Nearest coffee spot that is NOT Starbucks. Blueberry muffin was fantastic, love the cinnamon in it. My Latte and my mom's mocha's milk was frothed way too much, only half the coffee was liquid. Baristas seem stressed but cashier has super customer service with a smile. It's nice to come here before the walk on the Brooklyn Bridge because it's blocked off on this street, we can take pictures of the Manhattan bridge . read more

Go here. Ask for Jacob. End up smiling because he is the nicest guy you will ever meet and just makes you feel like Chelsea is a neighborhood. This guy sits outside and greets people - meet him once and he will remember yours - and your dog's - name. Oh, and the coffee is good, too! But I go for the way Jacob makes me feel. read more

Joe Coffee Company is a coffee shop serving up a solid drinks. I passed several locations thinking they'd be overrated but was glad we stopped in. This location has a couple of couches available along with 4 two top tables and chairs. All the tables were taken when we arrived, but we're glad because nobody took the couch next to us. My husband ordered an iced almond milk latte and added a hint of simple syrup while I ordered a small iced tea and sipped it down slowly. He also ordered protein balls made with peanut butter and oats. The drinks and snacks were very good and ambiance was chill and inviting. Someone complained about the prices on Yelp, but they're comparable to any other coffee shop and it's NY. I have no complaints here and would recommend it for a good cup of coffee. read more

Coffee is pretty mediocre and they close whenever they feel like. It's advertised to close at six but staff just close the coffee machines whenever they feel like it and get very defensive if you ask why. Blank St round the corner is much better as is Sullivan St Bakery. Hours are reliable and quality of coffee is higher. read more

Had an iced latte with regular milk. Solid coffee, tastes smooth and slightly acidic. The place had a couple of small tables to do any quick work or quick coffee chats. Good to also just take your coffee or drink to go! Good chain spot! read more

I got the fam some coffees here the other day and I was impressed! Someone I know loves this place and insisted I try it. The place is small and sort of nondescript, no fanfare, and not a lot of seating. Not a cozy place to curl up with a coffee, and read poetry and add to your IG stories. This is a place to get really great coffee. I got a cold brew with a splash of milk and it was absolutely fantastic. Nice roast flavor with a hint of mocha/chocolate. So different than any other coffee in the area. My wife was also raving about her latte, too. Defs check this place out. read more

This Joe Coffee is really unassuming at night. I can't say how it is during the day for people to find. It is a small store. Walk in a few steps to the counter, at around 7pm on a Saturday, all there is food wise is a cut up loaf slices of a fruit bread. You have to walk a bit further in to read the menu. The menu is up, small in characters and a bit far from the front of the counter. Other than that it is well stocked with bags of take home coffee beans, one small bag of instant coffee, accessories like filters, bottles and cups. There's a huge La Marzocco cappuccino machine so that's a plus. I order a 20oz Iced Matcha Latte for $5.75 - I should have requested less ice upon ordering. The matcha iced latte had 50% ice, way too much. I was not thinking upon ordering. Basically I got 10 ounces of ice. (A tip for ordering). I could taste the matcha and it flaked on top, nice. I enjoyed the ratio of matcha and milk even though it was only a few sips due to the -mucho- ice. I thought the $3.00 (hot) house drip coffee was strong. No milk, no sugar. Joe Coffee does not leave milk out in containers, I guess you have to ask the barista(s). They do have compostable straws, honey, napkins, utensils and sugar on two tables. The WiFi is good. I saw three folks on their laptops. The "Staff" labelled door needs a key by request to use. There's only a handful of tables and it is not Starbucks atmosphere. It is not over crowded. It is a bit bright and not as cozy as I find in most coffee shops but the staff is chill. read more

I love Joe (local coffee chain)! I was walking to the train from Patti Smitt's photography show at Robert Miller Gallery last night when I noticed a crushed Joe cup on the ground. Yes! That meant there had to be one nearby. I pulled out my handy dandy app. And I was about half way crossing the street and had to turn around. With only 7 minutes left until close, I rushed into the shop. There was no wait. I was still on my Patti Smith high! (I got to meet her) I ordered a hot chocolate to go. The clerk was blasting Bjork! I complimented his musical choice. He told me he had created a Women Folk Singers Mix and we were listening to his Women Rock Mix! I wish he would have made me some cd's. I love female vocalist and always had a strong selection in my old school mix tapes. We chatted about NY moments and volunteering. As I was leaving I noticed the lids were so geometrical on the inside, reminiscent of diamonds. I asked the clerk if they use them at all the shops. He said yes and that the lids are designed to give the customer the experience of "drinking from a porcelain cup" instead of a hole! How fascinating! I thought it was wonderful that a coffee shop would put that much effort into the customer experience. I think I normally like seeing the coffee design that I never put the lid on. But last night I had the lid and I could tell the difference. The location is small and intimate. It has some small, leather seating against the wall and some tables and chairs. I enjoy some Art Deco detailing from the coffee bar to the mirror on the wall. A good spot to remember in Chelsea. Thanks for staying open guys! Also note: No whip, I repeat, no whip for hot chocolates and also not too sweet, just in case that's what you are looking for. Joe does always have a collection of treats so not to worry your pretty little head! read more

