    Hot chocolate
    Michele S.

    Best hot chocolate I have ever had!! Absolutely delicious. Very chocolatey, creamy and had choice of milkshake. I chose oat milk. Next time I'm in the city I'll definitely be back for another cup! The ambiance was chill, coffee shopish with wifi. Small, quaint. Female owned! Service was immediate and friendly. 5 hot chocolate! Served in a real mug since stayed to enjoy it.

    Deliciousssssss espresso. The man who was running the cafe was so sweet and helpful with touristy questions. He let us all use the restroom.

    Came by for a quick coffee and got an iced americano which was great for an afternoon pick-me-up! There's also a restroom which is amazing in East Village. This little cafe also has outlets and enough tables to stay and work for a bit.

    I've come to think of the Coppola Cafe as "my place". Right across the street, always cozy, often some beautiful Italian to be heard spoken by the family that runs the place, as well as some Italian popular music to which I've been delighted to be introduced. Out the front windows, I see tree-lined Jones Street and my apartment building, and people always strolling by. There's a regular group of folks that can often be found at the lone communal table, chatting happily away. The remodeling they did a while back eliminated some of the window-seating, and I'm still a bit sad about that, but it hasn't really hurt my ability to find a seat most of the time. I love coming here, either to get a bit of work done or just to chill and enjoy the atmosphere. This is such a special little gem, and my favorite coffee shop over all others in the Village.

    Needed a place to knock out some work before a meeting--this place is fantastic. The owners are very friendly and set the tone for an amazing vibe. The energy is great, with just the right amount of noise to make you feel the neighborhood. I had a lot to get done, and the WiFi was solid. Oh yeah, the vibe is great, but you probably don't want to take a call from here. And the coffee? TOP NOTCH. The pistachio croissant was tasty too. Thanks for the good time!

    had a pretty filling turkey and cheese croissant from this cafe! had no idea there was an egg inside, which was a fun surprise. at $9.50, it did seem to be a bit pricey and I'm not sure how fresh they are. the water was offered to me by the owners, which was nice of them! the cafe is pretty small, but they do have wifi and outdoor seating.

    Desserts look amazing!

    Cute vibes, coffee is decent. There are people working on laptops, reading, or casually chatting with friends. Came here with a friend and ordered: Barista: 5/5 Friendly staff Hazelnut Latte with oat milk. 3.5/5 Coffee was decent but it tasted nothing like hazelnut. Just a latte with oat milk. Iced hazelnut cold brew with oat milk. 5/5

    Came in for a place to get some work done - they've got a few tables outside, but Wi-Fi connection isn't strong out there. A few high tops inside - but did not find any outlets. Got an iced chai latte - that was pretty good. Maybe not the best long term working spot!

    I just received a moldy sandwich. There was also a pink splotch which I noticed too late. Hope I don't get sick :(

    Visited this spot last weekend because I like supporting small businesses, but was not pleased by the unprofessional, misbehaved, and blatantly rude staff. I checked Google reviews and was appalled to find the owner mocks patrons in person and online! Anyhow, here's the tea yal... It was one of those hot NYC summer days so of course I was tired when I walked in. I took a long time to decide what to order and when I finally did, the person behind the counter responded to my request rudely. I then asked if they had a bathroom and the man literally scoffs like he had never heard of someone who asked that question. He said the bathroom wasn't allowed for customers like me, which also came off as racist? I understand if you have a bathroom policy, but there's no need to be nasty when you tell the customer. I got my pastry and quickly left to get a real lunch at a nearby establishment (Down the Hatch)--highly recommend over this spot! I work remote and have visited cafes all over Manhattan, but never have I come across a cafe staff so rude. I don't recommend coming to this cafe due to the attitude of the owner and their employees. There's at least 5 other better cafes within a 10 minute walk :)

    The establishment pleased us with its cozy atmosphere, pleasant service and delicious pastries. Unfortunately, the experience was spoiled by the not very tasty coffee. Maybe it's worth working on the quality of the drink.

