This spot is a real gem for the NYU community. The owner really really cares about cafe culture, high quality drinks/ingredients, and I see him working behind the bar all the time or at events my team has hired them for. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The cafe itself has low lighting and plenty of seating - perfect for relaxing or studying![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu is comprised of Asian-inspired flavors (padan, black sesame, yuzu etc.) without being gimmicky or hopping on trends like many other cafes do. There's plenty of non-dairy milk options available. I can't have carbonated drinks, so I haven't had the "fizz" drinks, but all of the "nitro" drinks are amazing! I love their nitro jasmine green tea. Their specialty drinks are also a major hit for me. My standout is the sea salt caramel latte - it's an absolute flavor punch!!! Their strawberry matcha has a really well balanced flavor profile - no need to adjust sweetness here! They also encourage customers to play around with flavor combinations, so if you're itching to try a yuzu espresso that's not on the menu - just ask! read more

A relief to find! [[HIGHLIGHT]]This swanky little cafe is a solid spot for a tasty pick-me-up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Cashier and barista were pretty friendly. The menu features lots of exciting, unique options like nitro teas and fizzy lemonade. The seasonal Viet Cold Brew with Vanilla Pandan reminded me of home! It's strong, creamy, sweet and nutty - probably the best pandan coffee I've had. read more

I love all their nitro tea options and have been meaning to come back! Really extensive menu that is sure to have something for everyone. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are several seats inside and it's pretty cozy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's nice to sit down and catch up with a friend, but probably a little too tight to sit down to do work.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Came in on a Sunday morning around 9:30am and there was plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got a yuzu mint fizz and then saw that they also have Matcha black sesame lattes, which I will definitely try next time. The yuzu mint fizz came in small medium or large, and I got the large and it was delicious! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Friday afternoon, very quiet, it was nice to just hangout.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's also a loyalty card. We got a small peach earl grey fizz - it has a nice level of carbonation and refreshing. It did take a couple of sips to get used to the tea aftertaste but it grew on me. The large black sesame matcha latte was good too, and the matcha lightens up the black sesame flavor. You have to stir it well and we ended up adding a little simple syrup to add some sweetness. read more

Ordered: Iced Yuzu Mint Lemonade Fizz (~$6) Aya's take: If you're looking for a unique coffee & tea experience, Whistle & Fizz is just that place! I ordered the Iced Yuzu Mint Lemonade Fizz off their "Fizz" category of their menu. It's a refreshing blend of cold pressed lemons and sparkling mint lemonade topped with yuzu. It was a beautiful, warm day in NYC so this was the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and refreshing. It's a great drink to sip on while enjoying a stroll around the park. I would absolutely come back and try something off the "Whistle" category or their classic/specialty drinks. Highly recommend! read more

Visiting NYU and came across this gem! First time I'm trying nitro tea, so I was excited. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The space is cozy, with some seating, but not very much.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Staff was so friendly, deceiving their nitro tea (strongly brewed tea, infused with tiny nitrogen bubbles to make the taste smoother). I decided on the nitro black milk tea (nitro black tea with a little condensed milk mixed in). I did not adjust sweetness nor ice (I'm usually a light ice and half sweet girl at tea shops), and the balance was everything was perfect! Not too sweet with their original recipe! Wish I were a local, because I would be here often! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The service here is great and the shop itself is super cute; a great place to study or do work with a lot of outlets.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have tons of unique drinks from fizzy flavored lemonades to nitro teas! We got the fizzy strawberry yuzu lemonade and the nitro green tea. The tea had such a unique texture that I've never had paired with the tea flavor before and the sweetness level was perfect. The lemonade was also good but not my favorite. I definitely recommend coming here for a refreshing drink, especially if you're looking for something different and not too creamy/milky. read more

I like it, not your typical drinks..i will definitely come back for more... [[HIGHLIGHT]]also the place is good[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

