I had the New Orleans style iced coffee. The flavor is very different than any typical iced coffee. A bit on the sweeter side which I typically avoid but I needed this pick-me-up and it hit the spot!- 5star cold brew at a 5star place. Always super friendly baristas and arguably some of the best cold brew in city. So strong and over-the-top rich, it's truly a treat every time!
Serious EatsApril 21, 2013A New York branch of the famed San Francisco coffee roaster. In addition to the typical coffee options, try the New Orleans-style iced coffee made with chicory.
David WilderFebruary 21, 2017Great service in this small shop tucked away under Rockefeller Center. We talked the barista's ear off about what makes them special for 10mins before finally ordering the New Orleans iced coffee.
StefaniNovember 19, 2014Everything looks amazing. No seats available.Under Rockefeller so no seats during lunch time.Purchased the Three Africans which is just regular coffee but a great taste.
Hannah HanNovember 12, 2014Expect to be lost, this place is tucked in the corner but def worth the search. New orleans cold brew was the perfect afternoon coffee I just needed! Can't wait to try other diff brews on the menu-
Faris IbraheemJune 22, 2016Tucked somewhere in the Rockefeller's basement. Not a sit-in location, but hey you're in Midtown anyway. Coffee is really good though.
Srinivas VasudevanMarch 19, 2015Went there to try their mocha, they had run out of chocolate. Tried their capuchino instead, it tasted really good. There is always a line at this place i guess. Will try their mocha next time.
Jesse AtkinsonAugust 28, 2017Best coffee in this saturated area. Hard to find but worth hunting down to get better-than-Starbucks coffee. This was an oasis for this SF-er.
You'll have enough coffee connoisseurs to advise so let's focus on snacks: the ginger molasses cookie is the way to go! Chewy and super gingery like an Indonesian ginger chew.🍬
Paul BrennerAugust 10, 2014Great freshly roasted bean selection but extremely busy. Great if you already know what you like, but not a great introduction to blue bottle if you don't really know what you like.
Josh SimmonsAugust 8, 2014I will go 2 extra subway stops to get their New Orleans iced coffee. Their maple pecan bars are a new favorite now. Favorite coffee in the city.
Sonny DatoyNovember 3, 2015you know that moment when the barista's face lights up when you start talking to them about beans and brewing methods? every blue bottle is like that -- this one is no exception.- Caroline LeNovember 11, 2014Five words: Best coffee in the world! ...four more words: get the New Orleans. You can't go wrong with any Blue Bottle option though!
Packed with business peeps during the 2pm slump. Tourists go to the nearby Starbucks but locals know this place is the best around. Pour over heaven and the iced New Orleans is pure heaven.
Adrienne SMarch 13, 2012Best thing to happen to midtown coffee ever. Finally an alternative to the ubiquitous sbux!! And OMG the new Orleans iced coffee just changed my life. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
- Nikolay BachiyskiFebruary 3, 2020Both the coffee and the long line are super consistent. Worth the wait if you have few extra minutes.
TALAL ALSAIFJanuary 19, 2019I have visited around 7 specialty coffee shops. This one is the best. We had delicious coffee made by Lizaveta 👍🏼
Kevin DudleyNovember 17, 2014Located in the basement of the building. The mocha is amazing, but be aware that it is nowhere near as sweet as its competitors (which is why it is so good!)
My favorite daily coffee fix. Always go for the single origin pour over. And let’s not forget the amazingly made to order waffles!! 🤤🤤🤤
Delicious, premium coffee in a quaint location. Their cold brew is unreal, especially the New Orleans. Afternoon lines can be semi-annoying
Scott KleinbergFebruary 20, 2017Usually very good coffee here but because this location is so busy it's easy to get the wrong order.
Craig HenryJuly 20, 2015Please don't come in here looking for Starbucks flavors. This is real coffee. Get the New Orleans iced.
Harumi UFebruary 23, 2015Everyone has different preference for coffee but a lot of people seem to like Blue Bottle. Since the place is small, line often goes outside the shop but it is shorter than it looks
Tom MaxwellJune 24, 2017Extremely satisfying to take a break for a delicious latte and killer cherry oat pastry.
Mohamed AlhmoudiSeptember 5, 2019They have really amazing flat white I would drink even 3 littler per day 🤪
Excellent quality every single time! At any time & at any location. I love Blue Bottle
Wandering BaileyNovember 19, 2014Almond milk caffe latte well worth the wait. A good choice amongst the various other coffee dealers in the area.
Good espresso in 30 Rock. Can take a bit, not the best if you in a rush. 10% discount if you work in the building.
Best Coffee in midtown by far; a bit hidden but worth seeking out. Grab a snickerdoodle with your order and don't forget to tip your barista!
Justin McKissickAugust 1, 2016Hard to find! It's underground, beneath the plaza, so don't go looking for it at street level. On the plus side, it was pretty empty.
ILYA SPAugust 17, 2015A petite round maple cookie with nuts is delish. And of course coffee from BB is always great.
Ceramic cups are Italian made ... Equipment Japanese or Italian. Blue Bottle stays true to their roots. Favorite coffee in the area
- Adrienne SMarch 13, 2012Best 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
Matthew HuieJuly 2, 2016This location is tucked away on the concourse level. It's directly south of the ice rink, right under W 49th St.
Seriously one of the most consistent cups of coffee. Try a Giant Steps or a Three Africas pour over, or order a Trafalgar from the secret menu
Nauman NoorNovember 1, 2020Great service though a bit pricey. Guess it is given being in Rockefeller Centre but hey Starbucks is a few bucks cheaper
Craving something different? Get the Gibraltar - extra short latte served in a Gibraltar glass and take 5 minutes to people watch before you go on your way.
All the espresso is excellent, but I almost exclusively get cold brew or cortados here- Conrad Greiner-BechertJanuary 30, 2018Blue Bottle Coffee gets a lot of hype. I wouldn’t go as far as calling myself an enthusiast, but I did enjoy their tea a lot.
Zayed KhanApril 24, 2016Probably less of a line on weekends, than any other blue bottle location in nyc, by virtue of being tucked away in an underground mall/cafe area.- Chad HornerSeptember 9, 2016no seating - some bar space to stand and enjoy your drink - but otherwise has the full slate of typical Blue Bottle offerings
Sylvain LienneMarch 7, 2015It's definitely the best coffee in town for me. It's always good ! And I like the people there.
Their cold brews are great (especially the New Orleans!) but not a fan of their espresso.
Michael Dylan FerraraNovember 26, 2016In the basement of the building. Always a long line, but it moves fast.
