I tried the recent blackberry latte and loved it! Perfectly sweet and the blackberry paired well with the espresso. Their syrups are made in house which I love to see. The space inside is small, with one large table in the center. It was quick and easy to order and the employees were really friendly. read more

I had a really nice experience at Birch Coffee. The staff was super polite and welcoming, which always makes a difference. I tried the blackberry matcha and it was honestly so good--definitely something I'd go back for. The only downside was how tight the space felt; it got a little crowded and made it tricky to even stand and wait for our drinks. Overall though, great vibe and even better drinks! read more

What a delightful experience! I came in for a chai latte while waiting for a table at Ruby's a few doors down. First, the chai latte was delicious - the perfect combo of sweet and spice. Secondly, the staff was amazing and so fun to talk to! We ended up getting all the movies and chatted for a while, and it made me wish that I was in this neighborhood more often so I could come back regularly. What a positive addition to my day. read more

One of the best coffee spots I visited in NYC! They had tons of amazing flavor options, and everything looked so good. I originally wanted an iced vanilla latte, but ended up with a hot one because a family member grabbed it for me honestly, no complaints, it was delicious! You really can't go wrong with the variety they offer. The coffee was smooth and flavorful, and the staff were super nice and friendly. Highly recommend stopping by, especially if you're out walking in the NYC heat and need a quick, quality caffeine break! read more

I only got coffee here but the staff was very friendly and the iced cold brew was smooth and delicious. Lots of nondairy milk options as well. read more

Such an underrated cafe!! I absolutely love this local cafe, the ambiance is so relaxing and nice. I love how you can read the books they have on display. You can even leave books too. The vibe of this store is immaculate, there are plants and decor everywhere. There's a table where you can sit and read or do work, which I love. I got a large blackberry iced matcha latte with soy milk ($8) and it was so good, definitely worth it. It wasn't overly sweet, it was the perfect balance between matcha and blackberry. Darian was super helpful and nice. They also give punch cards! read more

my boyfriend loves their flat white. can be expensive but worth it for a coffee out. friendly staff

I love Birch! It's my favorite coffee shop in the city. They make their own oat milk and it's the best. I usually get the iced vanilla oat latte but today I tried the new oat cold foam and it was delicious. Birch also has propagations you can stop for and a library system where you can take or leave books. They are LGBTQ + friendly and they give a teacher discount which is greatly appreciated. I love the vibes! read more

Birch Coffee was recommended a long long time ago by my Yelp friends Ellen and CJ from Las Vegas. Since then there aren't many locations I haven't stopped in for the small black drip. At 8oz it's reasonably priced. I enjoy the taste and it gives me the buzz I need when I'm wandering around in the neighborhood. When you are nearby check out this location. I love the T-Shirts and I usually get a scone to go. Birch loves me! read more

Birch Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Birch is one of my favorite coffee places in the city. This location is closest to me, but there are a few locations throughout Manhattan. The space itself is very small, so you have to wait outside if there is a line. The coffee itself is delicious, and the menu is straight to the point which I appreciate. The lattes are my personal favorite, and I love the fact that they have a punch card program as well. Definitely check it out if you're in the area and need a quick caffeine fix! read more

What a rip off. Eight dollars for a spiced pumpkin latte and it's basically a glass of milk with some pumpkin syrup. this place is extremely expensive for a very low quality product. read more

BIrch Coffee, East 30th St , Third Ave. Friday 9.27.24 3:52 PM Standing back by the front window, about 12 feet from cashier, shop is empty. Cashier literally yells , "can I take your order please." I ignore her, continue texting and lean against the wall. She yells it again-"can I take your order please. " I ignore her as my friend joins me and other people walk in. Now a world wide scream: "WE ARE CLOSING IN FIVE MINUTES, CAN I TAKE YOUR ORDER PLEASE." My friend says, "I think she means you." I take 7 long steps forward, "one medium drip with whole milk." Six bucks. As we were leaving she was screaming it all over again, her colleague, to her credit, looked embarrassed. I took a sip of my six dollar drip. Not hot, literally terrible watery gross. NEXT WENT TO ARAB COFFEE SHOP!!! MOKA & CO!!! on THIRD---AMAZING COFFEE, AMAZING KIND SERVICE, AWESOME BAKED GOODS, SPENT THE BEST $26 BUCKS OF MY LIFE ON COFFEES AND A HUGE PIECE OF SAFFRON LEMON CAKE, GO TO MOKA & CO.

