Joshua KaufmanNew Ethiopia roast. It’s a natural roast so it’s super floral. Very refreshing a light. There is a hint of a more funky taste from the fermentation but it goes wellJoshua KaufmanI think they closed. Walked by today and looks like it’s being turned into a paint shop 😢
2. The Commons Chelsea, 7th Avenue, New York, NY

13. Café-Flor
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Joshua KaufmanRecommended this place!
14. Terremoto Coffee
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Joshua KaufmanSuper cute little window coffee shop. It’s situated on the side of LouLou. It’s $4 a cup. For a large. Cute cup too with the cork. Coffee is nice but a bit of a stranger taste. Starts smooth, becomes a bit floral, but ends on a slightly bitter note. But not from being burnt. The bean just has a more bitter flavor. Not my favorite but def good. 4/5Joshua KaufmanHeads up I don’t think they open before 9am. Will double check the open hours next time I grab coffee here
15. Iron Gate Cafe
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Joshua KaufmanSuper cute restaurant/cafe. Coffee was pretty good. Slight bitterness and a very slight hint of being burnt. But I’m being a bit pedantic. Would def order again. 3.5/5
16. Daily Grind
PEOPLE ARE SAYING:Joshua KaufmanSurprisingly enough, the coffee has a hint of peanut or something. Never had a coffee like this before. Very unique. Served very hot. I kinda don’t like it personally. But it’s not bad. 3/5
Edit:
When it cooled down it had notes of chocolate and some floral undertones. Updated rating to 4/5. Pretty good.
