50 Best Coffee Roasters in New York

“Starbucks reserve locations that always cut above the rest and this one is no exception. Very roomy, but still completely filled out. They even have a cocktail lounge. The best part is that they have separate selections for coffee beans that they don’t normally sell at other Starbucks locations.“

“Nice vibe, decent service. Bit of a line but the coffee came fast.

Minor complaints - no where to sit because there was a ton of people on laptops and it was freezing cold from the AC (I saw others putting on sweaters)

That said, the coffee was run of the mill. Nothing exciting. We had only walked 7 minutes to check it out but even that felt a bit much.“

“It was nice meeting you Anthony, thanks for chatting with us about coffee. I loved my mocha and Tony enjoyed the Ecuador pea berry, very tasty. You have a really nice coffee shop and coffee offerings. Hope to keep in touch and visit again.“

“support the bzrrio by supporting the local businesses and not the Stsrbuck types“

“A hidden gem nestled in the heart of Sutton Place, 787 Coffee curates an exceptional coffee and pastry experience. Their infused coffee beans make for a unique treat each time. The attention to detail here is gratefully refreshing in a city where most coffee enterprises sell mass-produced goods. 787 offers a much needed pleasant respite.“

“Amazing coffee & excellent barista.“

“First time at this location, and from the minute I looked up from my phone and approached the counter, Miguel greeted me with the most welcoming smile and was quite handsome. He made conversation while making my coffee. I appreciated his genuine interaction. He’s a keeper as is your company!“

“The café is so gorgeous and the baristas are lovely people. As a barista in Germany myself I really loved their coffee, though I was sad to see that the coffee beans itself are too expensive to grab (about 23$ per package). Added this place to my favourite list for sure though :)“

“Amazing coffee & excellent barista.“

“As I was standing in line at a nearby pop-up bagel, a group of locals (presumed to be?) in front of me joined us, holding coffee.
I tried an oat milk latte because I thought it would be a pretty good place to buy something for my group, and it was delicious!
I wouldn't go there on purpose, but I recommend it if you're nearby.“

“The rum infused espresso is to die for… Even as a coffee enthusiast this is not something I’d seen before but it definitely made for a cool experience and made it feel like more than just your typical cafe.

Never been to a coffee shop where the staff are so friendly, genuinely left a bit shocked after having been asked to have our photo taken for the instagram!

We had a couple of the chicken empanadas too and would highly recommend!“

“Love their taste!! They rotate small-batch beans weekly, last week's Ethiopian blend had notes of blueberry. Baristas remember regulars (mine starts prepping my usual when they see my car pull up).

Great ambiance, amazing taste, & services! 10/10.“

“Went bakery hopping that day. by far it has the best croissant. Even saved one for the next day, toasted it and tasted just as good. Staff was friendly too.“

“Had a classic cold latte (Rum flavored with whole milk) & a hot Americano (whiskey flavored).

Both were great. Cold latte packed a punch in its flavor that was detectable even through the milk, and Americano had great fragrance that slowly showed its flavor as I quickly sip down the burning liquid.“

“Excellent coffee!! Excellent service !!!“

“Buen café y gran sabor del bagel tostado.“

“el iced dirty horchata with super rico.😋😋“

“Pretty environment! The staffs were very friendly!“

“I come here for coffee daily and highly recommend it. There’s a lot to love about the place, including the friendly community and consistently good, house-roasted coffee. Not to mention, there’s a decent amount of seating and the WiFi is serviceable.“

“This is a really sweet cafe in Harlem! I was visiting from Oregon when someone suggested I stop by, and I'm sincerely glad I did. You can tell the owner and employees care about their craft, and have fostered a great community in their cafe. Great coffee, delish pastries, kind people. What more could you want?“

“I’m from Michigan & my husband found this coffee company online. We ordered it & it’s so smooth & delicious. So when I planned a trip to NY to see my favorite band perform twice over the weekend, I bet I made a trip to see them in person & stock up. Highly recommend Gotham Coffee if in town or to order online & ship to your home. Diner Coffee is perfect when you just need a great cup of Joe!“

“Dropped in to the Chelsea location 2 weeks ago while vacationing in NYC. Great coffee, great atmosphere, great price. What’s not to like?“

“Great 👍.. Hospitality was
Amazing 🤩. They made me feel extra special like I was a regular Customer and that was my first time there. I am a retired executive Chef and Master Ice Sculptor. I will stop 🛑 back 🔙 on that
First impression alone. Reason being that is the most important #1 thing in any kind of thing in life 🧬

Like the same atmosphere as the Bronx Petting Zoo and in Fact their at the Ritz Carlton Manhattan and it's always Quiet 🤫😔 there
People are going to turn 🛞🛞 Rate around and not only leave most will get on social media and post a review. 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Best coffee in NYC.. strong and delicious“

“Had an absolutely BRILLIANT Cortado here this afternoon. I don't order them to test a barista, but honestly, it is the rolled French omlette of milk-based drinks. Just the way I like it, with some (perfectly) microfoamed milk sitting on top of the shot. Adorned with a lovely little heart, sure, but this wasn't latté art for art's sake. The shot itself was expertly pulled, and the whole experience was 100%. My companions’ drip-brewed cup and flat white were also good. Or rather, I tried it, and bam, the flat white spot on. Milk had been expertly steamed so it was sweet, and married perfectly to the shot itself.