I came here on a Thursday afternoon since I work nearby. I pass by this place all the time but never went in. My old coworker enjoys their chai lattes with oat milk so I decided to check it out with her. I ordered a regular latte with skim milk. It was pretty strong and hot. They actually had seating which I was surprised about. I took it back to work but I could hang out there if I had time to kill. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would come back and try their other drinks. I could always go for a cortado from time to time. read more

took a breach from NYU in patient (waiting for family to get out of surgery). Birch is a short walk. The coffee is just the right about of strong, and great service read more

I came here when I had to kill about an hour in the area. The sign outside said they had cold coffee drinks and it was cold inside, so I said why not? I ordered the cold brew -- don't judge me! It tasted pretty great even black, which always says good things about the coffee. The shop was pretty tiny with one communal table and a few seats by the window, so there isn't much room. The staff was pleasant enough: not overly friendly but decent. My biggest complaint is the lack of Wifi. I was pretty sure that's a staple at coffee shops! read more

PURCHASED: 1 tiny (8 oz) cup of coffee TOTAL: $2.80 PROS: - Nice workers: The barristers are nice. CONS: - Dear god... the coffee beans here taste like crap. I have to drink this because it's the closest spot to where I work and don't have enough time to run to a Starbucks. If you like the beans at Starbucks, you will think the coffee here is like.... crap mixed with water. It is just not good. IMPRESSION: It's a tiny little coffee shop (4-seating table and 2-3 bar stools facing the street) located in Murray Hill off 3rd Avenue. It sells you a small cup (8 oz) filled with shitty-tasting coffee for $2.80. And, you have to tip on top?... F*@$. Starbucks is 3 blocks away. The price for a tall (12 oz) is $2.45. You get a normal size cup filled with delicious-tasting coffee. Nice workers though. I would give this place a 1-star rating had it not been for the fact that they are right down stairs. I only drink coffee for the caffeine. I think I am slowly becoming a coffee snob. read more

This is one of my go-to locations for coffee other than the traditional starbucks/gregory's coffee chains. The space itself is quite small and there's not a lot of seating area so I usually take it to go. The baristas and receptions are always super nice and if you buy 9 coffees here, you get the 10th for free! I often get the drip coffee or latte depending on my mood. Both are pretty good and they definitely don't burn their beans; sometimes at places like Starbucks they burn their beans and it ruins the quality/taste of the coffee. A bonus is that they have honey to put in your coffee if you want to make it a little sweet. One thing I've been wanting to try their oat milk (I've heard good things about it). The price isn't too bad either. Probably similar to most shops, and I'd say it's worth the money. So if you're ever in the area, stop by! You won't regret it. read more

Birch Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

I needed a really good cup of joe the day after NYE and this place was amazing. Really cute inside shop and the staff was very nice and very attractive as well (which is always a plus)! I loved the vibe I got from this shop and the napkins are SO CUTE. It says birch loves you and on the back is a place for inspiration note taking. I'm in the marketing industry so reallly appreciate when companies go out of their way to do little things like that. Obviously custom napkins are an added cost and likely most customers don't go there because of this but damn it is a nice touch. The coffee was also really delicious. Very solid cold brew! Had a nice clean finish and you could tell it was of good quality. I would definitely go back when I'm in the area! read more

Great little coffee joint right amidst the hustle and bustle of NYC. This place serves up a mean iced mocha that is flavorful and potent. The staff is super friendly and the ambiance is typical hipster chic. Overall, a nice spot to beat the crowds and grab a solid cup of joe. read more

Stopped in at Birch while we were waiting for our table at Ruby's café. We got a Matcha, a cappuccino, and a cold brew. The coffee based beverages were good but the matcha wasn't, just tasted like milk. I liked the books available and took one for my troubles (which was allowed I didn't steal fyi) read more

Really great staple coffee find! The oat milk here is great and I think its made in house

This doughnut tastes like it was made by the hands of cherubs. And this latte.. mmm mmm mm. There's a book selection here with some seating. Non-dairy milks are hemp, soy, and oat? I think. Good music playlist too. read more

