I've visited Frisson Espresso a few times now and it is really wonderful. Both the hot and iced lattes are well made and the espresso itself is bold and strong without being bitter. It has a wonderful flavor. The space is simple and there is some seating to enjoy your coffee in house. The walls are adorned with some famous clientele that has visited. If you're a coffee fan, Frisson Espresso is a must try. read more

cortado (~$6) - strong smooth and fragrant - usually it would be too strong or sour but i liked this roast; not watery at all rating: 4/5 - tucked away in hell's kitchen; honestly a good hidden gem - space is small but could sit up to 8 people? Has plenty of outlets too and tables for you to work - standard service; ambiance is alright; not a place id stay long IG: @nom.noms.only read more

Delicious espresso and Ube latte made fast and fresh to order! This cute little shop is located in Hell's Kitchen and has a few seating options in a cozy atmosphere but we saw plenty of people grab their coffee to go. We also had their croissant sandwiches and both were delicious, served warmed. Thanks for a lovely morning! read more

By happenstance I stumbled upon Frisson Espresso on my early afternoon outing. I have been craving an iced matcha and found the right place. The customer service is top tier, noting that conversation between employees also stayed positive and upbeat. I love to see it. I can tell the environment here is so pleasant and welcoming, it seems like regulars come back because of this. I ordered an iced matcha with oat milk and 2 pumps of simple syrup, it had good balance and would definitely be open to trying their strawberry matcha when I return! read more

Super small and cute cafe. Surprisingly decent amount of seating in such a small space. I got a matcha latte to stay. The two other people in the cafe had glass cups. I was given paper. So were the people that came after me. I wonder why? The matcha was made very strong. I liked it. I really needed to use the bathroom, but unfortunately There is no bathroom available. That really sucked! Im not sure I'd go out if my way to come here. read more

Good iced Carmel latte and Japanese style cold brew. Very friendly service. Would definitely go back.

Great tasting coffee, cool vibes and attentive staff. Small coffee shop but they have sufficient options to satisfy most needs. Nestled close to time square but far enough to not feel gimicky and cater to locals. read more

Low stars because the coffee I got here was kind of burnt. Might have been a bad day but also the croissants I got weren't fresh and pretty plain. I got a latte with one pump of lavendar syrup (+75 cents). It was super subtle so I asked for another pump and was asked to pay another 75 cents. Makes sense I guess but most coffee shops I've been to have made minor adjustments to my drink for free. read more

Cute coffee shop with a variety of coffee options! There's also a good number of pastries/cookies as well along with outlets. There's also is limited seating indoors, so I wouldn't recommend bringing large parties. I ordered the iced americano and it was good! I recommend stopping by for a quick coffee. read more

Ten years later, and I still stop by Frisson for my daily[1] cortado. (And sometimes for a pastry.) This is a coffee shop I'm loyal to, and they've earned it through tasty coffee and solid customer service. Here's to ten years of Frisson Espresso, and to ten more! [1] That is, when I'm in the neighborhood, since I don't live in Hell's Kitchen anymore (as of press time). Even though I'm an irregular regular, their staff somehow remembers me. read more

This is my second time trying our Frisson and both times have been pretty great. To my knowledge, this is probably the best espresso around the broadway area. If you're going to see a show and need a little pick-me-up before going to the theatre, this is close enough to walk to. read more

Stopped by before work to grab a latte to go. There was an ipad by the entrance to place orders. I decided to wait on the short line and ordered with the barista - friendly and efficient. Surprisingly very short wait considering they made a latte art. read more

Great location for coffee and snacks near Times Square... since it's between 8-9th, it feels gloriously removed from the crowds. Charming, small, cozy with some seating (we didn't have a problem securing seats, but maybe that's because Saturday matinees were in progress, meaning maybe the timing was in our favor). Great hot chocolate! Will be back. Note: some of their locations are not properly tagged in maps app including this location. read more

Great service from Frisson and lots of amazing pictures to look at on the walls. The location is very convenient, though the place is pretty tiny and more suited for grab and go than sitting, the seating is very limited. The cappuccino was good, though my friend who had a vanilla latte was not impressed, nor was I when I tried it. read more

If you're a devoted fan of Dunkins or Starbucks,this isn't for you. Frisson Espresso -like most other coffee roasters - are for true coffee afficionados. It's small,tucked away from the city's hustle & bustle, appears to be family owned and only known for locals (I didn't meet a single tourist when inside),There was a long line of folks waiting for their cup of coffee,but thanks to very quick service it was moving rapidly. Coffee is perfectly balanced,just the way I like it (light/medium roast blends available in freshly roasted bean bags for purchase,too). One of a few places selling canneles (not cannolis), which made me super happy! Despite small size,inside and outside looks very cozy and inviting! read more

One of the best coffee and overall experiences I had in NYC. This is one of the very few that lived up to the hype and exceeded expectations. I was very pleased. Found them on Yelp - closeby - was looking for some really good coffee. It's a small quaint place. The staff here were very effervescent. Full of energy, very positive. I couldn't make a decision so they helped me out - he's the barista and an artist too - he recommended a Flat White with Oat and sugar free vanilla. Yes! That cup of Flat White Sugar Free Vanilla w/ Oat Milk was the best damn cup of coffee I've had since I could remember. It was just so robust and full of flavor. I loved the depth of their coffee, so smooth, nice strong notes, and I could drink this forever! It was so darn good I got another one to go. The croissants ham n cheese look so good, and so do their sweets and pastries - wow. This place left an impression on me so when I traveled back to NYC the following week I made it a priority to make it back there - and had another great experience. Again I ordered one there and another to go since it was so good and bought some of their expresso beans too. A very pleasant and nice place, with excellent coffee and customer service. I will definitely be back here - - excellent job! read more

Cute, small on side street in the Broadway area. Nice people, fast service. We went there post meal and pre show. I think it's a little funkier than Dunkin or Starbucks which are both in the area. We did try a pastry it was a tiny bit stale. But still tasted good. The coffees were good - not as strong / burnt Starbucks. I'd go again. read more

The coffee was excellent and so was the service, pretty cool little shop. The atmosphere was very upbeat.

Was in desperate need of a hot coffee and stumbled upon this wonderful little neighborhood coffee shop. I decided to get a hot mocha with oat milk and it was perfect, not too strong not too sweet. Just smooth and really lovely. I also got a canele which is the first I've ever had in my life and I had to google search what it was exactly. I have nothing else to compare it to but I can say that I really enjoyed it. It was spongey and moist and had a delicious custardy filling. Highly recommend. read more

Very small quaint coffee shop. Service was amazing. My espresso macchiato was fantastic. Not an espresso macchiato like you think of that Starbucks has not a giant coffee with sugar. It's just a little shot with some cream. So good. Soft music playing. They have some great food options too. Acai bowls and amazing overnight oats with heavy cinnamon and bananas no dairy almond milk, no sugar. read more

Looked promising. Pretty big letdown for somewhere that has espresso in its name. My boyfriend's coffee was just ok. I ordered a drink with oat milk in it and the girl used regular milk. It was clearly printed on my receipt. I had to point it out to her. read more

I am so happy I stumbled onto this place. The service was great, no complaints there. I got a drink and sat at a table for a bit to enjoy it. There was quite a few tables inside.
