Tiny hole in the wall neighborhood coffee spot with good ham & cheese croissant and coffee. Came here couple times and each time the staff is friendly and coffee is on point. Close proximity to midtown shopping area, and TJmaxx and trader Joe is just across the street. read more

This place was originally called Tenz coffee. But from what I was told they needed a bigger space so they moved next door ( that is if I got it right). It is a smallish coffee shop but the employees who work here are very nice. They have great music here too. I believe they use La Colombe coffee so my iced latte I had was very good. Stop in if you find your self in the area looking for a caffeine fix. read more

I did not think much of this coffee shop. It had hardly anything worth buying, the coffee was just decent, and there were minimal seating arrangements. A few danishes and baked pastries hardly fitted the bill. I will not be back. read more

Super skilled barista here! They use La Colombe beans, which aren't the most unique, but still manage to make both the latte and cold brew incredibly flavorful. That takes real talent. Also, come for the beautiful latte art! It's a work of art in every cup! read more

This has been my go-to spot for years. The coffee quality is great, the matcha quality is great, and the baked goods are something to crave waking up early for. The selection of additional flavors and milks makes variety easy. The service here is also efficient and plays a lovely blend of quick work and personable attitudes. I would highly recommend this place and have to people asking for a good coffee spot read more

Came to grab a coffee while waiting for our dog at AMC hospital. Pretty close to hospital. Totally worth the short walk. Amazing coffee. Super fast service, and reasonable prices. I had an oat milk matcha with a little bit of honey and partner had an oat milk latte. A+ for both. Highly recommend for any occasion, but especially if you are in a rush. Made to perfection! read more

My go-to coffee spot in Midtown East. Their cold brew is absolutely delicious -- rich, strong flavor it's great straight black or it's delicious with a single pump of your favorite flavored syrup, half & half or any other milk of your choosing -- then, it becomes a delicious creamy treat! Their iced matchas are also perfectly flavored. There is a great assortment of rotating, fresh baked goods. I've picked up muffins, scones, croissants and other pastries. And depending on what's in stock there are sometimes savory options. The owner, Tenzin, is always kind and pleasant. Randy, one of the store's baristas, is so sweet and personable. Seeing either of them always makes our day. The place is clean and immaculate, with bright natural light looking in. My favorite coffee shop, hands down. Try their cold brew - you won't regret it. read more

Tenz is our go-to coffee bar for many years. The barista is extremely fast and efficient, very friendly and remembers your order. Above all their strong coffee has just the right balance, without being too acidic like Blue Bottle. There are quite a few other coffee shops in the vicinity. We tried them all but we always go back to Tenz. read more

Love this place! Their cold brew is absolutely amazing, my go to. They also make a great Americano. Really cozy place. The owner, Tenzin, is also awesome. Always greets you with a smile, and works so efficiently at serving customers. Overall, a must try! read more

friendly staff, great coffee AND matcha!! their new space is really cute too - much bigger and more seats, so i'll have to come back and stay a bit longer on my next visit. bf and i have tried a few different drinks from here but i feel like we keep coming back to the mocha latte or a matcha with maple. read more

My iced matcha lattes from here are always tasty! I highly recommend it. It's a small, quaint coffee shop with an unassuming exterior. The service is quick. Everything I've had from here is consistently delicious. It's my new favorite neighborhood coffee joint. read more

Coffee and matcha were good! We also had a muffin and scone- both were bland and dry. I would skin the pastries. But the drinks were good. It's a small little hole in the wall place so I wouldn't say it's good for business meetings just because we didn't have a ton of space but it did the trick. read more

Best matcha latte I've ever had! I'm always on a quest for a great matcha latte and I'm more often than not wildly disappointed. This place was absolute perfection. Deep, rich, green, robust matcha with a silky oat milk (unsweetened by request) was on point! Usually I find matcha lattes to be too milky, too sweet, and barely any matcha used. Tenz, you nailed it. I'll be back every day until I leave the city. 10 star! read more

So friendly and delicious coffee. Small so not for hanging out though there are a few seats. Well done!