This place is so cute and the baristas are very friendly, but I'm not sure why it's labeled "good for working," since they are "WiFi free!" I had a tasty croissant and enjoyed sitting in the cafe for a while, but sadly I had to leave since I had come hoping to get some work done, but I couldn't because they don't have WiFi. Yelp, wyd?? But aside from not actually being able to work here, I did like the cafe! The ambiance was pleasant and the baristas were so nice and seemed to know a lot of the customers personally. I'll probably be back, just not with the hopes of getting any work done. read more

Birch Coffee is the coffee I love to go to if I'm near one of their shops. Their coffee is always delicious and their baristas are truly gems! If you need some coffee and you are near to a Birch Coffee I'd recommend a visit. I don't think you will be disappointed! read more

Trying to kill time waiting for a friend, I took a walk to birch coffee to get a latte. The place is very small and laid back. I can imagine on a rainy day or in the winter it would be crowded. They offer non-dairy milk options: soy and hemp, this is the first coffee shop that I have been to that offered hemp milk, if they offer non-dairy milk there's always soy, sometimes almond and even coconut milk, but I have never seen hemp as an option, which is great if you're trying to avoid soy and have a nut allergy. read more

Birch Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Birch has been consistently providing high quality espressos since my first try about two years ago; yet what I liked more about it was how it associates mood with the drinks. Birch supplies many ice-breaker cards, that one could choose to answer questions or talk with people around. At the counter, they would come up with "question-of-the-day" as well, that one could expect answer to be revealed on the following day. This location is particularly small, however the vibe carries over. A great spot in Kips Bay. read more

Stopped here and ordered an iced americano with a splash of cream. The employees were super friendly and the shop was super cute and cozy, but unfortunately my americano was too watery. I couldn't even really taste the espresso. There's also very minimal seating, so if you're looking to hang out, this unfortunately probably isn't the best place to do so. read more

My go-to neighborhood coffee spot! Decor and atmosphere is always cozy and cute. Love that they have trivia and table cards as conversation starters with strangers.

Depending on who's behind the cashier the experience here can feel sort of rushed, but I've had an overall good experience with the staff. read more

Great grab and go coffee location complete with pastries and all the espresso drinks. They have one communal table and one counter to enjoy drinks in store. This one shop though has no outlets for the counter nor tables, so not the best place to post up and work if you need power. However, the drip coffee was very tasty--3.25 for a medium, which isn't too terrible for NYC. I'll probably be back whenever I need to grab my coffee to go! read more

To keep it short: best iced chai latte I've had in the city so far. I didn't really know what to expect coming in, but once I got my drink, it was a hefty size for the price which already made me happy, and the taste was on point. I got it with alternative milk and it was the perfect pick-me-up for a hot summer day walking through the city. read more

the store was pretty vibes but the coffee was just not good. i don't know how else to describe it it just didn't taste good. i think they give out punch cards because they know people wont come back on their own. i say this as a free food enjoyed but I don't think I would even want the 10th cup of free coffee if it meant I had to endure the first 9. the store had some nice plants and books. read more

The best oat milk latte in town! And I've tried a LOT of them. My sister got me into oat milk this summer when I was in LA sending her off to college. I used to be the kind of person who shied away from food trends like kombucha, poke, and brunch as a concept, so oat milk lattes were nowhere on my to-try list. But I stand corrected - oat milk lattes are even better than their regular milk counterparts. Birch's oat milk latte is especially creamy tasting - you wouldn't even believe you're drinking something vegan. The actual flavor of the oat milk really comes through too - the ones I've tried at other coffee places have been too watery and don't have as much flavor. I'm thankful that I live near this location so I can stop by on the regular. I only have two small gripes: their largest size is the size of a small/medium anywhere else, and they don't open until 7am on weekdays, which I think is surprisingly late for a coffee place. I usually leave for work at 6:45, so I can't make it a morning habit. That might be for the best though... PS: they have a punch card so every 10th drink is free! read more

My local neighborhood coffee shop! I come here multiple times a week to pick up a brewed coffee, and I'm never disappointed. It's always piping hot and ready in seconds. Even when there's a line it moves relatively quickly and you can get your drink without a big wait. There's never a huge crowd, which is good because seating is a bit limited to one large table in the center and some window stools. The baristas are all very friendly and happy to help you figure out what you want, or just shoot the breeze if they're not helping anyone. I stick to regular milk but they also have oat milk which is a great non-dairy option. They also have a small selection of baked goods that I enjoy, particularly the mini scones which are the perfect size for me. One thing to note - they don't have WiFi on purpose to encourage real-life conversation! read more
