Not only is this my favorite place to get coffee in the morning, but the staff and manager make this location the best coffee spot in NYC! The team here is kind and friendly every single time I pick up my coffee. I've never encountered a better coffee environment that picks you up in the morning just when you need it most! Thank you for creating such a great spot! The coffee is amazing and the team here is even better! Thank you for being excellent! read more

I was excited just looking at the menu because there were so many coffee options. I went with the Hall and Oats which was delicious. Highly recommend. And very fair price for coffee in the city, especially because it's cold brew. I also love that the website provides full nutrition info. Even though it's a chain, it was better than some $6 coffee I get elsewhere in the city. read more

Gregory's coffee is an extremely convenient stop on my way to work and I am so thankful that they are open at 6 am because a lot of other shops do not open until 7. I think this is because Gregory's is a chain as opposed to a locally owned shop, nevertheless, it's convenient. However, what's not convenient about Gregory's coffee is the price and the really filthy bathroom. When you come into a coffee shop at 6:15 am and the bathroom is absolutely filthy with a vanity that looks like a gas station bathroom with the most offensive smells, you know that this bathroom was A) not cleaned that morning before opening the shop and B) not cleaned the night before when the staff went home because from 6 am to 615 am I doubt someone went into the bathroom and wrecked it. The gross bathroom is consistent too. Also, there are no hooks to hang your coat or bags in the bathroom so when you go in, you are most certainly not putting anything on the floor so you have to hold your giant purse on your lap, it makes the convenient coffee shop on your way to work, not so convenient. It's a shame because I think the set up of Gregory's is cool. I like the high top table seating in the entryway. They have a lot of goodies in their food window. Protein balls, fancy toasts, baked goods galore. They also have water bottles, hard boiled eggs and some other things in their refrigerated section. They almost always have bananas on the counter too. They have a house blend, which is what I always get. I think their coffee is a little expensive, however. $3.10 for a medium is steep. I don't know if they are charging me an additional fee for the almond milk I have added, but I always ask for the teeniest drop so now I am curious if that's why the cup seems so expensive. Also, even with a sleeve on the cup, it is very difficult to hold for three avenues, burns my hand and I've been in the restaurant business for years, my nerve endings in my hand are minimal due to burns in the past so if I think the cup is hot, others have to agree tenfold. So moral of the story is, their coffee is really good, their blend is unique and delicious. If they cleaned their bathroom and added a hook it would make a world of difference. Also a couple smiling faces behind the counter wouldn't be the end of the world. read more

I have been a loyal customer of this location pre-COVID because my office is in the same building until I experienced something I couldn't believe today. As I was waiting for my latte, I saw the barista (tall guy) removed his mask and spit. I was shocked because I could not believe what I was seeing. Next, I was called to pick up my coffee. I told him "I saw what you did. I want a refund." He told me they can't give me a refund and made another lousy looking one for me. Since I did not feel comfortable drinking the latte he made me, so I told the cashier about seeing him spit into my coffee. The cashier says that's impossible and obviously was trying to cover for him. I asked to see their manager. The manager did not seem sorry about what I experienced. He just quickly made me another lousy looking latte with the wrong milk that I requested. No apologies from anyone of them. I'm very disappointed because I can't believe this is how they treat their customers. I wish I still have the coffee as the evidence. But the surveillance camera should have that recorded. To the management, if you care enough about your brand's image and reputation, think twice about who you hire to represent your brand. To the customers, make sure you tip well enough to not get saliva in your coffee. read more

You can find decent coffee most places in New York if you're willing to look and I've written maybe 3 Yelp reviews ever. I had to reset my password to write this. When politely asked for a review, and I asked them for everyone's names because they really do make for a special experience and the least I can do is say something nice when each employee tries to remember my order when I walk in the door and I keep being annoying and switching it. I work nearby and come here a lot. Andrew - manages everyone and they all seem to like him which I could never pull off, so... that's amazing. Sara - also manages like a boss and knows how to run a team. Nails my latte every time I get one. Drew - will always ask if I want to add a chocolate drizzle onto the ridiculous mocha I order just to make it more fun. Juan - usually on in the evenings and seems super chill. Chanel - there all the time, is beyond kind, and usually makes the aforementioned ridiculous mocha I need at 1pm. Erika - whips things up super quick at the espresso machine. Crystal - has energy I could never have at 8am and could make Gail Devers cry with her nail game. Ashley - super kind and I'd follow her dog on Instagram if I had that. Dillan - usually on in the AM and also super chill and knows my order before I do. This Gregory's location is truly exceptional for the service and the people that work here. Gregory's Coffee is a decent size chain, but this shop feels like a much more intimate shop with the way they treat you. read more

Coffee is above average, service was really good! The place definitely has a cool and young vibe to it. I'm a harsh coffee critic so 5/5 stars is super rare for me. I got the Fall Oat Boy, super yummy flavoring! read more

Great service and employees at this location. Great coffee choices. Always enjoy my coffee from here.

