β€œCactus Shop has easily become my favorite place in Williamsburg! i hosted my birthday here and the team was incredible! they set the vibes, they were so accommodating and the entire staff was so friendly. Don't forget the drinks, they're all delicious! The bartenders are creating masterpieces and every single drink is mouthwatering. Run don't walk! The decor is also so instagram worthy!”

β€œThe food at The Cactus Shop NYC is absolutely delightful and bursting with authentic flavours! We were a group of four -- two of us are vegan and loved the zucchini and mushroom tacos, while the rest of us had the birria and it was just yummmm! The guacamole and chips were so fresh and delicious too. Highly recommend this spot for anyone craving authentic, flavourful Mexican food. ”

β€œHave you ever been invited to a party by a friend of a friend? You show up with said friend (Jess), wait in line, have a few drinks in the crowded bar. The bar/club is so crowded you actually bump into 2 separate people you know. You chat with them, make some small talk with others, and after about 30 minutes you realize, you are too tired and sober to make the most of that environment. Your friend Jess looks at you, her facial expression indicating she's had the same realization. You decide yall should leave and get a snack. That decision brings you out of the crowded bar/club thing and you head to the closest food option possibly. But, what you don't know is the gold that you have struck on. You're met with a friendly staff and some fancy cocktails with perhaps the best salsa in the city. Maybe hunger is the best sauce or maybe friendship is the best spice. But this place is so good. You both are sitting at the corner seat at the bar in the busiest, loudest city in the world, but you're chit chatting with an old friend over chips and quesadillas and suddenly life feels calm, the world is quiet, and all you focus on is good food drink and friendship Drinks, food, Benito style music. 5/5 stars”
