Cute, busy little coffee shop close to the history museum. Service is very efficient and quick. Ordered a baklava-inspired latte that was AMAZING. Loved the lemon/citrus espresso tonic I had. A few tables and seats inside. Espresso quality and pour was perfect. read more

coming back to update review post owner response. yes, ofc New York is expensive, and I'm not looking for a fight LOL. was this owner there to witness the interaction with the barista? No. who was? ME. so this dismissive response tells me, the customer, all I need to know about this establishment. now instead of telling people "oh they have good coffee but I wasn't a fan of the blueberry muffin," I'll tell them that the owner was petty on yelp and to completely avoid this cafe. Maybe get better at customer engagement. I wasn't about to make a scene, but this interaction solidifies my distaste for "about coffee." read more

Small and cozy with just a few tables and chairs, this coffee shop has an inviting vibe. I ordered a cappuccino with oat milk and it came topped with a beautiful leaf design in the froth. The flavor was perfectly balanced and smooth, so good that I didn't even need to add sugar. A great spot for a quality coffee. read more

I was greeted with, "We are closing in 20 minutes." Which, we were not planning to stay. Only get a coffee for the road. Unfortunately, the coffee also lacked in taste. Maybe I went here at a bad time. I have my own espresso machine, and have tried many coffee beans, the taste of this coffee was very bitter. I think the Barista needed a little more training to help with mastering the craft. read more

Decent space, fair amount of seating options. Coffee was fine. I don't think I'd come back. The cappuccino didn't have the best flavor and isn't consistent from drink to drink. Service was quick and friendly! read more

Great place to hang around for a minute after buying a coffee! I like the relaxed ambiance of this shop and the kind attitudes of the baristas! Really nice to pop in and pick up a coffee or just sit in for a while. Maybe they could use a little more seating! Limited syrup options unfortunately Optimal location; near the museum and other nice shops! read more

I love it here-- my heart was stolen before I walked in. The drawing on the easel board outside was so cute. When placing my order I had a few questions and they were answered respectfully and patiently. The wait was short and my coffee was amazing. I trusted the barista with their special drink, Spicy Ginger Mocha, and have no regrets. It was perfect. The relaxing atmosphere was the cherry on top for me, it got my creative juices flowing. read more

I was around the area and found this super cute cafe. I went early in the morning so there were seats scattered around. The staff was super sweet and I ordered a matcha latte. The matcha wasn't super strong but I did enjoy the ambiance and they also had wifi. Not sure if there was a bathroom, but would definitely check out if you're around. read more

There were a lot of people going in and out of here as it seems to be pretty popular in the area. We sat here for over an hour and a half and while it was enjoyable, it's not a very memorable coffee shop. The coffee itself wasn't great as the espresso wasn't very high quality and both of our cappuccinos tasted vastly different. Emphasizing that we had a really good time sitting in here though! read more

I stumbled upon this place on a random weekday morning and it was pretty full! I was unfortunately disappointed by the coffee, but maybe some of their other drinks could be better. I tried the spicy ginger coffee, since it was their holiday special. It tasted horrible and I honestly couldn't finish it. Would not recommend, but maybe some others might be better. The atmosphere in here was nice and the decorations were cute! I liked the ambiance but definite pass on the holiday special latte. read more

This isn't the worst cup of coffee you'll get but it isn't the best. I think if the service was better, the rating would be hire. It's just one of those spots where if there's nothing else to grab, it's a great choice but... when there's 50 coffee shops on the same block, there's definitely better options. read more

Came here for a quick pick me up in the morning after sadly seeing that Starbucks was closed. I suppose to was a bad choice to get a matcha latte from a coffee shop but hey, I expected too much I guess. The vibes were nice , packed for a Thursday morning. Every seat was taken so word of advice, get there early if you want to do some work or if you want to chill with your coffee. I haven't tried the pastries but the croissant looked pretty burnt to me even when it was t heated up. Now to my drink, matcha latte with almond milk. It was probably the quality of matcha but I barely had a hint of matcha in my drink. Grainy and honestly a really big disappointment. They did have a self serve bar when it came to sugar and simple syrup. I swear I used so much of that simple syrup bottle in hopes to bring up some flavor and my drink was still just bland. Considering I paid a good amount for an iced matcha latte. Overall I didn't rate it too low as I only did visit once. Might come back for another option but for now, it's a no. read more

Probably my favorite coffee spot in the city; sometimes seating is limited but it's a good place to catch up with friends, ruminate over a past lover or get some work done. I recommend the hot chocolate or the mocha. I do like their pumpkin bread currently as well. read more

I wanted a quick bite on our way to the Museum of Natural History and saw this coffee shop so stopped in. Service was prompt and cashier was friendly. There were several tables occupied and it seemed like a nice spot for a coffee date. I ate my room-temperature ham & Brie croissant on the go and was quite disappointed to have to get to the middle of the croissant to get any ham or cheese. I'd say the filling was approximately 25% of the total croissant and although it was tasty, it wasn't worth the $6. read more

