Coffee: Very good. A lot more options for adventurous coffee connoisseurs. Tea: Asian inspired drinks like black sesame latte and matcha. Service: Standard Coffee shop Food: Surprisingly good. Had an open face mozzarella sandwich and it was delicious. Ambience: Wished it was more comfortable. They have modern furniture without ergonomics. Overall, will be going back bc their coffee is good. read more

Every time I was at another coffee shop in the suburbs, someone would tell me that I have to try Coffee Project. I was in the city early for a concert and figured it was time to give it a shot! Basically designed with me in mind, modern and bright and laser focused on the coffee experience! The woman working behind the counter was pleasant and knowledgeable about coffee. Another plus, she didn't look to upsell to the most expensive option. My biggest requirement for a serious coffee shop is a nice selection of pour over coffee. They certainly deliver. I went with the Colombian Julio Cesar Madrid Logan Culturing Caturra and it was delicious! Served at optimal temperature, the coffee was smooth with well rounded flavor. I will certainly return to Coffee Project! Almost forgot to mention, the seating was comfortable and the music was pleasant! read more

So I asked if the scone was good. "Yes it's good." Ok I'll take the scone. They heat it up. I take a bite. I can only think that the Sahara Desert feels like what this scone tastes like. "Dry" is such a limited word for the consistency of this scone. I ask for butter. "We don't have butter." But you have a kitchen, with cooks and other entrees. Don't they use butter for those? Jam? "We don't have jam." Really? I bet there's jam here somewhere. Yes I'm old. Yes I long for a coffee shop counter that gave you generous helpings of butter pats and jam pats. Yes I'm cranky and tired of robotic, unsmiling people in horrific, futuristic "coffee projects". I don't want a coffee project. I just want coffee and a scone that doesn't taste like sandpaper and a pat of butter. I'll settle for margarine. read more

Really great pour over selection in hell's kitchen! Not many places can match their selection. I was a big fan of their Janson lot 950 gesha. They also price their coffee reasonably compared to other shops. Alexa their barista provided great service. Ambiance is more fast casual less slow bar but they're more than willing to let you stay should you want to. Would recommend read more

Love their coffee! I had a latte this time and everything is perfect! Barista is very professional and so friendly. However, the cafe is not that spacious ( nice location though!) The number of the seats is limited. Not the place for a large group. This cafe is very cozy and the place for real coffee lovers I want to try their pour over next time. read more

I am not easily impressed by coffee shops as I have an extensive setup at home. Coffee project thoroughly impressed me. My flat white was complex in flavor and that's hard to do with espresso and milk, let alone in a cafe setting. Their dial in was legit. The baristas were attentive and friendly.

Big fan of this coffee shop. It's located around the corner of 9th ave and has a neat vibe to it. Like every coffee shop it has the needed bathroom (that is well maintained), wifi (not sure if they leave it on during weekends but both the times I visited were on weekday mornings), and solid coffee. They rotate between a few seasonal drinks which I always appreciate. I tried the pandan latte and was honestly a big fan. It was not too sweet and the pandan flavor complements the coffee nicely. The service is quite nice and they do a good job maintaining the cleanliness of the store. They also have a kitchen and a few pastries. I tried the blueberry muffin and it was delightful. The staff will also warm up pastries for you if requested. When you walk inside they have a few tables on the right where you can use laptops and work, and on the inside there are 3-4 tables for small groups that the store will request you avoid using laptops on. Big fan and if there is seating it is a decent place for a work from home day at a cafe. read more

Cute little coffee shop tucked away. It's not very noticeable but glad I discovered it. Walking in, it's easy to order at the counter - depends when you go it can get pretty busy. There's definitely a fair share of tables inside the place and lighting is really comfortable. This coffee place doesn't have loud music playing at others and it makes it easy to have conversations. The coffee and food were decent - classic NYC prices but definitely a comfortable place to go! read more

I felt welcomed by the barista with red hair--such a warm and friendly vibe. The space is on the smaller side, but the elevated interior design makes it cozy and stylish. Pandan Latte ($7.50) + Oat Milk ($1): Hands down, the best pandan latte I've ever had. Most pandan coffees I've tried are either too sweet or too subtle, but this one hit the perfect level of sweetness. The balance of coffee, milk, and pandan flavor was spot-on, with an impeccable ratio. Love, love, love! Highly recommend. read more

