Capitoline Grounds

Crappy coffee with an attitude. They don’t even have half and half. Should’ve known and walked right out. On the bright side however, the chocolate chip cookie was delicious.

I legit love this place since I work close by I’ve been meaning to pop in ! I finally did it one morning and decided to get a hot chocolate and A apple turn over ! Both were delicious !!! Which lead me to go back the next day to get another hot chocolate ! Next I’m going to try the chai latte ! This place opens pretty early which is a good thing ! It’s also set up really nice and I totally wanna give a shout out to Nadia she’s always there in the mornings making my hot chocolate! She’s awesome and the best !!! Thank you so much ! I’m always going to come back to this place ! That hot coco is perfect too me because it’s just right and isn’t watery like some other places!

Little cozy place where to enjoy an espresso and some homemade brownies overlooking the not so busy streets of Brooklyn. A cool hang out spot even thou as I said, a bit small but that doesn’t take anything away from it. They also have a selection of «fine selected» products like pasta and marmalade and different teas … Stop in, it’s worth it! I forgot about the outdoor patio which is a great add on to this place.

I love stopping into this place, especially in the summer when you can sit on the patio in back. I have yet to order any food off the menu but I have had some of their treats at the counter, like the yogurt parfait and the yogurt cranberry bars. The coffee is always served great with wonderful service. I would give it 5 stars but there isn’t a lot of places to sit on the inside which is hard in the winter time.

This place is a great hope to better the neighborhood. But one employee there has her own rules. .please make fresh latte..

This place has excellent sandwiches and chocolate chip cookies and chai. I live in the neighborhood and visit often.

This place has all the elements of a successful business, except the coffee. It’s very bad. I took a sip, added sugar, took another sip and could not continue. It’s very unappealing to the palate. Paying $ 4.36 for a metallic tasting small latte is very disappointing. The ambiance is very casual, it’s warm and friendly, the service is great, the girl behind the counter was so friendly and professional.
They need to really rework their coffee selection or perhaps the process of prepping the coffee with the espresso machine.

This place is going to be booming next year. It’s a diamond in the ruff. The setup is amazing to me. Fulton Street is changing quickly. It started down Tompkins ave and now it’s bending the corner. I actually couldn’t believe they had a juice bar on this side of Fulton. The juice was good, could’ve been better had I added ginger and lemon. The back yard looks so big. I will be coming back to have a nice salad when I can sit still. When I have a meal I can update my review.

Pretty good café in the heart of bedstuy. They have a nice outdoor space in the back. The food is pretty good and it is very quaint. It is indeed a nice place to get some work done.

Delicious food and wonderful atmosphere.
This is a beautiful little spot and becomes more close to me everytime I visit.
Make sure to check out the back!

Ok coffee, but wonderful selection of pastries, and friendly staff. A regular stop on my commute. The sandwiches and smoothies are particularly good

Pleasant atmosphere and friendly service but their espresso drinks are weak and watery. Also, I’m very suspicious that some of their pastry dough comes from a Pillsbury can.

Smoothies, sandwiches, gourmet foods, and of course great coffee. Capitoline has become my favorite local spot for a quick meal or drink. The staff rocks! Oh, and credit cards are welcomed.

The barista is super friendly and honest about the products offered at this Jack of all trades coffee shop. By Jack of all trades, this coffee shop serves as a coffee shop and an organic grocery store offering organic products ranging from pickles, to meat. Which amaze me the most is that they are able to sell organic olive oil by the gallon, giving the best quality cooking oil to locals in the area.
Came here for a cup of coffee because it was feature on the CUPS apps, but I was more appeal by their products. I ordered a pumpkin spice latte, at the end of March which got me hype because pumpkin spice have been been gone from various shop menus due to the seasons. My latte was made fast and on point — I like the pumpkin spice latte here better than Starbucks which have always been my favorite because it is less sweet but very aromatic. There is the cardamom aftertaste that pumpkin spice should have, instead of being synthetically sweet which is gross.
This place is far from home, but if I ever stop by the Bed Stuy area I will definitely be back! They also have an outdoor patio in the back which is currently close, and free wifi is offer to the customers.

What a great addition to Crown Heights! Yes yes, its a sign of the gentrification to come, but this is also a wonderful little spot to get coffee or a bite to eat for anyone. My boyfriend and I only had coffee and peanut butter cookies the first time we went, but the gal behind the counter was very friendly, the coffee was great, and the peanut butter cookie was quite darn perfect. We really want to come back and try some food from the menu because everything sounds delicious!

I would have liked to have tasted the food but from the time I walked in I got no greeting and was ignored for ten minutes by the woman at the counter. She was greeting other people that came in after me. Maybe she thought I didn’t belong there. It was a complete waste of time.

My new fave place to be… Brooklyn Gem. This place knows the definition of customer service… Nadia is the most wonderful sales associate ever!!! She’s always so friendly and attentive… I find myself drifting here even when I’m not hungry lol… I love the chicken w/avocado…white macadamia cookies are always fresh and the white mocha is my ultimate fave! I can’t wait for the weather to get warm so I can relax outdoors at my new favorite spot.

I love the space (the backyard!!) and the menu, but the drip coffee is TERRIBLE. To take from another reviewer, it tasted like burnt water with soy milk. The apple pie latte I tried the previous trip was pretty tasty, but definitely stay away from the drip. I’d like to try their smoothies and sandwiches sometime though, so I may update this in the future.

Cute and convenient place, but this is the first coffee I had to throw away before drinking it all. It didn’t even taste like coffee… more like burnt water with soy milk.
Also, the place smells of sour milk. I was considering buying a few items, but had to leave because of the smell. ???
Service was great… the girl working behind the counter seems to be very outgoing and pleasant.

Just had breakfast here and loved it! Great atmosphere and very yummy. I had the hazelnut ice cream along with my Nutella & banana crêpe. The outside seating is wonderful and quiet. You forget that you are on busy Fulton Street!
