I grew up in CT and around the corner from my house was a CT Muffin. I went there almost everyday for 5 years. I am happy to report that this location's offerings are identical to the CT CT Muffins. My absolutely favorite muffin on the planet is CT Muffin's BANANA CHOCOLATE CHIP. Their muffins are incredibly moist and always live up to expectation. I'm partial to cappuccinos and they make a great one. I love their espresso. I also loved the welcoming atmosphere and incredible menu. I'll be back!! read more

This was my first time really eating in the area. I pass by here all the time. I was actually on the way home and it was kinda cold and I was kinda hungry with no food in the house. I decided I better eat before I get home. There are some benches outside but they might as well move those inside because that "outside seating" weather is gone! The lady at the desk was friendly and I ended up getting Vanilla Chai with a shot of Esssspresssooo-good. It was delicious. Ya know not everyone can crank out a good Chai drink. I don't know which base they use here but it was good. Not too spicy, which I don't like. It wasn't overly sweet either. I got the "vanilla" but I really didn't discern a "vanilla" taste per se. Then why stop there? I decided to get a toasted raisin bagel with "butta". They do have a small seating area in the back and most of the seats were taken except for 2. I helped myself to one and slowly enjoyed my meal as I read my book. Other seats that were occupado had folks with laptops on it, so i assume there is free wifi. It's relatively quiet. However the seats aren't comfortable to the point where I would park myself here for hours. read more

Did I come on a bad day? Maybe. But even if I did, there is no excuse to selling their cinnamon sticks that felt like carton and tasted like one. Just not fresh and I mean seriously not fresh. Haven't been here for a long time. And came especially here to get their cappuccino and cinnamon sticks. So the sticks were not fresh, and the cappuccino was very watery. You just taste something is missing. Sitting area is very nice. Saw many people working at the back. I'm guessing they also wished coffee would be better. read more

I used to live in the area and on occasion still work in the area. This has been my local go to for coffee for years. Quick and friendly staff that always make the line move fast. Besides coffee, they have some decent food and sandwich options. I love their egg and cheese sandwiches and bagels. As an added bonus, there is a bakery in the back so it always smells great in there. So stop by and have a cup of coffee and bite to eat. read more

I love this place. Friendly employees (I admit I'm particularly partial to the sweet and beautiful Eastern European barista who works here), and it's a great "office" for me for remote work in these Covid times. My only complaint is the bagels -- at least the whole wheat ones I prefer -- are not so great. Tastes store-bought, and don't seem to be boiled, which wouldn't qualify it as a bagel. (The other flavors have that tell-tale sheen indicative of proper bagel making.). I'm a bit of a bagel purist. Everything else on the menu is tasty. read more

Connecticut Muffin is my go-to coffee joint in the neighborhood. They have pastries, muffins, cake, bagels, paninis, etc. I am a big fan of their chocolate cupcake. As for coffee, I usually just get a regular coffee. It's not the best coffee but it does the job. I would recommend getting the coffee with steamed milk. It makes a difference. read more

I stopped here to pick up coffee during my work day. The large iced coffee was a pretty big size and they added just a little skim milk, as I had asked! I also picked up a cinnamon twist and lemon poppyseed muffin (I only tried the muffin and it was pretty good). There was a large selection of sweets available. I noticed that there was an iPad screen by the register promoting some rewards program (Belly, I think it was called?). I tried to sign up on the spot with my email, as it said you can redeem 50 points towards a free muffin or coffee. I never received the email confirmation and was unable to proceed with that. Something to keep in mind when you're going in to order. I will try it again during my next visit. read more

