50 Best Coffee Shops near Manhattan

“Best coffee shop in the neighborhood! Their coffee and pastries are amazing and the service is consistency fast and excellent despite being such a busy location! LOVE this place so much! Indulge in the Chocolate & Halva Pan this weekend- you won't regret it!“

“Great experience making a pitstop for a refreshing snack in the midtown! The QR code on the review page doesn’t work properly, but I’m more than happy to jump on Google map and leave it a good review. The location is spacious with 6 proper seats, and enormous waiting area. Also amazing for ppl “

“Great for a Dunkin. Fast and efficient. Better donuts than most Dunkins. Only thing is I never can get used to Dunkin coffee, hence I doubt any Dunkin would be more than a 4 for me. It's always watered down or something, especially the iced coffees.“

“Amazing staff, amazing food (better than my bubbies, but don’t tell her) absolutely loved it!!“

“787 in the village is a rarity in that it is 1) usually not jam packed (during week days) and 2) fully laptop friendly. I have two gripes though. One is that they recently got rid of their drip coffee, which was fantastic. Caught off guard, I ordered a whiskey-infused dulce latte that was $11 for 12 oz. That being said, it was fantastic.My second gripe is that they have very minimal food options. The only "hot" option is an empanada, which are often sold out. They are tiny and like $7. Tasty though.“

“Beautiful space and friendly staff. We were welcomed by very polite and courteous gentleman and even though we didn’t have a reservation (we didn’t know we needed one) they were able to accommodate us with no hesitation. Giovanni offered us nice drinks and tea along with a delicious shisha. She was very helpful when we had questions about flavors and was very attentive during the time we were there. Will definitely come back. Only thing to note is that if you enjoy a tranquil and relaxing atmosphere, try to go on the earlier part of the afternoon/night as it gets louder and feels more like a nightclub later in the evening.Vegetarian options: Dry nuts and French fries“

“When you walk in, you will be greeted by everyone behind the counter. The energy they created in the space is amazing. There’s lots of areas to sit and have a coffee, or do work. If you’re in the area and need a pit stop to rest your feet, or just good vibes, this is the place to be!“

“TL:DR - great food, cozy space, beverages are hit or miss depends what you get. 4 stars. David the barista is great! 58th st location.Details:Service 5/5 - shoutout to David for the exceptional customer service. super cramped in here but it's kind of cozy. They have wifi but it's super intimately spaced and I feel like I'm going to break my neck on those stairs, this place is short people friendly.Food: tastiest chicken Empanada I've had in awhile that isn't from the Criollos chain. It was juicy without being wet and flavorful. Wepa!!!!Drinks: my buddy got the Tres Leche and I had fomo because that thing was GOOOD. Drank half of hers lol. I got an iced Coquito latte because I'm a sweaty human even in winter and it helped regulate my temp but the taste was just OK. Her drink was hot and I was happy to sweat for it.Note: the iced drinks come in those clear bags with a straw like when Covid started allowing people to drink out of plastic bags from bars. We went to pick her kid up from tennis and I looked like an unhinged day drinker trying to relive spring break.Misc: Stopped by with a buddy to wait for tennis to let out over on 1st ave. Got a chicken Empanada, a Tres leche coffee and a coquito *flavored* latte. ( they have actual spirit infused stuff but i didn't get that).“

“First time I went to Fasano and I’m obsessed. The Bluefin tuna was simply exquisite!! Mind blowing!Its delicate flavor and melt-in-your-mouth texture made it a true culinary delight! Needless to say, I'm already planning my next visit just to get that incredible dish again. ><>•••“

“Best bagels and phenomenal cream cheeses“

“Their turmeric bun is insanely good. Was lucky enough to catch it right as it was fresh out of the oven and waiting to be glazed. Almost doubled back for another one it was so good (self restraint won).Delicate, flaky, caramelized crust. Fluffy, light, moist pull-apart center. I usually find glazed pastries too sweet, but this one was perfect - just sweet enough to hit the spot but not too sweet that it feels heavy.The balance of flavors is just right. Just a hint of turmeric that isn't at all overpowering.“

