much better than anything you can get at a big box coffee shop.

Had coffee and breakfast at Root Hill Cafe on Sunday morning. They have some excellent coffee and decent food though the menu is a bit pricier than other places in the area. Quality: Root Hill Cafe has probably my favorite Iced Coffee in the Park Slope area. My girlfriend also raves about the Matcha Latte, which is pricey but apparently worth it. I am a little less enthusiastic about their food, but it is not bad. During a recent visit I ordered both the Cheddar Biscuit Sandwich and the Veggie Burger. The Cheddar Biscuit Sandwich was the better of the two with a delicious biscuit, but I was not crazy about the sausage patty and felt it needed a sauce. The Veggie Burger was okay, but the patty was too heavy with beans for me and I did not understand the bland yogurt-style sauce. I think you are probably better sticking with a drink and maybe a pastry. Quantity: A large iced drink is 24oz, which is pretty large. The food items are perfect for a small breakfast snack. Value: $4.50 for a Large Iced Coffee. $7.50 for a Cheddar Biscuit Sandwich. $7.50 for a Veggie Burger. Ambiance: Root Hill Cafe is located on the border of Park Slope and Gowanus. The shop sits on the corner and they currently are operating out of a window. Normally they have a small inside space with a few tables, which I have only seen through the window. For now, they only have outdoor seating with a bench out front and several tables along the side of the cafe. Sometimes they have umbrellas out, but it seems like it depends on the day, rather than the weather. What was missing is some soft music outside, but I assume they are hoping to reopen inside soon making it less important. Crowd: Always a line in the mornings, and it only grows on the weekends. It is no secret they has some of the best coffee around. Service: Extremely friendly staff, and considering the line, they were very efficient. Currently they are working out of a make-shift window, so the ability to dart back and forth to the kitchen makes it even more impressive. Parking: Street parking can be found nearby.

Hands down the best iced matcha latte. A bit of a walk and not the cheapest (around $5.5 wothout add ons) but worth it! Can't go back to other watered down, super milky matchas. Very friendly service. They have a few stools to sit outside
