50 Best Coffee Shops near Manhattan

“I chose Ramini based purely on reviews as this isn’t my general area of the city and it far exceeded expectations. The cappuccino was so good I’m already dreaming of a second, but really even more it was their ethos and I assume the owner who was making my drink. He was so lovely, friendly and honest. I will definitely be back.“

“This Dunkin location is a wholesome place to go to first thing in the morning before work. It gets terribly busy but the staff are fast, accurate and never forgets to say good morning and thanks. And because I’m a regular they always know what I want. I enjoy my DUNKIN!! And thanks for these new Summer offers …..“

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

“Great service David was helpful. The biscuit egg sandwich was very good and the hash browns nice and thin as I enjoyed. They gave me pot of coffee without asking but otherwise I'll try something else next time“

“Amazing Fresh Onigari (rice balls) & delicious teas! (Cold, Hot, Bubble, No-Bubble) Support a local Mom & Pop shop & get fresh tasty food & drinks — win win win!!! (The line outside moves, one customer/group inside at a time due to COVID, & everything is made fresh to order — your patience will be rewarded!)“

“I work in speciality coffee and it is oftentimes difficult to find someone who will treat your pour over with the same care and attention that you would give it.

The barista was alone and the shop was busy enough that there was often a line at least three people deep. This did not detract from any quality that I saw coming from this shop.

The barista still made sure she purged the grinder, rinsed the filter, and spent the time and attention to brew the coffee well.

The coffee was a Colombia Pink Bourbon and it was wonderful.

Really cute neighborhood shop. Highly recommend.“

“Delicious coffee with a chill vibe!!! Really friendly and helpful barista! A must stop when in Astoria ☕️❤️“

“The beans are flavorful and the flat white wasn’t bitter. I didn’t find the flat white as masterfully crafted as desired on top of paying a premium of $10 for an 8oz flat white. I appreciate and respect the original design of a flat white, which is essentially a more compact latte with smooth, silky milk conjoined with espresso. However this didn’t truly live up to the craft coffee expectations.

Owner took the trouble to explain all latte options though.“

“Perfect brunch experience!! The food was delicious. The live music excellent. Atmosphere was inviting and fun. The bread pudding was the best thing I ate in a long time. Incredible mixture of chocolate, caramel ice cream and of course bread pudding. Highly recommend!“

“Awesome staff! Don’t know his name but he is very welcoming and nice! The chocolate chip cookie smelled so good when it just taken out from the oven that I had to get one! And the rum-infused latte was contained in such a cool container!
Iced rum-infused latte is so good! You can taste the flavor of rum when u drink the latte but it actually has no alcohol in it. It’s just bc the coffee beans were soaked in rum during the processing of the beans.
The chocolate chip cookies smelled so good, tasted good too, but just too sweet for me (I got an East Asian mouth).“

“😊 An excellent taste 🙏🙂🍀👍“

“Delicious Diner.

Exactly what you expect when you picture a diner. No frills, cheap, and exceptionally average food. It gets the job done, with the kind of gritty atmosphere you’d expect from a place that’s been serving neighborhood regulars for years.

I had the cheeseburger, while the person next to me was chowing down on chicken parm and spaghetti. The cheeseburger tasted like it came straight out of the freezer. It reminded me of the kind I used to get at the bowling alley as a kid.

10/10 recommend. Will return.“

“Went to the brand new Houston location and things are a bit rocky with staffing and supplies but I want to brag on your employee CAMILLA ! We came from NC and after visiting Puerto Rico several times I was so excited for this experience! She was so patient with us! Answered all our questions with a very helpful and cheerful attitude even tho she was drowning in drink orders! With only one other helper, she never showed any frustration and provided excellent above and beyond customer service! The cashier with her was brand new and super sweet as well! Camilla even gave me a hug when we left! She made my whole morning! And gave us the absolute best breakfast recommendation as well! Thank u so much Camilla for your grace and kindness this morning. U had no idea that my Morning started out so crappy, and your sweet personality and loving spirit really turned my day around and the tres leches latte was AMAZING 🙌🏼🩷💯 yall go see them and be patient …..it’s worth the wait ❤️ side note… the whole place is decorated beautifully! Love the swings ✅“

