About Headrest Coffee
Headrest Coffee is an immigrant-owned specialty coffee shop on Irving Avenue in Bushwick, founded in August 2020 during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic by owners with over a decade of experience in the coffee industry. What began as a bold bet during uncertain times has grown into one of Bushwick's most beloved neighborhood cafes, earning a devoted following for its plant-filled atmosphere and thoughtfully crafted drinks. The interior is frequently described as an oasis in the middle of Bushwick: a small, intimate space overflowing with lush greenery that gives it an almost tropical, greenhouse-like quality. The abundant plant life, natural light, and warm ambiance create a calm retreat from the energy of the surrounding neighborhood, making it an ideal spot for a quiet coffee or catch-up with a friend. Headrest serves handcrafted third-wave espresso beverages and drafted cold brew alongside a rotating "Fancy menu" of creative seasonal drinks that showcases the team's inventiveness. Every drink receives carefully poured latte art, reflecting the baristas' commitment to craft. The cafe proudly serves all Dona products for its chai and tea program. The food menu leans vegan, featuring vegan donuts sourced from Duh Donuts, bagel sandwiches with options like vegan cheese and tempeh bacon, and in-house baked pastries and small bites, making Headrest one of the most plant-forward coffee shops in the area. Headrest Coffee has been featured in the Dona Cafe Spotlight series and on Nooklyn, and continues to draw a loyal crowd of regulars who appreciate its intimate scale, creative drinks, and commitment to a welcoming, plant-filled environment.
