C. W.January 10, 2012This SRO espresso shop serves the creamiest cappuccino in the city. Be sure to get the olive shortbread if they've made it. Closed on Mondays.
Clay NielsenDecember 12, 2012Small space, great coffee. Not the place to meet a friend or do work. However it is the place to get a perfectly dialed in espresso.
Shanna NevelzNovember 27, 2016New location, but same great flavors. Must have a pour over + olive oil cake!
BappersOctober 31, 2016Excellent coffee! Try the cortado. It's a real "analogue" place as no laptops are allowed.
Real Cheap EatsNovember 5, 2012Moist and prone to minor crumbling, the olive oil cake ($3) harbors a simple and unassertive flavor, like a more flavorful angel cake Read more
JCMay 22, 2012Once again another great latte abraco being a small being a small coffee shop can suprize you with their latte and cappuccino great coffee !
Best Coffee Shop in the World. Best Cold Brew- eat all pastries!
Andrew LitvakNovember 28, 2019Much improved in its new location. Spacious and still the same great coffee.- One of the best little coffee stops I've found in the city. Standing room only.
Alex RobertsonMay 8, 2022Good iced latte but line out the door = 🤦🏻♂️. Diana said the iced americano was definitely a light roast
Quite possibly the best cup of coffee in the city. You really can't go wrong here.
The Local East VillageAugust 11, 2011Christina Tosi calls it the best coffee in the East Village. "I don't care how long the line is. It's worth it every time." Try the olive oil cake too! Read more
John McNallyNovember 23, 2014Hole in the wall coffee shop, had a rich tasty americano with an epic crema 😁
Get a cortado and get here early to beat the rush. It's always busy in the morning
Chris CarellaOctober 26, 2013This is the place most people think about when they think on East Village coffee shops. Try the 'lil eggie' if you are there in the morning.
Emma BMarch 15, 2012European style coffee shop. No seating, small portions, strong (amazing) coffee. Quality > quantity. Also, the baristas are super nice.
Cash only. Beautiful coffee shop, amazing espresso drinks
The eggie brioche sandwiches always change, are always fresh & organic. Olive cookie's salt goes perfectly w/ coffee any time.
LjubicaJanuary 20, 2016Can't get a better coffee and people watching than standing here at the bar table outside of the shop.
Simon LeungSeptember 1, 2015Little coffee shop that seems to outdo all the rest. Best coffee in Manhattan.
Tash ConcepcionNovember 11, 2014Standing room only and even so, a tight squeeze for more than 2 people. Be prepared to have your drink standing outside. In the cold. Also, they don't have any non-coffee drinks on the menu.- Chase RabennMay 30, 2012A simple, well made espresso served by hippies with a slightly greater grasp on reality than most. An EVil must!
Strong and edgy espresso drinks. No seats. Served in the classic greek coffee paper cup.
Really good latte. Get one of their cakes while drinking your coffee.
I ordered a loaf of the olive oil cake 24 hours in advance, and it was ready for me without any problems!
EvanJune 9, 2012Some of my favorite coffee in the city. The Black Olive Shortbread and Olive Oil Cake keep me coming back.
Elie BleierJune 3, 2014Depending on the barista, fantastic espresso. Tiny place. Crazy, tasty pastries.
- Cortado + cured olive cookie = perfect combination of flavors.
Sean WingMarch 14, 2013Stumptown coffee and a slice of their delicious olive oil cake makes my day !
Stephanie KJuly 28, 2013These guys have attitude- take your business to la colombe, where they're nicer and the coffee tastes just as good if not better.
MazdaNovember 15, 2010This place continually serves quality espresso, delicious lattes, and has unique olive oil delicacies such as the olive oil cake.
Thompson HotelsMay 24, 2011Our concierge Meghan at The Thompson LES recommends the black olive cured cookie. The saltiness of the cookie paired with coffee is transcendent.
The best coffee I've had in the city. A number of my friends (and I) are now addicts!- If you're there in the morning before they run out, Get an Eggie, dammit!
Try the iced coffee light & sweet - normally don't like anything in my coffee, but Abraco does it PERFECTLY. Best iced coffee I've ever had in my life.
