    Tried Luckin Coffee for the first time after hearing so much about it and I would say its pretty good. I tried their Sea Salt Caramel Latte. The Caramel Latte was pretty good, I would recommend to reduce the amount of caramel syrup though because the original amount makes it pretty sweet. I will say the ordering system requires you to only use the kiosk or order through the app. This can be pretty annoying for those who are not tech savvy and love to use cash. It wasnt an issue for me, but as I waited for my order, I witnessed someone leave because they only had cash on them

    Same great drinks at great prices. This location is small and is a pick up staion only. No seats at all , so be aware of that if you planned on staying a bit. Friendly staff and order was ready quickly despite it being easy morning ( rush time) .

    Luckin Coffee, which is something like a Chinese version of Starbucks with over 24,000 locations worldwide, opened its first locations in the United States starting in Summer 2005, starting in Greenwich Village. I'm not sure when this location in Chinatown opened up, but we visited when we saw the storefront while walking. The staff were very helpful in explaining the store's concept, and in providing after-order customer service. A few things to note: - The store does not have a cash register. Everything must be ordered and paid for online via the app. The store does not offer free Wi-Fi, but many mobile plans have unlimited data these days. - Scan your order's QR code at the counter when picking up the order. - Bags cost 5¢ due to New York City law, and must be separately ordered -- look for the "packaging" option during checkout in the app. - The store has two counter-height seats. We ordered a Kyoto Matcha Latte for our first visit, for $2.17 with tax. While earlier Yelp reviews commented on the drink's lack of flavor, we found our version to be pretty good. There are no customer accessible restrooms.

    Drink (4/5): Solid coffee but nothing super special. Got the velvet coffee and my partner got the coconut one. Overall good coffees. Service (4/5): Be aware that you can only order through the app or website. The coffee came out quite fast after we got from the website. Ambiance (4/5): Small coffee shop that looks modern. Only one table with two seats so you basically have to pick up and go.

    Don't go

    Tried to support this business but it is a whole ordeal to get a drink. To have to download an app first before you can do anything. Can't use the screen inside and can't give an order to the employees. nexttttr

    Checked out the new location of Luckin in Chinatown. This location is quite small. There are about 3 seats. It is quick and mainly order on the app and grab and go. First order of a drink is $1.99. There are usually deals in the app. I ordered my usual which is the Kyoto Matcha with oat milk. Matcha is good and not overly powering. Perfect blend of milk and matcha. Anything in regards to milk and ice can be customized on the app. There is also a small variety of pastries. Good location and prices.

    Caramel Popcorn Latte

    I tried Luckin Coffee multiple times while visiting NYC because they were running a $1.99 deal and it was honestly worth it every time. My mom said this place was the starbucks of China so I had to try it! The Caramel Popcorn Latte was creamy and sweet with a subtle popcorn flavor that wasn't overpowering. Fun and easy to drink. The Caramel Brûlée Latte was my favorite-rich, cozy, and dessert-like with great caramel flavor. Affordable, tasty, and perfect for grabbing coffee on the go. I'd definitely go back!

    Pros: - quick service, don't even need to speak to the staff if you mobile order (maybe unless it's your first time) - drink was finished at the time stated on the app - they usually have 30%-60% off coupons whenever I check the app Cons: - the flavoring in the drinks are alright, not that strong but, since I'm usually using a coupon and paying $2-$3 for a drink, I can't really complain too much Comments: - been to Luckin (different ones) a couple of times - they have a small selection of pastries, never tried before though - the space is really tight, there's no seating, there's a standing table by the window closer to the wall but, it probably only fits like 2 people

    Luckin Coffee has popped up at many places in NYC and this is one of many. The taste and service is consistent throughout. The drinks may seem a bit on the higher end but you almost never pay that full price for the drinks as there is almost always coupons on the app (Almost because I actually had one day I went to buy and there wasn't). The place is almost like a mini Starbucks but much less space for you to hang around.

    Toffee Hazelnut Latte
    Marina C.

