The Corcoran GroupAugust 19, 2013One of our favorite spots to grab some solid coffee when we're in TriBeCa. Hugh Jackman owns this joint, plus all profits go to charity, which makes us even more apt to go here.
Paige CJune 25, 2018I love their little turf area outside. The shop gets so crowded on weekends (it’s also super tiny) but the coffee was good!
Latte CAT score - 7/9: Cup 1, Art 3, Taste 3. The cat is in latte heavens but surprised for the lack of porcelain cups not even mentioning spoons and saucers. Meeeow! 🐈
Date Night Is...April 30, 2013Looking to grab a coffee before wandering the West Side Highway for a springtime Date Night? You can't beat this place for a quick grab 'n go. It's a little pricy, but their coffee is dee-lish!
Kaitlyn RocheSeptember 12, 2017Favorite coffee shop in Manhattan for an americano. All profits go to charity. Love the outdoor green space.
Kaitlin YapchaianOctober 29, 2019A little outpost with outdoor seating. Good coffee as well as more experimental specials like honey lavender latte, sea salt latte, cinnamon vanilla matcha, and more. Bakery snacks, too. + Friendly!
Stellar coffee. Flat white is transcendently wonderful. Small, intimate shop adds to the atmosphere. A must try and a blessing for me that it's so close...
Marie La RueAugust 7, 2021Tiny place perfect to grab a coffee to go. Busy with plenty of outdoor seating on the weekend. Service was efficient. Loved reading mission statement as all profits go to charity.
Sharon ManFebruary 18, 2015I enjoyed the flat white, am happy that profits go to charity, and admittedly am a big Hugh Jackman fan. Awesome find!
naveenSeptember 12, 2019a great espresso and lovely outdoor seating for a meeting as well, courtesy of Street Seats. https://www1.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/pedestrians/streetseats.shtml
Matthew SpectorApril 4, 2015The outpost of the Hugh Jackman-owned coffee chain; fantastic flat whites and a solid drip coffee too.
Harumi UDecember 8, 2015You come here for coffee, not to hang out with your friend or laptop. So try the best that the owner himself recommends - flat white.
TiffanyNovember 19, 2015Tiny coffee shop in TriBeCa that now has seating outdoors. Get an iced coffee or a flat white (since this place is Australian)!- DoubleDeuceJanuary 28, 2015Huge Ackman. Or something. Yea, but seriously, this place is ideal for this block. It's a necessary stop, then sit and enjoy the scene if it's warm outside, take in TriBeCa.
Bruce HaydonJanuary 13, 2017A tiny place that serves amazing coffee, with an interesting little patio and seating area outside. Worth the walk.
Very good coffee. Quite some variety for buying beans. Very friendly and helpful staff.
Ms HeleneJanuary 2, 2013Flat White is always consistently well brewed and served up with care! $3.75 for a small soy latte. No seating inside but great coffee to go
Alan MortonJuly 27, 2017Enjoyable coffee shop requested a certain origin as I knew there blend was a little acidy for my taste very helpful 8/10
New York HabitatNovember 2, 2011With profits going to charity, it's nice to know you're making a difference when you get a cup of brew. If you're in the TriBeCa area, pop in and grab a mochachino to go.
Nick VarneyAugust 16, 2014Grab a flat white and then sit on the chairs outside and watch the beautiful people pass by.
They only have 2 seats. Outside and facing the street. They are raised up on what was once a loading dock. These are some of my favorite seats in New York.
Caroline KAugust 30, 2015its really small and the iced tea is bitter and they don't have many options there. You can't even get a frapacino! They always have bitter things no sweet things! The seats outside are really nice!
Flat white heaven here. Tiny spot with seating along the steel steps on the outside
Dylan StilinMarch 2, 2014Great coffee, amazing chocolate chip cookies, and Hugh Jackman is the owner. What more can you ask for?
Jon KentAugust 19, 2024great location, good coffee. Hugh Jackman owns. dog friendly, many dog folks come here.
Sandy GMarch 18, 2014The chocolate banana bar with quinoa, millet and chia made by 2 Degrees is unique and delicious!
𝙶𝚘𝚗𝚣𝚊𝚕𝚘 𝙰𝚛𝚎𝚗𝚊𝚜July 28, 2024Good coffee and pastries, but chaos inside- and prepare to have to wait a bit for your order to be fulfilled.
- Jasmine MehrabiOctober 9, 2019Honey lavender latte was smooth, creamy, and delicious. Coming back here.
Good coffee despite its small digs. Funds go to Hugh Jackman's support for fair trade coffee growers.- Elizabeth HechtAugust 15, 2015Pleasant service, great coffee. The seating on the 'lawn' outside is unique and refreshing.
Michelle RJune 25, 2014Quaint, orderly, and super friendly service for a good price. Definitely come here!- Cool little spot. Think its owned by Hugh Jackman
The flat white is the best. A more flavourful version of a cappuccino
All espresso drinks are doubles, so nice and strong. Seems to be a morning hangout for TriBeCa parents
Nathan CaressMarch 19, 2014The flat white is justifiably well-regarded. The iced coffee should be so: give it a try.
Andrei GrebennikovJune 11, 2017There is no menu in the laughing man so define beforehand what do you want ;)

"The first-ever draft latte on tap--yep, just like beer--combines milk and espresso so it’s foamy, smooth and naturally sweet. Best of all, it’s also available in a can."
