Three Manhattan cafés, each with their own neighborhood charm. Effy’s brings a scratch-made, meatless Mediterranean menu to the Upper West Side, Columbus Avenue, and Yorkville. Since 2002, we have served New York City with fresh, kosher food made with the same attention to detail across every location.
The UWS and York Ave cafés offer the full all-day menu, while Columbus Ave is a lighter café and patisserie stop.

Effy’s Upper West Side café is located at 104 W 96th St, between Broadway and Amsterdam Ave. It’s open every day from 8 AM–9 PM and serves a full all-day meatless Mediterranean menu.
This is the original Effy’s neighborhood café. Stop in for breakfast before work, settle in for brunch, or pick up something on the go. Call (212) 280-6200 for more information.
The café is steps from the 96 St Station for the 1 train, 2 train, and 3 train. It’s also a short walk from Central Park’s west entrance, making it an easy stop before a morning in the park or after a walk through the Upper West Side.
Order online for pickup or delivery from the Upper West Side location. The full menu is available daily across the neighborhood and nearby Manhattan areas.
Effy’s Columbus Ave is located at 552 Columbus Avenue, between W 86th and W 87th St. This location is Effy’s lighter café format. It’s a good stop for coffee, fresh pastries, or a quick kosher snack while you’re out in the neighborhood. The same IKC-certified standards and from-scratch recipes are behind the food here, with a more focused selection than the full-service cafés. Open daily from 7 AM to 5 PM.
The Columbus Avenue café is near the B train and C train at 86 St–Columbus Ave. The 1 train at 86 St is also close by. It’s an easy walk from Central Park West, whether you’re heading into Central Park or spending the afternoon around the Upper West Side.
Columbus Ave is suited to a casual stop. Pick up a coffee and pastry to go or join us for a light breakfast.
Columbus Ave is the right choice when you want the “light” Effy’s café experience!
Effy’s Yorkville café is located at 1688 York Ave, between 88th and 89th Street. It is open daily from 8 AM–9 PM and serves the full meatless Mediterranean menu for dine-in, pickup, and delivery.
The York Ave location is in Yorkville, a short walk from the 6 train at 86 St–Lexington Ave. It is also close to Carl Schurz Park and the East River Esplanade, making it a natural stop before or after time near the water.
Order ahead for pickup or delivery throughout Yorkville and the Upper East Side. The full menu is available from morning through evening.
Effy’s began on the Upper West Side in 2002 and has grown with the neighborhoods around it. Effy’s creates a cozy atmosphere, with food made fresh daily, a meatless kitchen, and a welcoming team.
Every Effy’s kitchen is fully meatless and built around scratch-made Mediterranean food with Middle Eastern influences. The full menu includes shakshuka, falafel, hummus, smoked fish plates, French toast, salads, wraps, and more.
There are vegetarian options throughout the menu, along with delicious vegan and plant-based dishes.
All three Effy’s cafés are kosher certified under IKC supervision. That gives guests a dependable option when they are looking for a kosher café in Manhattan without limiting themselves to one neighborhood.
