Birch Coffee Central Park South Reviews
Straight up the best mocha I've ever had. Really friendly atmosphere and staff, too.
This is a very popular spot. I think they have a lot of regulars. We popped in for breakfast. A scone, yogurt, flat white & a latte. This barista knows how to pull delicious coffee. It had a great depth of flavour. In our mind one of the best cups in the city. Be patient, wait in line & you will be rewarded.
The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully served – honestly every bite was a treat. 😍 Their coffee is rich and smooth, just what you need to brighten up your day ☕✨.
Delicious coffee and friendly staff! They made the best Almond cappuccino I’ve had in a long time.
Super cute coffee shop in upper east side ! I was looking for a last iced americano before leaving New York. I was not disappointed. The place itself is tiny, like a small corner shop. It is really cute. The staff is very kind and they have good selection of drinks and pastries. I have to come back !
Thank you for having for-here, reusable, plastic-free options for me today! I hate making single use plastic waste—especially since plastics come from fossil fuels, which are exacerbating the climate crisis—and appreciate the cortado served in a real glass. Hoping you can promote this option more to folks enjoying their delish coffees in-house. Thanks for considering! 😊
My favorite coffee in Manhattan and this is also the branch of Birch coffee which has the best prepared coffee and really good peanut butter cookies . I wish they had more seating so one could enjoy a place to drink one’s coffee . The cafe has all the necessities needed for your caffeine fix , all provided in a very tiny space . Nothing is lacking except seats . The service is friendly and fast too .
Stopped here a few years ago, trying to identify "where the locals go" in Manhattan. It seemed well-reviewed, so we walked through Central Park and gave it a go. The iced coffee (red eye variant) was good - I struggle to find truly GREAT coffee in NYC. We also had a fresh pastry - also good. Service was acceptable, and the atmosphere was cozy.
Birch Coffee has clearly gone downhill — both the coffee quality and the service have noticeably declined. Coffee is now often served in plain, cheap white disposable cups instead of real mugs, sometimes without any Birch branding at all. The photos included from before and after show the contrast clearly: what used to feel thoughtful and high-quality now feels careless and miserable.
Cute cafe, but questionable coffee quality. Latte that tasted more like a drip coffee with oat milk than an espresso based drink.
Really friendly staff, really bad oat matcha. The staff is really sweet and friendly so worth trying out if you're in the neighborhood. That said, this is the worst oat milk I've ever had, the drink is undrinkable. The matcha itself is just meh. The coffee smelled good and I have to assume that's the reason for the good reviews.
Say what you will about Starbucks - at least their coffee has some crema and body. This had none. Just hot water, a splash of milk, and whatever was left of a tired espresso shot. Keep pouring syrup on it - maybe that's the only way to hide the mediocrity
I stopped by to get a coffee with my dog. I know Birch doesn't allow dogs inside so I parked her outside. However, where they place the dog park hook is in front of the door. My dog is very small but there's just no way that she doesn't block the door. Of course I got rolled eyes from the other customer because my dog is blocking the door. But it's not my fault! Why should I get the dirty looks? Don't bring your dogs here. They're hypocrites and should just say they're not dog friendly at all. The customers definitely are not.
