Awesome little underground coffee shop. You might walk right past it, but you'd definitely be missing out!
With brick walls and a tin ceiling, this spot is a comfortably homey atmosphere for lunch, excellent coffee and pastries.
Great European café to sit and relax in the morning with a latte and an apple torte. For lunch, try the Grilled Chicken sandwich.
Finally a great coffee place north of Columbia campus - this is infinitely better than joe's!
Seats about 25 people, nice-looking dark wood and interior design, w/ plugs & wifi. They use 49th Parallel from Vancouver, although the espresso needs work. Drip coffee is pretty good.
The BEST! Love everything about this place- decor, food, service. The octopus is amazing (try the carpaccio!) Excellent wines. Seriously, everything is so good! Thank u for opening in East Harlem!!!
The Hungarian Pastry Shop has been meeting place for students and uptown writers since the 70s. This shop is the perfect place to pair a cup of coffee with a succulent old-world pastry.
The tips about the croissants are absolutely correct. Personal favourite: almond croissant.
Boricua owned business that offers coffee, pastries, art and community events. You can bring a laptop and work on your projects. It's a good escape for students, independent workers and entrepreneurs.
Excellent coffee, cool space, cool music and free wi fi. A good spot to start the day...
Best cup'a around. Always good indie rock playing. -Seth Caro, Top Chef Just Desserts
Great spot-- no WiFi, just great hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, & an amazing coffee selection. Gem in the area.
It's always a surprise which flavored coffees they'll have out when you go in. But they're always amazing and I'm never disappointed. Best coffee on the uws.
The only modern coffee shop for blocks, Rex is a godsend to Hells Kitchen, serving up Counter Culture coffee, pressed sandwiches, and housemade baked goods to nearby workers and far west side denizens Read more.
Great snacks that accompany your drinks: mixed nuts, smokehouse almonds, and fried olives. Ask behind the bar for Kendall: she's sharp, fast, and speaks fluent French.

Best coffee in the neighborhood, and the owners & staff are super nice. Who needs Starbucks??
This place is great. Wifi is light speed and you can work here - tables and lots of them. Starbucks beware!
Try the oatmeal! Steal cup oats... They are really good and better than the fake just add hot water stuff the other places sell.
One of my favorite places to get coffee in the city! Amazing selection of beans as well!
Great coffee and Danny really has a passion for his craft. This new(ish) Espresso Bar is in the old Artichoke cafe space, but the focus on coffee has made this a must stop on my way to work.
Pop by in the morning, get a cappuccino. Pop by at night, indulge in honey/lavender macarons!
They travel worldwide because they are committed to sourcing and roasting the best coffees available anywhere.
Go to Grumpy and leave happy with a Clover brewed single origin coffee or synesso produced espresso
Wonderful giant place with a friendly staff and great atmosphere. It's like a chill lounge cafe joint. LOVE their cappuccinos : )
Owner Ken Nye is often credited as the first person to bring serious coffee to New York City in 2001.
Best thing to happen to midtown coffee ever. Finally an alternative to the ubiquitous sbux!! Their iced coffees are esp good. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more.
Solid new spot in Greenwich Village. The line tends to get a bit crowded in the mornings, but the staff is friendly, very attentive, and the latte is solid.
Great place to sneak an iced coffee and a mini peanut butter and jelly sandwich (on baguette no less) while you're walking around Soho. Also a good place to chill and do some work on the long benches.
Killer espresso drinks AND the building was part of the Underground Railroad - caffeine with a side of history!
Pretend like you're serious about buying a surfboard. Take it off the rack. Place it on the floor. Remove your shoes. Hang-10. Then order a latte and walk out.
The stumptown cold brew coffee takes 1 drop per second to create, has a beautiful floral citrus finish. Must try!
Baristas blend single-origin, just-roasted beans to order, even for a single cup.
Seems to be a nice little spot to grab a quick bite, whether dining in or taking it to go. Because of it's location, if you're dining in and manage to get a window seat...ppl watching might be fun.
Coffee with a conscience; Laughing Man Worldwide gives 100% of the profits it receives from ventures to charity.
The Genoa salami sandwich is a good one to try. Generous with the salami, wide choice of spreads. I like the pesto mayo.
This Australian shop serves up probably the highest quality espresso and brewed coffee drinks in the neighborhood.
