EArchitectNovember 3, 2016If you enjoy tea, you'll appreciate the quality of the Hojicha Green Tea. It's aromatic, sweet & less astringent than most teas. Steep for 2-3 minutes at 180°. Steep longer for more strength.

Love this coffee shop and unfortunately so does everyone else. Light-filled, spacious, delicious cortados and pastries, and a diverse/good looking crowd. Great spot for getting work done.

LaylaFebruary 29, 2020It's not cheap but quality lives up to the price.Their only non-dairy alternative is oat milk - unique and delicious. They also have delicious syrup sweetener to add to your drink after ordering.

Really friendly service. Iced coffee at the counter is hot coffee over ice with a shot of espresso. Cold brew is sold in a vintage vending machine. Very crowded even during a non-peak hour.

Umi AkiyoshiAugust 3, 2016Great space for working - minus the fact that they don't have wifi. But overall vibes and atmosphere make this my go to work spotUpvoted 2 weeks ago
The iced draft latte is a real innovation, coming out frothy from a keg with the head of a Guinness beer. Best vibe coffee shop in NYC, of course.

Gabo SNovember 17, 2017Beautiful venue with great selection of coffee and great variety of roasted beans. I wish it wasn’t that trendy so the lime would be smaller; best time to stop by, weekdays.Upvoted 1 day ago
Ashley RoseMay 15, 2016High ceilings, draft lattes (or a Black and Tan if you're not feeling that decadent) and blue berry muffins. I prefer the benches outside- SoulCycle foot traffic = prime people watching.
Perfect atmosphere to catch up with friends over cappuccinos, iced americanos, and dapper men.

