    I stopped by 787 Coffee last Sunday before a visit to the Brant Foundation. It's a tiny coffee shop - maybe three or four small tables, with 6 or 8 chairs and a counter to order coffee at. I love that 787 highlights and celebrates Puerto Rican coffee culture (their beans are grown sustainably in Puerto Rico). I didn't love that it was so tiny (not a place you could expect to comfortably read a book, work, study, or hang out for a longer than a few minutes). I ordered an iced americano, and I wasn't aware that they serve their coffees in bags (rather than cups), but in the style of a Capri Sun from my childhood, I was soon drinking my coffee from a bag. I understand it's both a branding choice and a sustainability one, too (the pouches use 60% less plastic than traditional cups and lids), but I don't love walking around with a coffee in a bag. I'm perhaps just a bit too old to be walking around drinking my coffee out of a Capri Sun pouch? I like this location of 787 as a place to get a coffee on the go. Maybe I'll get used to drinking my coffee from a bag?

    787 Coffee shop is super tiny, but it has so much character. We stopped by to get a refreshing drink on this particularly hot day. They have some very cool wall art all over the walls, there's swings for seats as well as some comfy couches. My friend and I each got their iced Tamarind tea. These teas were $7 each. This isn't bubble tea, it's super basic tea, that comes in very fun packaging. This came in juice packs that are similar to Capri Sun. Sadly, it wasn't very good, or flavorful, it was super watered down. This was disappointing, since I know how this tea should taste and it was $7. Based on what the other customers purchased, it seems like all hot beverages come in traditional cups, and all the cold ones come in juice pouches. I do wish they would put a bit more focus on the quality of the product.

    The cutest and coziest coffee shop staffed by the nicest barista, Sofia. It's a very small shop but the coffee is delicious. They don't serve drip coffee though. Stop by for a drink and grab a giant cookie

    The barista had a shirt on that said..."Eat P***y Not Animals" Not only did they have a slamming coffee at a reasonable price ($3 for a large refill is great in NYC), but there were locations in several places in town. It was a nice roast from some kind of latin blend. As a coffee lover I found it to be a good batch that I could sip on all day. I did just that. I legit drank this coffee from 1pm to around 8pm (in ma thermal cup). It was a nice roast. A nice small shop and a nice blend of coffee.

    COQUITO LATTE. Yum. The staff is super friendly and gives you a neighbor discount. The sign for coquito latte drew me into the store. They sell it in bottles. The flavor is pretty strong so I decided to drink it in 2 servings with almond milk (not complaining to get 2 drinks out of it!) I love how the drinks are scolding hot - I was able to enjoy my hot drink right away. I'd return!

    Tiny but chill spot to grab a cuppa. I was able to snag the scenic window seat (with a swing). It's a fun seat to people-watch from, but terribly uncomfortable if you have to open a laptop. This location also doesn't have a restroom so you can't fully relax while sipping your coffee knowing that you'll have to pee afterwards. Luckily there's another (slightly larger) 787 Coffee location on 10th Ave with a restroom said the sweet and helpful barista at this location - just have to walk 5 blocks uptown and show your bright yellow and black 787 cup. Why didn't we go to that location instead? It's not as charming, no window swing seat there, and the bathroom (where the toilet is) is extremely tiny, like for an elementary school kid. I doubt my mom could squeeze into that lone little stall.

    787 Is a popular spot with three locations in the East Village alone (can't find the 110 2nd Ave location on Yelp). The 787 by Abe Lebewohl Park is in a great spot and it attracts a lot of foot traffic. It's good for getting work done in the morning during the workweek but definitely more difficult if you're coming on a Friday or weekend. I've been going here for a while now and their consistent Puerto Rican blend is a hit with longtime coffee lovers like my parents. More PROS: open late (8 PM), great seating outside, as well as cozy lighting/wooden tables While I appreciate the fun, new packaging of the plastic pouch, it is kind of silly to carry around. It makes it look like I'm drinking some sort of alcohol cooler at 9 in the morning. I wish they carried both options. I just can't give it five stars because sometimes there is only one person working which makes the line run a little slow. Also, their prices have steadily gone up over the years which is sad but they give a discount if you live or work in the neighborhood (or both!). It is for sure a fun spot to visit if you have time as they have stayed true to the local community by featuring special events as well as their Puerto Rican connection. I enjoy the Iced Americano as its clean and refreshing and the pasties selection if good despite sometimes not having black bean empanadas. Sometimes you'll get lucky with cookies coming right out of the oven, definitely makes it hard to say no.

    I popped in here with a friend as we were in the area. It's a super cute little coffee shop and I believe all of their coffee comes form Puerto Rico. They have a few tables and some swings at the front to sit at. They also have a few outlets in case you want to do work or charge your device. The staff was friendly and the chai latte I got was good, so I'll definitely come back again.

    $8 for a watered-down cappuccino! I can't believe I paid for a quad (4 shots) and it didn't even taste like it. It was also crowded and busy. There were only 2 people working behind the counter (1 person at the register taking orders + 1 person making every single coffee). Whatever system they have in place here clearly does NOT work because the person at the register was just verbally saying every part of each order to the person making the actual drinks. How is that efficient?

    The coffee was alright and I think it was slightly expensive (which I'm used to at this point). But I did not like the service honestly and it frustrated me. The employee kept asking me question after question when all I wanted was a cup of coffee. They also kept asking me if I'd want to purchase other things and if I would want to donate $5 (Almost the same amount of money as the coffee). I understand the sentiment but I would appreciate that they stop putting the customers on the spot like that and put them in extremely uncomfortable positions.

    Guava Quesito and Iced Latte
    JoAnn F.

    Loved the vibes and coffee here. The Guava Quesito is the best I have had in a VERYYYYY long time. Too bad they were sold out of Empanadas, as my son and I were really hungry. We arrived at 2 PM, and was told they sell out early. We purchased two bags of coffee. The Whiskey infused (great as a iced coffee) and their regular roast. I really enjoy coffee that isn't too bitter The art on the walls was lovely (loved the Campesinos). I was a bit bummed that they were not playing any type of latin music while we were there. Would have loved to hear some latin jazz or some salsa to show off our latin culture. Will def go again and look forward to visiting more locations

    Had the horchata coffee - didn't taste too good. The cafe itself was very cute and had a print spot.
