good vibes and solid cup of coffee. study tables are small but works. lovely atmosphere with good music and the staff and the lights and plants really liven up the space. love the full wall of windows to get lots of light. the baked good look super good too but need to go back to try them.

Great atmosphere, greater coffee and the greatest service. It’s hard to find tumeric anything in the city so I was surprised to find it here and they don’t do it iced due to the grainy texture of the spices. I said “I like that texture” and he said “let’s do it then” I was so happy. That guy spiked my day up.

I LOVED the coffee in this place. There is something so special about drip coffee. It is rich and bold, bursting with flavor. Black Press gets a lot of business traffic, and in true NY fashion- everything moves quickly. The staff are friendly and great at what they do. I highly recommend.

Stopped by at this place for a latte on a sunny spring day. I used to live in NYC a while back and I remember that finding good coffee was a really hard task. So great to have these small coffee shops with really good high-quality coffee finally popping up in the city. I ordered a latte and my wife got an iced latte, and both were perfect. You can tell from the aroma of the coffee that the people here love coffee and really know what they're doing!

The maple latte was fantastic with oat milk! Black Press is a fun shop to relax in or outside, and the neighborhood is great to walk around in with your coffee. The staff are very friendly as well.

Tiny space but great place to enjoy one of their espresso beverages and soak in the busy atmosphere. Friendly barristas. Plenty of power outlets and a good variety of baked goods and other beverage options. And this place is actually open until 7pm!

I’ve been here multiple times and it’s always a great visit. I love their oatmilk lattes and I got to try the rose syrup the last time I went. Service is always fast and easy. Not much seating but with the nice weather you can walk over to Central Park.

Love this place. Great service, not crowded at 5-6pm. Obviously pricy, but great prices for being right around Dakota. The coffee is very well made and the service is fast. 10/10 would recommend! Some seating, but good for a relatively small place.

The honey cinnamon latte here was delicious! It wasn’t too sweet, and it balanced perfectly with the beans. However, it is a small cafe with limited seating, so probably plan to take your drink to go If you like your lattes sweeter, the employee recommended to try the salted caramel :)

The service and atmosphere were excellent, but the coffee leaned a bit bitter for my taste—and they don’t offer heavy cream.

Great deliscious ice latte, good location for a quick break.

Nice coffee shop! Coffee smell was so good that we went back and ordered coffee. Fresh coffee. Decor is nice. There was no seat so we took it to go.

Flavorless coffee and rude barista. The person at the register was very nice, but ordered a honey cinnamon latte and asked if it was syrup and the person at the register said yes so I asked for less sweet. When I got it the latte was completely flavorless and bitter (I’ve gotten from here before so I should have known better), so I asked the barista to add more syrup and she said “we don’t add syrup” but grabbed a squirt bottle and just squirted some in my drink clearly annoyed (some even squirted out almost on me). Never again.

I’m not sure if the barista was having a bad day, but my experience was disappointing. He was rude, and when he handed me my coffee, he placed it on the counter with enough force that some of the coffee spilled onto the counter and my cup. There was no apology or acknowledgment. What stood out to me most was that the customer immediately after me was treated much more kindly, which made the interaction feel uncomfortable. I’ve been a loyal customer for a long time since I work in the area, and this just wasn’t the level of service I’m used to or expect.

Paid $4.25 + $1 tip for a drip coffee. I drink gas station and deli coffee and I’m not particularly picky, but I actually do know a good amount about coffee on the high end as well. This is the worst drip coffee I have ever had in my life - full stop. Tasted like dishwater and even smelled weird. I have never had drip coffee with a flavor so far away from any other coffee I have ever had. I thought mine was an anomaly but my 4 friends all had the same disgusting drip coffee. Never again.
