Inside
Divya K.

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.

Quality coffee shop a bit away from the craziness of Times Square. Service was quick and friendly and coffee was tasty! Everything I could have asked for.

Alisa J.

Absolutely loved this shop. The coffee was strong but delicious. The latte art was beautiful and I was super impressed. The beet latte was delicious as well. The service was so nice absolutely loved our barista. Shop is small and no bathroom. Would definitely go back.

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.

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.

Latte with oat milk

Never been but it was around the block from our hotel and I was already packed and ready to return home in SoCal. For me, a perfect latte with the most amazing foam illustration. The single barista even let me videotape her while she "created".

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.

Seating area

Nice coffee shop near Times Square. I liked the vibe and the coffee. Courteous and efficient staff

Hot chocolate
Michelle T.

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.

Oat milk Latte
Edwin J.

Loved this small, homey coffee shop. Great coffee and genuinely nice baristas who make you feel welcome. Would absolutely visit again when I'm back in town.

Autumn L.

The coffee was pretty good, but the baristas were so sweet! One of them went out of their way to make me a seahorse in my milk even though I was getting it to go. I can't wait to visit and go back!

Cappuccino
Olivia B.

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.

What espresso dreams are made of. The tiniest of coffee spots that packs the punch to get you through the day. Service was great!

Excellent Cortado! They know how to pull a shot. Yelp says that I need 36 more characters, but that's all I have to say.
