one of the few remaining independent coffee shops downtown !! super friendly staff, great coffee, delicious breakfast sandwiches

Best paninis in the area. My favorite is the turkey pesto panini. The soups are very good too so sometimes I live to get the half soup half sandwich combo. Love the chicken and dumplings soup. They use the Intelligentsia coffee which is pretty good too. It is a bit slow so I wouldn't recommend it for people that may be on a rush. Otherwise, it's a great place for lunch and coffee.

The cafe is the best! By the way, have you heard of the Grimace coin? It's a very fundamental project, Odyssey is the creator of this crazy project that has already given more than a few thousand percent. If you are interested, go to the Telegram channel @grimace

Loved this little gem of a coffee shop! Best chai latte and blueberry muffins. Friendly staff. So much better than the coffee shop across the street 🤩 We r going back tomorrow.

Super friendly service! Oat milk iced latte was super great, the espresso is delicious. Also ordered egg and avocado sandwich which you cannot beat. So much better than Starbucks

Best coffee in fidi and delicious, fresh made food! My favorite spot in the neighborhood for a quick coffee and breakfast sandwich/wrap

Great coffee, great food and super fast service. They run a tight ship that consistently delivers great service. I go every morning, no other local coffee shop like it

Best coffee shop in Wall St area. Cold brew is awesome. Staff are super friendly. Only place to get an actual good bagel in fidi.

Oh my god its incredible- generous portions on their delicious food and incredible coffee/drinks. Go there now, and go there every day. They have an incredible business and I love how helpful and friendly the staff are. GO!!

Loving this place. Check their pumpkin GF cookies out - yummy . Great selection of natural teas and seasonal drinks. And of course service makes you come back for another smile :)

Was wary of a $10 sausage egg and cheese but it was well worth it. Two sausage patties, Balthazar brioche bread. Just great.

Delicious cortado crafted with care. Intelligentsia beans and Hudson valley milk are just the start--knowledgeable barista knew how to coax out the flavor, balancing brightness and richness. Will return

Great coffee , ample space considering there’s nowhere to sit in any coffeehouses around here. Tasty coffee good vibe good music.

Love this place. Great coffee and pastries, friendly people. Nice place to sip a latte and catch up on the overnight email before really starting the workday.

I lived in Europe and this is the BEST coffee I’ve had in a decade. Seriously. Remember the word: lavender. That’s all you need to know!!!

Try unique drinks (honey lavender latte!) or stick with the classics. They have great pastries and legit, freshly-made sandwiches/paninis as well. The staff is the bomb.

Best coffee in the city. Been coming here for 7.5 years. Great bagels and egg sandwiches too. Highly recommend.

Hidden gem in wall street! They have am amazing coffee

Very friendly coffee shop. I feel like they're very knowledgeable about coffee and complicated orders don't seem foreign to them. I've had a few of their food items but would like to try more, especially their lunch menu. Their breakfast sandwiches are really good and you can tell they aren't pre-made. Blue Spoon's prices are reasonable considering the quality coffee being used. I've also brought grounds and they will ground the coffee beans to your preference/machine.

I’m so glad I didn’t go to Starbucks next door. This place has great chai latte, hot apple cider, and pumpkin latte. Nice bagels and delicious chewy homemade chocolate chip cookies. Every morning I looked forward to having their breakfast sandwiches and hot beverages!

A very cozy place with a great selection of breakfast options (even oatmeal and yogurts), sandwiches, teas and coffees. Thanks to the Blue Spoon Coffee Company team.

super cute, and the food is so good. the bagels >>>> and coffee is pretty standard but does the job! would definitely recommend

I really love it here. Customer service is always impeccable. Super friendly and warm people. My go-to place when I need to grab some lunch. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for sandwiches that feel home-made and healthy.

A snug coffee place in Fidi with very little seating but great staff! I was able to score a spot, so it became a great place to work out of. Also - you have access to free wifi! I tried the flat white and it was perfectly made - dark roast and strong, just how I like it. The staff was super friendly and helpful in all ways possible. I would definitely go back there when I'm around!

A true neighborhood coffee shop! I’ve been going to Blue Spoon since I was an intern in grad school 10 years ago. It’s a place where you can chat with the baristas and get to know them. Everything here is delicious, from the oatmeal, to the amazing intelligentsia coffees, to the super tasty chicken and dumplings soup. Great for take out, great to use the little chairs they have outside. An absolute gem in Fidi!

