Coziest rainy day spot
La Cabra is a Scandinavian-inspired coffee & bakery concept with locations in the East Village (152 2nd Ave) and SoHo (284 Lafayette St). Their East Village location bakes fresh goods daily (e.g. cardamom buns, sourdough) and serves a rotating lineup of high-quality coffees. The design leans clean, minimal, and calming, aiming to highlight the coffee's character. Tech workers and creatives often flock to the SoHo spot, though seating can be limited.
Local Tip: Try their cardamom buns fresh from the oven. Arrive early for seating at the SoHo location. Perfect for laptop work and contemplation.
