Cafe Clementine

This is my favorite lunch place in the area. I have been getting lunch here since 2007, when it was Café Columbine on West Broadway. Every single item on the menu is excellent. I'm so happy they have reopened in this new place. Yay!

Cafe Clementine makes you feel good about not being responsible enough to pack a lunch. No worries, they've got it covered. Simply the best! Try the chocolate cherry cookie, it's perfect.

I came by for the first time today and it was incredibly busy which influenced my order being misunderstood. I decided to come back later on when it was quiet to share feedback, and every person was incredibly helpful and understanding. I’m giving five stars because I’m impressed with the friendly resolution process that will most certainly get me to come back again!

Outrageous price, chicken is super dry and sauce has no flavor. Literal airport food 1/10

Such sweet people, and excellent strong coffee! They brewed it fresh. It’s a small lovely cafe. Regretted not getting their cookies too since it looked so tasty. Will def come back when I’m in the area again

This used to be my go to lunch place pre-pandemic, and I was so sad to see it closed. But it was worth the wait. Three years later, they are back and running again! The chicken salad sandwich was just as wonderful as I remember it to be, and my taste buds are more than satisfied. Simple, high quality, nutritious food, hands down!

Update: 11/4/23 The veggie sandwich really ROCKS, as well as the cookies (ginger, oatmeal, chocolate cherry)! The smoked chicken side is a wonderful low-carb option. One comment about the Cold Buster Chicken Soup: We were surprised to find the soup is SUPER SPICY (broth is light red colored from the hot sauce). Pieces of chicken were delicious. We had to add a LOT of water to the soup to be able to eat it. Orig. review: Finally, after 3 years Cafe Clementine has arrived.Thank you! We were excited to try it out today and everything was delicious. First, love that they offer soup/salad/sandwiches combos! We ordered the combo ofsandwich and salad (tip: you need to specify that you want the hot or the cold daily special sandwich. We got the beef sandwich with cheese and jalapenos and generous with veggies salad and they were a hit with my husband. We ordered the daily special chicken salad sandwich, too, (had bacon and tarragon) and the chicken was super flavorful and tender, too. Also, got a side of smoked chicken salad (served on large piece of romaine), which makes a wonderful low carb option. Dessert: Couldn't pass up the ginger cookie after trying a sample (wonderful flavor and texture) and an oatmeal cookie for my hubby (haven't tried it yet, but it looked like a good one). Says on website that you can order delivery, but didn't see the option to do so yet. Anyway, thanks so much for a memorable meal. We are grateful you opened your doors for business!

I love coming here on my breaks at work! The staff is incredibly sweet & kind. Their sandwiches are super yummy. So happy they came to Tribeca:)

Cafe Clementine left its location on West Broadway and moved to Greenwich and Duane (read "moved much closer to me"). Clementine has been around for over 25 years, but this new location is bright and inviting, and is a much-needed addition as a lunch option in the area. Expect lines at lunchtime--the risk of being to close to Citibank's headquarters. The menu is updated daily on their web site (cafeclementine.com/specials/). They won't steer you the wrong way with their soup, salad and sandwich offerings. I had one of the best lentil soups just last week, and was left wondering -- when will it be back on the rotation as a menu item? For good or bad, you will have to live with not knowing what they have for the day until the morning of. All said, an excellent new edition of an old Tribeca favorite. If you like the surprise element of discovering their specials for the day, there is no better place in the neighborhood to get lunch. Or maybe a very early dinner.

I go here every week for their daily soup and it's DELICIOUS! They have vegan options. Everything feels like a home cooked meal from your grandma or mom with so much love in everything they make! Def a favorite of mine :)

I'm so glad that Cafe Clementine reopened. I used to get the lemon Bundt cake all the time. It is truly amazing and much better than the Starbucks lemon icing cake, which tastes fake to me. I don't know why people think the Starbucks lemon cake is so great. Maybe they've never tasted the lemon pound cake at cafe clementine, which has real lemon flavor. I was disappointed to find out that they didn't bake enough lemon cake this week or I would have gone over there for cake today. I recall the salads and sandwiches here to be great too.

Cafe Clementine has great soups but is very poorly run. They made the decision to get rid of their best soup - Lonestar Chicken in order to save on costs. What they don't realize is people are not going there to spend $23 on a small salad and gazpacho! Bring back Lonestar ASAP, there were a lot of people very upset about this. PS - I work for the biggest employer in the area and people are going to stop going there.

Cafe Clementine, which has been a cornerstone (where the old Cornerstone was at until 2017) has breathed new life to this beautiful location. Taken over by three employees who have been through the thick and thin with this business, they are reintroducing a newer version of the old Clementine with guidance from the previous owner. Expect daily specials like homemade soup, hearty sandwiches, their famous cookies (a bit pricey at $4.50 each) and simple yet fresh salads and sides for a light bite. The corner space is equipped with a counter and four chairs for eating on the spot. Staff is friendly and most important, everything is cooked with heart and dedication. Please continue to support a local business.

Solid neighborhood eatery and sandwich shoppe. Fairly priced and I felt as though the food was solid. Only recommendation would be to get fresher bread.

Great lunch spot! Delicious sandwiches, soups and the cookies are amazing!! There are many specials everyday.

Malibu Veg sandwich is one of the most delicious sandwiches I've ever had in Tribeca. So savory, yet so absolutely light