I've visited this restaurant many times - all CT Muffin locations are operated by individual franchise owners and this is the location nearest my home. Last week I decided to take a short walk and get some coffee to break up my day a bit, since I've been working from home for months. I've always felt safe in this restaurant during COVID, since they've seemed to be following precautions and there are multiple signs stating that masks are required. When I was waiting in line, I noticed there were two people sitting at the small counter in front of the window, which is just about 3 feet from the door and the payment area. The two people looked like they had been eating but were now just drinking iced coffees and chatting, and neither of them were wearing masks. While I was still waiting in a line of 3-4 people, one of them walked past me so closely on her way to the bathroom that I needed to step aside. She was wearing her mask around her wrist. I asked her to please put her mask on, she ignored me. She walked by me a second time to return to the front of the store; I asked her again and she ignored me. I raised my voice (not proud of it) and asked her again, and by that point tensions flared and we started yelling at one another. None of the staff said anything at all, they basically ignored the entire situation. There didn't appear to be a manager there and I completely understand why the staff would be tired of dealing with people refusing to wear masks. It should be management's job to handle situations like this. I left, very upset, and later attempted to contact the franchise owner by phone, to no avail. I also reached out via social media but never received a reply. I'm leaving this review only after having made attempts to speak with the owner directly. Here in NYC, we've lost many precious loved ones, colleagues, and neighbors to COVID-19, and we're beginning to see increased transmission rates in and around the specific area this franchise is located. Our restaurant reopening regulations have been limited to outdoor eating, delivery, and pick-ups only until at least Sept 30th 2020. Not only were these people eating indoors, they were seated in a place that made social distancing impossible because they were arms length from the front entrance/exit and the payment area. It was frustrating as a customer and also incredibly sad and frightening to see other people unwilling to do such a simple thing to protect others, even when the mask is readily accessible and they're not eating or doing anything that might prevent them from doing so. It's disgraceful that Connecticut Muffin would allow this to happen when they specifically post signs requiring the wearing of masks and they are breaking the law by allowing incidents like this to occur. I'll never return to this restaurant; plenty of other places in the neighborhood actually respect their customers and do their best to protect the safety of their customers and staff. read more

We have been to this Connecticut Muffin several times over the years (usually in the winter) and know that we can always be assured of coffee that is not bitter and baked goods that are fresh and tasty. The inside of the restaurant is quite comfortable with great wooden tables and nice decorations. I don't know if this happens regularly, but last Sunday it was very warm inside the restautant (perhaps the air conditioning was broken?). Luckily we found a place on one of the benches in front of the store where we enjoyed our bagels and coffee (though if management reads this, one of the benches was more like a seesaw as it was placed on an uneven bulkhead door and no blocks were put under the bench to compensate). Service is quite friendly but a bit slow. But otherwise it is a great place to chill on a Sunday morning...or any other morning you have time to visit! read more

So I may have found a new coffee shop, as I'm always on Cortelyou. Connecticut Muffin is the perfect venue in the bustle of all the new Cortelyou additions. Even though they are a chain store I still feel like they are better quality than Dunkin or Starbucks. I order an iced/hot coffee daily. The coffee is perfectly bold, strong and rather tasty. It is also priced very reasonable. I've ordered sandwiches a couple of times and I feel like their rolls/spreads/veggies are definitely better quality. The tuna sandwich is great and so is the egg sandwich. I haven't tasted their muffins so I can not write about those, but they look fresh. I also like that this location has space and tables so if you want to grab a coffee and work on your laptop or read a book you can do it in peace over here. I will say that although customer service is usually great, with employees being friendly and fast there is one that I try to avoid. I feel like a shot of espresso prior to their shift may change the attitude. Overall, if you want high quality coffee for a good price in this neighborhood, this is the place to go. read more

Friendly customer service. I really like that the barista remembers my order. They occasionally take their time with your order BUT I've never had a mistake with my order so I don't mind trading a few moments for accuracy. I really like blueberry bagels and either they rarely order them or they sell out quickly because rarely ever have any. It's pretty disappointing considering I do not patron the other bagel shop down the street. read more

They are not Starbucks, which is great, they are not Starbucks, which is bad! Free Wi-Fi, which I think that in today's economic is a must. A coffee which is good enough to turn a morning into a bearable one. They do their job, and they have good food. The place is clean, and the people here ALWAYS SMILE. And this is something rare, since many times in coffee places people make you feel that the last thing they want to do right now is to make coffee for you. Just be careful, very often the coffee just come out too sweet. Take less than you think you are going to need. Love coffee places where the staff smile ;) read more

