Nate SApril 2, 2017Sacrilegious to say this, but: skip this place. Used to be Mecca, but so many new/better places around here now. This place is for tourists and San Francisco transplants. Better coffee shops in Wburg
Delicious hot chocolate using mast brothers. Get the New Orleans iced in summer. Great decaf drip.
Anna OhareAugust 19, 2014Not over rated. Iced latte is just perfection. Only downside is there is only one bathroom, so be prepared to wait!
The coffee is great, of course, but the hidden gem is the Snickerdoodle cookie. With saffron and Tahitian vanilla, it is literally my favorite cookie of ALL TIME.
Untapped CitiesJanuary 17, 2014This California coffee company emphasizes small batch brewing techniques. Check out the Kyoto-style Oji cold press coffee makers! Read more
For those of you into people watching, this stop is a 💯🔥 for your weekends adventure.
Some of the best coffee around. Their tea isn't half bad either.
Try the "New Orleans" iced coffee or the mysterious SG-120. Also, the s'mores at frigging awesome!
Gabrielle LaneSeptember 13, 2014one of the best hot chocolate I've ever had ! not too sweet, thick, mellow with a great cocoa taste
CompassJuly 24, 2013Coffee at Blue Bottle takes five minutes to brew, but it coffee lovers know it’s well worth the wait.
John ShrimpMarch 17, 2018Our North 4th Street cafe is on the bottom floor of a 1930s industrial building transformed into residential lofts.
Humayun RashidSeptember 8, 2014These guys blend the perfect mix of milk and coffee for the New Orleans. Amazing coffee.

Village VoiceNovember 14, 2011Winner of Best Makeover in the Village Voice 2011 Best Of issue! The snickerdoodle with saffron takes a standby and makes it divine.
David GuerrieriJanuary 17, 2017Kind of an odd setup but their coffee is great and their pour over herbal tea is very tasty.
Olivia SzetoSeptember 16, 2013New Orleans iced coffee for the sweet tooths. Add a bit of soymilk & you've got the perfect mix ;)
Logan SlaughterSeptember 20, 2012BEST GRANOLA and served in a unique mason jar you keep--also, the BEST ICED COFFEE--the New Orleans!- Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guideMay 8, 2013One of the better cafe hot chocolates can be found at the original Williamsburg Blue Bottle Coffee. Read more
John McNallyNovember 19, 2014Lovely Americano, chewy cookies and friendly staff. Nice place to warm up in.
Sofia UzJune 29, 2015Well, blue bottle is always good. If you can squeeze your way through a thick layer of hipsters
All drinks are great - pretty weak on the pastry and snack game. But none the less, coffee is +
If you're a cold brew fan, ask for a New Orleans. You're welcome.
Sarah AhmadSeptember 9, 2012Best. Coffee. Ever. Try the chicory iced coffeeAnd expect a (long) wait on the weekends.
Great coffee, friendly baristas, but it's not cheap and there's no wifi.
Design*SpongeMarch 25, 2011Strongest coffee I've had since we visited the SF Blue Bottle years ago. If you need a pick me up in a great location, this is it.
jacob robbinsJuly 26, 2014The lines are shorter today as they are pulling thinner longer shots. It's not as tasty but has just as much caffeine if not more.- Andrew ContiDecember 29, 2014Get the New Orleans cold brew coffee. It's best ice coffee in the city.
Grace LeeApril 6, 2016The coffee is, of course, delicious, but this place has the worst tables (wobbly and on wheels), no wifi, and is crawling with tourists. Do not recommend for working.
Bec WeeksJune 9, 2013New Orleans style iced coffee with soy milk + ginger molasses cookie = perfect Sunday treat.
Menachem GanczJanuary 9, 2016I've had some good coffee in other Blue Bottle locations, but I really disliked the coffee in this one
Nadia ArkhipovaJanuary 28, 2015Good coffee, very friendly staff. Definitely a spot for people watching.
Mario PabonFebruary 6, 2017Their mochas be poppin. Green tea is poppin. Drip coffee is also poppin'.