The coziest local cafe! Delicious and fresh food choices made to order! Quick turn around and friendly hospitality. BLT wrap is the go-to!

Great bagels. Good coffee. Amazing atmosphere. Quick and easy breakfast. The staff and service were AMAZING. 10/10.

Nice, cozy, little place right in the financial district... The coffee is fantastic and the workers are so friendly and they actually smile at you. You need to try the lavender infused coffee which is amazing.. it's so good that even though it's next to a Starbucks , it won't go out of business.

homey, good seating, and great white mocha

The most delicious coffee and cookies in NYC. Staff was so polite. Blue spoon was our first stop every morning during our trip.

Their iced coffee is delicous. It has a nice fruity/floral taste to it instead of just straight bitter. Great atmosphere and friendly workers. My only complaint is that it's very expensive. Expensive enough that I only hit up when I'm really craving a great coffee.

Cozy and inviting space whether you're looking to grab good cup of coffee or to set up shop for a couple hours on your laptop. Staff are exceptionally friendly and I loved the wide variety of music. 10/10 recommend the turkey + brie panini.

A quality coffee and breakfast destination tucked away in FiDi, promptly brewing Intelligentsia, the west's coasts finest, and offering a wide array of bagels, parfaits, and other quick, commute-friendly eats. An ideal place to stop and fuel up on the way to work or on a coffee break, yet still spacious enough to have a seat inside and get a little work done while people watching through the large street-facing front windows. Friendly service too. Don't forget to grab a punch card!

This little place has the best coffee in the neighborhood and excellent food, too. Plus the staff is delightful, they always remember your name and never mess up an order. Try the mozzarella sandwich. Yum!

Usually i am not a fan of small boutique coffee places because I feel they try too hard and at the end the coffee is not that great... BUT, this is the best coffee in the neighborhood, I usually have a medium coffee, but I always get a large coffee here! That’s how much I like it! Plus they are super nice peeps!!!

Excellent place. First time here. Ordered the garden salad with tuna to take out. Everything was so fresh and the salad was huge…enough for lunch for two + days. Recommend.

I come here often living nearby. I buy coffee from them, and it is always top notch, but the food is what we buy every time. Their breakfast is really good stuff. It is reasonably priced, and quick. I cannot recommend them enough, stop in and get a few things, you will start your day off right. They have a nice atmosphere with nice music and nice people inside. It really is a great place, there is a decent amount of competition in the neighborhood and they have won my business time and again because of their service.

friendly staff, delicious bagel and coffee

Perfect place to grab breakfast in the city! We all got something different and everything was fresh and delicious! Great selection of tea too!!

I’ve never been let down by this place! It’s one of the local cafes on my must-visit list.

really good coffee and tea, lovely personell, great place to sit down for coffee and some breakfast. Had a great talk with other guests, very friendly place, bagel was fantastic!

This has been my go to espresso spot for over a decade since they opened. Always a friendly atmosphere with great music. Tim the manager is always a gracious host and leads a great team.

Fantastic coffee and breakfast. A great place for breakfast or a cup of coffee. A great spot for breakfast and coffee. Reasonable priced and very friendly service. 2/5/2020

Their honey lavender latte is so good! I’ve gotten both hot and iced and both are amazing, although I think I prefer it hot. Great breakfast at a reasonable price. I stopped by for the first time a few weeks and have been many times since. They also have a reward punch card where if you buy a certain amount of coffees, you get one for free. Good vibes, love it here

Coffee was really good and staff was so friendly!

Stopped here several times while in the city! Honestly can’t wait to return, the atmosphere is nice and the staff is friendly! Their lattes are milky and strong. My boyfriend got their hot chocolate he said it was creamy, rich, and chocolatey which is all you need on a cold day. This place is quite and small but perfect for any quick work day food or doing some work!

this coffee shop was just around the corner from our hotel so the first morning we decided to stop here , and we didn't stop coming till we left lol. Excellent coffees and the bagel breakfast sandwiches were SO good. Whether you are local or a visitor , id recommend stopping here once or 10 times.

