Cornelia Street Cafe

Editorial Review

Historic downstairs spot hosts histrionic poetry readings and a science series that draws more Nobel laureates than you can shake a particle accelerator at—if you're smart, you'll reserve tickets for the brainy events. Upstairs is a quaint brick affair with creative café fare to complement the eclectic programming. We love the sesame salmon and the juicy burger.
