Stop in for an espresso made with care, or grab a dozen of their flavor-packed cookies for the office, which are sure to impress clients and coworkers alike. I've always been a sucker for their gooey Chocolate Chunk Cookie, but today a coworker brought back the Korn Cookie, and I think I've found my new favorite! Crispy on the outside, simple, buttery and perfectly sugary on the inside. It's the kind of cookie that looks unassuming but delivers BIG on flavor. If you're in Midtown, Culture Espresso is absolutely worth the visit. (Barely remembered to snap a photo of my cookies before they were devoured!)

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!

When I went to pick it up, one of the staff members kindly pointed out that they actually have a drink called snowy jasmine, which is basically the same as what I ordered. Since my order came out to around $12, she patiently explained everything to me and even helped process a refund, then reordered it for me as the Snowy Jasmine instead. I ended up saving a couple of dollars, which I really appreciated. It might not seem like a big amount, but the fact that she took the time to let me know and help me fix the order really stood out. This is the best service I've experienced at 8ave so far!

The matcha flavor came through nicely, while the green tangerine added a bright, citrusy flavor that made the drink incredibly refreshing. It was lightly sweet with a little fizz, and the dried citrus garnish was a nice touch. The customer service was also great. I had a few questions about the drinks, and they were enthusiastically answered, which I really appreciated. I'm always happy when a coffee shop has interesting options for us non-coffee drinkers, and this one definitely delivered. I'll be back and would absolutely order the Green Tangerine Matcha Ade again.

Ten Thousand is a Korean chain (three spots in Manhattan now, plus outposts in Taipei and LA) and…read moreeveryone comes for the einspanner. I don't drink coffee. So I went in for the Green Tangerine Matcha Ade, which is the drink they should be talking about more. The green tangerine is the Jeju cheonggyul thing, the unripe fruit picked before it sweetens, so you get a sharper, almost yuzu-adjacent bitterness instead of orange juice sweetness. That's the right call against matcha. Grassy tea, tart citrus, light sugar, actual carbonation that hadn't gone flat by the time I got to the bottom. The matcha stayed suspended too, which is harder than it sounds in soda water. Dried citrus wheel on top is a real garnish, not a sad afterthought. Staff were genuinely into it. I asked what grade of matcha they use and how it's built, and got straight answers with zero eye-rolling. Rare at a counter-service spot at 1410 Broadway, where most places are just moving the garment district lunch crowd through. It's eight bucks for a fizzy tea. That's steep, and the room is basically a lobby cafe with very little seating, so this is a grab-and-walk-to-Bryant-Park situation, not a linger. Still, if you're a tea person stuck in a coffee city, this is one of the better cold matcha drinks in Midtown right now. Better balanced than Kijitora's peach fizz, which leans sweet. Order it, skip the seating, don't expect quiet.

Half this trip I saw duplicate pictures, and the other half of my pictures did NOT get uploaded or got uploaded to the wrong site. Then Yelp sent me an email... Quality/Quantity - Now, this is good beer!! Tasted a few of their beers, then settled on my usual Irish Red. Got my Irish Red - Darker than I expected, but with good flavors. And I didn't think this was even on the menu; see my pictures. 20% off food during Happy Hour from 1-5pm. Too bad there are no discounts for the beer, lol. Beer shot combo promotions; see my pictures. Flights available too. Ambiance - Decent size. I like the u-shaped bar. Busy, both with locals and tourists. Guess many day drinkers here, lol. The coffee shop in the mornings was closed when we got here. But I was here for the beer! Two unisex dark restrooms, not sure if it was done on purpose. My camera made it look brighter. Open 7 days a week from noon until 10pm, 11pm, or 1am. Private event space available; see their website. Service - The team did well. Engaging, considering how busy they were. Price - $22 + tip.

I probably never leave reviews in general, especially negative ones, but this experience was so…read moreegregious that I honestly felt like I had to say something. I've worked in restaurants and bars long enough to understand that staff drinking happens, but this was on another level entirely. I came in with a group of friends and one of the bartenders, Will, was so visibly drunk that it made the entire experience uncomfortable. Slurred speech, wobbling behind the bar, taking orders while chewing food with his mouth open -- it was honestly embarrassing to watch. He looked like he absolutely did not want to be there. At one point, my group had been trying to get his attention for another round for quite a while while he stood around talking with coworkers. We then watched staff take a shot together, and when he finally came over he burped mid-conversation and literally had whatever he had just been drinking dribbling down his neckbeard. That was the moment where the whole thing went from unprofessional to just gross. What made it worse was that it didn't seem isolated to one employee. Throughout the night we watched staff openly taking shots and drinking behind the bar like it was a house party instead of a business. There's a difference between bar culture and complete lack of professionalism, and this crossed that line hard. One of the friends I was with actually frequents the DUMBO location and said that the last time she was there, the same bartender also seemed intoxicated, which makes this feel less like a bad night and more like an ongoing issue. The DUMBO location itself is in an amazing spot, which makes it even more disappointing. But ownership seriously needs to get control of what's going on there before someone gets hurt or the place develops a reputation for having drunk staff on the clock. Unfortunately, the experience was uncomfortable enough that my girlfriends and I won't be coming back. I genuinely hope the employee mentioned gets help if this is a regular thing, because nobody should be working service in that condition.

I normally get another local brand of coffee beans (in BK), however, my husband decided to try this…read morebrand and bought two bags for $40 (mind you it's smaller and more expensive than the one I normally buy). One flavor smelled really good, and the one in this image smelled pretty light. I'm not sure what type of roast this is, I prefer medium roast coffee bean. Long story short, expresso shots are almost flavorless. the creme breaks apart each time and when I make a latte it just taste like milk with a splash of coffee. Super disappointed! I truly tried to like these coffee beans but I can't. I think it might be better for making an Americano...straight up coffee and skip the expresso shot. I have to give that a try
