While we were waiting to be seated for breakfast at another café, we decided to grab coffee nearby and enjoy the outdoor atmosphere of the business district. We found this coffee spot close by and stopped in, and it turned out to be a fun little surprise. Inside, they were playing Russian music, which instantly boosted our mood. It felt unexpected and funny to be in New York, grabbing coffee while Russian songs were playing. That alone made the experience memorable. The coffee itself was fine. Nothing extraordinary, but definitely not bad either. If you're in the area and need a quick coffee, it's a decent option. I didn't try the food, so I can't really comment on that, but overall it was a pleasant stop. P.S. I liked the design on their cups! read more

Was walking past to a different establishment and saw that they had pistachio cold brew. This is a very small space but service is quick. This pistachio cold brew was delicious! I added cinnamon & coconut milk to bring out the nutty flavor. I returned the next day and ordered their salted caramel shaken espresso. I will miss this coffee for the rest of my life!! read more

Matto Espresso - Date and Iced Banana Date Latte and a Tropical Harmony Smoothie - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

My girlfriend and I saw this little hole-in-the-wall coffee shop just before we went to get breakfast, and at first glance, it seemed like we were going to start another day with a great coffee and great breakfast, but both of us could not be more disappointed. My girlfriend Just got a regular iced chai latte and after her first sip could tell it was just made from a low quality powder, and I got a double shot of espresso in hopes of continuing my streak of amazing espresso this trip and was severely disappointed. Would not recommend. read more

Super small spot but great coffee and options. I got a banana iced espresso with oat milk and dates. It was perfect to start the morning and quick service. Loved the mirrors and ceiling decorations too. read more

There are several locations throughout the city, but this one has the friendliest staff. Even when they are busy, service is quick. The place is small. I think it only has one table. But it is not really a dine-in place. I enjoyed their coffee and delicious confections! They have such a wide selection such as potato bureka, frittata, banana walnut loaf, buttery croissants, and so on. Overall 4 stars. read more

the $3 menu is hands down incredible for the price--lattes are high quality and they don't charge extra for oat milk. the drinks are produced quickly and the baristas are always nice. while you cannot add flavored syrups without the $3 menu, you can add simple syrup/sugar in the cafe if you prefer sweeter drinks read more

Nice person helping me with my order. Almond croissant was delicious! My friend bought 4 pastries and she said they were all very good.

Saw this place on IG and decided to give it a try. $2.50 for any coffee?! Awesome. Unfortunately it wasn't good at all. Even though they have an actual espresso machine, they used a super automatic (press a button for espresso) which gave very watery espresso. I ordered an iced Vanilla latte with whole milk however the latte didn't have any vanilla flavor. read more

1/1 Service; 2.5/3 Food; 1/1 Value Matto Espresso is a coffee chain that caters to a variety of diets on a budget. This location does not have seating, so, like many other Mattos, it is a grab-and-go affair. This location is clean and hygienic. Everything is advertised as costing $2.50, but that is if you order through the app ($3.50 at the cashier). However, the staff was really nice and patient as some of the members in my group downloaded and ordered through the app instead. At my other visits, I've had the coffees which are very good, especially given the price. They rotate some unique flavors from time to time, which can be a hit or a miss (keeping in mind the price), but the classics they do exceptionally well. Plus, they do not charge extra for non-dairy alternatives. I had a cold-pressed "energy booster" juice, while one friend had the cold-pressed "skinny green" juice and another the strawberry lemonade. The energy booster was good, but left an almost medicinal aftertaste. Overall, we all enjoyed our beverages. Matto is an incredible value considering that it's hard to even find drip coffees for $2.50 in the city. Overall, it's worth (re)visiting for a drink or pastry on the run! read more

Update: They are open on weekends now as well. One of the best deals in the city. Using the app about 2 blocks away ensures my order is ready by the time I arrive (no matter how busy they are) read more

Banana Date latte is great. All their prices are very affordable. The staff are friendly and service is quick

This was a horrible experience. Little space, over priced and the guy working the register was curt and rude. I received an email asking me for feedback so I told him about how rude the guy was and they sent me another follow up message saying I hope you find a good alternative. See attached screenshot. What is that? read more

I was around the area and saw this little shop that recently opened up and currently offering free coffee. My fat soul couldn't resist baked goods so i purchased a buttered croissant, who can resist a big fluffy croissant for less than $3! The staff was very friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed the breakfast and will definitely stop by again to try the other selections! read more

I asked the hotel concierge for a coffee shop recommendation and he said "Matto". Was a few steps from my hotel and quaint. This is a simple place with really good coffee and the kicker is "everything is $2.50" (when you use the mobile app) $3.50 in Store. The whole menu! This is coffee, pastries, and food perfection. read more

I've been visiting this place a lot since it opened because of its ongoing free coffee promotion! The barista is super friendly and pretty quick when making the drinks. My favorite drink so far has been the iced latte with oat milk! The espresso really shines and goes well with the oat milk. Plus it doesn't destroy my stomach since it's lactose-free haha This time I got an iced Americano and an Almond Chocolate Croissant. The iced americano was pretty refreshing! I do wish it was a bit stronger but hey -- it was free. The almond croissant was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside :) the barista heated up for me so the chocolate on the inside was a bit melted and gooey which was delicious! There were sliced almonds on top which added a nice crunch! It was not the best croissant I ever had but for the price point ($2.75), it was pretty worth! I believe almost everything on the menu is $2.75 but if you use the app to pay, all items are $2! There's also a $4 minimum charge if you want to use a credit card! Even after the free coffee promotion is over, I will definitely go to this place whenever I crave coffee since it's such a good price! read more

A new taste treat discovered in the frozen banana latte; exactly as it sounds. This tiny shop is modest and serves up both hot and cold coffees with kindness at an extremely reasonable price! Stop in this little shop and try something new, or tried and true! read more

Really good coffee shop with great prices! They make an amazing potato boureka which is one of my favorites there!

