You can't go wrong with Plowshares Coffee. They roast their own beans to perfection. Whether you go with tea, espresso, or pour over you won't be disappointed. Great selection of baked goods.

Wow, that's an outstanding spot. Diverse delish coffee beans, smooth and tasty cortado. Try nitro if you like cold brew. And this pecan caramel thing! Jeez, the best sweet I've had in NY.

Perfect atmosphere if you need to do some work outside home - the staff is very friendly and will give you the WiFi password if you ask. And they have plugs and the best playlist !

Croissants are freshly made, totally recommended. The staff is kind, nice and fast. Our new favorite place in the neighborhood.

The banana bread is incredible. Moist, flavorful, not too sweet (and half off before they close). Perfect with the chai tea.

Awesome cold brew coffee. Also, not much seating, but the bench out front is great.

Strong coffee prepared quickly with great pastries, including my favorite -- peanut butter cookies.

New place on the uws. Has Wi-Fi. Small. Communal table. Good for work. Coffee is strictly okay. (Joe's or even Westside coffee is better!)

This place plays amazing (classic rock) music and has tasty cheapish coffee.

Great almond croissant. Iced coffee is also great. Nitro brew is cool

Their iced earl grey is a nice change of pace from Starbucks.

I get my bagel from Absolute, then come here for my coffee. The service is pretty clueless, but the coffee is great.

Pastries are excellent (from outside bakeries and doughnutteries).

Casual coffee shop, delicious and relaxing
Andrea LJanuary 23, 2017
They don't have soymilk and their lattes are subpar. Croissants are good but there's many other places in the area that sell good ones too.
Joyce ZhaoMarch 25, 2015
Super cute place. It would be perfect if they have wifi.