Jess NaldoJuly 10, 2015Coffee and cold brew is as damn good as it gets in NYC! Love the personal touches post-order with mixing spoon, non-pretentious service, and water tap in the back. Only one thing: Turn up the AC! 😅
Steve PipengerMarch 18, 2015Great place. They really know coffee. Curtis showed me today how to grind my coffee, use my chemex and the ratio of beans to water (in weight). The folks are great. It really as good as I say.
Cafe location is Eco friendly and the la marzocco machines make a mean, well rounded espresso. Lines can be insane during peak coffee hours (3-4:30pm)...prepare to wait!
Scot OlsenJune 22, 2015Sprawling cafe with so much to offer. Great for a meeting, a date, getting work done, or just killing time.
LOVE La Colombe especially their lattes and coffee beans! The only bad thing I have to say about this location is that it’s ALWAYS packed/busy, so if you’re looking to study/work, I’d look elsewhere.
Chris MessinaSeptember 24, 2013What to Order: Either a Gibraltar, made with two shots of espresso and a dash of warm milk, or La Colombe's pre-bottled Pure Black iced coffee.
Michelle JacobsOctober 14, 2014From the shot of espresso in your iced coffee to the plate, lid and spoon given no matter what, La Colombe Torrefaction is worth a visit. Excellent coffee, that, you know, tastes like coffee.- L. T.October 30, 2016Great, friendly, knowledgable, and efficient staff all day the morning line wraps around the whole store but within 3-5 minutes you're at the register... They're magical!
Wondered how their iced coffee tastes SO much stronger than any one I've ever had, joked that it tasted like iced espresso, went here and discovered there is an espresso shot in it. IT ALL MAKES SENSE
Teddy Ricker IIIMay 25, 2014What a great spot! Been coming here for two years. The staff is so wonderful, so pleasant, and so professional. The coffee, equally amazing. I have NEVER had a bad experience here.
Long line almost always. Be prepared to wait forever and not mind one tiny bit. A somewhat anachronistically zen experience, considering that what you've come for is a superior-to-most caffeine fix.
Notoriously long lines (NYU is right around the corner) but sometimes right at noon, there's a lull in activity. Try the olive oil bread and an americano- it's my personal pick me up.- Really excellent. Love the new draft latte and cold brew / Black and Tan. Lines are permanently 20 people long which is annoying. And staff is hit or miss, which is disappointing. But I keep going bck
Coffee is a holistic ritual here. From the shot of espresso in each iced coffee, to the plate, lid and spoon given even for to-go orders, the attention to detail is something to admire.
Julia MontiMarch 29, 2016Most refreshing iced latte I've had in a while. Brewed to perfection and would be a great place to study. There are power outlets and plenty of seating.
Grayson Squire WhitehouseDecember 15, 2017Chic location & clientele, but will never understand the layout! Ring around the Rosie? Enjoy a truly delish cup of coffee...that is if you can figure out where the line begins!! Hah
Jenny KJuly 7, 2015Pretty delicious iced coffee. Instead of a communal milk/sugar station you get your own spot at the bar to doctor up your drink.
SamJune 8, 2013The space is great, the coffee is fine but the most impressive thing about the place is the attitude of the staff! Great vibe & positive energy!!
I always come here for the awesome iced coffee (that comes with an espresso shot) but today I tried the gluten free chocolate walnut cookie and... Wow. Perfectly chewy and delicious.
Shengyu ChenApril 13, 2012The place is very hip and has a lot of culture. At least feels like it. Sort of inspired me to learn more about the culture behind coffee beans and how they are brewed. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
Look for the water fountain behind the bar. They offer free sparkling water too. Super refreshing after your macchiato.
Great, strong coffee and espresso, but a bit over roasted and dark for some. Lattes on draft!
Valerie SecklerMarch 17, 2012Baristas solve the puzzle of this cafe sans coffee list. "They're all blends," one said. Corsica is the rich house brew, Nizza, espresso. Extras: ceramic mugs, silver spoons, glass of water 3 ways.- Valerie SecklerMarch 14, 2012Unusual service marks La Colombe Torrefaction: a 12 oz. ceramic mug of coffee + a glass of water -- flat, sparkling, room temp -- all for $2. 40-odd cafe seats add value. Acoustics range mellow-loud.
Guido KnookJune 10, 2015I've been living of their americano for a week now. Strong in flavor but still smooth. Nice location as well. Definitely recommended.- Toni HaberApril 14, 2014La Colombe is sure to wake you up with its iced coffee. Baristas here put a shot of espresso in every cup to make sure you're awake by the time you leave.
ZaraAugust 17, 2015The best latte - or coffee, period - I've ever had. The croissant was delicious as well.
Daniel GarciaApril 27, 2015Line for coffee is insanely long on a weekday afternoon... but atmosphere is wonderful with lots of natural light. No wifi or outlets though.
AriMarch 26, 2016Draft iced coffee is amazing. Def go for the Black and Tan! Cookies from Birdbath are good. Just make sure they're guarded from flies
Best coffee in the area, but be ready for a line that wraps around the bar if you come during the afternoon caffeine rush
calvi nNovember 13, 2014Power outlets are scarce, but one is available next to the standing table by the cashier. Bring a power strip and become everyone's best friend.
My favorite game to play here is to count how many Apple products are currently in use. Normally around 14 at any one time. Ridic!
Alex HennesseyAugust 6, 2015Good coffee but how was my cappuccino at Saturdays Surf (made with la colombe espresso) soooooo much better than the one I got at this storefront??
SerenaMarch 4, 2014best ham and cheese croissants in the city. they actually make them in the traditional way w/the ham and cheese baked inside.
Harris NovickApril 5, 2013The baristas know who you are if you come often enough — that alone is worth the long lines. Regardless, the best cappuccino in nyc.
Sofia BurtonFebruary 20, 2018The cappuccino and chocolate chip cookie are perfect to have while studying.
Ms HeleneSeptember 20, 2014Hemp milk cappuccino small 12oz $5 and well made. Big, roomy space but always busy. Worth a visit when shopping on Noho.- You'll more than likely walk past here and see the line snaking around the store and sometimes out on to the street. Said line is not indicative of quality but it does a job.
The iced coffee, both a delicious and dangerous choice, automatically comes with an extra shot of espresso (red eye). Lactards beware - no soy or almond milk here!
Sylvain LienneMarch 7, 2015I had a good Time there ! Not easy to find a free table but when you find it, it's cool :) love the Latte.
Not a coffee drinker (anymore), but craft beans galore. Lines are long but worth it - staff make you feel special. MUCH better than an sbux or anything else.
