Update: Came back here after paying for a pickup order, which they declined to give me. Complete waste of 90 minutes of my life, scheduling around this food pickup. Infuriating. Same thing happened to the person who came in after me. No notice WHATSOEVER. SO rude. Will not return, obviously. Response to reply: still I did pay for this, and they gave us no food. Transaction unsuccessful, and again, a colossal waste of time/effort, and energy playing my day around coming here. No apology, either. It's simply rude and a waste of everyone's time/earnest effort-- and simply also bad business practice, despite whether you think it is your 'fault', vs the third party you are doing business with. read more

Arvaci coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Barista provided good costumer service, made my matcha latte with oat milk and honey extra strong at no extra cost with a smile on her face. The place is small, thus the speakers sounds more powerful and the relaxing music enhance the experience in this coffee shop. I dont drink coffee and i stay away from flour and sugar, but i do recommend their matcha latte 100%. read more

Arvaci coffee - Matcha latte with oat milk and honey, extra matcha* - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Adorable little semi-basement coffee shop in Murray Hill. I ordered a matcha latte and sipped it in the peaceful, dimly lit sitting area. The chalkboard menu, brick walls, and sultry ambience make for a very pleasant place to be! Highly recommend. read more

DELICIOUS matcha latte with almond milk! One of the most affordable ones in the city. The barista gave it the most incredible microfoam and the milk doesn't overpower the matcha flavor. It's very smooth and not at all bitter, while being slightly sweet naturally. The ambiance here is also 10/10. They have smooth jazz cafe music playing and the smell of fresh baked pastries wafts in the air. I wish this was in the west village as I would be a regular for sure. read more

Came only once but loved the cute and uniqueness of this small yet quaint coffee shop. We typically only get black coffee and like to try the pasties they offer. Here, we truly enjoyed both! The baristas were efficient yet polite as they took our order and handed us our drinks. They offer a few places to sit both indoors or outdoors. read more

I had the best cortado ever and took home a delicious bag of Arvaci beans. The barista was great. She gave service with a smile. Such a nice neighborhood vibe. Will be back. read more

Stopped by here on a whim while waiting for my laptop to be serviced, and I was pleasantly surprised with how delicious their Matcha Latte was. The cafe itself is a subbasement cafe, so there's a few steps, but it's almost street level so it's easily seen. I loved how when I went to order, the barista asked if I wanted oat milk. It's such a nice change to see barista's ask if I wanted oat milk instead of the typical regular milk. The barista did everything from accepting orders to making the drinks, so it might take a few more minutes to get your order. There is a charging station for your phone, so that was really convenient. There are a few seats/tables both inside the cafe and outside. There was a really cute almost rustic feel to the interior, and it felt like I was sitting inside someone's home. I believe there's also wifi so I did see a few people use their laptops while there. They also sell baked pierogis and other pastries- which all look delicious. read more

The matcha latte was goood. The shop was tucked away and a good local vibe. Lost a star because the barista literally laughed at me when I asked if they made tea lattes, if you don't make them that's fine! But laughing?? Still a good and chill vibe. They also had some food options that looked good! read more

Arvaci coffee - Iced matcha latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

I've tried many times to like this place because I've been told by a few people that they have great coffee and croissants. I don't know why it took me so many tries to finally decide that I won't be coming back. My first time there, I got an iced latte and it was honestly fine. Leans acidic. They have a lot of pastries to choose from here. We've tried their croissants and they're ok. Typical for a coffee shop croissant - not amazing, not terrible. The next time I went, I ordered a different kind of pastry (I forgot what it was called) and asked them to heat it up. I bit into it half an hour later when I got to my desk at work and it was literally rock hard. Clearly stale and not fresh. The third time, my partner and I came by because he needed caffeine, and we figured in a pinch this would be better than Starbucks. He ordered the cold brew and didn't even finish it. I wouldn't be able to finish it either. Starbucks cold brew is way better. All in all, I'm confused by the positive reviews after giving this place many chances and ending up disappointed every time. I won't be coming back! read more

I popped in here as it was in the vicinity of my doctors office. It's a cute little coffee shop hidden from the sidewalk. There are a few tables and benches to sit in on inside as well as a few tables outside. There is a bathroom as well and it seems like you can work here if you'd like (I didn't see any outlets though). I ordered the cinnamon roll, which was okay but nothing special. I also ordered the chai latte with oat milk which was also decent. The woman who took my order was nice. read more

Stopped here on my way to AMC and got a hot vanilla latte. Honestly it was not really good but it was a nice atmosphere and really friendly barista working. read more

I love this coffee shop. I'm glad I stumbled upon it in this area. Their half-basement venue gives this place a cozy mom-and-pop shop feel. I later found out that they do have other locations besides this one - the other one's in the Garment District. I ordered their cappuccino which was nice and smooth. I like the cozy space but just beware that there aren't that many seats inside. It's the perfect place to grab-and-go a nice cup of coffee and pastries. read more

