WEST VILLAGE COLLECTIVE CAFÉ

Bluestone Lane’s West Village Collective Café represents a significant expansion from our smaller coffee shops, offering a seasonal menu featuring progressive café fare with table service, for all-day breakfast, lunch and early evening appetizers.

Friendly, engaging table service combined with a tastefully designed aesthetic where you find respite from the New York hustle, is a pillar of focus for this café.

The Collective Cafe’s menu is dedicated to producing sophisticated, yet clean and natural fare that can be consumed all day. Our menu reflects the café culinary themes found in Australia, where there is strong focus on dishes that are healthy and do not require heavy cooking. We also provide a variety of Gluten Free and Vegan options.

Some of our menu highlights include fresh Avocado Smash paired with tahini, heirloom tomatoes, sprouts, feta and lemon, topped with delicate poached egg, green baked eggs with portobello mushrooms, spinach and feta and coconut quinoa porridge.

All our dishes are complemented by some of the best coffee and tea you’ll find in the city, as well as a carefully selected local beer and wine list.
