Wonderful small shop with great employees-stop in for a cappuccino or enjoy a latte at the bar. Pastries are tasty, too! Love their sign outside each day.
During my stay in Chelsea, this was my favorite coffee shop. They sell decent coffee, not the typical American coffee. Nice cozy little place with cool & friendly baristas.
ZAC, Digital AgencyJanuary 16, 2012A wonderfully small and charming coffee shop with free wifi and excellent pulls of Stumptown Coffee. Friendly and passionate staff will match your mood with the perfect drink. Try a smoked vanilla.
Bobby NooromidMarch 4, 2013This spot is great if you're looking for top-notch coffee, tasty pastries, free WiFi, enough outlets (for the small space) and even a chalkboard to draw on. Just note they don't have non-pastry items.
AristipposApril 8, 2013Once you order a tea, the used bag with the tea are kept aside and when the first cup has been drunk, one is free to order a refill, for which the 'old' tea will be re-brewed.
This place is so good I forgot I already wrote a tip (just YESTERDAY)! La Esperanza with almond milk and a Ginger molasses cookie hit the spot post Blossom du Jour (the vegan spot next door).
Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guideMay 3, 2013Ports uses its multi-roaster strategy to attempt to bring their customers the best coffee available at any particular time. Talented baristas will pull you a good shot of the current featured roaster.

Beau LopezApril 8, 2013VERY yummy iced coffee. SoOo smooth. Uses square with a built in rip calculator which you have to consciously press "no tip" which is a super guilt trip. small iced coffee = 3$ even ;(- They have almond milk! And delish coffee w/awesome staff. I had the La Esperanza de Guatemala. Have Erin do a tasting with you :)
They have great iced coffee (haven't tried their espresso yet) but if coffee is not your thing, try any of their iced teas - mint green tea, ruby sipper or Jonathan Adler are all great!
Tami PaulusAugust 16, 2013Wow, a lot of offer is waiting here for the first time visitor. Thanks for the offer and it looks so delicious to me that I want to come here right away.
Best small coffee shop in Chelsea. Great pulls and strong well crafted drinks. Tim is the manager. He's great and the staff are all super friendly and fun.
Leon ChangAugust 18, 2012Iced soy mocha and coconut macaroon make a great afternoon delight. So glad to see an indie coffee shop!
Chris MessinaSeptember 24, 2013What to Order: The hand-bottled “cold-brew latte,” which is made in small batches using dairy milk.
Lisa EDecember 10, 2011French press, cold brew, Stumptown beans, Mast Bros chocolate... It's a little slice of Brooklyn in Chelsea.
best sweets ever. try the peanut butter buscuit and the strawberry jam one. good coffee.
Fantastic coffee and great service without the long lines or porkpie hats over at Stumptown.
Ashish SingalDecember 22, 2013Don't wait in line, just sit and the barista will call you when it's your turn, like a barber shop- Best cookies ever! You must try their raspberry or peanut butter cookies!
my favorite place to caffeinate in the neighborhood. draw something on the chalkboard wall!
Zaarly NYCOctober 10, 2011Great pulls of expresso and have Mast Brothers chocolate bars. Friendly behind the counter as well.
Stumptown coffee, friendly service. get the jam thumbprint cookie!
Best place for coffee in the city. And best baristas.
Premshree PillaiSeptember 10, 2011Friendly baristas who know what to do with Stumptown beans. Small space.
Not only great espresso, but also free cucumber water! :)
- The blood orange iced tea is so good & perfect on a hot day!
