It was surprisingly empty for a weekend morning when I stopped by. Very modern industrial decor and service is straight forward. I loved the seating area, very cute. Coffee is alright read more

Came here initially for the matcha, but couldn't resist and ordered the caffe granita. The matcha was pretty mediocre. Not bad, but wouldn't go out of my way to come here for matcha. However I would definitely come back for the caffe granita. It had such a smooth yet light/fluffy texture and wasn't too sweet. It looks massive, but it goes down almost too easily. There is some seating along the sides, so nice for a quick stop but probably not for an extensive conversation with someone. Cute vibe! read more

It seems like consistent recent reviews point out that the service from the barista/cashier was off-putting, and honestly, I came here to say the exact same thing. The barista was so rude lol. I was confused by the menu, so I asked her whether a lot of people recommend a particular item, and she snapped back with something like "well... it's on the menu, so of course people order it" -- which wasn't even what I asked. I noticed she was just as rude to the customers behind me, who had some questions about the affogato and got the same treatment. The coffee itself is mediocre, so there's not much redeeming it. She acts like she doesn't want to be there, which honestly, fair -- but making customers feel bad for asking basic questions about the menu left an awful taste in my mouth. Would not come back. read more

Tucked away on Thompson Street are a series of coffee shops within a three block radius. One of these is ansā coffee. The selling point of this cafe is the "micro roasting" concept which features a fire-free, smoke-free roaster that is used on demand as you order. The cafe serves as a platform to demonstrate their proprietary roaster and process. The cafe itself has an interesting design with all seating in the periphery and the main counter in the middle. Unfortunately there is no restroom for customers to use (there's a park next door but meh). Service was...perfunctory (at best). It was not outright rude, but it really felt like the cashier wanted me out of her sight ASAP so that was a bit unpleasant. When my iced coffee came I snagged it and headed out feeling slightly unwelcome. The coffee was, I'm sorry to say, only okay. I drink a lot of coffee from many different cafes and this was the most underwhelming one I've had in a while. The flavor was very light and there was nothing particularly distinctive about it. It was average and I did not feel any particular compunction to get it again. Overall I was sad my experience here wasn't better. There are plenty of other coffee shops in the area where the staff is friendlier and the coffee is tastier. read more

Very cool interior decor, and they roast coffee in house. Some of the most friendly staff, and as a coffee nerd, super cool place to see all the equipment. Cool to stop by once, but a tad overpriced, though the nitrogen ice cream was delicious in the affogato read more

Got their famous Caffè Crema, it is sort of like an affogato but doesn't have any ice cream or gelato, but rather has a thick mousse like soft serve with a shot of espresso. It was very delicious, and the coffee was strong! The barista who prepared it looked like someone under training as she had to double check with another barista what a Caffe Crema is. I just wish someone more experienced had prepared the drink as they did not do a great job of layering the soft serve in a perfect spiral. read more

I was excited to try this place out as I had seen it on social media. It is New York city first Micro Coffee Roastery. When I walked in I was like this a cool place and there is seating around to enjoy your coffee and pastries. I proceeded to order and felt a little rushed. I know they are known for making their own milk in house too and that with my nut allergy that could be an issue. I proceeded to tell the barista I had nut allergy and she then proceeded to sanitize the machine and all. Which I was thankful she did take these precautions. I ordered an iced cappuccino and when I tasted it, it was just way too bitter for my liking. Sadly, I threw it out after a few sips. read more

Came here after seeing this place on tiktok. Friendly and knowledgable staff and the space was pretty open and wide with some seating on the sides. I got the caffe crema, and while the espresso flavor came through, I thought the soft serve portion was just okay. I appreciate that they make it in-house though! My friends got a pour over and an iced latte, both of which they said was just alright. read more