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

“Pricey but tasty! Love the iced rum-infused Coquito latte, but you can’t really go wrong with any of them! Packaging for iced drinks is really cute and the theme and culture make the coffee feel really unique. Pastries are also solid. There was one time we came about a hour after opening time but the doors were still locked and the person inside told us they were closed which was weird…but usually the service is also pretty friendly and helpful.“

“Walked past here to avoid the rain. I ordered a hibiscus tea, and it was very refreshing! The seating is comfy and the vibes are chill. Selam and Max were so friendly and welcoming (especially because I don’t drink coffee), they were able to recommend me different drinks without being pushy at all. Thank you guys!“

“Fantastic! Ricardo and the team day in and day out deliver on an exceptional product & experience“

“Pass by this place on the way often to Astoria Park and so glad I finally stopped in. Got the Moroccan Tagine Special of the day Veal Meatballs w Rice. She recommends to sit down and eat. Phenomenal flavor savory, sweet, super tender meatballs. A must try!“

“Popped in for a latte (first time) and it was delicious! They were out of almond milk, so the barista recommended I try macadamia... and I'm glad he did! It was very good. Hamlet made the list of neighborhood cafés I would continue to visit.“

“Other 787 locations always seem crowded or have a line, so I was excited to finally try them at this quieter branch. And I now understand the rave -- I had the Supremo, best coffee I've tasted in a long time, found myself grading the flavor profile almost like it was wine. (And I also see why they don't offer traditional drip -- it's to steer you to a delight like this.)

Service was also great -- the Barista started out treating me like a regular, but was also able to quickly pivot once learning I wasn't one (though that may change). Adaptability like that = skill in my book.“

“Best PSL this Texas girl has ever had! 10/10! Thanks barista Johnny for your hospitality and an amazing latte!“

“i’m here to tell you the hype is true. The burritos are so freaking good. The sauce is immaculate. I always ask for extra sauce. My favorite is the sausage burrito and the bacon. I usually get both and eat half-and-half and split it with my partner. lol

It’s so good please support local!!!

I usually travel all the way to Brooklyn for a similar type of burrito (santos) and I’m so happy to have found this gem uptown nyc!! (no pic because burrito was inhaled)

**back again, this time for lunch and the tacos were so fresh and delicious!!!!“

“My Girl Scout troop of newly graduated Ambassadors spent 4 days in NYC and we stayed right next door to Bear Donut. We went there literally every day, sometimes more than once and cannot recommend it enough!! Friendly and helpful staff, delicious donuts, breakfast sandwiches and coffees!!“

“Really impressed with the coffee here. The flavor was rich and smooth, and you could tell the beans were good quality. The atmosphere was comfortable and inviting, and the service was genuinely friendly. Everything felt well done without being pretentious. Definitely one of those places I’d happily return to for another cup.“

“Super small place so it’s usually impossible to get a seat. But the drinks and food are DELICIOUS every time. Absolutely insane how flavorful everything is. You have to get the lumberjack platter, cardamom latte, and the firni donut

It’s really that good!! one of my favorites in nyc 😍“

“excellent et frais 🤩 je recommande !“

“My husband and I made the long drive yesterday (2 1/2 hrs each way) from upstate NY to visit our daughter in NYC just for the day. While strolling around her neighborhood we came upon your lovely bakery and cafe and after eyeing the beautiful carrot cake in the window, we had to go in. Carrot cake is my favorite sweet treat. There were so many beautiful choices, but we got 2 slices of carrot cake to take back home with us. After the long drive back home we were really looking forward to a piece of cake and a cup of coffee. I opened one of the beautifully packed boxes, which revealed an enormous slice of yumminess!! The slice was big enough for at least 3 people. I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Everything about this cake was phenomenal. The frosting was outstanding, the cake was so flavorful and moist. It was the best we’ve ever had. We have enough left for a few days. I’m so glad we stopped in. It was a great way to end our lovely day in the city and will most certainly go back on our next trek in . I will also have to get our daughter pick up some baked goods when she’s coming home for a visit. I highly recommend Crumbly Cafe & Bakery😊😊“