So I didn't know this was a coffee chain, but that's no matter, I tried the iced coffee with the hint of nutella in it and it was absolutely fantastic. The inside of this shop was really nice, and the baristas were super friendly to everyone. Def wouldn't mind stopping in again next time I'm in the city for another iced coffee. read more

Today my wife told me she saw the barista spit into her coffee, presumably because she didn't leave a tip. I guess this is Gregory's way to inform their customer that if you don't tip, you don't deserve Gregory's. I wish this individual and his love ones will enjoys the same hospitality everywhere they go. read more

Came here for a quick drink with a friend and ordered the matcha latte. It already comes with almond milk which is awesome!! At other shops, I always have to ask them to substitute the milk. One thing I love about their latte is that it comes unsweetened so I can adjust the sweetness level to my own liking (sweetness is one thing I can't get adjusted when I order a green tea latte at Starbucks). Also the shop itself is warm and cozy - great place for catching up with a friend! read more

Gregorys Coffee - Matcha Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Qhaliq was soooooo amazing. Super friendly and gave prompt service!!!! The only downside to this place is the broken AC. It is ridiculously hot for no reason!!! I was there eating for 30 minutes and and my shirt was soaked by the time I left. I was so frustrated bc all I wanted to do was enjoy my iced coffee and my vegan burrito. Honestly it is unacceptable for it to be like this and I can only imagine how the workers feel. Seriously fix the AC asap!!! read more

Bold and smooth drip coffee. Not too many tables when I walked in at 2:30pm on a weekday so don't pick this spot if you're in need of a seat. Grabbed an almond bite for a paleo snack and it was delicious (a bit pricey at $3.50) Some fun looking lattes and drinks, including one with CBD oil! read more

Their salted caramel cold brew is pre made and way too sweet. If you want a non sweet coffee that tastes like coffee I would go to any of the other coffee places in the neighborhood. read more

The job had a special going with Gregory's coffee so I decided to oblige. I've walked past this place weekly for close to 3 years and have never went in since I am kinda loyal to Starbucks. The staff at the counter was super friendly and was more than happy to explain all the matchup of coffees and teas. They also offer various baked goods but lords knows I love a good iced chai latte but this time I decided to get it "dirty". A dirty chai has a shot of espresso and hit the spot for my afternoon pickup. The small but well decorated coffee shop is great for coffee dates and offline meetings. I will be sure to make this my new coffee spot, just wished there were more locations throughout the five boros. read more

Gregorys Coffee - Two iced dirty chai lattes ( soy milk and vanilla flavored) - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Got the drip coffee with soy milk, not good at all. Tasted burnt and they put ice cold milk in there so the coffee was room temp after.

I work down the street and whenever I need coffee this is the spot to go , I always get the filthy chai with a glazed donut and it's the best combination I've ever had , definitely coming back here always for a nice iced chai and great service . read more

Gregorys Coffee - Filthy chai with almond milk - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

First time here, last time here! Ordered a hot matcha- 1) did not taste good- tasted like water 2) they made it blistering hot- couldn't even drink it for over 30 minutes. This was likely part of why it didn't taste good! When you boil almond milk it become watery. I burnt my mouth trying to drink it after it had already been sitting w/ the lid off for over 15 minutes. I ended up just throwing it out and leaving. I had walked over hoping to find a good new work location. I planned to sit down and work and have a good matcha! The woman next to me also exclaimed how hot her coffee was. Very disappointing read more

I work in food service so I understand like, being lethargic at the end of your shift. My vanilla latte that was $8 was watery as shit. Couldn't taste the coffee. I asked the barista guy what he recommended for a croissant sandwich and if it was worth $7 for the tiny croissant sandwich. His response is "I don't know. It's whatever. Do you want to try it?" Go to Starbucks and have acid reflux and it'll be a better experience. read more

I've heard so many good things about this spot so had to check it out myself. I got a pumpkin latte with soy milk and my cousin got a mocha. Both drinks were really good. I love that my drink wasn't super sweet which is what I feel from getting starbucks PSL. The service is executional too. Very friendly baristas! I loved the set up of this one. We chose to sit near the window and it was a small table with bar stools facing the window so you can peopl read more

I had the best pumpkin spice latte here of the season! The homemade pumpkin syrup they use truly makes a difference, a perfect blend of pumpkin and spices. read more

While I think Fika and Cafe M make better coffee in the general vicinity, it's not that bad at all. Pretty good mint tea also, a bit sweet but otherwise good. read more

