Stopped by this cute Filipino cafe while in the area, it was great! The service was so friendly, there was numerous seating options as well as different drinks, sweets, snacks, and goodies to buy in the back. Loved the Ube latte (with espresso) and cake! Must try if you’re around :)

The photos I saw online doesn't do it justice. No kidding. Was really charmed with the ambiance when I went there in person. There was so much warmth in the place - the natural light, colors, the friendly vibe from the owner. Got curious with the ube latte, ube cheesecake, ube swirl and tried these for the first time. Wasn't sure what to expect at first but wow the flavor combinations were great! On location: I'm not from this area but I easily found it. Easy ~3 min walk from the station. Will definitely come back when I'm in NY!

This cafe is incredible and very different than other coffee shops. This shop is filled with art and good company. Emma is fantastic and this place is homey to teachers, nurses and professionals. Dark roast coffee is the best. Highly recommend this Hawthorne coffee shop.

If this place is not a major success, it's gonna be a giant loss to the area and the cultural epicenter of Westchester. This place offers lavish coffees. Beautiful homemade foods with a beautiful expression of Filipino homeland. This was an amazing eclectic center of beauty, art, peace, and service.. The coffee's AND beverages are beyond any expectation. It is of a quintessential taste. The pastries and homemade foods. were decadent and simple at the same time. I loved the pork bun. I'm going to go up there and buy more and more. It tasted better than anything. I've had a long time.. Go there, support this business, they deserve it, it's an amazing establishment.

Very cute cafe in this local neighborhood. The staff were super friendly and telling us about Philippines islands. There’s a huge variety of drinks, food, snacks and pantry items. My hot ube latte was warm and cozy. The pandesals were tasty.

One of the best Coffee Shop. The owner is really nice, very friendly and knowledgeable. By the way, the Cheeserole was awesome. Hospitality: 5 out of 5. If you visiting Hawthorne, visit Likha Art Cafe at-least once.

What I like about this cafe is their ube purple latte. Warm and cozy place and friendly owner/staff. They have plenty of goodies to choose from pastries, snacks, drinks and other Filipino foods. I’ll keep coming back for their Hawaiian ube latte.
