Nice place. Well trained staff pulled a very tasty shot.
I love La Colombe. Their Oat draft with vanilla or white chocolate added are an absolute must. Light, foamy, and creamy. Many of their locations are nice, quick, and kind. However, I personally would not recommend the Fulton Market location. I did not have a good experience there, but regardless, still love the brand and the coffee.

A pleaaaaa for y'all to make a cappuccino correctly :) and hone the espresso machine use.
Drip & cold brew draft are good here. Just the crafted drinks are not quite what I'd expect for the price.

Perfect flat white. All the best 90s music and fascinating mix of customers in tech, art, theatre. Great spot to come for people watching and a yummy croissant or canele!

I've going here for a couple of years since I moved into the neighborhood; best staff ever!! Walking inside is like a warm hug.

I used to get coffee here daily but they have had a ton of turnover over the past couple years and ever since the coffee has become very inconsistent and disappointing. It feels like the newer people were not well trained on how to pull the espresso and steam milk. I’m not even a picky coffee person and I notice it. Hopefully this changes cause I did love it and the staff used to be so friendly.

Nice spot! Good wifi, windows make it a perfect spot on a sunny day.
Would recommend their Pumpkin Pie chai
Overpriced and overhyped, I went in because I’ve seen lines going out the door in the past and wanted to try something new. I ordered the vanilla matcha and I got it unmixed and with a spoon on a plate. The drink was alright but definitely not worth the price. I get it if it’s busy and you might not have time but it was pretty dead and one of the baristas was just chatting away with their friend. It doesn’t take that long to mix and what if I was in a rush to go to work? I don’t know if it’s only that drink but just be warned. It’s super pricey and the drinks aren’t that good.

Very noisy
The staff at the Armitage location are what make it special. I've been coming here nearly every morning for the past few years and they are consistently warm, welcoming, and kind. Even when the line gets insane and snakes outside (yes, this happens a lot), the staff remain calm and efficient. I also appreciate that it is a non-judgmental space—staff and patrons are free to be themselves without fear of retribution (bit of a live and let live vibe). I'm not sure what's going on with the corporate aspect (eg, cereal-milk lattes?) but if you stick to the espresso drinks you won't be disappointed.
Dietary restrictions: Lots of non-dairy milk options.
