Sawada Coffee remains a more ulterior establishment tucked away in some corner, but without that, it actually guarantees an experience in the world of coffee not quite the same as any other casual minimalist coffee shops. It is intimate and low-key with a garage punk-like atmosphere inside that feels like a fresh breath of air. The baristas are well-informed and affable, still hustling to serve up delightful drinks with a smile. They serve intriguing concoctions on their menu,...
Tried the iced military latte and hot camo latte. Stick with hot latte. Iced version hardly had any flavor and the visual was very unappealing. Camo was better if you are looking for something different. But if you are looking for more traditional flavor then I’d stay away from these two drinks.
Sawada coffee has a soft spot for me because I’ve been to the Chicago location a few times before and loved it. This NY one is identical and it’s even located inside of an Au Cheval restaurant (might be hard to find at first but walk inside the restaurant).

Coffee wise I really enjoyed the strong drip. The flavors are incredible and it does remind me very much of the double shot strong coffees in Tokyo.

My only complaint was the baristas...
