DwellStudioMay 18, 2012One of our favorite neighborhood coffee shops! Snag a seat on the park bench at the front window and watch the SoHo lifestyle saunter up and down West Broadway.
Marivic GFebruary 8, 2015Love the green tea matcha latte with almond milk. Cozy seating and select pastries to pair with your drink of choice.
Grab a bench and people watch over some of the best espresso in SoHo. Free wifi (password is on a wood block on the counter).
Project Latte: a NYC cafe culture guideJanuary 8, 2012A rare workspace in Soho, populated by fashionistas & tourists--lots of work meetings happen here. There are plugs & sometimes wonky wifi at this Intelligentsia shop. Coffee quality varies. Great food
darnisha bishopApril 5, 2016Good coffee, but VERY crowded. A little overwhelming, so probably best to go early when it first opens.
Joe HolderAugust 7, 2014Solid place with great staff and cozy feel. Need wi-fi? Network and password is written on desk by cashier!- Jessica de OliveiraDecember 8, 2015Great place to meet up with people with the picnic table setup. Lively, but chill enough that it's a great study spot as well
Good coffee and friendly staff. Cool spot in SoHo for hanging out or meetings.
Love this spot! Wooden seating, sandwiches, and very open, well lit. Fun place to meet a friend or just hang
Kartik SJune 14, 2015Fellow Aussies and others who crave proper coffees.. Get your Flat White fix while in SoHo here. Iced Chai is also good.
Cute cafe with delicious coffee, cookies, and sandwiches. There's also a lovely sky-light area in the back and stacks of Nat Geo back issues to flip through. Great spot!
KathJanuary 30, 2015Instead of giant cookies that are super sweet, go across the street for a macaron and bring it here :)
- Love the atmosphere! Amazing food and awesome drinks!
Valerie SecklerMarch 21, 2012Woody environs complement the solid cup of Intelligentsia Ground Support dark roast. Benches, tree-stump and wood-trunk tables dot the cafe, with stacks of Nat Geos nearby. (Orig. review 11/28/12.)
Mia KattNovember 2, 2017If you're willing to deal with the surly, too cool attitude, then the coffee's worth it. Grrr
The Corcoran GroupJuly 10, 2013A great place to stop in to take a shopping break and grab a coffee in SoHo. We love the prosciutto sandwich.
Iced Matcha tea is well worth the 5 bucks. Get one for the walk back to the office and one for sipping at your desk.
Claudia ColonnaApril 28, 2015Love the raw bars they sell and they make a tasty almond milk cappuccino - super cute mini outdoor alcove area
Untapped CitiesJuly 15, 2013This Soho shop is often busy, yet relaxed. A friendly place to stop by for lunch and coffee. Read more
ROctober 13, 2013Great spot to take a break. The benches in front are perfect in the afternoon, just a little bit of sun. Good coffee too.
Giulia PratiDecember 2, 2014They have matcha green tea! And almond milk! And agave syrup, all pretty hard to find in standard coffee shops
TiffanyNovember 19, 2015Cute soho coffee shop but gets extremely crowded throughout the day. Don't expect to get a seat, but do get a coffee and a sandwich to go!
SKWOctober 21, 2015Best coffee shop in SoHo. ☕️ BIG fan of their prosciutto sandwich with strawberry rhubarb jam.- Valerie SecklerNovember 29, 2011The woody environs of Ground Support complement the solid cup of coffee the SoHo shop serves. Benches, tree stumps, and a wood- trunk-as-table mark the front room, along with stacks of Nat Geos.
Maisoon MaJuly 14, 2018Ginger cookie was fabulous! I tried the mocha it was delicious loved everything here- Lauren SmithJanuary 9, 2015Surprisingly yummy and filling salad. But then there's the prosciutto sandwich...
Cortado is good and strong. Small cappuccino is great for Aussies looking for a decent 'flat white'
Drip coffee is great, and their sandwiches and espresso drinks are also excellent.
PJ DillonOctober 2, 2014Holy sweetened almond milk, batman! ...I'll add sugar if I want it, thank you. But impressive latte art for almond milk.
BrianJune 24, 2015Great stock coffee shop. Not a destination, but if you're in the neighbourhood then it's perfectly fine
Ranjan RoySeptember 3, 2014Go to soho spot for wifi and good coffee. Note: the wifi works way better in the back area.
Great relaxed spot in Soho for delicious coffee and sandwiches. Plenty of space to sit, and there's no minimum for credit card purchases!
Andrew ChoiNovember 8, 2013Here for the first time & tried an americano. Taste was pretty bland to me, but I'd be willing to try their iced concoctions once it's warmer out again. Cute bench and table seating inside though!
DianaAugust 31, 2013Love the atmosphere, layout, and natural light on this cafe. It'd be a perfect place to work if the wifi didn't suck. Please fix that?
GNTLMNJanuary 22, 2013A wonderful place to meet creative and interesting people. Always packed, good treat, so-so wi-fi on really busy days.
Just passed by. Wanna tried because lots of people here. Like their iced coffee. Nice and modern decoration. Will try other drinks next time.
Rodrigo ArtaviaOctober 14, 2014Coffee, service and cookies are great. But the place is small and super crowded, I guess is a good signal for its quality
Ken AndersenJune 19, 2014Sandwiches are great. They're premade and ready to go, or you can stay and enjoy the picnic tables inside.
Yera HaSeptember 2, 2014Cool, airy space with plenty of seating if you're trying to take your time to enjoy your coffee.
Great place to sit for a while. Come for the Intelligensia coffee and stay for the benches and long tables.
The salad is really good! Would never have expected at this place, but stumbled upon via Foursquare Explore
