Starry Nites Cafe
is a classy yet funky European Bistro located in the historic flatiron building on ARTWalk in the Neighborhood of the Arts. An alternative to the bar scene offering espresso based coffees and teas with pastries and desserts, or wine and beer with appetizers, with lite menus for lunch and evening. Friday and Saturday evenings may offer acoustic music.

Elegant French Cafe ambiance with warm wooden tones, marble top tables, mosaics, copper ceiling panels, bright and airy bay window in the historic vintage (circa 1888) flatiron building at Atlantic and University.

The Cafe decor was inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's Night Cafe (1888) painting, with many reproductions of his works on display. Eight Van Gogh prints are on display on the premises (three Starry Night paintings, Night Café Scene, The Sower, Irises, Fritillaria, Cypress scene).

The color scheme is gold, rust, and indigo taken from Van Gogh's 1888 'Night Cafe' painting. The menu and decor tie into the arts, and the character and period of the building which include 10" mahogany moldings, paneled doors, tin ceiling tiles, mahogany book cases, marble top tables, natural wood floors, 12 ft ceilings, glass mosaic column, period chandelier and table lamps mixed with modern track lighting.

One wall is dedicated to exhibit work by local artists. The featured Artist's works will change every six weeks. It feels like a European cafe featuring fresh ground coffees, herbal teas and Chai, specialty espresso drinks, smoothies, fine wines and unique beers with a pastry, dessert, or enjoy a light lunch or fresh appetizers.

In the warmer weather you can sit in our European Bistro outdoor café, listening to some jazz or classical music on the ARTWalk 'Piazza' while viewing sculptures, mosaic light poles and artistic benches.
