Best café to study in
Café Lyria is located in the lobby of 166 Crosby Street in the NoHo / SoHo border zone. The owners, Greek brothers Yannis and Theo Mastoros, infuse their heritage into the menu: their signature "Lyria" drink combines espresso with Greek honey and oat milk. Their menu also includes freddo cappuccino, frappes, and "grandma's cookies" recipes inspired by family baking. The space is elegant, airy, lightly decorated, and carefully curated, though it sometimes sees lines due to limited seating.
Local Tip: Try their signature "Lyria" drink with Greek honey and oat milk. Arrive early to secure a seat as space is limited. Bring headphones for focused study.