The environment still as good.. as someone that comes here regularly as I go to the equinox to workout not far from here, the coffee is getting worse, and worse.. The last three times I have been here all tasted more like milk with a slight taste of coffee, than actual latte.. or mocha(one of the worst I've ever had). For people that need coffee, strongly NOT recommended. Edit: Well since the owner is calling me fake at least there's a cup I got from this place yesterday which was the reason of my disappointed post.. the equinox I go to is on the same street - Park Ave which is 2 minutes from here. This response of yours literally reminded me how bad the coffee was again, and I'm not even a picky coffee drinker... as a small business owner if you can't even handle this level of criticism you scale and potential of business is.. let's put it this way.. not very bright :) btw I used to like you guys to the degree when my friends come around to the kips bay area I used to take them there, not anymore I guess :) this response of yours will definitely be shared. read more

Arvaci coffee - The so called "latte" that tastes like completely milk + water that just rinsed a coffee mug :) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Arvaci coffee - **NEW LOCATION - Brooklyn ** Soft Opening - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

What an awesome hidden away cafe! The very kind barista told me it has been open three months. Nice little working and relaxing spaces inside and outside. They were out of cold brew, so I got an iced americano instead which was great. Mushroom quiche was delicious!! They are open 7am-5pm seven days a week so you can stop in for an early morning, before work coffee, an afternoon pick me up, or grab a pastry on your way home! Seriously cannot way to return to Arvaci, which I know will be often since I work a three minute walk from the shop! read more

Arvaci coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

It's too good! Finally a quiet coffee shop with seats serving TOP NOTCH coffee. It's a hidden gem that if you blink you might miss it but I hope you don't! A must visit if you happen to be in the kips bay / Murray hill area. 5 STARS read more

The flowers and decor on the entrance give a grand feeling, but the outlet itself is very small and can just seat 4-5 people at max and a standing capacity of another 4 people. It's more like a to-go coffee place. The barista looked disinterested and could be easily felt that from the coffee preparation or the lack thereof! The biggest cortado I have ever had - defeats the purpose of the coffee style. I hope they work and improve their barista skills. read more

When in NYC, I always look for small businesses with unique spins on food and drink. Their specialty coffee is the Arvaci, a coffee with brown sugar and something else (I completely forgot oops) but it was delicious. I asked the person at the front (Robin, a very kind person!) what pastry he recommends and he said he had just baked the cinnamon buns. The cafe has limited seating, but was relatively empty on a rainy Saturday morning. It's a great coffee shop and there seems to be a handful of regulars that entered when I sat down to enjoy my breakfast. This is a wonderful small cafe that I would highly recommend if you are in the area. read more

I discovered this place with my son while wandering from an appointment, and it is a really wonderful place to step into, away from the bustle of the area, get a coffee and just relax and decompress. Even though it's nowhere near my office, I have walked a mile out of my way to stop in. I don't waste my time writing many reviews, but this place is worth it in the best way. No hoardes of students or tech bros on laptops, no blasting of bad music, no "grammers" trying to photograph their food or coffee. And frankly, I'm amazed, because the coffee is outstanding, and the quiche-tarts and other offerings were shockingly good (though I mainly go for the coffee). On top of it all, the people who work here are insanely nice. Every time I'm there, they seem to be staffed by young people who actually talk to customers, instead of burying their heads in their phones. The last time I was there, I was ended up in a long conversation with with the young woman there (Ana.), who was one of the most impressive, outgoing, well-spoken and kindest souls I've ever met, especially for someone her age. If the world had more people like her (and the others who work here) as well as more coffee shops like this one, the world would be a better place. I hope I can continue to frequent this place for years to come when I can get there. Thank you to the owners and Ana. for making my day a little brighter. read more

One of the best croissants I've had in the city. I was walking by and noticed the "fresh baked croissants" sign and stopped in. Croissant was big, super fresh, and light (they will heat it up if you like). Also had a delicious unsweetened iced tea. Great gem in the area! Right around the corner from an NYU imaging center if you need a treat after a test - bonus! read more

Tried the pecan tart, and it was not good at all. It tasted like it was refrigerated or had been frozen for a while. Had an after-taste. I threw away 8 bucks. Also, customer service was disappointing. read more

Friendly folks, good coffee, very chill spot. Just what I needed as I waited for my son to get through an appointment in the neighborhood.

Murray Hill venue: very cute spot, nicely decorated, pastries are good and the staff are lovely but the coffee really lets it down. I agree with other reviewer who said all the coffee drinks basically taste the same and usually too milky. These are not well trained baristas (which they should be for the price!) read more