As many people here on Yelp said, I also found Ansa via ads so I was eager to try out a new small coffeeshop with a cool interior and ambience. I went on a warm weekday so I saw some customers seated outside on their laptops facing the shop! Cool concept. Then I saw a customer working on his laptop on one of the furniture. I thought he was a DJ at first but realized he didn't have a table to use his Mac. The seating seems kind of strange in the sense that it faces the center of the room, but I understand that the concept of the shop is unique. It wasn't for me in the sense that I also couldn't exactly sit down and work on a table, unfortunately. I usually try a coffee shop's Americano before I commit and it was good, not wowed. Definitely felt like a dark to medium roast. The price range for an Americano was higher than standard. The customer service was fast which is good when you're in a rush. Accepts cash, card and Applepay. No bathroom. Ok to work if you can grab a table. read more

Vibe/ambiance: cute coffee shop Service: standard Items ordered: nitro matcha latte: "nitro" matcha is just something fancy but the matcha was just okay read more

Let me start off by saying it's a MUST GO!! For my espresso lovers, get the nitro americano, it was absolutely delicious. If you're a matcha person the nitro matcha with the housemade cashew milk was so perfect. AND there's no upcharge for get a non-dairy milk, so much appreciation for that!! I will say I love matcha so I personally wish there was a stronger matcha flavor because it seemed a bit weak but it was still delicious. I didn't get a chance to get their ice cream but I will definitely be back to try it. There is some seating inside and right immedicately outside & the decor inside is perfectly minimalistic and done well. The service was 10/10, helped us order the right things for me and my friend. 100% will be back!! read more

Very industrial interior. Service was decent, you can watch them make your drink. My oatmilk latte lacked any earthiness or flavor, would skip that next time. Almond croissant was standard, nothing standout. Very tiny tables with the seating. read more

I got a cappuccino and my husband got a cortado. I was excited because Ansa it's so hyped up online, but it tasted like every other type of espresso that you can have in the area at a third-wave roastery. It's very good, but not for the price point. I kind of regret paying $13 for those two drinks! read more

Stopped by this place because I was very curious about their nitro matcha and my friend also heard about their coffee ice cream. Matcha was fine but the caffe crema was FIRE! The texture was super unique, almost in between a mousse, dalgona foam, and ice cream. It was very creamy, soft, but very airy so it wasn't too rich. It melted in my mouth but didn't have any ice crystals that you typically get with ice cream. I loved how the coffee flavors were prominent with strands of actual espresso and how it wasn't too sweet. Again the texture was very interesting and I'd definitely come back for it!! The matcha lattes were solid but I think there are other better ones in the city. The nitro part comes with the iced matcha latte. Their matcha powder does have a nice earthy profile but diluted with the milk. I do like the extra coldness from the nitro aspect. Staff were polite. The space is quite interesting as well with their grey bricks but pretty comfy cushion seating. They have other coffee drinks and small bites that I look forward to trying in the future! read more

I came here with my husband during the nor'easter and it was raining pretty hard. The baristas are friendly when taking orders and the space is open. You can really see them work, which is why when I saw one of the baristas accidentally drop a bucket of ice and then proceeded to pick it up with his bare hands and scrape the floor to get it all off, I immediately felt sick. The same barista ended up making my matcha. I didn't drink it, because gross, and asked my husband to throw his away as well. The line was too long to wait in again to tell someone what happened so we ended up leaving. Disappointing we didn't try the drinks but the ambiance was nice. Cool concept, I hope they are able to be cleaner about things. read more

A new cafe just opened in the neighborhood, and it's such a gem. The space has a sleek mid-century modern vibe, and they even roast their own beans in house. I tried the Caffè Crema, which they make by pulling a ristretto shot, mixing it with cream, and spinning it into soft serve, absolutely delicious and the perfect treat for a warm day. I also had the nitro matcha, which unfortunately didn't have much matcha flavor. That said, I'd never judge a coffee shop by its matcha, and I'll definitely be back for more coffee. read more

Came here from someone's recommendation. Was super excited. But unfortunately it was a disappointment. Their beans didn't taste like anything. The latte tasted like milk with a hint of coffee. The cookie was okay. But I would try to come back and try their in house ice cream. read more

Cute cafe to sit at if you're lucky enough to grab a seat! It's not work friendly because the tables arent that big but loved their nitro matcha! Their housemade milk is no added charge as well! read more

Total bait and switch. Refused to honor their free pastry coupon under the taste app. Wouldn't recommend coming back or doing business with this place. Barista was quite brusque and rude too! read more