Great coffee, but limited seating and no wifi means that this is better for to-go than lingering. Almond croissant was subpar (their pastries are from Ovenly in Brooklyn which I've heard good things about, but whatever). I was expecting it to have almond paste inside like just about every almond croissant I've ever eaten, but there wasn't any - just a sprinkling of almonds and powdered sugar atop a regular croissant. Anyway, the coffee is good, but you're better off heading to Cafe Grumpy or the like for a good coffee-and-chill session. Edit 4/2017: They now carry Underwest donuts (as do the rest of the locations). I had a raspberry yogurt one on my last visit - so amazing. Potato pic attached. read more

The coffee is definitely on the pricey side but you will not be disappointed. I got an iced coffee with oat milk and no sugar and it was amazing. The coffee was not too light as most iced coffees are. It was very smooth and rich. I will say that the food is just okay, hence the 4 star review. read more

the coffee was pretty good, the baristas were very nice and quick. however I came here to study and relax and the music they were blasting was so loud and distracting. so many customers were asking about the music it was crazy. I left because of the music im not even kidding. read more

We were on our way to the High Line when we stopped by this place and grabbed a quick cup of coffee. My mom is notoriously picky about coffee and the baristas stood there patiently answering all her questions until she was satisfied--and she loved her coffee. I got an iced dirty chai, which was also amazing. read more

The BEST neighborhood coffee spot in all of Chelsea. It's my place for a split oat latte that is sheer perfection every single time.

It is a happy place. read more

Apparently ever since they opened in 2003, Joe started to become the flagship of New York espresso, if not one of. Unlike many of its competitors, Joe focused more on improving itself locally and has gained many followers (like me). I cannot believe the fact that today was only my first visit to this renown place and am more than happy to try out their freshly brewed cappuccino. It was smooth, well-balanced and most importantly, refreshing yet not overwhelming. Barista was also friendly and attentive. They also serve seasonal drinks like hot cider - come and get it before it is gone! Great stuff Joe! read more

Saturday was a beautiful day. One of those nice warm days when NYC comes alive and people are out and about walking their dogs and gathered outside of a local coffee shop catching up and activating their Vitamin D. This is when I love NYC the most. On days like this past Saturday, I can't see myself anywhere else in the world. Well except maybe on a sandy beach in the Caribbean. I stopped into this cute coffee shop on my way to the Chelsea Art Museum to get a quick bite and a cup of joe. With Adele playing overhead and with a gentle breeze caressing my body, a girl couldn't ask for anything more. Well maybe except for a tall and handsome gentleman to whisk her into a dream. I sat by the entrance and watched a cute little girl inch her way into the shop. When I said hi to her she responded with an excited wave. The little things in life are priceless. The iced coffee was fresh and perfect. I also had a breadstick made with figs and fennel. What a great midafternoon snack. The staff were friendly and chatty. Almost felt like Brooklyn. I will definitely be back to try to the chocolate breadstick and more coffee. They also have monthly coffee classes for the aficionados out there. I love you Joe. Always did and always will. You are there to greet me in the drowsy morning and to pick me up when the afternoon gets lazy. Nothing like a nice jolt of caffeine to wake up the senses! read more

Superb lattes. Just the right amount of foam, a good temperature and a sweet, bold taste to the espresso. This is a finely crafted beverage my friends. Cash only. A large latte is $4.25. read more

Very pleasant coffee shop, with a friendly staff to boot. The coffee was tasty but a bit tame; i got an Americano with an extra shot of espresso and it was still rather weak. Though, it wasn't half bad either. Unfortunately, they have an annoying cash only policy which for me is a pain in the ass 90% of the time, but it's still a great spot to stop by for a cup of coffee if you ask me. Three Yelp stars. read more

Great iced coffee. The Chelsea location has a ton of pastry options including doughnut plant doughnuts! Cash only though! read more

One of my simple joys in life. The mere aroma of this coffee house makes my heart sing, and the first sip awakens my soul with vigor and excitement to tackle my to-do list. But in all seriousness... this place has ruined coffee for me everywhere else in the city. I guess I'm a Joe's coffee snob and I'm 100% ok with that. Cheers! read more