Stopped by after lunch. It had a few cute orange tables set up outside. We sat outside and just chilled and watched the people go by since it was a very mild day. I ordered a cappuccino and husband ordered coffee with oat milk. My cappuccino was very good. It had a nice rounded flavor. My husband's coffee with oat milk was tasty as well. I tried his coffee and I could taste the nice flavor of the coffee, as it wasn't hidden by the oat milk. Unfortunately, they were out of all baked goods! A Japanese parade was taking place so possibly had more foot tragic than usual. But the display case for baked goods seemed pretty small anyways. Would've been nice to try one of their baked goods, like a chocolate chip cookie, with my coffee. It's a good thing I picked up a baked good on the way there. I'm always on the lookout for a good coffee shop, and I'd definitely return. read more

Ordered the cafe au last which was fine, but the chocolate chip cookie was pretty stale.

Solid coffee spot near the American Museum of Natural History with more seating than most coffee shops in the area (of course, that means the seating gets filled up fast!). The cold brew and Americano are decent, but nothing special. However, the cafe cardamo, which I ordered short, was very special! As a short, it's effectively a cortado with cardamom! Will definitely order again if I'm looking for something a little extra special. read more

The staff here is very friendly and the coffee is good! I ordered an iced almond milk latte and really enjoyed it. Some indoor seating and a nice spot to grab a coffee with a friend or do some work. The chocolate croissant was meh, I probably wouldn't get it again. The croissant itself was light and fluffy, but there was very little chocolate inside. Overall would definitely come back for coffee and to try their other pastries! read more

If you're on the west side above 65th, you're going to have a pretty hard time finding just decent coffee. So I'm really thrilled to find About Coffee as it is right across from the Met and super easy to get to from M79! A quick 10 min ride is the saving grace from the desert of good/ independent coffee that is basically my central park experience. The shop is small, but they have maybe 2-3 outdoor tables. The interior ceilings are tall, and so are the stacks of beans. The staff is friendly and they do serve food but I only got their coffee. Definitely come here for better coffee than you'll find anywhere else in this general area! read more

Solid coffeeshop. We stopped by for a cold brew, which was strong and not too bitter. They have self service water and milk/creamers on the side. The baristas are very friendly and the shop was spacious. No bathrooms though. We didn't stay too long but seemed like a calm place to read and sip on your coffee read more

Really liked this place. Ambience was decent. Same with the service. But, the oat milk cappuccino was delicious. Definitely one of the top 3 I've had. read more

I came here to do some work and it was an awesome choice! About Coffee has a great environment to get a lot of work done. They have a lot of seating, and I did spot 1 wall outlet for charging. They even have a couch with a coffee table. The ambience is great. Wall art is marvel themed which I loved! Spiderman watched over me as I completed my work haha! The coffee was great also! I got a hot latte and it did not disappoint and the price was reasonable. The staff was very nice and gave a nice friendly interaction to everyone who came in. The only drawback I had for this place was there was no restroom which proved tough after a whole bottle of water and a cup of coffee. Overall such a great time there! Will definitely return to do more work and get more coffee! read more

Took a different route to work today and passed by About Coffee for the first time. Stopped in for a coffee and opted for the cold brew, which was all right but a little lacking in flavor, or watered-down tasting. Staff was friendly and service was quick! There's a nice vibe and a good amount of seating there, so while this won't replace my go-to spot to grab coffee, I could see coming back to eat in, if I were meeting up with a friend or getting some work done. read more

Cute place that's close to the museum. There was only one lady working both the cashier and the drinks so she was super busy. The hot chocolate tasted really good though.

Decent coffee, chewy stale croissant (even after I asked if it was fresh), and in violation of NYC's bathroom law: "If a food service establishment has 20 or more seats and opened after 1977, it must provide a toilet for its customers." So, you can pay $6 for their coffee and then go elsewhere to piss! read more

Coffee is okay at best. The thing that really annoyed me was the cost of a cup of coffee was $3.56. No problem. I handed her a $10 bill. The clerk then stated to me as she handed me $6 "I don't have an coins to give you". So in the end, although it was $3.56, I had to pay $4. Not about the money, but there has to be a better way to handle it than just say "I don't have any coins to give you". For example, charge me $3.00 then. read more

Fun superheroes on the wall, but the coffee and baked goods could use some work. We were going to the museum and stopped by for a light breakfast. I got an iced mocha and my fiancée grabbed an iced chai. They both basically tasted like milk. Almost no chocolate or chai flavor. We also grabbed croissants. Just looking for something quick, we got butter ones, nice and easy. They were good, but a bit overdone. The place is nice, but isn't anything special. I'd go elsewhere next time. read more
