It deserves every bit of the praise it gets. It's not overly sweet, the texture is absolutely perfect, and you can really taste the quality of the chocolate. I'm usually not someone who can eat a lot of desserts because I find them too sweet, but I couldn't stop eating this cookie. It was genuinely one of the best I've ever had. I also ordered a matcha latte, and it was excellent. I loved that they prepared it the traditional way, whisking it by hand instead of using a machine. It made a noticeable difference in both the flavor and texture. Honestly, this cookie alone is worth coming back to New York for. Highly recommended!

There is a wide and interesting selection of blends to choose from and the vintage displays are such a charming touch!

Definitely will be revisiting Paquita the next time I'm in NYC.

My friend recommended this spot to me, and I did not know that New York had a place like this!…read moreLocated in the west side, this shop offers a wide selection of unique teas and some small bites. The interior itself is antique, quaint, and there's minimal (but some!) seating for you to enjoy your tea at. One of my favorite parts of this shop is that their tea menu is all around the shop, right on their walls. So, you walk around the shop, look at the different teas (organized by type, caffinated/non-caffinated), smell them, and read the labels. I had a lot of fun doing this! Their prices are good and their teas are amazing. Definitely a cool experience!

They are a standard classic bagel in nyc -- good if you've never had a proper nyc bagel. Not the best though. What brings me back here again and again are their sandwiches which are AMAZING. I usually get the Chipotle chicken or the wasabi cc and lox-- both are delicious. They are not cheap with the stuffing and the food is fresh. Definitely worth a try and there are many combinations to try

I've had Ten Thousand Coffee on my to-go list for the LONGEST. I finally went for the first time…read moreand there were so many drinks I wanted to try so I ended up buying 3. 1. The Jeju Green Tangerine Matcha honestly just tastes like a tangerine selter drink but in the best way, because I don't typically enjoy seltzer or carbonated beverages. I really enjoy the flavor and the carbonation isn't too strong, probably because I brought it home to drink. I don't really taste the matcha but I would definitely still order this again. 2. Matcha Einspanner. This is my first time having an Einspanner so I have no idea what I was expecting but this is DELICIOUS. It's so silky and smooth and the TASTE is just right up my alley. The matcha is light but you can still taste it. Absolutely, would drink this all the time if I could. 3. Purple Sweet Potato Latte. This. This. Omg, why haven't I tried this sooner?! The first sip and initial taste, I almost tasted nothing, just milk. And then all of a sudden, there's an explosion of flavor in your mouth. As a sweet potato lover, I was in heaven. I have absolutely no words for this drink, just try it. 100/10 recommend. This is probably my favorite one out of the 3 that I bought. I went around ... 2:45PM on a Friday and most of the seats were taken, if I remember correctly. There were a decent amount of seats and the space was decent. I liked the minimal aesthetic they had for the design of the interior. Not to forget, the staff at the register was absolutely wonderful, she answered all my questions, she's so sweet. I think I'm disappointed that I haven't tried this place sooner. Y'all get out of your comfort zone and try the Purple Sweet Potato Latte !! Or if not, just try this place out. I will definitely be recommending the Purple Sweet Potato Latte to all my family and friends.

The shop was nice and clean and it wasn't too busy when we stopped by…read more I ordered the tiramisu einspänner, which was exactly what it sounded like a generous dollop of tiramisu on top of an einspänner latte. While it was a fun and unique drink, I probably should have opted for something else. The topping was literally like actual tiramisu rather than just tiramisu flavoring, and it felt like there was more ice and tiramisu than latte. Personally, I would have preferred more of the tiramisu flavor without the full tiramisu texture mixed into the drink. That said, it was an interesting concept and I'm glad I tried it. I'd definitely be open to coming back and trying another latte on a future visit.

Walking the streets close to my hotel I stumbled across a big PuertoRican flag infront of a…read morebusiness and I knew I wanted to check out what it was. It happened to be 787 Coffee which I have visited plenty of times on the island and enjoy. With excitement and in Spanish I tell the cashier that I was happy to come across this place as I have tried them out in PR. How is it that this "jibara" apparently from Maricao, spoke to me in broken English while I am talking to her in our native language, total fail. Anyhow, I ordered the coquito hot latte with an extra shot of rum and oat milk, fine, I paid $11 for a very small coffee. Now what I can't believe is that the quesito pastry was $8. I really wanted it but it was not until I paid that I then noticed the price. I sat to eat it while I waited for my name to be called as mentioned by the cashier. I walked around looking at everything, the music very loud and hard for people sitting to have conversations, the place is very colorful and with many PR sayings, however the place also feels very Americanized with the music and layout. I still awaited my name to be called minutes later, but nothing. I approached the cashier, who was just standing there, to ask about my coffee and she wasn't able to tell me so she asked the barista steps away from her. He pointed to a cofre sitting on their counter, it had my name, and when I pointed out that I was waiting for my name to be called, she shrugged her shoulders and smiled like she didn't care. The coffee by now was not all that hot, I never tasted any rum or coquito flavor and felt I wasted my time at this place. What's more upsetting is that I left a nice tip for a service that was not provided. They couldn't even bring the coffee ti my table once they realized it was sitting there and they forgot to call my name. You can find better service elsewhere.

After brunch, wandering with that satisfied, unhurried feeling, I stepped inside for the first time--and instantly understood the quiet devotion it inspires. The space hums softly with the rhythm of New York on the move, yet somehow manages to feel calm, intentional, and inviting. The chai latte was pure bliss: fragrant, warmly spiced, and flawlessly balanced--not overly sweet, not timid, but deeply comforting with every sip. It felt crafted rather than poured, the kind of drink that makes you slow down despite yourself. Surrounding it was an irresistible array of sweet treats and beautifully prepared coffee options, each promising (and delivering) the same level of care and quality. Variety doesn't just meet expectations--it glides past them with ease. Effortlessly cool and unfussy, this is the kind of café New Yorkers crave: a place to recharge, linger if you can, or simply grab something exceptional on the way to the next thing. Variety is more than a coffee stop--it's a moment of calm excellence in the heart of the city.
