New! Koreatown ginseng and espresso bar that began life as an awesome ginseng store (and still sells ginseng off to one side of the coffee bar). Relatively undiscovered as yet.
Self-proclaimed as the most famous café in NY – it was in You’ve Got Mail. Open until 2am (Fri & Sat until 4am) makes it the perfect place to go after a show or a late date. It’s a little pricey and c
There's a cozy downstairs area behind the counter. If upstairs is too crowded go there!
Try the Flat White - Rich & smooth. The perfect drink to get your caffeine levels back up.
I don't believe much in god, but if god made an iced coffee it would be the New Orleans from Blue Bottle. It's pretty much divine.
Gregory's is the go-to coffee shop for Mashables as our HQ is just around the corner. Enjoy the free Wi-Fi and delicious coffee!
Go to Grumpy and leave happy with a Clover brewed single origin coffee or synesso produced espresso
Owner Jack Mazzola invented a brewing machine that continuously stirs grounds as they're mixed with hot water, resulting in a brighter, less bitter cup.
Can't go wrong with an iced coffee (it comes with a shot of espresso for extra buzz).
ask the barista to show you what's in his pockets. bonus if he carries a mercury dime.
Strong, tasty coffee and super nice staff but no seating inside so make sure you are on your way to someplace awesome.
Only place I know in Manhattan where you can get a truly great cup of coffee AND a decent bagel. In NYC that combo shouldn't be so rare.
Little coffee house serving delicious, smokey and memorable brews. Great place to hang out with your laptop and enjoy a cup and a yummy pastry.
Jonathan Rubinstein's espresso shop in the West Village has been a hit ever since it opened in 2002. Rubinstein recently switched to beans from Ecco Caffe, a boutique Sonoma roaster.
A hidden gem in the fashion district. Authentic French cafe with delicious food and waitresses in French maid outfits.
Brilliant salads, panini sandwiches, pasta, pastries, and coffees. All Italian, all authentic, all delicious. Tiny place gets crowded fast. Convenient to Morgan Library, on Madison Ave.
As it is the closest possible coffee shop to our NYC office (we share the same address), you'll likely find a Razorfish employee satisfying a craving at nearly every hour of the day.
Everyone thinks their cafe is the best but mine really is. Come for the Stumptown, stay for the Bagel Hole bagels. Bonus: warm and freshly baked choc-banana, ginger-raspberry, and blueberry muffins.
The New Orleans cold brew coffee is a crowd favorite, but it's far too sweet for this guy. I go with the Kyoto cold brew.
Cute place for coffee and delicious baked goods during day, chill place for sipping wine in the evenings. And the staff is really nice!
The first quality coffee shop in the area, Cafe Grumpy brings their quality coffee roasting, consistent coffee preparation & stellar baked goods to the Garment District. Seating but no wifi.
A dark shop in front of the mysterious & beautiful Shinola design store, The Smile Newsstand is the group's 3rd shop. There's wifi, a couple of tables, baked goods & Plowshares coffee, roasted in NY.
Surrounded by high walls on two sides, L'Albero Dei Gelati's secluded back garden is quiet and peaceful and sports a cunning garden table along with standard umbrella cafe tables.
A much needed Turtle Bay shop, this design heavy shop serves Stumptown to consulates, the UN, and nearby residents that previously had to make do with Jittery Joes.
Although Everyman Espresso is one of the original grand dames of NYC specialty coffee, the bright, beautiful relaunch of their original Classic Stage Company digs deserves space in this list. 자세히 보기
great place for a swede to get a Swedish fix with the chocolate balls and the cinnamon buns. just like home :)
If you are caught committing any crime while carrying a Konditori punchcard you get to go to SWEDISH prison where you are encouraged to write and record a synthpop album
If you like espresso, this is your place. Getting a nespresso espresso maker was the best thing that ever happened to me. Making delicious espresso drinks at home is a breeze b/c of it.
Drip coffee, fresh bakery and even almond milk. Communal table in front great for meetings. Back library perfect for relaxed reading. Could use more seating, but for Midtown East this is a real cafe.
nice cozy spot with great pulls of la colombe coffee. good pastry and sandwich selection! great addition to the area. awesome competition now with joe, grumpy, perk and lucid.
Great espresso, sourced from Stumptown. Solid pastry selection, both sweet and savory. Cozy space (exposed brick), with half-a-dozen small tables to relax at. Perfect location, on our quiet block.
Owner Ken Nye is often credited as the first person to bring serious coffee to New York City in 2001.
Long line almost always. Be prepared to wait forever and not mind one tiny bit. A somewhat anachronistically zen experience, considering that what you've come for is a superior-to-most caffeine fix.
What to Order: Whatever's being offered from "guest" roasters — although the beans cost more, Ricardo charges the same price so customers are more willing to try them.
This tiny Portuguese espresso bar brews up a benny ($3.25)—a hybrid coffee drink similar to a cortado that's served in a tiny mug. The coffee is killer. 자세히 보기
Ostensibly a surf shop, but really just the perfect place to drink La Colombe coffee in a great outdoor backyard.
Bored to Death happened here. Look around. How many strollers can you spot? Ray tripped over more than one at this café.
Fantastic Coffeeshop place in Clinton Hill by Tanya of DUMBOs acclaimed SuperFine. Greek salad and apple cider are excellent.
A fabulous espresso bar with some fine sandwich options on the chalkboard menu, located amidst the bustle of West 38th Street.
Love this addition to the neighborhood! Small, but awesome space (with a library of books you can take for your visit). Great iced mocha, and baked goods from Dough. Highly recommend
Bluebird Coffee Shop is a cozy East Village café, where the pastries are made in-house and the Counter Culture coffee is brewed with care.
Top three spots I rotate between in SoHo for an espresso. They open at 7:30a, which is earlier than my other favorite in the hood and, therefore, I come here for my first coffee of the day.
A cozy French cafe with chocolate chip cookies and a great Toby's Estate cappuccino. If you're hungry, get their toast with garlic scramble eggs. Free wifi, mamannyc is the password.
If you're looking for pretentious artisanal third wave coffee and espresso, you've found your temple. It's fast service and relatively cheap, too. Get a cortado to stay.
Coffee served the way it was meant to be. Each cup is a craft, from the simple (yet complex) cold brew, to the famed Flat White. Free WiFi is available, but seating is limited.
The cold brew here is so strong it makes me want to punch thru walls Kool Aid Man style. If that's your thing, god bless. If not, look out
