alexandra kOctober 11, 2014Super cute space that gets real busy. Nab a cortado or some cold brew and take it to the park
Russell WionOctober 15, 2016In the morning the triple berry scone. In the afternoon the chocolate chip cookies.
AmandaOctober 26, 2011Get an iced kyoto coffee in the morning and a chocolate chip cookie once they are offered in the afternoon. Deliciousness all around.
Rachel KingMarch 5, 2016According to Gothamist, they also have a solid flat white. http://gothamist.com/2015/11/05/best_coffee_nyc.php
Jamie BreenFebruary 11, 2016Heart coffee. Maybe it was just an off day--I've heard great things but they forgot my order and the espresso was average at best. I've had the same bean served much better before.
David RiordanDecember 15, 2012Best coffee in this part of Midtown. The Kyoto iced is smooth, strong, and flavorful
Best latte in midtown! Feels a bit like Williamsburg in here soy milk available
Paul LomaxSeptember 6, 2013Really great coffee. But try the blood orange iced tea. Very refreshing, and not over sweetened.
Great coffee. Blood orange iced tea is also a good jam. Cookies are awesome. Everyone in here is trying to channel "hipster"
Bosie MoncrieffApril 3, 2017Latte was done excellently. I could not find fault with it in any way. These people clearly care.
Flat white. Dough donuts. Cold brew. Can't really go wrong here.
Know what you want before you order. People behind you in line and the baristas will appreciate it.
Nathan WhitakerJune 21, 2012By far the best espresso on the south side of Midtown West (although this is undoubtedly a low bar).
Samantha TananbaumMarch 9, 2015Warm chocolate chip cookies are amazing & loved adding maple to my iced coffee!
The only decent coffee joint in a five block radius. Red-eye pricing is out of whack, however, at $4!
Lauren GilchristJuly 27, 2012Cold brew coffee, home-made cookies, and beards. A little piece of brooklyn in midtown.
Great cookies and coffee, but hard to ever find a seat. Internet is also spotty.
blood orange iced tea is refreshing in the summer. chocolate chip cookies are to die for!
Chocolate chip cookies somehow manage to beat Levain's.
Aussie coffee in the heart of garment district. Wifi pass is their phone number.
The espresso has this almost citrus-y finish. The chocolate cookies are sinful.
Grab a cookie. Arguably the best chocolate chip cookie in the city!
Sohrab MosJune 9, 2012I had the best Americano I've ever had here. And it was courteously on the house as they were out of drip coffee.
Sumeet ShahFebruary 10, 2014A refreshing and welcoming shop in the middle of a not-so-friendly area of Midtown.
Global HighlanderDecember 21, 2011One of your best bets for excellent coffee in Midtown. About 20 seats inside.
Brad ZickafooseMarch 11, 2012Great place to unwind and people watch while drinking an espresso or my favorite, the chai latte.
That freshly baked chocolate chip cookies killed me from delicious and joy
Tarnima SabedApril 24, 2014If you love Toby's iced latte.. This comes a close 2nd! Excellent iced lattes
