carolynn campbellOctober 19, 2015Hardest place in the world to get to from the upper west side, but I have to admit it's worth the effort. I had a pumpkin coffee, because I'm basic, but they did it perfectly. I'll be back
Amanda MillerJuly 16, 2015Absolutely love this place. I always get the quiche of the day. Great music, great atmosphere, great coffee. What more could you want?
Jeph BurtonAugust 30, 2014No matter how full of regret I am, I always have room for B Cup's eggs on ciabatta. Perfectly seasoned, perfectly sized. And their iced cappuccinos? Heavenly.
Mish and RobMay 17, 2015FRRRR-EEZING! They really like the air-con in this place! It's a nice spot to work from if you happen to be in Alphabet City, but the coffee's a bit lame. Bring a jacket. And scarf. And mittens.
Adam BurrellSeptember 16, 2018Great coffee. Even better vibe. Sit and chill. Great rainy day in the village sit and ponder life spot.
The Corcoran GroupJune 28, 2012Chill, cute and unpretentious coffee shop – eerily similar to the one on Friends. Get a standard Iced Coffee or go a little fancier and get a Double Chocolate Mocha Espresso Freeze.
ᴡ ElliotAugust 26, 2015Surprisingly hard to get work done, but it's good for lunch. The hummus sandwich is best on Rosemary ciabatta
Outlets are in the back, get the wifi pass at the register, couches + chairs + tables. Music is wonderful. There is a neighborhood feeling to the place. Try the chicken sandwich with avocado.
Ms HeleneJuly 1, 2015Soy latte $4.75 for 12 oz. on a sunny corner with couch and benches outside. Friendly spot for locals.
Really nice staff. Not a ton of outlets but you can find some by the back couches, the front counter by the windows and next to the couch in the front.
I love the lattes. They can make them any way you request. Bagels are always fresh.
B Cup CafeMay 18, 2012BCup Cafe is going GREENGet our new travel cups, the first regular ice coffee is on us and from now on every time you'll use this cup with any iced drink of you choice you'll receive 5% off the drink- You must try the sweet Brie cheese sandwich! Good place for working.
New office for me! Good tunes, great vibes and great sandwiches.
Sarah NelsonJune 1, 2013Love this funky cafe. Free wifi and great sandwiches and salads [tuna plus avocado] make this one of my favorite places to work.
Great vibes. A tad pricey, but they do have a loyalty punch-card. Prosciutto wrap is my usual. Mediocre coffee. WiFi is much better now. The key is posted next to the bathroom.
LeonJune 27, 2016Excellent food and coffee, but the WiFi is spotty; I wouldn't rely on it if you need to get real work done
Michael JJune 16, 2014Good atmosphere, but shitty coffee. You can find better environments with better coffee for cheaper. I can heat my own oregon chai & buy the carton for cheaper, too.
Morgan MorrealeFebruary 8, 2017Order an ice coffee to drink in house, it'll come in a cute glass jar.
Grilled chicken sandwich, rosemary ciabatta, eggs whites, and avocado. Trust me. 💯
Dabney DoniganJuly 6, 2014Best chai I've found in the East Village. And some great music selection. Food is overpriced though.
Kayden H.July 27, 2012One of the only decent places in Alphabet City I've found to do work. A little hippie dippie. Bring headphones if you're trying to focus.
Aditi LuthraNovember 25, 2018Cool decor, vegan options, reminds me of the Bean but more local & inspired
Andrew FurmanSeptember 4, 2015Great coffee and plenty of seating to do work at. Including big comfy couches!
The iced coffee is one of my favs in the neighborhood. Try the egg wrap with goat cheese for bfast or post-workout. Remember, it's cash only!- Caroline DengDecember 26, 2015Free wifi password: bcupcafe212. They are on the Cups app too! This is a great study spot for people who like white background noise.

Eliza ChangMay 23, 2015Superb study spot. Food/beverage prices are a little high but the wifi is blazing fast. Cash only!
Rebecca NewmanFebruary 9, 2013Central Perk vibe with awesome music to work to and friendly staff...what's not to love.
Adam SachsMarch 24, 2012Very chill, good coffee and sandwiches. The Israeli baristas are all really nice. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Tara A.April 6, 2013Good wifi, single tables great for work, and awesome salad. Get the double chocolate mocha espresso freeze.- Kristin S.April 21, 2012Loved the avocado sandwich on whole wheat bread. Cute cafe, a couple tables outside for beautiful days like today!
Shanté SmallsMay 22, 2015Well...the chai is good. But $8 for a chai latte and vegan cookie? Ugh. Not the old East Bill, for sure. Skater-boy baristas as redic and the terrible 90s alt-rock needs to go.- MeganAugust 18, 2012The bathroom walls are chalkboards, and there's chalk for you to write with :) So smart and still very pretty!
Israeli breakfast comes with coffee & OJ. So satisfying!
Kimmie OhhDecember 8, 2019On warmer days, get their frozen vanilla & white chocolate café mocha or vanilla espresso freeze.
Urmila SrinivasNovember 18, 2012Amazing music. Great coffee. Funny conversations. Whoopie pies are off the chain.
I love this place but I had to not come as much cause it's way to expensive... $14.40 for two cherry mocha's and a pecan bar? That's crazy.
Dan BedfordJuly 1, 2011Get the tuna sandwich and dip it in the balsamic vinaigrette that comes with the salad. OM NOM NOM
Roxanne SchwartzOctober 20, 2013there are only a few things better than iced coffee served in a carafe. come here and stay a while.
Matthew HurstAugust 17, 2009The hummus plate is large - practically a full meal of its own. Order a plate of veggie goodness, and wash it down with a fresh lemonade on a hot summer day!
Julianna YoungJanuary 11, 2011The avocado sandwich w goat cheese on brown bread is the best sandwich ever. Dip it in the dressing.