Great spot for some finely-crafted espresso beverages and comfy seating. We've come here a few times on weekends to plan upcoming trips, and it has generally been a chill environment, save the occasional screaming small human. We last stopped in on Mothers' Day, and they had some complementary brownie samples available in light of the occasion. I had a medium latte, and it was massive for the price. I feel like a medium here might be a large elsewhere. The espresso is obviously quality, the overall latte product smooth. Splenda, my sweetener of choice, was available, which his not always the case. They also had Sugar in the Raw. My boyfriend had the Morning Boost smoothie that contained so much granola, I would nearly classify it as a solid. He really enjoyed it. 4.5 stars, really. read more

This is a nice coffee shop with a very hipster vibe, the lights are a little dim, and there are what looks to be repurporsed wood for table tops. The coffee is good, and in particular, the cold brew is quite smooth. If you get their flavored cold brews, don't worry about any over powering sweetness, it is more like a hint (and if you want it sweeter, you can add sugar). The service was quick, but I did come at a very quiet time of day. I also got the double chocolate cookie, and I found it to be slightly chalky and much too sweet. All in all, not a bad coffee shop, and a good spot to wait for someone. Note: you need a code to open the bathroom. read more

Every time Im in town I stop by a Gregorys and am happy I randomly decided to visit a new one. What a cute spot with a sweet and talkative team!!!! They started baking now in store and I got a just out of the oven blueberry muffin and oh my, what a treat.... read more

Background: Basically a better Starbucks that can be found in any part of Manhattan with offices nearby. The good: -Lots of baked goods, freshly baked/made. At the end of the day (after 5 or 6pm I think) they offer 50% off to get rid of the leftovers. -Many vegan, non-dairy, and gluten free options--best selection of the coffee shops scattered around midtown, in my opinion. The vegan and GF items are now clearly marked in the display case with green labels (but not all are vegan AND GF so read the text). -Vegan treats include: cranberry coconut scone, lemon poppy seed pound cake, energy bites (most of them, get the choco buckwheat or pb banana!), and vegan bar (get this!). -Calories/dietary restrictions on the food labels and full nutritional information online. -Reasonable prices for the area. -Nice workers. -Free wifi. -They're on LevelUp and they also have their own app. $5 credit for your first trip + spend $50 and get a $5 credit. The bad: -Sometimes things are out of stock, especially toward the end of the day. -The Gregory's Coffee locations are all very different, so one location may be bright and spacious, while another is cramped. -A true coffee shop that closes early, so if you want to catch up on work in the evening you'll have to head elsewhere. Recommend? Yes! One of the only midtown Manhattan chains I really like. read more

This place is trendy without being overly crowded with tourists and hipsters. Wonderful open faced toast selection. I ordered the spicy avo toast and the honey badger cold brew. My friend got the honey bee toast. Deceivingly we thought the honey bee would be a little sweet and it would be the perfect compliment to the savory spicy avo toast but the honey bee toast had black pepper on it which I actually really liked. I wanted to venture out and try something unique and tried to order the beet latte with oat milk. The barista told me to not order it because it reminded him of wRm tomato soup. so I opted out. Overall great experience. read more

They refuse to disclose how many Gregorys there are* Redeemed a $2 LevelUp credit here for their s'more[s] cookie, which fell right out of the pouch they placed it in onto the floor (due to improper production, per the staff who laughed it off and handed me another with no hesitation). Would definitely go 5 stars if the cookie itself was better. Transaction Amount $2.00 Credit Applied -- $2.00 *No apostrophe read more

Almond bite looked good, so I ordered it, with a small coffee. Cashier asked for $6.50. I asked how much the almond bite was. She says "like $3.00". I say ""like" $3.00? How much is it?" She says she will give me a receipt. Receipt shows $3.50. I tell cashier. She ignores me. Coffee not bad, almond bite not very good. Won't go back. read more

What's the value-prop of the coffee shop that is not Starbucks? We're local, we're hipper, you're hipper, you're too smart to give your money and time and physical presence to a corporate monster? Great, all fine, but when not backed up with solid coffee, it's all for naught. * Loud music at 6.25am * I must do my own payment work, typing and tapping and signing on an iPad that spins back and forth * Et encore, du café absolument éxecrable! Stale. Unforgivable. I can let all the rest go, the hipper-than-thou attitude, the up-sell, the stupid music... but not the coffee. How hard IS it to make a decent cup of coffee? Why must the grounds be so stale that they are past bitter and well into sour? Conclusion: the folks working there, and likely the owners, must not really like coffee themselves. They should go work at Dunkin Donuts. read more