    I wholeheartedly love this little cafe. Sometimes, a cafe in NYC can have it all - a restroom for customers, strong wifi, and ample seating. The interior and exterior is dotted with little tables to accommodate a decent number of customers. The staff is so incredibly friendly and attentive. Usually in cafes, the most staff interaction begins and ends at the counter. Here, they warmly tell you to sit, they check if you need refills, and they're happy to let you stay as long as you need. Their iced espresso was nutty and strong. And their croissant was absolutely delicious - dusted with powdered sugar, flaky and crispy from top to bottom, and with a layer of custard on the inside. I inhaled mine immediately. My only issue was the number of flies inside the cafe. They buzzed around over the tables and were overall bothersome while I was trying to sit peacefully inside. Although with all things considered, maybe the staff was merely trying to accommodate these pesky little guests as well.

They've kept this place in good condition. Lots of seating and menus everywhere. It once was an Art Deco bank, you can kind of get the feel of that just from looking around. If you look at the mural behind the cash out point it gives you a little touch of history what once happened within these walls. I ordered the salmon toast. It was a little hard but I like the cream cheese was thinly spread not just thrown in like many places. The salmon was good and the mint tasted fresh. The capers were like slightly toasted and crispy, i've never had them like that before and I loved it. I think the toast was just missing a little drizzle of olive oil on top. To be honest, I think the capers were my favorite part. They were just this unique texture. I've never experienced before. I also got an iced lavender chai latte to go. It was so light and delightful, with the perfect blend of lavender. I really enjoyed this place and would totally come back again.

When you enter there is a bar you can sit at and two large high top tables next to it. As you walk further in there is a lounge with couches and various sizes tables. The whole space is surrounded by books! Heaven! We ordered a chai, matcha and a ginger cookie. Shout out to the woman taking my order for comping me my drink for my birthday! Everyone from the staff was friendly - I really enjoyed being there. The only thing I would say is someone should come by to check on the tables more often as I had to return other people's abandoned drinks. But you know what first world problems, am I right? Maybe they can have a sign or mention to customers to return their own cups before leaving. I sort of can't imagine why people don't... It is quite popular spot so you need to be very patient and strategic if you want to grab a table, as well as sprinkled with a little bit of luck. We unfortunately got there a little late. I went there at 3pm and hunted for a table and my friend got there by 330pm. By the time we ordered and started drinking our coffees - we were informed the lounge area will be closed at 4pm to prepare for the evening wine bar. Oh right this cafe turns into a wine bar in the evenings! How cool! At 4pm we thankfully grabbed one of the high tables - sharing it with another couple but it was large enough for the 4 of us. The lights dimmed and the atmosphere changed to more intimate. We unfortunately had to leave at 5pm, but I imagined picking up a James Baldwin book, ordering some white wine and enjoying both.... Mmm definitely next time. Maybe sometimes after work - sounds like a great wind down.

We tried the melon shaved ice $22 for the large which was a bit pricy but it was quite delicious. We were worried that the large might be too much for two people but honestly we were able to finish it without a problem. The melon pieces were sweet, the ice is milk based so it was creamy and flavorful on its own. We barely used the condensed milk that it came with (and we loved how they put it on the side for us instead). At the bottom of the shaved ice was cereal pieces and mochi which gave a nice different texture. We also tried their drinks specifically their blue lemonade and mango-ade which I thought was just ok. The highlight is definitely their shaved ice. Definitely go for the large as the small seemed much smaller and for double the price, you can get almost 2-3x more. Overall: it's a great place to grab a shaved ice and relax . The atmosphere is chill and you can stay without feeling rushed.

Koré Coffee is located at 26A Elizabeth Street, Chinatown, Manhattan, NYC.

Four stars, there are no tea options (hot or cold) available. No comment for the coffee or latte as I did not purchase any. I do not drink coffee in any shape or form. No restroom facilities are located on premise because this business does not meet the NYC bathroom requirements for mandatory facility of having 20 or more seats. Matcha Croffle with strawberries $11.00 (with NYC sales tax $11.98) It was served on a small plate. The Matcha green tea cream was refreshing delight as well as the strawberries. The waffle was good. I always have a predilection for waffles. It was filling as dessert for lunch or morning brunch. I enjoyed mine seated as I did not want the Matcha to spill into the bag or on my lap along with the strawberries dropped for loss. WiFi access is available. Business cards are available which also serve as a loyalty card where the tenth paid purchase enable "buy 10 coffees, get 1 free."
