NYC: Cafe Borgia II (CLOSED) + Birdbath Neighborhood Green Bakery; restaurant reviews

Cafe Borgia II  

CLOSED  161 Prince St./Thompson St., Soho, (212) 677-1850. 

This is the perfect place to sit down and while away the time over a sweet and a cold or hot drink--depending on the weather--especially if you can nab one of the tables open to the sidewalk.  Being so small, Cafe Borgia II is surprising to find they have an extensive menu, with breakfast items, sandwiches and burgers, and ice cream concoctions.

Birdbath Neighborhood Green Bakery 

is directly across the street at 190 Prince St. 

Operating within the old-time building that once was home to the Vesuvio Bakery, Birdbath Neighborhood Green Bakery delivers bread by bicycle-powered rickshaws and gives customers who arrive by bike a discount.  People line up to purchase giant chocolate-chip cookies (a vegan version is available) stacked in the window, pretzel croissants, and other delicious items from City Bakery.  Grab-and-go light lunch items are also available; seating is limited.
