This is the best cafe in Harlem! Not only because their amazing coffee, but mainly because of the people that are so kind, respectful, friendly and always smiling at us :) Plus it's unique vibe!
Valerie SApril 30, 2016Hipster heaven! Super friendly staff and good coffee. Lots of people working on laptops. Don't miss the garden out back-- lots of seats and very relaxing vibe.
ℳ𝒶𝓎♍August 30, 2018A beacon of hope for those searching for relaxation and a quality cup of coffee in Hamilton Heights. It's very cozy here. The back patio is more spacious and has an abandoned garden vibe in a good way
Andrea PlaskoFebruary 16, 2015Cute place to work, very hip and trendy for the neighborhood. Great selection of coffee and a small (but good!) selection of little bites. If you stay, coffee is served in China cups :-)
Great standard fare in the mornings: cappuccino, bagel with cream cheese, ham and cheese croissant. Wifi works pretty fast and the music selection is always great.
Kelsey MezrahiJune 11, 2016Dirty chai is bomb! They're a little stingy on giving out wifi codes, but the drinks are great and there's a lovely outdoor garden. I just wish they had make food options.
- New York HabitatFebruary 27, 2014A great authentic neighborhood expresso bar known for its lattes and fresh pastries! Free Wi-Fi is also available if you want to do some work while sipping on some delicious coffee!
Globetrottergirls DaniJuly 3, 2015Great coffeeshop to work at in Washington Heights. Wifi is limited to two hours though (you get a code with each purchase)
Best coffee place in Hamilton Hts. Comfortable place to work (Mac users just thrive here) + back patio is a must sit-out place on a cool day. Downside, Internet times out every 2 hours. Replenish ;)..
The Dirty Belgian is a must have! Its rich and creamy, and simply amazing! I live right down the street from this soot and I can't believe this is the first time ive seen it.
Douglas EllimanJuly 23, 2014A much needed addition to Harlem. This coffee shop serves savory cups of coffee and tea. We love coming here to sit back on our laptops and take advantage of the free Wi-Fi!
Francesco SerraJuly 21, 2016Sit back in the backyard , Relax and have your ice latte with chocolate. I love this place!- Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guideAugust 29, 2014A beautiful basement level spot w/ gorgeous design touches in Hamilton Heights, a coffee desert unrelieved by even a Starbucks. Counter Culture coffee, wifi, plugs, and a garden. Read more
- Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guideDecember 12, 2012Bringing cafe culture to Hamilton Heights, this multi-culti spot with gorgeous design touches uses Counter Culture coffee, has wifi and plugs and a custom baby blue La Marzocco espresso machine. Read more
Untapped CitiesJuly 15, 2013A rare Harlem coffee shop, The Chipped Cup's repurposed furniture and cute garden make it a worthy and charming addition to this Untapped list. Read more
A coffee oasis in this neighborhood. They have lovely outdoor seating, wifi, great bagels/pastries, and excellent coffee. Great spot to work or just hang out.- Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guideNovember 13, 2012A beautiful basement level spot w/ gorgeous design touches in Hamilton Heights, a coffee desert unrelieved by even a Starbucks. Counter Culture coffee, wifi, and soon-to-come outdoor space. Read more
- L. T.June 30, 2016Love this place. Busy but not loud, fantastic coffee, good seating, outdoor space, great baked goods! A bit pricey, but worth it for a treat.
Pretty good coffee (Culture Espresso), sweet back yard. Remember to ask for a wifi code with your purchase (it lasts 2 hours). Location is below street-level, so don't expect sunny views.- Rozanne ElsNovember 8, 2017Great pastries and a good place to work. Coffee is good, but not the best in the area. Wonderful to sit in the back garden on warmer days!
Harlem AmbassadorMay 12, 2013A "hipster with a laptop" paradise. An underground den that gives you a garden with cafe and the comfort morsels to accompany that gourmet coffee. Everyone comes for open mic. Why aren't there more?
L ErskineOctober 24, 2015Part of a partnership between brokers and landlords to raise housing prices in Harlem to Dumbo levels.- Robyn GrierApril 25, 2015Good tea selection (plus free rebrews), bagel with chicken salad was yummy, outdoor seating completely occupied with people working on laptops
The Chipped Cup is cozy but, there aren't any food options besides bagels. The Belgian Hot Chocolate is great. Also, after 2 hours of free Wi-Fi they force you to buy something else for more Wi-Fi :/
Great vibe, good combination of tables, bench, and a couch. Spotty wifi and an unfortunate selection of music that is played a bit too loud at times are the only drawbacks.- Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guideOctober 16, 2013The garden at this Hamilton Heights spot is as great looking as everything else here. Good Counter Culture Coffee but seriously turgid wifi with their new WebBeams system.
Perla AbreuJuly 19, 2016Beautiful place with excellent coffee and very relax space excellent for reading
Liza FerreiraMay 19, 2013Perfect for grabbing a quick bagel and mocha or the ham & cheese crossiant. It was all delish but If your looking for a full breakfast go elsewhere. $$
Tiffany LangstonFebruary 12, 2016A great place to set up shop. Free wifi for customers and great coffee and treats to keep you fueled all day
Great coffee and bagels, chilled quiet vibe with most people working on laptops. Music selection is also A+
Very cute place. Great coffee. Free wifi. You can hang out on the couch or on the back patio. Also the almond cookies are amazing.
The best cafe uptown! Always super packed on weekends, but amazing coffee and treats, and a really friendly staff.
jillian dinoJune 18, 2013Absolutely worth stopping by if you are in the neighborhood. The staff was very friendly, the coffee was delicious and the outdoor space is lovely.
Opening day - woo hoo; staff (Andrew & Karen) and offerings (china black tea and cream cheese brownie) are awesome - this is a welcome addition to our 'hood!
Anna RobertsFebruary 28, 2016Comfy couches, delicious coffee and pastries. Outdoor seating in the spring and summer!
great cafe, definitely a hidden gem in this neighborhood. Lots of seating, great free wifi, good drinks!
They now have jumbo cups. Just what I needed. Now, I don't have to get off my fat @ss for that second cup. I can't think of better place to veg.. I mean work. Tee hee
Heike BachmannJuly 14, 2013The outdoor patio is open and a beautiful idyllic retreat with your cup of coffee .. in the not so chipped cup ;-)
Meredith PetersonDecember 6, 2012Not a place to go if you're hungry, but they've got very decent coffee and a cool vibe. Love the couches set up by the window.
Alexandria PerryAugust 7, 2012Awesome little underground coffee shop. You might walk right past it, but you'd definitely be missing out!
Marnie KunzAugust 3, 2013The whiskey cupcakes are awesome and the garden is really cute and usually not crowded.
Daniela A.June 12, 2013A summer favorite coconut oolong tea with some type of milk (like soy or almond)!!! Yum-o!
Good espresso drinks. Free wifi with purchases. Good place to do some work.
Michael TaylorMay 8, 2014Total gem of a coffee shop,right on Broadway! Look down or you might miss it!
Katia KorolAugust 29, 2016Very good quality coffee, nice atmosphere and outfit! But people seems to busy...
Derek TerrellSeptember 5, 2013Good vibes and always get the dirty Belgian. Can get crowded at times but good for area.
Awesome place! Only downside is the horrible hipster music that drones on and on.
