Awful! Very rude staff, bad coffee and awful atmosphere. Ohh don’t worry… they will yell at you and kick you out if you show them a laptop and you don’t spend their laptop minimum. Shame and scar on Franklin Ave. You could of had a customer for life… instead over 2 dollars i will never be back.

Other than the bizarre«no laptops before 3pm» rule that they kept enforcing at 2:20pm, this place is awesome! Really well-ventilated, tons of space and outlets, and a super clean bathroom. The windows let in lots of light, which makes studying here during the day quite pleasant. They have a pretty standard selection of caffeinated drinks and their service is quite attentive and efficient. There is a $ 5 minimum per laptop. Great study spot — can’t wait to come back!

Chicken and waffles, vegetable bowl and biscuits were all delicious and the décor is cozy and smart. The honey cinnamon latte is also very good. The staff was really friendly too. Definitely recommended for breakfast/brunch and coffee.

Cool spot. Especially loved their delicious latte and the great food options for vegetarians. All the no laptop signs indicate that people like to sit here for a long time and I don’t blame them.

One of my favorite spots to hit in Broooklyn! I make sure I come here everytime I visit. Good food, coffee, and customer service. Arielle is awesome!

I have no idea what’s going on in this place. There’s a sign to wait to be seated, but no one whose job it is to seat you. And, there’s no menu out so you can see if you want to wait for seating… so you just stand there kind of baffled. They really need to work on how to engage new customers.

Uhm I didn’t like this place one bit. So it was in the middle of the day and we wanted breakfast. This place had the smallest menu ever. I just wasn’t a fan of anything on the menu, so I didn’t order anything but BF did. The biscuit was cold when the food arrive. I must say the vegetables was season great and taste good as well as the duck bacon. His eggs was cold. I also like the fact that they had compote instead of jelly! Will I come again nah! I think this is just a place to do your work and grad coffee and a light bite. Nothing special.

I went here once a few weeks ago to spend a few hours drinking coffee and working. I’d gotten a recommendation from a friend, but I was pretty disappointed in how pricey their breakfast sandwiches were. Don’t get me wrong — the sandwich was delicious and the coffee was pretty good. But the sandwich wasn’t worth the over $ 9 I spent on it. The place wasn’t very busy, so I stayed for a few hours, but for some reason I wasn’t super cozy here like I am in a lot of other coffee shops, like Manhattanville. I was pretty underwhelmed and being here was a pretty forgettable experience. The staff was kind, The atmosphere here is nice, and the colors are soothing, but something about it just kind of makes me feel like the whole place is so-so, and the price of the food didn’t make me too excited to make plans to return. I walk past this place a lot but I don’t really feel compelled to go back inside. Sorry, Lazy Ibis. :(

The biscuit that came with the Green Eggs and Bacon was so light and crispy. And don’t let the Veggie Bowl fool you. It seems like it’s bottomless! A well deserved 4 stars

The Lazy Ibis has a big open space with free wifi if you want to come in and work. The seats are very comfortable and have cushions and more. The coffee is very good, and they can make just about everything. It also has an interesting atmosphere with old spinning machines, typewriters, globes, and more, but they do a good job of adding character to the space and not clutter.

Very quaint restaurant in Prospect/Crown Heights area. Charming mismatched seats, natural wood tables, banquette seating along the window and good iced coffee. Food was slightly disappointing. I had the egg scramble and duck bacon — loved the duck bacon but honestly this doesn’t differ from a $ 2 meal i can make at home. My friend ordered the kitchen sink scramble and there was certainly a lot of veggies in it, but a majority of them felt like filler veggies(i.e. cauliflower versus mushrooms or zucchini or other more prime veggies). I’d come back just for coffee but will likely get an actual breakfast meal somewhere else.

Iced coffee = yum yum yum. Everything(or just about) on the brunch menu is served with a biscuit the size of both of your fists(except for things like what I ordered apparently). We came in on a sweltering Sunday(no really, it had to have been 1,000 degrees outside). The place has a few ceiling fans and one poor air conditioner that was blowing all it could, but to little avail. With only one server working, it was a little while before we were told to «sit anywhere» despite the«please wait to be seated» sign. We squeezed next to a *blogger* camped out in the middle of a cluster of tables. The service was a tad slow. It took a while to get menus, to place our order, to get our food, and to pay the check. Don’t be in a hurry. The food was good. I(being boring and slightly delusional from the heat) ordered the baked mac and four cheese. I think it needed some breadcrumbs too, but the bleu cheese crumbles kept it interesting enough. It didn’t come with anything else, which I thought was a little odd(maybe a little salad?) Boyfriend ordered the egg scramble biscuit sandwich, which had a cute attempt at salad(several slices of steamed carrots and kale… how Brooklyn cliché). Just be warned this isn’t quite a brunch place – it’s a coffee shop that also serves easy yogurt granola bowls and biscuits with a small combination of toppings(eggs, lox, veggies). Being new to the area, I was under the impression that this was a full on brunch place, and perhaps Unilocal only had the partial menu posted. Nope. I may come back for the coffee, but not necessarily the food.

