Pricey but really excellent coffee. Wasn't expecting much since it's a chain, but my latte was delicious. Free wifi and lots of outlets plus seating spaces make it a great space to work.

They have absolutely the best coffee in the area, I never skip a visit to Gimmie! when in Ithaca. Now if they'd just open a location nearer Syracuse 🙏🤞🤞

Appreciate that Gimme is still thriving as a local, small coffee shop. Good coffee and pastry items. I will say, I miss the old interior. I find the new inside of the MLK location a bit off-putting -- less cozy without individual tables or warmer lighting. I wish seasonal and specialty drinks were also publicized more regularly on social media; it can feel a bit awkward having to wait until you're at the register to see the list.

It's a nice spot to sit down for a quick snack and coffee. The service is great. It's a pretty laid back place.

I’m a regular customer at Gimme Coffee and usually enjoy my drinks here. Today, however, I had a very disappointing experience.
I ordered two drinks as usual — one iced latte and one hot latte — and clearly told the cashier I wanted oat milk, which is what I always get. Unfortunately, they did not use oat milk today.
While I was standing near the counter, I saw the barista pour regular milk into the iced latte. Immediately, a lot of white curdled floaters appeared on top. I overheard the barista say to another staff member, “I don’t know why I poured this,” and then she proceeded to scoop out the floating curds with a spoon instead of remaking the drink. After that, she simply added ice and handed it to me.
When I drank it, I could still see and taste the spoiled milk particles. It didn’t feel right, so I searched online and confirmed that this is a common sign of expired milk.
This was disappointing, especially from a place I’ve supported often. I hope the team can take better care with ingredients and remake drinks properly when something is clearly wrong. Serving spoiled milk is not acceptable.
Coffee much more watery (weaker) than it was made just one year ago and the years prior. I have had four cups from here over the past several days hoping I was mistaken but unfortunately, not so. Not such a great cup of coffee here anymore at N. Cayuga location. Outdoor seating is nice if you can catch a table or bench. Customer service is lovely and efficient.

Great cold brew and sweet snacks. I frequent the spot.

Coffee is why you come here. The interior is phenomenal. The hipsters personal is just what you’re expect. Love it!

I was looking for a cafe that sells matcha in Ithaca. I found this place from the reviews. It was delicious. The atmosphere of the shop is spacious and comfortable. I like it very much.
Cool ambiance. Good coffee