I really like this spot and I will say the customer service that I've been having recently has been great. I've been back a good handful of times and I really like their pandan flavored drinks, specifically the coconut pandan latte. Today I came by for a banana pandan drink and it was interesting, but it works. Great service from the guy working at the register. I appreciate it :) read more

This is my favorite coffee shop in NYC (seriously)! I come here a few times a month when I'm in the area to get the Cold Brew Lemonade Fizz (kind of like a sparkling Arnold Palmer with cold brew instead of lemonade). They have a rotating seasonal menu as well that usually has some pretty interesting options, recent favorite was a lemonade with a hefty dose of ginger shots. Baristas here are always kind and fast, and will ask you how your day is going even in the morning rush. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's enough seating inside and it's quiet enough to bring your laptop and get some work done if you wanted to.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Usually quite a few NYU students camped out here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The only place in town where you can get a "Laura Palmer" drink minus the alcohol. It's 50/50 lemonade and nitro cold brew coffee but the carbonation makes it extra special. Named after " Laura Palmer " from Twin Peaks. . Their other coffee drinks are unique. Highly recommend this place . A++ read more

I loved my nitro milk tea with boba from Whistle & Fizz. I also had a sip of my companion's drink and it was equally distinctive and delicious. I love places that treat tea and coffee with similar reverence. Whistle & Fizz is one of them. read more

Whistle & Fizz - Front entrance, Whistle & Fizz - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

A relatively small cafe but there's an ample amount of seating (metal stools and wooden benches) and lots of wall outlets inside (you might have to try spotting them while looking around for a seat though). People are working on their laptops throughout the day and staff won't shoo you out. This cafe has been around for several years, last time I've stopped by was 4 years ago before the pandemic. Right around the corner from one of the NYU buildings. Conveniently located by the R/W lines at 8th St NYU and 6 train at Astor Place. Staff is patient, friendly and chill; willing to help and explain to customers about their pastries and/or drinks on the menu. You can ask the staff to help you refill water in your reusable water bottle. They offer free wifi for customers too. Didn't get a pastry as I'd just eaten lunch, maybe next time if/when I'm in the neighborhood again. I ordered a medium size iced peach earl grey fizz for $5.44. Glad that inflation times haven't brought up the price by too much. Accepts credit/debit card and/or cash as forms of payment. If you decide to check in on the Yelp app, you'll get a free topping (lychee jelly or tapioca pearls ~ usually an extra 75¢ regularly) in the drink of your choice. Love that I can clearly taste both the peach and earl grey flavors in the fizzy drink. Very refreshing indeed!!! Can ask for less ice (but not sure if you can ask for completely no ice?) There's no public bathroom for customers, so you might've to find one on the next block or something..... Free Wifi: Username: Whistle & Fizz Pswd: whistleandfizz (all lowercase letters) So, drop by for the cozy vibes and leave with a satisfying drink (and/or a pastry) in your hand. read more

Whistle & Fizz - Black Sesame Matcha latte with pistachio milk - Coffee & Tea Near Me - New York, New York

I was on a hunt for a Black Sesame Latte (my usual place in Brooklyn has a non-coffee version which I get) after my doctor appointment and this did not disappoint. The inside is good for studying and catching up with the friends around the area! Baristas were super nice when I asked them about the sweetness of the Black Sesame Latte and if it was better hot/iced. I ended up getting it hot since it was recommended if I wanted it to taste more flavorful. Absolutely loved it! If you're interested in the perfect blend of black sesame and coffee then this is for you :) This is coming from a non-coffee drinker too!! read more

