Art Café
Art Café is a small restaurant on Broadway Avenue in the village of Nyack serving breakfast and light Middle Eastern and Israeli cuisine in a cozy setting. The space features simple furnishings, soft lighting, local art on the walls, and an outdoor seating area under a retractable canopy for nice weather.
The café was founded by someone inspired by Tel Aviv coffee houses, bringing that tradition to Nyack. Over the years, it has evolved into a community gathering spot and occasionally hosts local art exhibitions and events.
The name Art Café reflects its connection to Tel Aviv coffee culture, blended with a community gathering place that displays local art on its walls. Locals return regularly, and the staff often greet them by name, creating a neighborhood spot where people exchange stories over coffee and food.
The café opens early in the morning and stays open until evening, with advance table reservations possible and a waitlist when busy. The space is pet-friendly and offers both delivery and pickup, making it flexible for different needs.
The café serves a signature lavender latte that visitors find memorable, along with traditional Israeli dishes like shakshuka with vegan feta and malawach. This mix of unexpected flavors and regional classics appeals to those seeking something beyond typical breakfast fare.
