Taylor St Baristas in Canary Warf for Londoners, best coffee there.
Find them to be too stuck up, Soho Grind on Beak Street is my favorite.
What do you mean by stuck up? Like the barrista's are just plain unfriendly? That ruins the whole experience, I love chatting with the barrista's and unloading all my problems onto them lmao.
Damn I definetley gotta try that out, so close to all the firms aswell, being in canary wharf
The best coffee(shops) in the world are in Buenos Aires.
Italy comes in at a close second.
Dude, totally agree, the Italian coffee's are amazing. But you have definitely got to try turkish coffee, by far my favourite in the world.
Notice I said coffeeshops (despite parentheses).
If you want the best coffee, based on quality of beans/taste, go to Ethiopia. Helps that a cup costs less than $0.25 USD.
Any recommendations for midtown area? Been drinking a lot of Starbucks recently since its next to my office but I'm guessing thats probably not the best place.
where in midtown? Zibetto is good, Culture espresso is better but further south into 30s? Tobeys estate in urbanspace vanderbilt is solid, irving farms inside grand central is an all time favorite aswell
Joe's and Bluestone Lane in NYC
Many ppl like Blue Bottle as well but I think its just solid
FIKA is a good spot for coffee in Midtown.
Dunkin fam
Dude, Krispy Kreme doughnuts with a coffee are the bomb.
In London there is this small chain of Italian cafes called La Bottega. Only place I've found in London that makes proper Espresso - only thing is they have two shops in South Kensington and Belgravia so far from the City or Canary Wharf but worth the detour if you work in Mayfair.
Benugo is fairly good or a breakfast in Central London
Black Sheep Coffee (London), I love the coffee there
Workshop Coffee on Mortimer Street. They have a few spots in London covering the West End and City.
Midtown * Bluestone Lane (several) * Cafe Grumpy (Grand Central) * Kaffe 1668 (inside 530 5th Av lobby) * Blue Bottle (several) * La Colombe (SW corner of Bryant Park)
Flatiron * Birch (27 & Madison) * Stumptown (inside Ace Hotel) * Joe Coffee (26 & Madison) * HiLine (26 & Broadway) * Gasoline Alley (south side of Madison Sq Park) * Toby’s Estate (inside the Club Monaco on 21 & 5th Av)
Financial District * Voyager (110 William St) * La Colombe (Wall St) * Black Fox * Blue Bottle * Bluestone Lane
London * Parcafe inside the Dorchester hotel * Association Coffee on Creechurch Ln
Gotta run, can add more later.
Coffee Island in London is a great spot.
You can find a new good coffee shops on here: https://www.instagram.com/mrlondonbanker/
9th street espresso off Park Ave in midtown
HR Higgins is pretty decent
Empire Coffee at 42nd and 9th
Irving Farm Coffee Roasters, several locations in NYC, but I've only been to the 88 Orchard Street, their macchiato is usually my go-to.
Ground Central in Midtown. Competition not even close
For hot coffee, I like black fox in FiDi
For cold, they have to be putting something in the La Colombe iced coffee
Up for more London locations
four-five in NYC is great
