Perk is my favorite coffee shop in all of New York.

I've had to come here to work since my son had half days this week and I needed to be nearby. The space is clean, there is ambient music which may be an issue if you need to make a call, but its not too loud. I had to take a call with a client while Geenie in a Bottle played in the background, which made me anxious but it was fine. Snacks and coffee are great.

Never go here! Just spent money on Uber to visit as a tourist and arrived to firstly what just looked like an overly commercialised shop with loads of tourist paraphernalia and very little relaxed friends cafe vibe. This though from the outside. On arriving I walk in the door with my husband and a security guard rudely asked what I’m here for. I said for a coffee at friends cafe. He said closed to the public. I said ok why? He said closed to the public. I said ok when will it open. He said closed to the public. I said ok till when? He said closed to the public. I didn’t get in the door and have never been spoken to so condescendingly and rudely. This is middle of the day Friday. So they don’t care about visitors and on top of that it really just looked like a room full of merchandise so I wouldn’t bother. If you want a relaxing coffee somewhere just go to a local diner.

This Is an easy Going And friendly And Quiet café w fast free WiFi. It’s on 97th and 96th on 2nd avenue. They also have a bathroom, which is really nice to have in New York City. There’s also charging stations and tables and chairs. It might be small, but it definitely works. You can enjoy doing your work while having coffee or tea and some bakery stuff. The male staff who worked on Sunday Mother’s Day 5/12/24 was very nice and down to earth. People like him are hard to find in nyc. The drinks and bakery items are good. But it's the staff that makes the place ... hope the owner recognizes how precious this guy is. I’m sorry I didn’t get his name but know that you are a Star in my eyes. They are renovating for 1 week so it’s closed starting Monday 5/13/24.

Stopped by for a quick coffee… got an amazing flat white. Barista is so nice and definitely loves what he does. 10/10
A good coffee shop on our Saturday commute to violin lessons and orchestra. The fellow behind the counter is friendly and cheerful. The iced chai is not too sweet and very flavorful and the coffee is just right.