By far the best little breakfast place. Our hotel was nearby and we chose this place to eat 4 out of the 5 mornings we were visiting. Great food, service, atmosphere. Miss it already!!

Great staff, food and service. Will use again.

Maris James

I love this place and stop by anytime I'm in the area. The breakfast and lunch sandwiches are awesome and high quality, especially the BLT on ciabatta, the egg avocado and cheddar, and the chicken mozzarella pesto red pepper panini. Great coffee drinks and baked goods too. The folks who work here are so nice--good vibes in the store.

Caroline Hymes

I like this place. The food is really good and its a friendly neighborhood spot. Wish they had more places to sit!

Eva Kalbfell

Really good food and nice staff. We had a breakfast in there and we liked it a little.

Beth Gallagher

Great little coffee shop / café with an extensive menu. Decent amount of seating. Staff was friendly and efficient. Coffee is flavorful and the bagels we had were fresh and generously topped with our spread of choice. Would recommend.

Ashley

Hesitant to post this bc it feels like a secret, but they’ve put a Cobb Salad on the menu…and dare I say it’s the best Cobb Salad I’ve had in a very long time. Their coffee and cookies are very good too, but dang this salad!!! 🥗

Isabella Nelson

such a cute place. coffee is amazing!!! not watered down at all, not to sweet either but not bitter. i have to say each time i’ve come, the coffee was that perfect just right cup. This is the raspberry mocha and it’s just so delicious. have to try this place! also shoutout to the taller white man with the beanie and the shorter spanish man with glasses that take your order, SO STINKING CUTE. They will for sure make your day with the service and coffee at blue spoon ☕️ 🩵💙

Scott Rittler

So glad we passed the Starbucks to come here! Got the pumpkin muffin and chicken dumpling soup. Both were to die for.

Emily Pearce

Very small but plenty of spots to sit. The pour over I got was so good and so was the egg, cheddar and avocado sandwich. Service was fast and friendly!

Lara

We ate our breakfast here. We had 2 cold brew coffee, a cream cheese sesame bagel and oatmeal. All of it was very good. The staff is super friendly!

Isabell Krientschnig

Amazing small coffee shop to grab breakfast on the go or stay inside. The food we had was great too and the staff was kind. Would recommend to drop by when in this area of NYC

Nicole Kim

Finally stopped by this cafe that’s right around the corner of my apt. Grabbed a house blend drip coffee and an everything bagel toasted with scallion cream cheese. It’s a small cafe and there’s only two tables and a bar seating area. The baristas are friendly and the coffee is decent. This place is always busy but was quick to grab and go. I’d be back to try different breakfast items and drinks!

Syd Ball Wini

Slow drip coffee was very good, got the egg sandwich on brioche bread, delicious! Did not have salt and pepper so if you are on the run make sure to bring some with you. Lots of space to sit, outdoor seating which is great for people watching, good pricing for NYC, friendly customer service.

Christine Thomsett

Visited here as local to where we are staying and had excellent reviews. Didn't disappoint. The iced coffee was perfect. I had oatmeal with honey, cinnamon and walnuts then swapped for half of my husband's Elvis sandwich which was banana, bacon, peanut butter and honey on toasted bread. Out of this world! You won't be disappointed.

Kuei-Wen Lin

A fabulous breakfast, lunch, and afternoon tea choice in Manhattan Downtown. The sandwiches and panini are fabulous. Moreover, clecks are very welcome to everyone, even the foreign customer like me. If you are in Downtown and wonder what to eat, it's definitely the best choice you can imagine.

This place has some great coffee and food. I love getting a nice warm bagel and hot coffee in the morning from Blue Spoon!

Very friendly, top tier coffee,?Balzathar almond croissant - not good. Cake-like, no buttery flakey layers, no almond paste filling. Disappointing.

Among y fav fidi coffee spots. Great (giant) sandwiches on Balthazar bread, especially recommend the mozzarella panini. I can get two meals out of one sandwich! Cafe is cozy and cute, small but still usually has a seat open. Only annoying thing is that their delivery fees are crazy, definitely pick up in person - if you want a sandwich it's a $5.49 fee before tip!

A nice little coffee shop in FiDi. Not the best around, but decent coffee and had a pretty darn good cookie. In my view, every coffee shop has got to have a bathroom, and I don't think they have one, which is a bit odd.

