    Excellent coffee. Ask for their feature espresso. The truck in the courtyard is fun if the weather is nice. The bar inside the lobby is full of charm. They do have typewriters if you feel like writing

    Excellent coffee. The flat white is a strong challenger for best in Manhattan. Head into the hotel rather than relying just on the truck in the front. Enjoy the quieter atmosphere in the back garden.

    Quaint coffeeshop in the back of the Highline Hotel. Come here to take a break from gallery hopping. Nice and cool during the summer and warm during the winters.

    My favorite roaster I enjoyed in Chicago now in nyc. Luxurious location in High Line hotel. Smooth flavorful coffee created by pour over artists. Definitely a nice place to sip your cup of Joe.

    One of the more unique places you'll come across. It's a courtyard infront of the High Line Hotel with a double decker bus that has been converted into a coffee shop. Coffee & pastries are pretty good

    Tucked away in a cozy hotel lobby Intelligentsia serves exceptional coffee. Drink up on one of the comfy couches inside or head out the back to catch up with friends in the hotel's airy courtyard.

    Great outdoor seating in the front where the coffee truck is. You can also get drinks at the lobby & take it to the back garden which is more chill. Both serves fantastic espresso drinks.

    The perfect spot to caffeinate before or after gallery hopping in Chelsea. Sit outside on their gravel patio and soak up the sun if it's warm enough outside!

    Enjoy the courtyard and coffee from the green truck while the weather is nice out. The truck has a select menu while the full menu is inside the hotel.

    This place in the lobby of the High Line Hotel is great! They used to be one and the same as Kilogram Teas so you know their coffee and tea is top notch!

    The first New York location of the celebrated roaster, with pastries worth the trip alone. Located in the High Line hotel.

    Super cozy little cove hidden in a very interesting hotel. Try the Spiced Chai Cider on a cold and rainy day, hits that spot so right.
