As an Australian I have to firstly admit that I think the coffee is the USA is horrendous…. It’s swill….
That was until while in New York we came across the most fantastic coffee shop, Ground Central Coffee Company, 155 East 52nd Street, 3rd Ave, New York, NY 10022
It only has a small shop front but once you enter you discover a classy new coffee world.
The staff there were outstanding, daily banter while working hard serving the never ending stream of loyal patrons.
The front of the shop has a wonderful vibe, a modern, trendy feel, then the surprise happens and you walk up the back and find the Coffee ‘speak easy’ with its library, lounges and ark relaxed feel…. A true place to relax, chat and enjoy the best coffee we had for our entire USA holiday.
We travelled from the West Coast, through the centre and to the East Coast and by far, this coffee was the best.
But a good coffee only goes so far… the staff were excellent, treating us like locals for our stay in the Big Apple. Knowing our daily order and generally being great people.
So if you love a quality coffee this is the place!
Cool coffee shop with plenty of seating. The coffee was good, but the staff was not very friendly. Not mean. Just not friendly. They sell some food and teas. I came here in my search to find a good coffee shop to work in … not for me. It would be great for others but not for me. Why? Music is very loud and the wifi sucks. There is a small room in the back with couches that is quieter but it was hot and your the loud guy if you need to make a call. Now, making calls was not the issue, it was the bad wifi.
If you need a coffee shop without wifi that is loud, this place is great.
It is quaint and comfy with the couches and the old school look.
Space - large with lots of seating
Staff - not so friendly
Prices - moderate to high
Work - they welcome people to work on laptops.
Great coffeeshop to hang out and have a good time. I was super productive when I was there. Got a lot done. It has this cool, nonchalant vibe to it. The lights are dimmed, and it makes working so much more relaxing. I planned on staying there for 2 hrs, I ended up being there for 5. The coffee was good, the baristas were all friendly and welcoming. It was really nice.
