Cuppa Hive Coffee

Incredible coffee shop with delicious coffee and pastries, ample space for chatting, reading, or working, and the most pleasant staff you will find. Seriously, the people here are unbelievable kind and courteous.

Free wifi and a large communal table is perfect for solo laptop users. There’s a bathroom, too. Great place to get some work done before or after a visit to ALCOVE nearby where you can have work calls in private.

Wish I could give it 6 stars.

I got their flat white, it was delicious.
There is wifi but somehow the day I went it didn’t work.
They don’t have a lot of outlets so be mindful of that if you want to use your laptop.
There is a restroom (a big plus for me).
Overall, a great place to spend your quiet time or hang out with friends!

Very good latte, very kind staff, very decent place to work! laptop friendly on weekends with plenty of tables. wifi. Bookshelf. outlets I think? Not super busy at all on a sunny Saturday. I bet they get good traffic when the weather is worse.

Cuppa is wonderful refuge. The cafe is clean and relaxing, offering a variety of seating whether you’re looking to relax or you’ve come to work. wifi is very reliable. The baristas are friendly, polite and skilled. I love the drinks and the food! Many of the patrons are familiar because many are regulars. Definitely a testament for their feelings about the place.

If you're looking for a warm, inviting spot to enjoy a cup of delicious coffee, this charming little coffee shop is the place to be. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a comforting aroma of freshly brewed coffee and a cozy ambiance that immediately makes you feel at home.

The drinks are consistently delicious and perfectly brewed, whether you're a fan of classic espresso, a creamy latte, or something more adventurous like a matcha. They also offer a variety of pastries and snacks that pair perfectly with your coffee, making it a complete experience.

Review update after 5 months, for the attention of owners.

Cuppa Hive Coffee is a wonderful café with a great atmosphere and excellent drinks. I truly love this place and always enjoy stopping by. It has a cozy interior, pleasant music, and delicious coffee—everything you need for a nice break.

However, lately, I’ve encountered a serious problem: the café is literally turning into a coworking space. The number of people with laptops occupying tables for hours has become excessive. The last time my family and I visited, we couldn’t even find a free table because about 85% of the café was taken up by people working on their computers, while the remaining 5–6 guests without laptops were squeezed into a corner, hastily drinking their coffee. There was no space for my family and me inside, so we ended up sitting outside on a bench near the café, eating our sandwiches with coffee and leave it disappointed. I’d also like to point out that in the 15 minutes we were there, not a single person with a laptop finished their work or freed up a table.

I understand that many people work remotely nowadays, but a café is still not an office. Most guests only need 20–30 minutes to enjoy their coffee and take a short break—not several hours of work. As a result, Cuppa Hive no longer feels like a café, but more like a remote work hub where regular visitors struggle to find a seat.

I really hope the management takes notice of this situation and implements some form of regulation. Perhaps setting a time limit for laptop use at tables or designating a separate area for those who want to work would help. This would restore a balance between ensuring all guests’ comfort and preventing the café’s cozy atmosphere from being completely replaced by a work-oriented environment. I’d love to keep coming here, but for now, it’s becoming increasingly difficult.

i have visited this place three times now, and I can’t get enough of their iced lattes they’re always spot on! I’ve been tempted to try some of the treats, but sadly, they don’t offer gluten-free options. On the bright side, the atmosphere is really spacious and welcoming, making it a great spot to hang out and get some work done. There’s a bathroom available, and the wifi works both inside and outside, though I’m not entirely sure about the outlets. Overall, it’s a lovely place to spend some time!

Cuppa Hive is so cozy and inviting! The baristas are always kind and make excellent coffee. This is the type of cafe where the baristas remember you and your order. Always makes me happy to walk in here. Their macarons and savory pastries are very tasty too. They have a lot of seating that fills up fast. Always people chatting, laughing, reading, and working. Really nice spot with a surprising array of options to eat and drink.

this place is a great spot for studying, they have wifi, a bathroom and good drinks! i really liked their matcha latter! would come back again !

Great neighborhood coffee spot. Lots of regulars & can get crowded at certain times. There's some outside seating too. Light & airy atmosphere inside with good music & wifi. The coffee is excellent & there is a good selection of pastries - always fresh. The staff are friendly & always make me feel welcome. Thanks guys!

Had a nice latte on their soft opening today. Seems like a nice place to hang. I'll be back with a book or my laptop some day.

This is my favorite coffee shop in the prospect park area by far. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The environment is not too cramped and the ambiance is cozy with a mixture of people conversations, working, and relaxing. The hours are excellent. The food here is well made with outstanding pastries and sandwiches made fresh. The matcha is great here as well, what more could you ask for! :)

Really grateful for this place in the neighborhood - appreciate that it is friendly to people working (shared table/couches) and to people enjoying a book, meal or conversation. I always feel like I’m half in a library, half in a coffee shop. Excellent drink and snack options, appropriately priced.

This shop changed the neighborhood game! The atmosphere is incredible - lively and vibrant. Amazing light all day. Great coffee and every kind of pastry. Whether you want to meet a friend, work on your laptop, or just say hi to any of the amazing baristas… this shop is for you. Warm and welcoming!

Delicious coffee and pastries, a friendly team, and an incredibly cozy atmosphere. A perfect place to spend time with a friend or get some work done on your laptop.

This is *the* WFH spot in South Slope. Lots of seating, public wifi + plugs. Bright, sunny, friendly. Decent coffee. Decent baked goods. Nice people working. Fast service. Bathroom. Everything you need to get some work done on a laptop. There are bar seats by the window, a big shared table, couch spots + a bunch of small tables + benches. I’ve always had a spot to sit down here + will definitely keep coming back. Highly rec.

This is a really great place to do some work! They have lots of tables, good wifi, and they serve drinks in actual mugs. The staff are also pretty friendly, and they have good pastries.

However, the music is very annoying and makes it difficult to work without headphones or to have a conversation. They play a never-ending rotation of corny love ballads (think James Morrison, Ed Sheeran) at a very high volume.

Best coffee shop to study in in this area! Clean and airy. Lots of seating and outlets. Solid wifi. Good service. Downsides are there’s only one bathroom (which is kinda awk in a coffee shop lol) but it’s very clean and the food food (non pastries) is pretty limited to a few sandwiches. Great place to study!

Great cafe for getting a hot/iced beverage or working from for long hours. Very popular for remote workers, kids after school, parents/grandparents whenever, etc. Lovely spot

Lovely iced latte and awesome service by Dascha (I’m so sorry if I spelled that wrong!). Chill vibes and warm ambience, perfect for an afternoon reading or remote working.

Great neighborhood coffee shop. Had functional wifi, clean restroom, decent enough and only slightly overpriced coffee. Overall quiet. Has power outlets. laptop friendly

Great coffee shop with very nice staff. Highly recommend. Unfortunately it's overrun with hipsters posting up and working all day.

Cozy atmosphere, excellent coffee, delicious pastries, and friendly staff—perfect for relaxing or working. 5/5!

Great place to get some work done on your laptop! Just bring a hoodie if you sit in the back 😉

I m really loving this new addition to the PS , great setting, well picked furniture, food on point, super warm and efficient staff, music and books, strong wifi…nafsaid

Great spot to grab a coffee and write/read/hang/work for a bit. And solid wifi!
