    Yummy snacks and great cappuccino, but prices bite. Hot chocolate and cappuccino $4.13, latte $4.36, espresso $2.30/3.21. Still, a nice place with actually good coffee!

    Having Swedish roots ourselves, we cannot help but to love Swedish owned FIKA's bold and strong coffee! We're also as excited about their coffee, as we are about their delish chocolate! Yum.

    Friendly waitstaff and good espresso. I LOVE that the prices are set so that after tax they come out to even dollar amounts.

    Not as fancy as the Tribeca location, but still a great place to hang out. Lots of sandwiches and salads. Quite a bit of space to sit and work or chat. And yes, the coffee is good.

    Great space, delicious iced coffee, and incredibly friendly staff. They offer soy and almond milk, which was an added bonus for me. Try the open faced egg sandwich for breakfast. Nom nom.

    Good coffee in this part of town. The lunch options are good, especially the salads, which are uniquely tasty and fresh

    One of the larger FIKA locations, with a nice sit down area. They also serve beer and wine here.

    Hey everybody! IKEA and H&M had a baby. It grew up and opened a coffee shop that feels like a Duty-Free.

    Locally roasted coffee, a Synesso espresso machine, and a beautifully modern shop.

    They have great regular coffee!!!! Not bitter or acidic. If you don't like Starbucks, but don't want weak Dunkin donuts coffee this place is PERFECT!

    Show up past 6 to see the baristas yell "FIKA After Hours", blast Drake over the speakers and really get down. As an added bonus, the place is empty at this time.

    Lattes / cappuccinos are great, but so is the regular coffee. The oatmeal raisin cookie is also particularly good.

    Good, Black coffee – though they were unable to tell me it's origin. Truffles are good but very small for the price – about the size of my thumb joint, and they cost two dollars!

    The spinach and ricotta croissant seems a good idea for the morning, but it is quite tasteless, I recommend something sweet instead