“This place is the best! Good coffee with delectable and generously-sized baked goods! Both babkas are delicious but I prefer the Nutella. The cinnamon buns are massive and cookies are amazing when they’re fresh. Also fun finds and knick knacks to browse while you wait. Love it here!“

“Great lattes and breakfasts that I dream about. Wish they were open longer.“

“I love their smoothies. I have been coming here a couple years and it is pretty consistent recipes no matter who is preparing it. The service is also consistent. They are very pleasant about tailoring ingredients to your liking. My favorite is the clean skin,“

“Cool spot, not the best cappuccino I've had in my life but it was still enjoyable.

It's nice that they have pastel de nata rather than the generic nyc bakery items though I didn't try it.

The staff were friendly and the cup design is also cool.“

“I definitely recommend ! Perfect spot to hangout with family and friends ! Thank you abhi for a very fun weekend“

“Love lt! Very excellent service ❤️“

“If you’re in the Bronx and love Vietnamese food, you are in for a treat. This place is easily one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in New York. The pho is so flavorful and filling especially with the beef and pickled vegetables. The rice and pork with fresh vegetables is so good. The rice goes so well with the crunchy vegetables and the grilled pork chop. Overall, this place is so good.“

“Was in New York for the first time. Stumbled across this Bagel shop!! Best Bagels and Cream Cheese in the City!! Wonderful Atmosphere too!!“

“The staff, particularly Wendy, couldn’t be more lovely. Wendy tends to my 2 year old grandson which such sweetness! Above and beyond great service. ❤️“

“great place for breakfast . The coffee was great, i also had Avocado Toast with an Egg. Clean restaurant. huge outside deck.“

“Amazing place, amazing staff and amazing coffee: word of 💯 Italian!! I simply adored the place🩷“

“Ryan and Edera made us the most spectacular hot chocolates!! Mine was extra special—made with half and half + whipped cream!

Service was super friendly and looks like a great place to remote work for a bit when needing a coffee.

Good prices too!“

“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!“

“We really enjoyed our dinner here - tried cheese quesadilla w/ fries, avocado & mango salad with grilled shrimp, chicken burrito, calamari, tacos, horchata, passion fruit aqua fresca. All of it was great! Excellent service! Fun decor! Would eat there again.“

“Excelentes sus comidas, café, jugos y demás.Inmejorable el trato del personal !! Muy buena gente! Encantada de haberlos conocido!!!!“

“What an easy, laid back place! This was such a good find- I’ll definitely be coming back.

Jonathan was super helpful and gracious- made everyone feel at ease and at home- he answered my litany of questions easily and without judgement;). I fear that all the positive reviews would made this place too busy for me to visit (I like the hide my favorite places) but this one was so unique, it deserves a great review!“

“I’ve saw the rave about this place and have always wanted to try it and I finally tried it today! The cheesecakes are so creamy and soft! I love the matcha and Japanese pumpkin. Do be patient with the em because there are only two lovely staff who single-handedly run the place with care.“

“Best cappuccino in the city 😎“

“I live in the area and attend college out of town so getting to the library on my off days is tough. I've been looking for a place with a chill ambiance, wifi, good tea, and coffee. Well, look no more for me. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Great rustic look, comfy seating with back support, loads of outlets for laptops, and the second-floor space are super cute and cozy too. Oh and there's a small little outside area that's pretty cool as well. Shaquille (hope I spelled it right) was AMAZING! So down-to-earth, friendly, polite, and easy to talk to. She made me the Tumeric latte for me and I all but licked the cup clean. I had the hummus & cucumber on sourdough toast and it was divine. Also, a great option for vegans. I totally recommend this place if you have similar needs or just want to hang out with some friends. I will surely be going back.“
