Delicious food and coffee in a beautifully designed space! I ordered the salmon and egg toast -- honestly one of the best I've ever tasted. Full of flavor, yet light enough to leave room for some sweet pastries. The chef, Leah, is super friendly and passionate about the menu. Service was quick. Will definitely be back the next time I'm in Brooklyn

Absolutely love Falu House! It’s hands-down serving the best coffee in the city. Smooth, rich, and expertly brewed—every cup is perfection. The Scandinavian vibes are cozy and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax or catch up on work. Their pastries are next-level—think buttery cardamom buns, flaky cinnamon rolls, and delicate almond treats that taste just like something you'd find in Copenhagen or Stockholm. You can really tell they focus on quality and authenticity. Whether you're a coffee aficionado or just looking for a unique café experience, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend for anyone searching for top-tier coffee and Scandinavian pastries in NYC!

Usually, a cafe connected with a store might not be good.. BUT they r great and unique! Nice space to stay for a while, interesting drinks and housemade pastry. The only thing to murmur is that prices are slightly high. Cardamom latte was flavorful. It was super creamy and foamed. A little too-much buttery but I liked the saltiness. The Swedish cookie looked too colorful but it was delicious. Highly recommended. Raspberry jam inside covered with marzipan on the top. Sweet but rich and tasty. Cardamom bun I got the other day was great as well. It was moist and soft, a won’t-go-wrong option.

Great coffee and strong. The Swedish cinnamon bun was basically a religious experience. It came out warm (maybe I got lucky with a fresh oven batch) and was a perfect fluffy, sweet and doughy bun for breakfast / coffee. I also came here for the Finnish salmon soup - it’s huge and delicious. My book club meets here once a month so I basically get to go regularly and have enjoyed it each time!

Excellent service! The barista made my matcha with extra care and made sure it was to my liking. My friend and I split a cardamom bun, which was divine. I would love to come back to try more of the food sometime. The cafe is in the furniture store (teak) so the interior was very cute and decorated well. I wish there were more places to sit in the cafe portion of the shop, but that’s my only complaint (which isn’t really a complaint).

Falu House is one of my go-to spots for a calm coffee moment in Williamsburg. I’ve tried the regular latte, almond latte, and matcha latte with almond milk—and each one has been consistently delicious. The space has that clean, minimal Scandinavian feel that instantly slows you down in the best way. I especially appreciate when the drinks are served in porcelain cups; it adds such a thoughtful, intentional touch to the experience. A few visits included paper cups, so just wanted to say how much I love the ceramic ones—they really match the peaceful vibe of the café. Beautiful space, great coffee, and a lovely break from the noise of the city.

Cardamom is my favorite spice so I’ll jump at every opportunity to try out a new cardamom spot. The buns here are definitely the best I have had in the city! You know I ordered a whitefish sandwich expecting a basic white fish sandwich, the kind you get at a bagel place but wow… not here! A truly incredible well done sandwich complete with lingonberry jam which paired really well with the fish! Who knew! A delightful culinary experience in a unique space. The workers are also especially nice

Cool Scandinavian house and homewares and furniture store with a little cafe. We tried the curry chicken sandwich and the whitefish sandwich. They were a bit bland, but pleasant enough. The make a nice cup of chai. The store has a lot of cool stuff to look at and buy. Great gift ideas.