“Really happy to find that place! Great real coffee and very friendly staff.“

“Great place for great Gelato!We tried Pistachio, Figo and Ferrero Rocher. They were all amazing, but the Pistachio was absolutely stunning! 100 out of 10 !!!I wish I could afford to have ice cream here everyday. It's a real treat and will definitely come back if possible.“

“Mussette in Harlem is a wine bar that truly understands the art of hospitality. From the moment I stepped in, the customer service was stellar—attentive without being overbearing. The Women’s History wine flight they offer is not just unique but also a testament to their commitment to inclusivity and celebration of diversity in the wine world.And let's talk about their charcuterie boards—absolutely sublime! The selection of cheeses, dried fruit and nuts paired perfectly with the wines we chose.But what truly sets Mussette apart is the warmth and genuine passion of the staff. They made our evening unforgettable, offering insights and recommendations that enhanced our experience. If you're in Harlem and looking for a cozy spot with exceptional wine and hospitality, Mussette is the place to be.“

“small coffee shop with really great coffee, however there really isn't much space to sit. it's connected to a small lobby of some sort next door with a few benches. But if you were looking for takeout coffee then I definitely recommend the place. I got an iced oat latte and it was super smooth and creamy. The matcha taro latte was also really good, also very pretty. I also tried out their pastel de nata which was pretty ok, I think there are better ones but it hits the spot“

“Ama is AMAZING. I've had so many coffees around New York and this is hands down the best. Ama always has a smile on her face and is the kindest(and most talented) barista I've ever met. 10/10 if you need an amazing coffee and a smile this is the place.“

“We had a fantastic experience doing a private cooking class with Chef Alex & his team at the Common. Alex was incredibly helpful in setting up and created a special experience for our team. He is extremely welcoming and supportive, and guided us through cooking a 5-course meal in teams. I'd highly reccommend the Common for anyone looking to do a fun event with a team at work or even a group of friends!“

“I LOVE this cafe!! Such a gem right by Astoria park. My husband and I came across Sunshine Cafe one night and we are so glad we did. The food is so fresh and absolutely delicious. They also have the best lentil soup and iced teas! Last, the owner is the sweetest person!! Highly recommend this spot!“

“Drawing its roots in the noble tradition of Yemeni coffee, this coffee house first serves fabulous beverages: especially taste the Sanaani, cardamom coffee ($10 for a pot of sharing coffee), or a classic "pour-over" ( $8 for the large model) to appreciate a beautiful expression coming from high-class Arabica coffee beans, processed with respect for the product. The typical pastries, Khaliat Alnahl and Sabaya, or even the coconut Basboassa are really all very tasty. Delicious !“

“Tasty food, reasonable prices, large selection of different meals, clean, warm atmosphere, great service. Highly recommended!“

“Great coffee, tranquil atmosphere and amazing customer service! Maria helped me out, she was very patient with me and guided me through the menu to choose the best coffee for myself. I got the dulce de leche served in a bag and it was fantastic. The atmosphere was peaceful and the store has great air ventilation, keeping the customers cool like a cucumber during this summer weather! 10/10!“

“My daughter, my child always finds the best places to take her mama to. And babeee these donuts along with the customer service were definitely a win for me. I am vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian ;) and I chose from the vegan section and when I tell you the pumpkin glaze donut and the vegan plain donut warmed up for less than 50 seconds in a microwave were the best thing my hour glass figure didn’t need, I am not lying. These donuts were simply delicious, so delicious imma get the heck outta the city and not come back to it for atleast 2 years. lol. There isn’t anyway I can always have these donuts at my finger tips. But hands down this is a must try and definitely recommended establishment one has to visit any time in the New York area! Now, off to the gym, omg!“