Came here to try to work a bit in the afternoon. There are limited tables that allow laptops inside, but thankfully someone left pretty quickly. The person working the counter also said that around that time, 1pm ish, the tables come and go very fast, so if you wait a little you'll probably get a table soon. The tables outside were mostly free, though, and all of them had outlets nearby. Tables are quite small and others are working and taking calls and having conversations and outlets are shared between tables, so it can be quite loud and there's a chance there isn't a free outlet. I didn't see what it was like at the outdoor tables, but I assume roughly the same thing, plus no AC :') The pandan coffee was pretty tasty and kept me going through the afternoon, so no complaints there! It also wasn't too sweet; would order again. They also have a nice selection of food and pastries and other interesting coffee drinks. Overall would definitely stop by again if I needed a cafe in the area to work at, but maybe I'd try one of the outdoor tables if I had a ton of meetings. read more

I just ordered a decaf coffee and it was $7.08. This the highest I've paid in Hell's Kitchen for a coffee. Sheesh! I'll stick to Starbucks.

Coffee Project has such a classy vibe to the store, while entering you see an organized space with tables and a seating area. There was also this beautiful installation that I saw when I looked up. This is a super cute cafe to loiter with friends or to get work done (limited tables for computers). They served typical cafe drinks that were averagely priced. I got a chai latte with oatmilk and it was a little sweeter than expected but was still good. The iced latte was super good and refreshing. read more

Overall: Love this place from the ambience to the coffee and baked goods to the staff. Loved it so much I came back the next day. Ambience: It looks like a small place but it is a decent size. I love that it is accessible with a ramp. The aesthetic is beautiful - modern and minimalist. The big windows are great for natural light and there are separate spaces for people who just want to sit and chat vs those that want to stay for a bit. Service: Friendly and quick. Just some food wholesome folks. Food: Try the almond croissant! They warm up all their baked goods. I tried the almond and chocolate croissants but the almond is superior! They don't make the food themselves but the coffee they do. I tried the latte, macchiatos, and the Kickass London Fog. All are delicious! Please come here! read more

Famous for their deconstructed latte and I'm so glad they opened one in Hell's Kitchen. I'm definitely coming back for it. The ambiance here is vibrant, clean, and decently large. The staff here are wonderful and helpful. We came here on a rainy Saturday morning for a quick breakfast to share and enjoyed it. ORDERED: Mushroom toast on a croissant - it was delicious and filling. The truffle flavor was quite pronounced. Matcha latte with almond milk - it was decent. Pretty average. read more

Came here on a weekday morning. Honestly a lot more busy than I expected, but still had one or two open seats. They split their seating by laptop allowed and not, so only half their seating is laptop friendly. I got a cortado, and it was solid. Nicely foamed milk created nice texture and feel, and the beans were good quality. Overall, nothing to complain about. Was definitely a bit annoyed by someone next to me taking a meeting pretty loudly, but not a fault of the coffee shop itself. Definitely a good stop if you want to get some work done with solid coffee! read more

Coffee shop by day, sushi restaurant by night. Great way to utilize the space and super cute coffee shop. Seems to be a popular space, but it's very loud inside. It's actually quite difficult to have a conversation and hear the other person across the table from you. I noticed several people with headphones on. Cold brew is good, but the loud music and tight space may keep me away. Their page states that they're open until 5pm, but it's actually 4:30. They walked around just before 4:30 giving their 5-minute warning. They may want to make this more clear, as we literally sat down and had to go right away. That was annoying. read more

It's clear that this café has a huge fan base of regulars: during my couple hours there, a lot of people stopped by who the baristas knew and were chatting with, which was sweet to see and gave the place a very neighborhood-feel. The coffee was good (I ordered a cortado) and the roast on the beans was nice and flavorful. Service was quick. I'm only taking away one star because online reviews gave me the impression that the space was a lot larger and work-friendly than it was, when in reality the indoor seating felt a bit cramped. As other commenters have mentioned, all of the two-top "laptop friendly" tables were occupied when I arrived, which left me in a bit of a tough spot when I came specifically to do work. While they have more seating than many NY coffee shops, it's clear that it's still not quite enough to support the flow of customers coming in. I respect cafes who choose to have a "no laptops" policy, but wish I would have known that was a possibility before coming to this spot. read more

