Great all around coffee for when you need an espresso drink and a pour over and a iced coffee in a really small space. Just get whatever you usually get. You will be pleased.
Daniel BairdDecember 6, 2015Try the Espresso - #nom #ethiopian SO shot. Very fruity and a damn respectable shot. Best so far in NY. They weigh each dose for consistent pours. (via @Foodspotting)Upvoted Jan 28
Best coffee around by far. Small with few seats, but a great place to grab a cup to go. If you're looking for a bigger soot, head to their location in the East Village.- Avneesh KohliApril 15, 2018Their iced latte hits the spot on warm days. Grab it to go and enjoy it in Washington Square Park!
- Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guideApril 7, 2013Situated just below Washington Square Park, near NYU, Third Rail is one of our favorite overall shops, pulling consistently good shots of Intelligentsia, Stumptown & occasional guest espressos. Read more
Best latte and espresso around WSP! Only downside is that it's cash only and the cafe is so tiny it's hard to find a place to sit during rush hours!
Ali DagliJuly 30, 2017Two thumbs up - excellent coffee. Pick a cappuccino and go to washington square park to enjoy it.
T SMay 24, 2021A bit hidden and "off the beaten path" café but offers really nice cold brew and cortado
CREATETHE GROUPNovember 22, 2011Best coffee in the neighborhood! Maybe the city, too. The guys there are pretty awesome and they serve good pastries in the morning. Their lattes and iced lattes are to die for! -Erica C
Cash only. Great selection of doughnuts and brekky pastries. Friendly staff - very small interior. Grab a coffee and walk in Washington square park.
The Corcoran GroupJuly 10, 2013The best place to get cheap Stumptown coffee in Greenwich Village. We love the baked goods too!
JoycottJanuary 30, 2014You have some choices when you get coffee here, and one of them is brewed with a chemex. Try it. The flavour is outstanding.
Best coffee in the area. Combine and iced coffee with a falafel on the next block for a great $5 lunch. Go often and the barristas get to know your name and order - isn't that what we all want?
The people who work here are so friendly! Fresh baked goods in the morning, come early to get the ham & cheese croissants. Lattes are the very best as well.
Their drip coffee can be really bitter and bad in the afternoon. I guess they don't keep a fresh pot on hand. Their espresso and service are always great, however!
The Costa Rica Herbatzu [Stumptown], single-origin, Chemex drip coffee is well above average. So is the price, at $3.75 for a 12 ounce cup, freshly ground per order. A 1960s soundtrack was memorable.
scott ...October 22, 2014Grab a Chemex pour over. They have a different selection of four tasty single origin coffees available every day.
Westin Hotels & ResortsApril 18, 2014On a sunny day, get yourself a Cortado, walk over to Washington Square Park and feel the caffeine race through your body.
Katherine ColesFebruary 21, 2016Small but trendy coffee near NYU. Very few seats but perfect for a chat. Great tasting coffee!
Chris MessinaSeptember 24, 2013What to Order: Whatever's being offered from "guest" roasters — although the beans cost more, Ricardo charges the same price so customers are more willing to try them.
William CerfFebruary 12, 2016Nice little place in the Village. I go there a lot because it is close to Judson Memorial Church
Lattes are great. Long lines go fast, but give plenty of time to enjoy the place and run into neighborhood characters from a different era.
Ritch BrandonFebruary 8, 2013Great small coffee place. Nice guys behind the counter. A fee places to sit and hang or work a little. I'll be back!
It's a really tiny coffee shop. The muffins are really good, also the coffee is not bad. People are friendly. It's cash only
Jeffrey KaoDecember 2, 2015The quintessential NYU-student caffeination spot, which is to say that there is always a line-up here.
Roula HannaSeptember 5, 2015Great neighbourhood place that serves good coffee. Very small place. Barely a few places for seating.
I just had THE most perfect soy latte. Creamy perfection. Super friendly service and spot on coffee making.
Patrick BaskinMarch 7, 2016Had the standard drip coffee, tasty cup a joe; small place though if you're looking to work or hangout
- tiny space, good coffee and pastries! (doughnuts from Doughnut Plant)
Third rail prepares cortados that are more on the side of a macchiato. So much so you may consider a cap instead.
Hand-poured drip coffees - they take their time and it shows. Be sure to try it out, it's worth the wait.
These guys make great coffee and there's rarely much of a wait. Everything is the best here.- The seasonal drip brew, Stumptown Costa Rica Gold Mountain, is a winner. Cherry and honey notes ring out.
Benjamin JohanssonAugust 8, 2014I loved this place. Cozy, great cappuccino and croissants. Perfect to hang out.
Amy WuJune 18, 2016Not a lot of seating but also not very crowded. Cozy. The cream cheese blueberry muffin is also so yum.- Their delicious iced coffee is made with Stumptown's Hair Bender - take home a bag of beans while you're there!
Leo MedinaJanuary 20, 2016Open the cap and wait for the coffee to cool down a bit. The coffee is dangerously hot and they don't have hotstoppers. Good Coffee though.
New York HabitatOctober 18, 2011After you get yourself a cup of joe, walk over to the nearby Washington Square Park for some relaxing and people watching.
Stumptown + Intellegencia = solid (yet a bit too cozy) coffee shop :) Great for your morning "to go" cup. Read more