Nice, relaxed atmosphere. Though, by far, the smell of fresh roasting coffee beans was the biggest lure of all. It’s in the corner near the front, and the they just continually roast beans, so the smell is intoxicating. Ordered an iced caramel latte. It came in a mason jar with layers, caramel syrup, milk, and espresso floating at the top of this decadent coffee treat! The flavor was amazing and and just so rich! Didn’t have time to try the food, but from what I could see on other’s plates, I’ll have to come back and try their food another day. I’ll definitely be back for the coffee!!!

I came in on a cold winter afternoon because I was suffering from cabin fever and just wanted to lay eyeballs on a different set of walls than the ones in my apartment. I went over with my laptop and a craving for hot coffee and some lunch. Inside, they have a few tables with most of them taken by other folks with laptops. I was able to snag a prime spot on the bench just behind the fishtank. I ordered the Bison Burger and a cup of coffee. The coffee came hot and steamy with a great caffeine kick. The best part of it was that when I got distracted by my burger and the coffee cooled down, it still tasted good*! As for the bison burger, it was on the dry side as it was cooked well-done(they didn’t ask for a preferred temperature) but the flavors were really quite good! A really lean meat patty that was topped with thinly sliced apples and spicy pepperjack cheese sandwiched between a homemade BISCUIT! The biscuit alone is worth going back for — I highly recommend coming in just for that. I settled in with my wifi password and got down to work(surfing the internet). The ambiance was pretty mellow with some 90s top 40s hits playing in the background(I watched a guy singing along to Mariah Carey and the sunlight coming in through the big windows in the front. I was a bit cold and the seats were a bit hard for it to be considered cozy but overall, a pleasant experience. — — – * Cold coffee tastes similar to the way BO smells. To me.

I typically come for decent coffee and the delicious breakfast biscuit sandwich — eggs, cheddar, avocado, and duck bacon. I’ve tasted the sauage gravy but it was lackluster. As is the service here… miserably slow so turn on your patience before you walk in. They roast their own coffee beans, have free wifi, and usually a spot for 2 to sit without having to hover in hopes that someone leaves. There’s room for improvement but if you go in without high expectations, it will be a good experience.

I had a horrible experience here. We arrived at around 2 on a Saturday for a quick bite to eat. They seated us promptly and brought us some coffee — great! Then our orders were taken about 5 minutes later. We sat waiting for our eggs/biscuits for another HOUR. I kept asking the hostess for an update and she kept assuring me 5 more minutes — 5 more minutes. We also doublechecked that they got our order right several times, we had one party member with an allergy and one who is a vegeterian and we had a tiny order adjustment(taking some meat out of the grilled cheese). When the food arrived, we again asked if the grilled cheese had meat in it because we had no faith in the staff at this point. She said nope they got it out. Party member takes a bite of the grilled cheese, and VOILA, there’s the meat we asked to be taken out 150 times. This after an hour of waiting! The other dishes were similarly uninspiring and the restaurant really lived up to its ‘Lazy’ moniker. The only saving grace of this visit was the manager comped the meal — which we barely touched anyways.

An excellent neighborhood coffee shop. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. The use of space is efficient and comfortable. The food is fresh and appetizing, and the coffee is truly delicious. Now that said, take a hint from this café’s name. These barrista-servers are chiiilllllin’. Service is slow and a tad inefficient, albeit genuine and friendly. The slow pace of service is not a negative quality: this is a coffee shop you commit to for a couple of hours to get some work done or to catch up with a friend. If you are looking for the quick sip, in and out, coffee to go sort of spot, keep walking further up Franklin. Also: the«kitchen sink scramble.» Eat it. You’re welcome.

Very attentive staff in a cool little space. If you blink, you might miss it! There’s a barista here who’s hilarious and tells you like is.(I wish I could remember her name!) She’ll never let you order something that tastes bad. I’m not a big coffee person but this is where I’d go if I lived in the area. Great coffee and tea, its as simple as that!

Really awkward experience yesterday as I was working and chilling at the coffee shop. This guy came in and spoke to the barista about some double charge and showed him his phone to prove it and he barista wouldn’t give him his $ back… ugh really? It eventually escalated into an argument(why couldn’t they have taken it outside? We’re trying to enjoy a peaceful coffee shop) then eventually the barista calls the cops! The phone started ringing and the barista wouldn’t pick it up, saying he had no boss or something. Really dude? If paying back a customer for one pound of coffee is really that big a deal, even calling the police over, then I’m sure not frequenting this place ever again. It was really uncomfortable to sit and have to listen to this. I hope that barista eventually apologized. Sorry Ibis, you’ve lost me. Good customer service is an absolute must for a coffee shop.

Such a perfect corner local coffee house. The owner roasts his own beans and has kitchen specialities unlike anything else in the area. Everything made fresh in the kitchen on site! Very friendly place and great if you need to sit and work for a few hours or just meet a friend for a bite and sip. Having an iced americano this morning with a «Ibis Nest» which is duck bacon, egg, and some breakfast medley into a tiny muffin size. See my pic!