Joe the Art Of Coffee gets 3 stars from me because while they do get a lot right there are some areas that could really use improvement. First let's review their technical details: - Locally roasted coffee beans: No. They get their beans from Ecco coffee roasters in California - Baristas with proper training on pulling espresso & steaming milk: Check - Quality Milk Brand: Marcus Dairy - Microfoam quality and Latte Art: Check. See the photo I uploaded for the Cappuccino I ordered. My two main issues with Joe The Art Of Coffee are as follows: 1. I'm not familiar with Ecco coffee roasters even though I'm from California and frequent many of the Third Wave Coffee shops in the San Francisco Bay Area. That doesn't mean that Ecco can't be good but it does make me wonder why they chose that vendor. Many of the other Third Wave Coffee shops I visited in NYC who don't roast their own beans go with the always safe bet of getting their beans from Intelligentsia in Chicago. 2. They offer multiple sizes for cappuccinos and lattes. This is standard practice at places like Starbucks but I expect a lot more from a place like Joe The Art Of Coffee. When I asked for a cap the barista asked me what size. This question seemed very strange to me as a cap is usually one size (double espresso + 3-4 ounces of microfoam steamed milk). When I inquired about the other sizes it was pretty clear that the line between a cap and latte meant nothing to them. This definitely seemed strange. read more

I love their coffee. This is my first visit to this location and it didn't disappoint. My latte was beautiful. It had silky smooth foam and delicious taste. The location is spacious and nicely decorated. They have 5 little tables, counter by the window and sitting area by the wall. The barista was friendly and did a great job. read more

The baristas don't know anything about coffee and the drip was burnt and bitter. Also, I asked for a small and was given a large and charged for it. Same with the cake, I specifically requested a slice from the center and was instead given the outer slice which was stale on that side. Also, here the water is served out of an pld, rusty faucet and tastes foul. And they have you use the old fashioned paper cups that are tiny and fall apart. I feel cheated of my money--this was expensive and nothing was good. If I want bad coffee and stale cake, then I can get it for a third of the price. I will be sticking with Joe's on 13th street, the baristas are so much better. As is the general experience. read more

Joe, I've been coming back here a lot now that the High Line has the 23rd entrance open. I'm gonna kick it up another star, the coffee has been solid but the double espresso was small so.. 4 stars from Billy Salts. Keep up the good work Joseph! read more

Very nice staff and the coffee is good. I stop by every morning on my way to work. Best spot in the area!

By far, Joe is my favorite coffee shop. I cannot pass this place without getting my espresso fix. All Joe locations are equally good, and the Chelsea shop is particularly pleasant in the morning with the sun shining bright through the window. All coffee drinks I've had are potent and rich, but smooth, including the cappuccino and plain coffee, both of which are my regular choices, and the hot chocolate on a cold winter's day is a treat. Skip the Starbucks, and renew your faith in coffee with an espresso at Joe. read more

Joe The Art of Coffee offers a strong, delicious cup of, well, joe, but falls short on a few key coffee shop metrics. This was not a good space to hunker down and work for an hour or two. Besides the lack of Wi-Fi, the seating is crowded and power outlets few. I also found the glassware interfered with confident computing. My coffee-to-stay was served in a huge wide-mouthed mug. I ended up leaving a sloppy wet trail from the counter to the milk and sugar selection and back to my seat because the coffee was sloshing everywhere. I was able to park the cup on a NY Post to absorb the leakage, but was constantly paranoid that the stranger two inches to my right might knock coffee onto my keyboard. Plus: The wider the mouth of the glass, the more quickly your coffee goes cold. I'd love to grab my joe to go next time. I don't think I'll be toting my laptop here again. read more

Very hit or miss with their iced coffee drinks. Half the time you get a rich, chocolatey drink with depth that's delicious. The other half you get handed a tall glass of iced milk. Go here if you're willing to roll the dice! read more

Came here on a whim when I had some extra time before catching a bus out of town and was pleasantly surprised. I'm not a super hipster coffee drinker and tend to take everything with milk and sugar, but the staff was super friendly and helpful in helping me decide what to get. Debated between the espresso machiato or the americano misto and ultimately ended up with the misto. Both were about $3.50 each so price seemed standard for a coffee house and if not even a bit lower. Misto came in a cute cup with a floral design on the cream and I was pretty stoked (my first flower design!!). Friend got an iced coffee where small has a double shot and the large has 2 double shots--BE WARNED OF CAFFEINE ADDICTION! The place is small and definitely could use some more seating, but it's quaint and has good vibes and good coffee. They have standard syrup and sugards and all your milk and creams laid out (including soy, which I thought was a nice touch!!) so you can adjust your coffee to your liking. All your standard needs are here along with some helpful people behind the counter and you can sit as long as you'd like with few disturbances aside from it being a fairly busy shop through the day. Everyone's gotta get their fix, yakno?? read more