Excellent espresso drinks (Intelligencia beans), decent food, good service. The grilled mozzarella panini is worth the wait. Limited seating space.

Pastry selection needs some work. Not a lot of seating.

Good coffee for the most part, a bit inconsistent sometimes. Prices are slightly on the higher end.

Good coffee and light food to satisfy the morning commute.☕ Recommended alternative to the common coffee spots.

Good quality coffee if you are in the district. I recommend the flat white and the honey lavender latte. The lavender latte is too sweet for my taste but still good.

Saaketh

TLDR: Chill coffee shop (no pun intended) w/ ice cream cookie sandwiches and affogato. The funny part is their ice cream is literally from Trader Joe’s and their cookies, I presume, are similarly “locally sourced”. Can’t hate the result or the hustle tho - affogato and ice cream cookie sandwiches still were quite tasty.

Was in the area looking for a nice coffee spot to relax before catching my way home and stumbled upon Blue Spoon Coffee. The Food: Got myself a iced coffee for this visit. Coffee was good and straightforward. Not too sweet or too bitter. The Service: Service was fast and the staff here were friendly! The Atmosphere: Nice and small coffee shop. Spacious enough to loiter a bit and have a cup of coffee or pastry. And clean as well. Overall, a 4/5. Very nice spot to get a quick cup of coffee or to relax. Recommend stopping by if you have a chance.

Mabs

Fresh and delicious. Very friendly. Small seating area. Honey lavender latte was perfection. Sandwiches not greasy and overdone.

Bronson Kurtz

Good cappuccino and pastries made from Balathazar. They also have bagels and hot sammichs. Guy at the counter was cool and I got my coffee and food pretty quick?

+5

Daytime cashiers / servers are friendlier. Machiato dry was great. Night time experience terrible. Fire the curly dopey cashier (Richard Simmons?) . Idiot has an attitude and looks unclean and dirty.

The chai was overly sweet and the lox bagel completely meh, especially considering the extra $ for each addition. Pass…

Decent coffee in a small corner shop filled with office worker getting their morning fix. Ordering and pickup is a little hectic and miss mash. There is a selection of pastries, some from Balthazar. Coffee was decent but not as good as other like Blue Stone Lane in the same area.

Guy running the register having a hard day. Got everyone's coffee order wrong, felt bad for the girl making the drinks. Ordered food to stay and it came out to go and was so greasy. Probably an off day and I'll go back if I'm around there but I like to review so I don't forget! Oh Ave they DON'T have a bathroom. Seems crazy!

Ordered the roast beef panini but it was mostly bread

Good coffee and most people are friendly except for the blond long hair guy at the cashier who has a massive attitude. Not the way I like to get my day started so won't be going back for a while.

$11 for a small oatmeal with bananas that could of have cost me half the price somewhere else. No I will not return. Service was good.

Usually good coffee and very convenient. Not today. Not sure if the barista did not calibrate the machine this morning or was so busy chatting that he just pulled the shots too long...either way...terrible. Good thing there are a million other options...I'll just walk a little farther to black fox or suited who always have consistently good cups.

Alex Slover

The turkey sausage was definitely not made there. I could’ve bought a frozen breakfast wrap that would’ve been better.

Disappointing. Nut milk had a very sweet, artificial taste and was actually not blended with espresso. Just super sweet foam on top of super hot coffee. I'm actually allergic to sweeteners, so that was fun to have the rest of my day in the office sneezing and barely see bc of $7 drink -_- It would be nice of you, guys, to tell people that you don't use barista's plain milk for your coffee drinks.

Viktoria “VV”

My breakfast roll was so dry and no flavors at all I was really surprised. The Matcha was not that bad but honestly I won’t return,I’ve expected much more for 23$

I got a turmeric ginger latte that they were promoting and it had no coffee. I paid $7 dollars for what’s essentially milk with a little powder in it.

The tall blond hair guy has a massive attitude. I asked to remake the coffee and make the milk not so hot, he made the same. The expensive place with poor quality of coffee and the same service.

This morning I when in to order breakfast. The gentleman behind the counter was on his phone. He had poor customer service. I asked him about the bagel selection he just pointed as opposed to utilizing his verbal skills. I highly recommend going to Squire Diner . The customer service was excellent as well as the food.
