Cafetería Diseño Industrial

I've been to a lot of coffee shops in Manhattan. Starbucks is completely overpriced, lines are ridiculously wrong and now that they lost their CEO and it's been taking over by Chipotle My opinion they look like they're in a bad place. Marathon coffee shop is always a consistent place to go to get excellent coffee a great organic healthy muffin very clean courteous professional people five stars. Great staff very clean well lit relaxing atmosphere. Professional polite and courteous.

A lovely coffee shop with inviting atmosphere and friendly staff. The shop offers a variety of baked pastries to pair with their selection of coffee. I ordered a cold brew with oat milk and caramel flavoring as well as a banana muffin which looked amazing. The coffee is bold with a nice tart flavoring. I would have preferred the caramel to be a bit stronger but in syrup form it doesn’t pack as much of a punch as real caramel sauce. I would love to return to try more blends and pastries. A great experience overall.

Kind baristas, DELICIOUS cruffins (a croissant-muffin hybrid!), and really great coffee. This little place is a gem! Perfect (but modern) local coffee shop feel, they have a bunch of yummy baked goods and even some special breakfast tacos I have yet to try. The workers are so kind and really knowledgeable. This is my favorite weekend treat! :)

Alfajores Ithaca

Delicious coffee, super kind staff, and a cute two-seat bar. Plus, they sell incredible Peruvian alfajores made by yours truly! ☕️🍪

Wow, these guys have taken the latte experience to a new level! I have the house made vanilla. Delectable roast, wonderful service, and enticing menu. I’ll be back!!

I love this place so much. I love that it opens at 7am/not 730am on a Saturday, I love how clean it always is, I love the music they play and I love the beautifully designed interior. The coffee is strong and brewed w experience. This coffee is a love language!

Hey, upper east side! Here's another certified great New York coffee spot. Stopped here on my way to the Met, cold brew was fair priced and well brewed. My fiancee loved that they had a hot honey latte, we are both big fans of hot honey. The service was quite fast, and I loved the little sign out front. A safe bet for good coffee on the upper east side.

Excellent coffee spot - it’s a tiny little storefront. What they lack in size, they make up in flavor. The coffee is smooth and delicious and the taste beats many of the other coffee joints in the area (I’m looking at you birch coffee, LPQ, and Maman). Just an FYI - The regular and large sizes have the same amount of espresso poured into it. It’s best to get this to go, it’s not a sit around a take your time to drink your coffee type of place. So happy they’re here in the UES

We got americano and latte with regular milk. Coffee tasted really good and fresh. The pink cap is such a lovely touch.

Really nice coffee place with staff that'll make sure you're happy with your drink.

I've gone here ever since I moved to the area for over 1.5 years. My favorite espresso in the area and the latte flavors are great! Friendly and quick service every time I go

I just moved to NYC. I’ve been to a lot of different coffee shops trying out my new favorite, oat milk latte, and this is by far the best in the city and I’m blessed to live super close! I accidentally spilled a freshly made oat milk latte, of course offered to pay for another and clean up my mess! But the barista wouldn’t have it, he was so kind, made me a new one without even asking for me to pay and cleaned up my mess ❤️ Not only is this the best coffee in the city but genuine kind hearted people work here ❤️ Thank you so much for being great!

The coffee is great, but can you install a ramp for strollers and/or a button for the door to open automatically? You're missing out on a key demographic - parents with strollers in need of coffee. I don't think I will be returning with a stroller - it's just too much hassle. Luckily, there are other great coffee shops in the area that are accessible.

Lovely space and delicious coffee roast although my cappuccino was a lot milkier than it should have been.

I visited Marathon Coffee on a Saturday morning around 7:45 am and had a mixed experience. The coffee was good—rich and flavorful—but I was disappointed by the limited pastry options available. There were hardly any choices, and the barista didn’t offer any information about additional pastries being made or recommend anything. The shop was empty during my visit, and the barista didn’t engage much in conversation, which made the experience feel a bit lackluster. On a positive note, the place was clean and well-maintained. Overall, while the coffee was enjoyable, I hope to see a better selection of pastries and more friendly engagement next time.

We got a strawberry matcha and it tastes like strawberry nesquik and milk. The latte I got was milky with no strong espresso flavor.

Got the honey nut latte and it had no flavor. Either they forgot to add the syrup or it just doesn’t have flavor.

The cappuccino I ordered was straight up a SCAM. Tasted terrible and the amount they give you for what you pay is absurd! $4.50 for half a cup. Sizes they serve are small and large. Ridiculous…

I tried their drip (a.k.a. brewed) coffee, I thought that it was nothing special. The charge was $3.50 for a small, $3.65 for a large. I tried their Pumpkin Bread which was fresh, but had little taste. It was hard to identify it as having pumpkin flavor because its taste was so weak.