I can only speak for this location. The coffee is horrible and overpriced. I just got an iced coffee this morning; thinking it would be nice and fresh. It was definitely there from last night. It had coffee grains on the bottom and just made me sick to my stomach. A small cup of gross coffee is 3 bucks. I would stay away from their coffee. The one star goes to their egg and cheese on a croissant. It's really yummy and I would only go there for that. read more

I like the decor and the vibe. The staff was very nice. I had an iced cappuccino with a quad shot. It was pretty good. Good presentation and the taste was decent. It was a little bitter but still refreshing. While a quad shot could tend to pull it to the more bitter side a great iced Capp would still have the balance. Once I added sweetener it was perfect. For me a 5 star Capp does not need a sweetener to it the spot. Overall solid iced drink and I will continue to come here. read more

Let me start off by saying that the staff is inefficient...no "Good Morning" or any type of customer service. They just look at you. But on to my story. I came in this morning for a iced caramel latte with skim milk. The barista was a short more on the heavier side girl who apparently hates to smile. She prepared me the latte which had little white things floating around which is when milk has expired. I point it out to her and she stated "that's how the milk looks" ummmm lol yes expired milk. She goes on to say she'll prepare me another one if I would like. Of course I would like another latte without milk that is not expired. SHE USES THE SAME MILK. I'm looking at her as if she had two heads. I open up the lid and of course it has the white things. I taste and I again told her the milk is expired. She starts walking around cleaning the counter and throwing out the lattes. She takes the milk out the fridge and states that it is not expired. So I stated that the latte tasted bad and it is because the milk is expired. At the end, I opted for a tea because I didn't want any of the other items that contained milk. She stated she couldn't refund me the difference but she could give me a cookie which I accepted. Of course she had to show me she was pissed off so she hurdled the bagged cookie on the counter and asked the next customer what they wanted. I told her she didn't have to throw it at me. This place could do better. The customer is always right. AND BY THE WAY, I WORKED FOR THIS COMPANY IN 2008. I knew I always had to make sure the customer left satisfied. Management really needs to take make sure their staff is efficient and has excellent customer service. I guess I'll have to reach out to my old boss ‍ read more

I was really excited to give Cotti another try after my first experience (the latte was really good). I've tried quite a few drinks from this location: Stardust Oolong Latte, Cloud Mousse Matcha Latte, Pandan Coco Latte, Cloud Mousse Pandan Crema Latte, and Coco Cotti. One thing they have in common is how milk-forward they are. So milk-forward that my Pandan Coco Latte was white instead of green! The Stardust Oolong Latte sadly tasted like straight-up milk with no Oolong taste at all. The Pandan Coco Latte tasted like a coconut latte, which isn't bad, but I would like to taste the Pandan. Overall, I think there's potential because their espresso is good, but the milk overpowers any other flavor by a lot. With so much competition in the area, I think you can do better for the price unless they make improvements. I'll give it another chance in the future, but for now, I'll be taking a break from Cotti.

I never had a nutty, chocolatey tea flavor combo before so it was refreshing to taste.

There is all sorts of antique and vintage looking items adorning the lower counter and outer walls of the place. The barista Mel, behind the counter was super friendly and very accommodating. She explained every drink and food I asked about. Gave great recommendations and superb service. I ended up getting the mozzarella, tomato and basil pesto on a ciabatta roll, a chocolate croissant and a cinnamon latte. The sandwich was Delicious and made fresh, the croissant was super chocolatey, and flakey I loved it. The coffee wasn't necessarily my favorite but that's ok. The vibe in there was so chill with great music. I loved the simplicity of this cafe. I will be frequenting this place often now as it's close to home and would highly recommend you to as well:)

It was nice of them to come out with a candle as well so friend can make her wish. The lava cake was a little heavy but the ice cream helped, the crepe cake was also delicious.