Been coming to this neighborhood for about 15 years and man alive, great to have something of this quality.“

“I'm a person who only looks for lattes, so I went there because I heard it was a great latte restaurant.
Because the space is limited, we drank in the lobby of the Ace Hotel next door.
Cozy and very dark if the hotel lobby is cozy
The latte tasted better than other places in New York, but I haven't found a place like the best Korean latte restaurant yet.“

“Definitely a great tasting coffee. It really packs a punch.“

“Good product and friendly staff. When searing us available, a solid place enjoy a latte while working.“

“My neighborhood go to. Consistently great coffee, music playlist, and cheerfully attentive baristas. The only challenge is the small size of the café itself.“

“Birch on 7th Ave and 14th street is my fave spot to get my afternoon skinny flat white during our class break at Pratt. The crew there is always great and I love the tip jar questions. Hang in there dear Birch! Looking forward to seeing you all again when we’re through this.“

“An awesome place with lots of selections. Look for the 365 label of products, they are VERY affordable,so if you're a senior like me you will be able to afford the healthy food here with this name brand. They have three floors, and a public bathroom which always has a long line like a discotheque, but you can use it if you're in the Union square vicinity without any hassle.“

“Wonderful iced latte! lovely staff, delish little breads and donuts.“

“This Joe Coffee was tucked around near Track 11 / Greybar passage, so the best part avoids the big lines and rush in any other coffee shop. My large latte, 12 oz (which I'm glad the barista showed me for no surprises), was $6, which I'll usually make an exception for when time is precious and taste was good. Enjoy!“

“I had a situation where I ordered a drink and didn’t communicate properly because I was in a rush and ended up not liking it when I got to work. I went back to them and let them know about my drink mishap and they made me a new drink for free no questions asked. Exemplary customer service and a really nice staff. They are always willing to try a new drink with you if you don’t know what you want or don’t have something in mind. Thank you Joe’s for amazing service !! ❤️❤️“

“Pretty environment! The staffs were very friendly!“

“Great cappuccino and almond croissant 🥐“

“Brought a tin of Seasonal Coffee Beans back home to Scotland and WOWEEE! That is some seriously good coffee ☕️ picked up from central park christmas market, the coffee peanut butter is worth a try also! Great job guys 👍“

“I’ve visited this cafe multiple times, and it’s consistently excellent. They serve really good coffee, cappuccino, and matcha latte, perfectly paired with delicious pastries and savory options. I especially love their banana bread, avocado toast with feta, and sourdough bread. The cozy, inviting atmosphere and friendly service make it a reliable spot for both a casual coffee or a relaxed meal.“

“Found this gem just across from our hotel on 45th NYC, delightful delicious cappuccino! Definitely make this one of your stops when you are in NYC.“

“First time trying this coffee, I think I’m in love. Always take coffee bushcrafting this in my new favorite!“

“普通のコーヒーでとてもおいしい。気が休まります。“

“Good espresso and friendly staff! What more can I ask for? I've tried their iced oat lattes and they've been consistently good. I can definitely taste the high quality beans they use, it's not cheap but it's worth it sometimes :)

Haven't tried their specialty drinks, but I am interested in trying one day.“

“Best chai in the world! They have locations all over NY and it’s my favorite.“

“First time trying this coffee, I think I’m in love. Always take coffee bushcrafting this in my new favorite!“

“Despite being able to order online, I head in because of the amazing staff. I shifted from a keurig to the confusing world of Nespresso, and Joe took the time to help me decipher all the flavors including making sacrilegious Americanos. He is always attentive regardless of how busy they are and has been a great guide on my new addiction.“

“Joe Coffee Pro Shop never disappoints! Their coffee is the best, their staff is friendly and knowledgeable, they have a great selection of baked goods, and their seasonal drink recipes are always creative and delicious. It’s one of my must- visit places when I'm in NYC!“

“Joe coffee has very friendly and welcoming staff. My son needed to go potty and we walked 2 blocks but couldn’t find a restroom. The staff let us use the restroom. I got an iced mocha latte there. It’s very good. Nice and cute place to sit for a drink. We’ll visit more.“

“Perfect setting for long conversation over coffee. Interior is cozy , awesome and tasteful.Lots of varieties of coffee, shakes . We took a cappuccino and cold coffee. Both were great. Paid about $11 for 2 large coffees.Overall lil expensive than Starbucks. But, worth it.“
