Pushing open the glass door at Coffee Mob on Newkirk Avenue feels like slipping into a friendly neighborhood clubhouse: the hiss of a La Marzocco espresso machine, the sweet smell of fresh-baked banana bread, and the easy hum of locals chatting about subway delays or last night’s gig at Kings Theatre. Polished concrete floors meet mismatched vintage chairs, and a mural of Brooklyn’s skyline reminds you exactly where you are.