Been a regular here for years now and this place holds a special place in my heart. My all time…read morefavorite desserts are here that are found nowhere else. The star of the show: purple yam souffle with vanilla ice cream is chefs kiss!! I thought I couldn't like any dessert more than their chocolate molten lava cake but this one definitely takes the spot. Top two desserts they have! Even when I had lava cakes at fancy establishments, it doesn't hold a candle to prince tea house! Their crepe cakes are also alright but I've found the to be less unique and enjoyable especially the brown sugar boba which sometimes comes out in clumps hard to pour onto the cake. Their food selection is decent for sandwiches like chicken katsu and also fries. Their fruity teas aren't my style but their hot milk teas are amazing. The lavender green tea was more green tea which was disappointing, hoped to taste more lavender. The best one is the rose lovers milk tea, literally perfection each time. Unfortunately, this place may no longer be my usual. My favorite part of this place is that the serves don't really care about you in the sense that the bring you food and leave you alone. However, they now impose mandatory 20% tip on all tables even for table of 1 or 2. This location only. As someone who realizes the servers here simply bring food and nothing else here (which I actually love as I don't like to be bothered) but expect a high mandatory tip, this is not the way to go. Especially since there have been numerous occasions where servers are nowhere to be seen and refuse to service you for something as simple as napkins or a check if they're not your server, this is an absurd addition. Definitely visiting less now that this happened. The most bothersome is that it's mandatory. Doesn't seem right/ethical and makes it feel less genuine. Had the pleasure of visiting other prince tea house locations and the service seems better, even water without asking, surprising cash discount, and most importantly: don't impose this mandatory tip! Not sure what changed here but not what it used to be with this and it needs to change. TDLR: -best options here: rose lovers milk teas, chocolate lava cake, purple yam soufflé -major con: new mandated 20% tip!! on all tables, even table of 1 or 2, which is unheard of at other prince tea house locations and even fancy restaurants!

I got a matcha latte unsweetened thinking it was like a matcha from DD where the matcha is already sweet. It was plain but I fixed it with 2 splendas.

The drink I usually get here is the mango coconut grapefruit. It is so good and refreshing. The guava drink has a cheese foam on top. They give you a straw to drink It's better drink from the sippy cup because you get to taste the cheese foam. There are no chairs or tables in the store, just fyi! You can order the drinks via app, kiosks or in person! Another thing I should mentioned because I witnessed a customer was not happy with their drink because of the sugar level, the customer talked to the staff, staff is willing to make another drink free of charge but customer insisting to pay. It was a miscommunication but their interaction is so wholesome. Understand standing staff and understand customer!

I ordered avocado toast with eggs and a pastry. The only real positive was the bread itself, which was fresh, large, and actually tasted good. Unfortunately, that is where the positives ended. Although the avocado seemed less generic than standard store-bought guacamole, the taste was not good. The eggs were terrible -- they looked very unappetizing, tasted awful, and appeared nothing like the photo shown on Grubhub. The same photo also showed a small side salad, but no salad was included. I requested chili oil, and that was missing as well. The added cheese had virtually no flavor, so overall the dish felt careless, incomplete, and extremely unsatisfactory. I also checked the box requesting utensils, but no utensils or napkins were included. However, to be clear, this review is not about forgotten utensils. It is about the overall lack of quality, attention to detail, and customer care. The pastry was another culinary failure. It was sold under the French name -"Pan Au Raisin" but it was nothing like what real "Pain Aux Raisins " supposed to be, it was bland, greasy, oily and missing the traditional custard base plus it was delivered in an undersized paper envelope that left the food exposed, a clear violation of basic sanitary standards for food transport. Most importantly, this order caused me stomach pain and GI upset. This was the only food I had eaten in a 24-hour period, and more than 24 hours later I still felt unwell. The owner's reply to my original review was patronizing, dismissive, and refused to take any real accountability. Instead of addressing the food quality issues, the missing items, the poor packaging, and the physical reaction I had to the order, the response tried to reduce the entire problem to utensils and push the conversation into private email. I am keeping this public so other customers can make an informed decision. I wanted to support a new local business, but the bad taste, poor execution, misleading presentation, lack of care, and dismissive management made that impossible. Based on this experience, I would not order again and would not recommend this place to friends or family.