For two dollars and fifty cents, you really can't beat the quality and flavor of Matto's coffee. I got the date & banana latte, and it is one of the most interesting flavor combinations I've had in a coffee drink. If you're between Matto and one of the nearby franchise/chain coffee places in the area, definitely go for Matto. read more

Cheap Good Coffee! Perfect for students who are in a budget and need a pick me up before class.

Great spot for good espresso without the eyewash. Great grab and go selection too. Perfect!

Do NOT go here if you're Asian. If I could give zero stars I would. We were denied service by a blonde employee who claimed that the store was closed. We understood and left. When we passed by the store again less than 10 minutes later, she was serving a customer (Caucasian) who told us that he just walked in and ordered. We walked in to ask if they were serving customers again. She looked us in the eyes and said "We just closed again," with a smile. Disappointed and shook as nearby locals. This is NOT NYC. @owners, this was Sunday, 7/25, at 10:30 AM. read more

Love their summer iced oat banana latte made with dates (that is no refined sugar!). Natural treat without anything processed that's bad for me. Service was friendly. Highly recommend. read more

Matto Espresso - I love here. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

I love the coffee, I love the baked goods BUT l can't get over some of the employees attitudes. One time a man closed 30 min earlier and sat on his phone, another day that same man walked out on the store to hang out at the lash spot next door. I was alone in the shop for at least 5 min waiting for him to return. Today, a woman looked at me like I had 3 heads (literally up and down with attitude) when I asked for a toasted muffin with butter & did not make me feel welcome. By the way she never put the butter or explained why she couldn't, she barely toasted it for a few seconds and bagged it. It's unfortunate how employees can really effect a persons decision making when simply wanting to get a coffee. I will record my next encounter but management should really get to the bottom of this unacceptable behavior!!! Treat people with respect! If you don't like your job get a new one. read more

If you're looking for a coffee and a snack, run to this place. I love this place. First of all the quality of the coffee and the pastries are great. I also love the customer service. It doesn't matter at which location or what time the staff is always very courteous and professional. The best thing is I could get a redeye and an impossible sandwich for five dollars. You can't beat that anywhere. I have gone to other coffee shops around here especially one on Wall Street where I felt I needed to show that I had a royal card in order to even buy coffee there. This place is not like that. I love how I could go there many times without breaking the bank. I don't even know how this company makes money. I am glad they expanding. read more

I love love this spot!! Affordable (and tasty) coffee and treats, and such friendly staff! They have dairy alternative and gluten free options as well, all while keeping prices 50%+ below most other coffee places. Downloading & ordering from the app makes everything just $2.

I love Matto! I was in dire need of coffee and I finally got to try their pistachio muffin and it was delicious.

The Matto on John Street is great. The employees there are very nice and I am always satisfied with what I ordered.

Clean & Conveniently close to our hotel Artezen for delicious morning coffee & fresh tasting blueberry muffins.

there are a few times in life i have been in a committed relationship with a new coffee place and i would have to say me and matto espresso ( in financial district) made it official this weekend. As a runner I run by this place all the time and have taken picturesque few times to try to remember to go back. The front has an ad for a banana latte which caught my eye ( i mean i'm not gonna order it i just found it unique). I saw a tiktok about how everything at this place is $2 this past week and was determined to go review it. My boyfriend and I went on Saturday and I got a latte and he got a hot tea. They were out of the sleeves and he made a comment that it's affordable but at what cost (haha dramatic I think his tea was just hot). We paid over $2 but went back the next day and he got an iced matcha and I got a strawberry lemonade. We downloaded the app this time and when you order through the app everything of any size is $2!!!!!! with any non dairy milk!!! that's wild as I've been paying $7 for a medium iced latte at my local Joe and the Juice everyday. I asked the barista how they're making money and she joked it's all about giving you guys what you want and when you get the app you get two free items. She mentioned they've been opening locations all over the city. I have to say it's going to be hard for me to find a place that competes with getting coffee/ muffins/ pastries/ matcha/ many hot teas/ and more of any size for just $2. okay i can keep going but i have to go into work now. try this place out !!! read more

Excellent coffee and really cool atmosphere. The person behind the bar was very kind and welcoming.

Amazing coffee and super cheap! If you're tired of paying $7 for a late then you're in the right place. Everything g in the store in $2.50 if you order with the app. And it good! read more

The iced banana oat latte, which is what they're known for, is really good. It's not as sweet as you might think and super refreshing on a balmy summer morning. They also have a great assortment of pastries. I've only tried the potato borek, which is a Turkish potato-filled phyllo pastry - it's something I'd never heard of before so I was intrigued. The borek is very savory and not something I typically want first thing in the morning, but nevertheless still delicious, especially when eaten warm (they'll heat it up for you if you ask). This is a lovely addition to the neighborhood and I hope they're able to stick around! read more

The man who works here always calls me and my friends beautiful and quickly remembers names and faces if you come frequently. He makes the store so vibey and comfortable and of course the coffee is to die here. I really like the avocado sandwich and a classic iced latte but if you like chai lattes and haven't tried the one from here PLEASE DO! read more

This place has been my go-to cafe beating out Starbucks, Dunkin's, Joe & the Juice, etc. The prices are unbeatable for what you get but also for NYC. I love that I can grab a vegan burger (on the smaller side) and my daily dose of caffeine for less than $5. The chai latte is made with dairy-free milk so the barista tells me and its absolutely addictive. The baristas are all super nice and friendly as well! read more