    We were walking by and people in my group heard about this brand opening up at several locations, I downloaded the app and ordered 3 drinks. I got the new Toffee Latte, B had the Kyoto Matcha and L had the Iced caramel Latte. My Toffee latte...tasted like...a $2-3 coffee. Could I tell if there was any Toffee flavor in it? No. Was it great coffee? No. I'm glad I didn't pay full price but it wasn't worth the discounted price ...it was more than the advertised $1.99. L's caramel latte ...did not taste like caramel. The Kyoto Matcha...wasn't a strong flavor. I went to Hien afterwards and got a classic Vietnamese coffee and it was so strong in comparison...but it was $8...for a small cup. Would I come back? No... the drinks didn't take very long to make. I noticed a lot of young people getting drinks here. It really was pretty avg coffee... I'll stick to my favorite spot to get coffee...it's not Starbucks..

    Coconut milk latte

    I've been wanting to try out Luckin Coffee and was pleasantly surprised when I discovered this new location that just opened up right on Grand street in the middle of Chinatown. They only take orders via their app and they have a promo where your first order on the app is only $2. Got their most popular Coconut milk latte and while it was just as intense as the one from Cotti Coffee, I didn't enjoy the flavor of Luckin's as much. Don't think I can see myself coming back here often since the prices of the drinks aren't cheap.

    Dropped in on a frigid January Sunday afternoon to get a caffeine boost. The store is tiny, not much standing room especially when everyone is in their heavy duty winter coats. Theres maybe 2 seats. This is definitely one of the smaller Luckin locations that's been popping up around town. Lots of promotions for anywhere between 40-60% off and $1.99 app sign-up and friend referral deals. Link your student email address to the app and it gives you a bunch of 50% off coupons. Ordered a cappuccino with coconut milk and 3 shots of espresso. It's quite amusing watching the team work; they barely talk. It's like a machine- they see an order, press buttons, add the toppings and fixins and then the person in the front scans the associated ticket for the order and places it on the counter. I imagine it's heavenly for those who have social anxiety and don't want any human interactions. Thought my cappuccino was weak despite adding an extra shot of espresso from the usual 2 that comes with the regular size. Will I come back? Possible, if there's a discount coupon and I'm in the area, but it's overall mid coffee. Also noticed that despite this location opening in Chinatown, and the company being FROM China, there's no Chinese menu, no Chinese language setting in the app. It feels mad weird that they'd do that- open a store in Chinatown and not have any Chinese language accessibility.

    I've had Ten Thousand Coffee on my to-go list for the LONGEST. I finally went for the first time…read moreand there were so many drinks I wanted to try so I ended up buying 3. 1. The Jeju Green Tangerine Matcha honestly just tastes like a tangerine selter drink but in the best way, because I don't typically enjoy seltzer or carbonated beverages. I really enjoy the flavor and the carbonation isn't too strong, probably because I brought it home to drink. I don't really taste the matcha but I would definitely still order this again. 2. Matcha Einspanner. This is my first time having an Einspanner so I have no idea what I was expecting but this is DELICIOUS. It's so silky and smooth and the TASTE is just right up my alley. The matcha is light but you can still taste it. Absolutely, would drink this all the time if I could. 3. Purple Sweet Potato Latte. This. This. Omg, why haven't I tried this sooner?! The first sip and initial taste, I almost tasted nothing, just milk. And then all of a sudden, there's an explosion of flavor in your mouth. As a sweet potato lover, I was in heaven. I have absolutely no words for this drink, just try it. 100/10 recommend. This is probably my favorite one out of the 3 that I bought. I went around ... 2:45PM on a Friday and most of the seats were taken, if I remember correctly. There were a decent amount of seats and the space was decent. I liked the minimal aesthetic they had for the design of the interior. Not to forget, the staff at the register was absolutely wonderful, she answered all my questions, she's so sweet. I think I'm disappointed that I haven't tried this place sooner. Y'all get out of your comfort zone and try the Purple Sweet Potato Latte !! Or if not, just try this place out. I will definitely be recommending the Purple Sweet Potato Latte to all my family and friends.

    The shop was nice and clean and it wasn't too busy when we stopped by…read more I ordered the tiramisu einspänner, which was exactly what it sounded like a generous dollop of tiramisu on top of an einspänner latte. While it was a fun and unique drink, I probably should have opted for something else. The topping was literally like actual tiramisu rather than just tiramisu flavoring, and it felt like there was more ice and tiramisu than latte. Personally, I would have preferred more of the tiramisu flavor without the full tiramisu texture mixed into the drink. That said, it was an interesting concept and I'm glad I tried it. I'd definitely be open to coming back and trying another latte on a future visit.

    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.