Came from a long drive to come to NY, just ate a whole lunch meal, and wanted to drink some good coffee. I just ordered their drip coffee (but it wasn't drip...). Coffee was average, nothing great about it. Service was alright. Cafe is spacious for working, studying, or just to hang out. Something about their service rubbed me off the wrong way. I wouldn't come back. read more

I've always dreamt of having a neighborhood coffee spot where I could go and read at least a couple times a week if possible. I never could have imagined having one open up next door that was so perfect I'm literally there everyday. Coffee Project is the most amazing place with the highest quality coffee, food and most importantly customer service! I wish I could give them 10 stars, they deserve it. When you walk in the staff will immediately brighten your day no matter what kind of day you're having - Jed, Rysse, Juan are some of the most beautiful souls I've ever met. They memorized my order after the first day and I love that some days even when I forget to say "extra hot" or "easy ice" they remember to do it for me anyway. The ambience is beautiful (it used to be a Japanese restaurant), but it has translated perfectly into a coffee house. They always have great music playing. Some of my favorites are the Kick Ass London Fog - hot or iced (if iced I prefer it with oat milk) and the Matcha Latte with honey. I know everyone has had avocado toast and may think it's the same everywhere, but you've never tasted anything like it until you've had it at Coffee Project. You probably won't be able to order avocado toast anywhere else after you eat it here. Their egg sandwiches with side salads are always fresh and delicious and make a great lunch. Lastly, the downside of a lot of coffee places is that they are crowded with people on their laptops. I love that Coffee Project has dedicated a few tables "laptop free" for people who love to read and just need a place to get away from their kids for an hour! No screens, no loud noises - just some incredible coffee, food, music and some of the best conversations and laughs I've ever had. Thanks for all you do! I appreciate you all so much. read more

TLDR: great coffee and bites but if you're coming to do work and only no-laptop-designated tables are available, do not take your laptop out or you will have an unpleasant interaction with the staff Coffee project is one of my favorites places for coffee in the city and I go quite often. I've been coming to do work at this location since I've moved to the area several months ago. There are a few three-seat, no-laptop only tables. In the past, I've asked if it would be okay to do work at these tables while I wait for a laptop-designated table and I've been told it's fine, as long as it's not busy and no one's waiting for a seat. During this visit, my friends and I pulled our laptops out while we were eating the food we purchased. While there was no line and no one waiting for a table, we were suddenly approached and told, "you see that sign that's turned around? Yeah. It says that, 'this laptop is table free' and it says that for a reason. I'm gonna ask you to put your laptops away." When I asked what the reason was because there was no line and no one waiting she responded, "Its because 70% of our tables are already dedicated for laptop use so these tables are meant for people who want to have a coffee and chat, instead sitting all day doing work." While sure, we shouldn't have had our laptops out, the interaction was so curt and sassy that it left us and the tables next to us very confused. I honestly do not mind being asked to honor whatever policy an establishment has, but the delivery made me, my friends, and the tables next to us uncomfortable and upset. I relocated to another table and my friends left after finishing their food. The tables behind me are still empty an hour later and it's not busy. Overall: I like the coffee and food here so I'll keep returning to do work but service today gave me and my friends the biggest ick. Will be avoiding that barista in the future. read more

Loud music when 99.9% of the customers are deep in conversation or working, not so cool and doesn't make for the best customer experience. I asked to have the music turned down slightly, to no avail.

Coffee: 4/5 | Service: 5/5 | Ambience: 4/ 5 | Value: 3/5 This place is very cute/contemporary like the name. It does have indoor/outdoor space. The service is fast and the folks are kind. I had tried to go here once but it was so packed that it was not possible. In my second attempt, my friend and I managed to get a table inside. We were there to do some work but honestly, it was not the best place for this. It is a bit crammed (& i know we are in nyc) that it felt a little uncomfy given the contemporary design. The coffee was tasty but very expensive. I thought about buying food, but I will say the price deterred me. read more

I've walked past the sign advertising the "black sesame latte" a hundred times and finally stopped in today. I should have kept walking. I mean, the place was packed -- so clearly it's a popular place to sit and chat and work. All the tables were full. But the coffee was not good. I didn't really taste "black sesame" at all -- just a lukewarm, slightly sweet latte. Husband got the London fog drink which was better. But considering I dropped almost $20 for two small drinks -- to go -- I was unimpressed read more
