The best cup of coffee you’ll probably get in any airport anywhere on the planet.
Wish they were open on Mondays though!

We stayed at the TWA Hotel last night prior to traveling overseas. A short walk from our room on 4th floor of the hotel is Intelligensia Coffee. Not only the cafe a great design (classic TWA colors and 1960’s vibe), the coffee is ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️!! We ordered lattes, which are not your massive 16 oz drinks, but smaller craft-created with great intention by a guy named Zavier Jean-Charles. Shout out to TWA Hotel - this guy makes GREAT coffee! Thank you, Zavier, and Lakesha Bell, the super friendly and efficient manager, for starting our travel day in such a positive way!

I don't usually leave many reviews, but I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews here. Intelligentsia Coffee is a great roasting company and a big player in the third wave coffee movement. You're always going to have a high-quality cup of coffee here, so of course the prices are going to reflect that--not to mention that it's in the beautiful TWA Hotel. Also, the barista that made our drinks was very nice and cheerful. So, if you're not into coffee, it makes sense to prioritize price in your decision; otherwise, come here if you want a great coffee at JFK.

This is the only place I can get a great flat white within a 20 minute drive. Kelsey, the barista, is fantastic and one of the main reasons we always come back. We fly out of T8 but will come here just for the coffee and the TWA vibes.

Just ordered an “Avena Latte”, nothing added other than what’s advertised in the menu. Fairly smooth, foamy with a fruity and herby tone, decent expresso kick and a slight spiciness

Terrible customer service. Asked for extra hot coffees when said it wasn’t hot enough got two eye rolls. Very disappointed!!!

I was really wanting to drink coffee after a long flight and decided to try the coffee here. I ordered macchiato with vanilla syrup and it was really nice. The barista is really friendly too. Love it !

Inside the TWA Hotel. Friendly barista, great coffee and croissants.

Came down for the spicy oat milk latte with my sister. The service was delightful and the latte was divine. Thanks!?☕

Only good thing about this place was leaving
