Grab a cookie. Arguably the best chocolate chip cookie in the city!
Britt SternOctober 1, 2016
Don't know about the coffee but the currant scone was 👌
Andrew FurmanJune 7, 2015
Not as good as my downtown spots, but if you're looking for something other then Starbucks in midtown, this is it.

Yes, the chocolate chop cookies are that good

Their cookies are like the best thing ever. I tried the cranberry oatmeal. No regrets, except not getting another.
Johanna WhiteJuly 31, 2012
Go before you go- no toilet! Sadly dented my ability to relax and enjoy this charismatic little shop.

Get the figgy sandwich (prosciutto, goat cheese, arugula, and fig spread on baguette) mmm...

Great place to unwind and people watch while drinking an espresso or my favorite, the chai latte.

Baristas cloak their disgust with the mid-town workaday crowds and tourists by blasting music at them. Too loud to think much less order your usual. Leave quickly. That's what they want.

Good coffee. A little noisy when it's crowded, so if you're looking for a quiet place to work, might have to go elsewhere. But if you're looking to grab something on the go, this is a good spot.
Gabriel HayesAugust 28, 2015
Awesome atmosphere here. They play awesome vinyls.
Vanessa RuedaOctober 12, 2014
Hipster and unique place in midtown. Delicious oat and raisins cookies
Sue EllenNovember 4, 2017
Strong coffee; not the best place to do work on your laptop because there are no outlets and no WiFi
Rodrigo ArtaviaOctober 16, 2014
Coffee is good, place is cool, cookies are awesome
JiaNovember 15, 2010
Their regular drip coffee is AMAZING. I think they're currently serving the Papua New Guinea: Mt. Hagen because it's in season.

Obnoxiously loud music, pretentious staff, long lines but hey, the coffee is good so what can you do.
Willem OckhuysenAugust 20, 2014
Best coffee in the area. Cool spot, nice staff.
Evan SmithOctober 7, 2014
I really like their affogato (sp?) and their flat white
에리얼 쌤June 16, 2015

Everyone that works there is presh, and the Kyoto iced coffee is delicious!
Amanda NatividadJuly 8, 2014
The cold brew is intense (if you like that sort of thing).
Derek WilsonJanuary 30, 2014
Flat white AND cortado. Double win. NYC coffee culture is finally growing up!
Lais SchefflerJuly 17, 2015
Chocolate chip cookie is amazing!
Global HighlanderDecember 21, 2011
One of your best bets for excellent coffee in Midtown. About 20 seats inside.
Mayank MahajanFebruary 23, 2019
Awesome chocolate chip cookies, mediocre drip coffee.

More than one option for espresso. The ethiopian is incredible as a shot, but rather weak for a drink.
Gabriel HayesAugust 28, 2015
One of the few places in New York City that has Kyoto Iced Coffee.
Maeve KennedySeptember 20, 2022
Best chocolate chip cookie I’ve had in the city

If you want good coffee you won't find anything nearly as good in a 15 block radius of this place.
Lauren GilchristJuly 27, 2012
Cold brew coffee, home-made cookies, and beards. A little piece of brooklyn in midtown.

Their salad is surprisingly tasty and reasonably priced at $8.

They have Japanese Kyoto iced coffee and the most incredible green tea lemon cookies.
Claudia Dalla TorreAugust 17, 2018
Amazing espresso !
Rachel SheppardSeptember 9, 2014
Great cortado, fast wifi, no bathroom.
Citybeams.comJuly 4, 2012
A great spot to stop for coffee on your way to or from Penn Station.
NishantJune 4, 2014
Flat white :)
Max HigbeeApril 10, 2015
Their latte with the house-made maple added — prime.
Corley StoneNovember 2, 2014
Well made coffee and be sure to get a fresh baked cookie!

Their lunch sandwiches are really tasty! The chipotle chicken on ciabatta is heavenly!
LukeSeptember 7, 2015
Dough donuts! And of course coffee. That's good, too
Gabriel HayesAugust 28, 2015
The baristas do some beautiful coffee art with the foam.