I discovered Tenz shortly before I moved out of NYC, and now go there every day every time I'm back in the city. This place is hands down my favorite spot to get Iced Tea, Coffee, and Macha. The staff is super friendly and the drinks & pastries are delicious. Space is small, but after all this is NYC. I would highly recommend Tenz to anyone looking for a delicious, reasonably priced drink or pastry; check this place out! read more

Excellent blueberry crumb muffin. It was probably the best muffin I've ever had. I also got a latte which was very excellent as well

I got a chai tea latte and it was really good. The staff is really friendly here, which I as very appreciative of. You even can get a rewards card where you can gather up your points based on your purchase and then after a certain amount (I think $50), you get $5 off. Friendly service, small yet cute space inside, and seating outside - I would love to return to try more of the beverage options! read more

Double shot espresso after a Saturday night of drinking is clutch. Their single is a double (recommended) I don't even know how much it was but it hit all the spots. Pastries looked good but i overhead some customers asking for items that were sold out an hour before so must be good. read more

Tenz is the fucking man. No one works faster than Tenz, and if he fucks with you, he'll hook it up w pastries at the end of the day. Coffee is gasolino too read more

Great vibes, great music, extremely quick service! The guy behind the counter was very nice

Top notch food and service. I pulled in a little before they close at 5, and got an everything croissant (unbelievable idea and execution, incredible!), a doppio (which everyone but me apparently knows is a double espresso) and a vegan burrito (60-40 on that one only because of the vegan aspect). Server was friendly and quick, and I will definitely be back! read more

Best coffee shop in the neighborhood!! The owner is incredibly nice and serves the most amazing coffee no matter the order!

Cold brew had a fantastic flavor but was slightly watered down. Mocha was pretty good. Almond croissant was not very good- barely any flavor and was dry and hard, like it was old maybe? read more

Excellent coffee and exceptionally friendly staff! It's a neighborhood coffee shop we can all be proud of. Cold brew, brewed coffee, lattes...everything here is good. I finally tried to almond and plain croissants, which are top-notch. I would stop by even for the pastries alone! read more

Had a very positive experience at Tenz. I got a hot chocolate which was simple but perfect for a cold day. Also got an apple cinnamon pastry which was great once warmed up. My girlfriend got a chai drink which she really enjoyed. I'll probably be back! read more

I am not sure what they do to their coffee here, but it is darn delicious. Service is friendly and lighting fast. 10/10

Cute and cozy, Tenz Espresso Bar is exactly the coffee shop the neighborhood needs. Service is always friendly and coffee and cappuccinos are made to perfection. There is a little area if you want to grab your computer and enjoy a cup of coffee and watch the world go by. Heater is strong. I'm so glad I don't have to go to Starbucks or another chain anymore. I've found the coffee spot for me. read more

Coffee was overheated which gave it a burnt flavor. Service was very nice and fast. Probably will not come back.

The best coffee and the cleanest coffee place in the neighborhood and anywhere in the city. The proud owner greets and serves the neighborhood and then he cleans after us. Tenz deserves the extra star and all our support. read more

Got a wonderful soy cappuccino here. The milk texture and latte art were great! Both the baristas were super friendly and nice. I also took a coffee to go, it wasn't as strong of a cup of coffee as I like, I'd stick to the espresso drinks here. Would come back! read more

Really great coffee with a super friendly staff! I live nearby and have quickly become a regular. They have a loyalty card with discount after spending a certain amount. Their lattes are really tasty and come with some latte art on top! Dark roast is also solid. They're also accommodating with special requests with your order. They have some good bakery items in a case too! Recommend the carrot cake read more

I'll be real--I've only ever had plain iced coffee here. But like, it's good. Really good. I've come back a few times just to have it again and again. Such a classic cup of iced coffee that it made me want to go on Yelp and tell other plain iced coffee lovers that it has this iced coffee lover's stamp of approval. Consistent. So drinkable. Not too weak but definitely not too strong. Classic. 5 stars. read more

Quickest service I've ever seen in a coffee bar. I ordered a latte, paid, and walked out within 1 minute. Great coffee too. The owner Tenzin is doing great things! read more

Found this little gem unexpectedly, and I am glad I did! My order was made quickly and deliciously. The barista is friendly and knowledgeable! The price is extremely reasonable, considering the well-defined taste of my beverage. I think I found my new regular spot! Will recommend it to anyone 10/10! read more

Best coffee in New York City. Place is very clean and I must say exce customer service.

The coffee was great (cold brew) and had fantastic flavor, but it tasted a little watered down. The almond croissant was not very good, it was chewy and stale and definitely not very fresh. Willing to give them another shot though, and if anything, I'll only order a coffee next time. read more
