My review is solely based on the food and drink I had. I went to this coffee shop that was a little…read morefurther away than one closer (coming from Rye), and I decided to go here vs the local coffee shop in downtown Rye based on reviews. I ordered a matcha latte, blueberry muffin, and egg bites. The matcha latte was awful. Based on reviews I read, a few mention how good it is, but mine pretty much tasted like a hot milk drink, barely any matcha. I am a matcha connoisseur and have had very very good matcha, and I am pretty picky. If this is you at all, then I suggest to skip. It's just not good. I ended up tossing it The egg bites- they were $11, and they were Kirkland Signature brand. Wish I didn't see that. They were fine, but $11 is pretty much robbery. Also, they were still cold when I bit into it :(. If all you need to do is heat it, then heat them thoroughly?.. The blueberry muffin was fine. According to another review, they are sourced from Balthazar. Cannot confirm or deny. Service was friendly, and the shop itself is cute. Maybe the coffee here is better? But not sure, and doubt I'll be back to ever know.

Nestled in the quaint and friendly town of Bronxville lies Slave To The Grind, a coffee shop that…read moreis nowhere near as pretentious as it's neighboring shops and customer service focused beyond belief. The shop is small and regularly has a line (which some might tend to get annoyed about but...) -it's because the coffee is THAT good. The cafe has a few tables in the front area, a few more in the back of the shop and some quality bar seating throughout making it a place to chill with friends or do some homework/meetings on your remote days. The quality of the coffee at Slave has never let me down, from buying beans by the pound from an abundant variety to the fresh brews that also have quite an impressive variety each day, the place is tailored to coffee addicts. Similar to the "other" coffee shops, these baristas can make your very specific coffee drink and it will be right on and delicious. They know their coffee at Slave To The Grind. If you get the chance, try some of their incredible pastry selection, especially the scones. You will never leave disappointed after consuming one of those British belly bombs, designed perfectly to be consumed with a hot cup O' Joe, served with a smile. Some folks have rated Slave below 5 stars but, that is likely because they are cranky, wannabe-coffee-aficionados who believe all coffee shops cannot turn over their inventory without having to provide "sell by" dates and paint pretty pictures all over the bean dispensers so they are entertained. They probably judge books by their covers and walk their cats around on leashes too... You be the judge! Try it and you'll see exactly how wrong they are to give Slave To The Grind anything but 5 stars. Delicious coffee, great service, warm atmosphere and solid eats to top it all off. Don't listen to the noise - listen to your own review. You'll love it a latte! I promise.

Slave to the Grind seems to be essential about the coffee and more about the experience. It's…read moreclearly a longtime Bronxville staple with a loyal following. The staff is welcoming and attentive, the space looks like it is always buzzing, and really gives you the feel of this is THE coffee shop in town. Where it falls short is in the cup. The coffee itself lacked freshness and the walls were lined with coffee beans that looked as if they had been sitting there for years with no clear dates to validate their freshness. There's plenty of choice on paper, but without roast dates or origin details, it's hard to know what you're getting--and the flavor reflects that. The brew came off dull, smoky, and overworked rather than expressive or balanced considering the advertised flavors and the price point. If you're looking for a comfortable place to sit, catch up with a friend, or soak in a classic small-town café vibe, this place delivers. But if great coffee is the goal, I'd head elsewhere. Enjoy the atmosphere--but temper your expectations when it comes to what's in the cup.

Three stars. This spot is super popular during tourist season largely because of the TikTok hype,…read morebut the space itself is pretty small and stuffy. Because it was so cramped, we couldn't easily browse or try some of the other items we had our eyes on, like the samosas or empanadas. We ended up getting the Cheeky Monkey, which was a decent little bite, and tried a couple of their specialty drinks. The "Chaider" (apple cider with chai) was alright--pretty much exactly what you'd expect it to taste like. On the other hand, the "Mud Wrestle," which sounded promising as chocolate milk blended with espresso, was a major letdown and just tasted like a watery slush. Overall, it's not terrible, but between the cramped atmosphere and the misses on the menu, it just wasn't worth the hype or the money.

I have been passing this place for the last few years, waiting for them to open. I'm glad they…read morefinally did! I've been a few times, and I was pleasantly surprised on my visit. They had samples of drinks they made on the counter. They have an array of baked goods from local bakers. They also have a vast coffee menu that is posted on their wall. They have a few tables inside, where you can sit and relax while you have a drink and snack. The drinks are amazing and the baked goods are freshly stocked weekly. The owners are the same owners of Ice Cream Social, which is only a few blocks away. I highly recommend stopping here if you haven't yet.

I just got into town from LA on a red-eye through Chicago, so needless to say, I needed to…read morecaffeinate to function for the rest of the day. Coffee Social came up as near the hotel, and I liked the idea of a place that encouraged you to come in and work. It's an adorable spot, and I think it has a lot of potential, but it needs work to get there, particularly on the service end. LA has one of the strongest coffee cultures around, so admittedly I'm a bit spoiled, but it seems like more training needs to happen. A few training suggestions for management: 1. Greet your customers like you're happy to see them. In this case, the barista wasn't unfriendly, but I can't say there was much enthusiasm or passion for what they were doing. (Update: Watched another customer come in and come right up to the register--not sure the barista even said hello to her.) 2. Wash your hands. If you're eating food as a barista--or wiping tables or whatever--before you take care of anybody, wash your hands. In this case, the barista was eating their pizza and immediately moved to the register and then to making drinks. Washing your hands is Food Service 101, and I have to say this really put me off. 3. Be proactive rather than reactive. When people leave and their table is dirty (technically, any table that's had a person at it should get a wipe), wipe it down instead of surfing/texting/whatever on your phone. Or when I order food (see #5), maybe anticipate and tell me where the napkins are--they're only obvious from the front. Or if you see someone with a laptop computer, assume they will probably need the Wi-Fi and let them know where the code is. 4. If I ask about a drink, maybe tell me something about it. For example, if I ask about a mocha, five-star service might tell me how many shots are in each size. (There's really only a single shot in a 12 oz mocha?!) 5. Maybe do some tastings of the food you carry so that the baristas know a little about it. My barista had never had the egg salad wrap--which was honest--but they seemed indifferent to my ordering food in general. Another review mentioned that the food items are locally made, which is something to be proud of and amplified to customers. In short, they answered direct questions, but that was about it--reactive, not proactive. Ultimately, I was here to work for a while, so I ordered a 16 oz mocha which ostensibly had 2 shots of espresso (the barista said they could add one) and an egg salad wrap from the case. Unfortunately, serving the mocha in a to-go cup with a sealed lid removes any chance of cool latte art (not sure that this barista would have been up for the challenge anyway). Taste was OK--better than Starbucks--but it felt as if it lacked the coffee notes I get in my mochas back home. The wrap, which came from Ladle of Love, was fine, if a bit heavier than I expected. In short, it's a comfortable and pretty environment with good Wi-Fi, reasonable prices and some outlet access, which makes it good for working. But at least based on my experience, the overall approach to service--at least on the day I was here--is holding it back.

I'm giving this spot five stars because it honestly surprise me with how simple it was but the food was pretty good. The two chocolates, sandwich, and drink all came out to $25, which is not bad in today's economy! The service was also friendly!
