Review: Drip Coffee: Flatbush

This Flatbush hot spot is a hidden gem you need to know about

Hey readers,

This week we are in Flatbush with a good friend of WFHishNYC, Molly Stark Dean. She’s showing us one of her favorite places to get some work done in Flatbush.

Neighborhood: Flatbush

Address: 830 Rogers Ave, Brooklyn, New York 11226

Plug situation: The plug situation here is quite accommodating. There are outlets conveniently placed under the counter and additional options available at the tables. A unique feature is that the staff keeps chargers on hand for various phone models if you find yourself without one.

Seating: Drip offers diverse seating arrangements to suit different work styles. You'll find high-top seating at the counter for solo workers, communal tables for collaborative sessions, and several individual tables. The comfortable couch provides a more relaxed option for longer work sessions or casual meetings.

Wi-Fi: Getting connected is straightforward with credentials displayed at the counter. The connection is reliable enough for standard remote work needs.

Bathroom situation: A bathroom is available on site, making this suitable for longer work sessions without needing to relocate.

Noise level: The atmosphere transforms throughout the day. During daytime hours, it maintains a focused, calm environment conducive to concentration and productivity. Evenings shift to a more social setting with louder music and various events, making it less suitable for work but perfect for unwinding.

Lighting: Natural light floods the space through large windows during daylight hours, creating an energizing environment. Supplementary lighting ensures the space remains well-lit during evenings or darker days.

Food: The culinary offerings are a standout feature. Drip serves what many consider the best Haitian patties in the city, alongside donuts and various locally sourced pastries. For those working into evening hours, they operate a late-night kitchen (check their Instagram for details). Regulars know to ask about the seasonal secret menu items for unique drink options.

Overall: Drip Beverage Lounge represents an excellent option in Flatbush for remote work, particularly if you appreciate a space with character and community connection. The transition from a focused daytime workspace to an evening social venue makes it versatile for different needs. The Haitian influence brings distinctive food and drink options that elevate it beyond typical coffee shop fare. The friendly staff and owner create a welcoming atmosphere that makes even newcomers feel like regulars.