“I bought a sandwich and some canele in ubereats. They gave me a written note for the missing canele(since they ran out of it), tell me to refund, and even added other pastries in bag for compensation…never seen a better service in my whole life, most importantly everything tasted AMAZING!!They had just earn themselves a new costumer, this made my day, thank you so much.“

“Great place to chill� and enjoy the lovely autumn weather this time of the year! Love This place“

“Treated myself to breakfast at Mike's Coffee shop for the first time in yearrrs. I ordered crispy corned beef hash with grits, scrambled eggs and buttered wheat toast. I was really hungry after working overnight. Mike's hit the spot. The staff is still very pleasant. My bill was really low and my coffee was superb.“

“Creativity, warmth, and culture vibrates through the 787 café. As a Puerto Rican, I feel right at home in this space. The baristas were kind, attentive and welcoming. They also shared the origins of the coffee, which provided a nice touch to the experience. A special shout-out to Lesly who served me and was a pleasure to talk to. Highly recommend the horchata late.“

“Pastries by Anne is one of our favorite shops in the neighborhood. You can count on Anne to always greet you with a smile and to have unique and inventive flavors available. I’m a huge fan of both the Thai iced tea cake and the Triple C. She’s also made cakes for our celebrations, which our guests devoured. We are so lucky to live close to such an incredible pastry shop and Anne herself is the absolute best!“

“My latte. Wow. Amazing. And the ladies were so sweet too!“

“I had a great time with my family eating delicious Algerian dishes at Kasbah Cafe. The waitresses was committed to great service and were very friendly. The atmosphere was awesome, I highly recommend this place and will definitely come back.“

“Tiny little spot perfect for coffee and a treat on the go. Small but very cute coffee nook with an outside order window (can also order inside), and a couple of outside seats if you're feeling clingy. The coffee is deliciously bold, the treats are ok, the service is superb - extremely kind and generous. Can't wait for the next coffee run!“

“Everything about Lysée feels crafted thoughtfully and delicately -- from the space itself, to its tableware and desserts -- the visuals were just stunning on another level. We came with reservation and were seated in a private little alcove which felt so cute and special, and the service was excellent. I loved the unique combinations of flavors inspired from Korean cuisine. Among what we ordered, I most enjoyed the apple yuja tart and the sweet potato latte, but everything was delicious and beautifully presented! Can't wait to come back and try their other desserts. Recommend coming with others so you can share and try various menu items!“

“Me and my family head to Chinatown in NYC as often as we can. And we visit every Chinatown in all the cities we go to that has a Chinatown (or little Italy, etc)in it. It’s a thing we as a family do.This little hidden gem in Chinatown in NYC is nice. It looks like a sterile cafeteria inside. It is off of Main Street and the sign that says “Best Sponge cake in NYC”. If it wasn’t for the sign you would sure miss this place.The sponge cakes sell for $1.25. Their menus change daily and if your lucky you might get to purchase the cinnamon and the chocolate cookies. They have a surprisingly pop of flavor.“

“This cafe is so lovely. I had the pleasure of Desi and Aida assisting me with my order. They made the most delicious soy chai with amazing foam. Their desserts were amazing as well. It was refreshing to be greeted with such positive and friendly energy in New York. I can't wait to come back when I am in the area. Make sure to come to this cafe if you want a lovely experience and great food and drinks!“

“I was there for a meet and greet and loved staying a few extra minutes to pet the dogs in the cafe. Such a nice break in my day!“

“Had an unforgettable date night at Farm to People! We indulged in their burger and fries - easily one of the top best in NYC. The Brussel sprouts? Crispy perfection. And the gnocchi? Simply incredible. If you haven’t treated yourself to this spot yet, you’re missing out. It’s a must-visit!“

“Iconic Williamsburg brunch with a divine menu. The pancakes were deliciously fluffy study syrup that didn't overpower. Sandwiches looked great too. Quality of food and unbeatable location are the highlights of this venue for me. Excellent coffee.“

