Hungry Ghost COFFEE+CONVERSATION IN BROOKLYN
DRINK STUMPTOWN, EAT SCONES

Espresso & the City - Hungry Ghost (Prospect Heights)
I’ve been meaning to visit Hungry Ghost for the past few months since it popped up on Flatbush Ave on the border of Prospect Heights and Park Slope and I’m so glad I finally did. I first went on a hot summer Saturday and was pleasantly surprised to walk into a big airy space with wooden benches and tables. There was a mix of the stroller set and 20/30-somethings and their laptops. Both times I have visited it’s been busy but I’ve always been served quickly and efficiently.