All my trips o NY and I see this coffee shop everywhere, but never tried it. My sister ended up going and we are now hooked. Their dirty chai with almond milk is amazing. You can taste the tea and the espresso, but if all blends in so well together. We went back to try the turmeric latte and have no regrets, it has just the right kick of ginger, and the mix of milk and honey is just right. I recommend it! Also, part of the experience was the barista. I appreciated that he confirmed my order before making it because I realized my order wasn't entirely right. read more

Gregorys Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Latte was great. I love thick foam and they got it right without my asking. The actual coffee was boldish but smooth and didn't have a bitter aftertaste. The ambiance is pretty good for a cafe, ample seating, easy but on trend music that isn't blasting so you can hear yourself. And they have outlets. And free WiFi. I love the decor as it's a bit dreamy but dark and has pops of colour. It really reflects NYC even though it is in midtown and is a bit corporate. I'd rate it 8/10. read more

Super cute place. Lots of seating and space. The hot chocolate i had was delish. It's is a business area so you'll see a lot of suits roaming about. All up, a very good place for a casual meeting (like what I had) or casual catchup. read more

Decent coffee, courteous service, clean space. Sadly, absolutely inedible yogurt parfait at breakfast time this morning. Hours later I'm still wondering how they managed to turn Greek yogurt, berries, and granola into something that tasted like moldy library paste (or what I imagine that would taste like). Tossed two of them right in the trash - not a good start to the day for my breakfast guest and me. Do better! read more

I got my go to drink this summer which has been the salted caramel cold brew and was immediately disgusted with the first sip. It didn't taste like the drink I've had many times before, it was gritty and chalky (no taste of cold brew whatsoever). When I asked the barista to confirm the drink, he immediately had a snappy attitude and response saying that's why he asked if I wanted any sugar and they reformulated to make it in house. I told him I was unaware they changed the recipe because it does not taste even close to the drink I've had before. I kindly asked if we can modify it, since it was undrinkable. The other barista stepped in and said she can add more caramel, it was a nice gesture however sadly it did not help with the taste nor the grittiness. As I took my drink back and was about to leave, the barista then stops me and says "and just so you know, this is going to taste like this from now on" with an eye roll. Such terrible customer service, I won't be returning to my go to spot anymore. read more

I usually get coffee from other spots in the area, but when I stop by because of convenience, I'm always satisfied. The lines in the morning are annoying, but they have fresh baked pastries that are unique and I think that's what sets them apart. Definitely better than Starbucks. Their Aeropressed single origins are pretty good. The espresso here is very robust here but a charred note? I usually get a cortado and some sugar or a cappuccino (very smooth here). Their Walnut Banana Bread is really good, not too dense. They also have a giant Rice Krispie treat made with Chex, which is my guilty pleasure. They woo me now and again by dropping $2 in my LevelUp account every few months. There is a lot of space to sit/work with laptops, but they are usually taken. I have to say this place has some of the happiest workers I've ever encountered, they are always smiling and friendly to everyone! They're never impatient when waiting for your order and also offer suggestions if you're new. Lastly, the tall brunette lady that walks around (manager) is also very friendly and warm to everyone. In fact, she made my Aeropressed coffee one day! Thank you! Recommended: Banana Walnut Bread, Cappuccino, Aeropressed single origins, Cold Brew, Iced Teas, Chex Rice Crispie read more

Mocha was really good and just sweet enough, there was a good study/hangout space, and plenty of pastry options

Went here recently and was very happy with the amount of vegan baked goods. All the baked goods were clearly labeled if they are vegan, gluten-free, etc. I got the coconut, cranberry scone which is both vegan and gluten free and it was quite delicious. I also got a matcha latte which is made with almond milk. I like that the drinks are clearly labeled as vegan but they also off many dairy free milk options so I imagine most can be modified to be vegan. I did find the service to be slow and the space was a little cramp but I would come again for a vegan treat and a latte. read more

Be ready to wait if you are getting coffee in the AM. Good grief are they SLOW. Super friendly staff and great with taking your order, but then you wait...and wait...and wait. Baristas are going as fast as they can but they can't seem keep up with volume with the equipment they have. Also. If you are used to Starbucks coffee, this will be a shock. Everything is much stronger and borders on bitter at times. Definitely an acquired taste. I had the caramel latte and it was hard to taste the caramel or anything else but bitter coffee. Their goodies are delicious, superior to Starbucks however, so ill continue to visit this location when i cant get to my regular places. (It's closest to my work) but only when I have time to spare. read more

Great coffee. I'm obsessed with their lattes, it's a different in a good way. Nice to know they have a reward program. Also, this place is right by my job so I go there often and I noticed that they're very attentive and help you as soon as you walk in. You know, since everyone is in a hurry in nyc. I've ordered food a couple times, 5 stars for food also. read more