“This is the first time I stopped in the cafe for just a Horchata Latte but the café mixologist who was knowledgeable about the bean recommended a Rum infused with notes of cinnamon and dark chocolate - non alcoholic of course. The first sip had a robust favor of horchata but a mild hint of rum infusion. I recommend any coffee lover to stop by for a cup of exquisite hot or cold coffee beans flown in directly from Puerto Rico!“

“Love it the area is so welcoming and we didn’t have to wait long they recommended items and helped us pick our options scratchatela was very good. Would definitely recommend“

“We stumbled upon this coffee shop and in the Bronx and had to have our second hit of coffee. This cute shop imports coffee directly from Puerto Rico ?? so we knew it was gonna be bomb! The best part was that the coffee comes in a to go pouch and a straw. We order the horchata ice coffee and they also have a whiskey infused option as well that was strong and less sweet in case you don’t like it too sweet. Aesthetically the place was so cute. Check out the vibes in the photos and videos.“

“Benny's Cafe! What a delight the first time we ordered a Cuban sandwich ufff it is a delight the second time we repeated it with some delicious croquettes and at the end a delicious coffee and cheese empanadas! Thank you Benny for your great attention to all of us! What a wonderful and cozy place, the attention is 100/10, the food is beyond words, delicious❤️“

“I was blown away by these bagels. First off, the service was wonderful. They were kind and patient with us.We got to sample all the fillings we wanted, I got a rainbow bagel with half regular cream cheese and half cucumber dill- amazing. I also got a toasted French toast bagel with butter and I was audibly surprised, I was expecting it to be tasty, but not THAT insanely delicious. So so SO glad I came here. They also have baby seats, which is hard to find in this city. 10/10 will come againKid-friendliness: Had baby seats and interacted with my baby- much appreciated.“

“This is probably the best Vietnamese food I’ve had in NYC (get the Pho or any Bánh Mi!). Authentic and super fresh ingredients, paired with an energetic atmosphere, almost made me feel like I was in Saigon! Extremely kind and generous staff to top it off as one of the most pleasant NY restaurant experiences.“

“Ordered a dirty chai latte which was superb! Glad to hear they make their own chai concentrate instead of relying on pre-made powder/concentrates which meant this wasn't overly sweet. Friendly staff and plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Sad that my drink didn't have any latte art but just another reason to come back and try the other specialty drinks (I heard the marshmallow capp is one of the most popular drinks!!) :)“

“Best shaved ice - please order xoxo“

“This was my first time checking out this coffee shop. I was unsure what to get but Ricardo greeted me with an exciting energy and helped guide me through the menu. He recommended the horchata latte and I loved it! 10/10 will definitely be back for more.Vegetarian options: I only got coffee, but when looking through the menu I was intrigued.“

“Outstanding donut place! Great service, great atmosphere, and yummy donuts!“

“Wow! This is a little hidden gem. This is probably the best coffee I've ever had in NYC. Doesn't taste burnt at all like most other places and it has a nutty aftertaste. Really delicious - doesn't even need syrup flavors. The chocolate chip cookie is divine and tastes homemade! I'm so happy I stumbled upon this little hole in the wall. It's tiny inside but there are a few tables / stool seats by the window. It's a great spot to bring a book and people watch. They have a bunch of other pastries that look delicious as well and I'm excited to try them all! This spot is just steps from the L train at Grand St. Don't miss it! Super friendly service, quick, and delicious. What else could you need?“

“Incredibly delicious coffee. The best cappuccino I've had in the neighborhood. Hamlet is a spacious and industrial-style neighborhood coffee spot. On a weekday, it's full of people on their laptops (which they may want to have better regulation for), but overall there's a lot of space and even more in the warmer months (outdoor backyard). Service is efficient and friendly. I will definitely be back for the coffee. It's hard to find espresso drinks that aren't burned! And Hamlet doesn't disappoint. Highly recommend!“