Whistle & Fizz was such a welcome spot after a long day from walking in the heat. This place offers various hot and cold beverages, seasonal features, pastries, and even various gift items for sale (such as boba children's books). I tried: +the Lemon-Creasmicle Fizz - prepared with sparkling water and lemonade that's flavorerd with vanilla; wasn't really a fan of the 'cream' in this one, but I loved the fizzinness of it +a Strawberry Yuzu Lemonade Fizz - fizzy sparkling water drink of strawberry puree, yuzu, and lemon; this was super refreshing and tasty; loved the fizziness of it and the combination of the strawberries, yuzu, and the lemon Staff was quiet and efficient, and there were a handful of seating inside; most seem to get their orders to go. You can also order online for a pickup. Definitely a good spot to quench your thirst and regain some energy before continuing on your journey in the city! +good fizzy drinks +seasonal items available +handful of seating inside +online ordering offered read more

Some of the best drinks I've ever had! I got one of their seasonal drinks which was a pandan vanilla cold brew and it was so good. I could stop drinking it and it kept me caffeinated.

The black sesame latte is *chef's kiss*. Spendy but worth it - perfectly hot (sometimes lattes are too hot -- this is just right), flavorful but not sweet, and they use the good milk (Battenkill, it really makes a difference when you're having a milky drink like a latte). The server was also super sweet and indulged my questions in such a gentle, kind way. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I didn't stay but it seemed like a busy, cozy little nook of a place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

One of my favorite cafes in the city! Personally, I'm a huge fan of their Nutella latte which says a lot because I'm usually pretty picky about my lattes. Always a great drink with a nice selection of pastries as well! Plus, the baristas are always really nice when I go, which makes the trip worth it for me. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's a decent amount of seating but it's usually full with college students hanging out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nice atmosphere and drinks![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Spacious cafe with a variety of drinks to choose from, wifi and outlets are available as well. Service is quick and the barista is helpful.

Great service at Whistle & Fizz! The barista was super friendly, offered us samples of the drinks, and was very receptive to answering all of our questions!

A very cool concept and delicious treat to get you through the day! read more

My partner and I were walking around the neighborhood in search of a new coffee shop to try, and found Whistle and Fizz. I was super intrigued by their menu and number of strong reviews, so we decided to give it a go. Seating-wise, there are only a few tables, but it wasn't crowded when we went, so we were able to grab one. My partner chose to DIY their drink and got a half cold brew, half nitro tea. I went with the cold brew lemonade, which seems to be one of their most popular drinks. Both were delicious! The cold brew lemonade was sweeter than anticipated, but the flavors balanced really well. Overall, I'll definitely plan to return here to try some of their other beverages and to get the cold brew lemonade again - it was so unique! read more

Poped by for a Yelp Event, now I occasionally visit for their delicious carbonated bubble fruit drinks! My favorite is the green apple fizz and the grapefruit fizz. The staff were kind and welcoming. The drinks always come out quickly and you are able to watch them make it at the bar table for you. The bubbles something's are a little harder than I'd like, but the carbonated fizzy drink is always perfect and to my liking. They have a good amount of seating as well with wall outlets for those who want a study spot. They have coffees and teas here as well but I come for the bubble tea. They also have little snacks if you're interested. Tl;dr - fizz drink are delicious. Space and seating for studying available read more

Am in love with the black sesame latte and get one here regularly. The baristas are super nice and fantastic and there aren't usually big lines. Id try other things (the menu is extensive) but this particular latte is too good. The chocolate croissant and cinnamon rolls are delicious. Also I left my winter glove in there the other day and they kept it for me! read more

Stopped in on a whim, after a meal, for a good cup of coffee. To my surprise they have bubbles and a few different variations with Jasmine tea, which is my favorite! The Nistro Jasmine milk tea was really good when I sampled, but did change a bit once the ice was added, and I did request "less ice". My husband went with the tried an true vanilla latte. This is a drink we often choose first when trying a new coffee shop. It was good, not great, but this is not a complaint. In all fairness, we are coffee snobs and tend to prefer a bolder tasting expresso- which this did not have. Otherwise, our drinks and service were good. Seating looks like it could be an issue to snag. FYI- any drink under the "Whistle" list is available for sampling. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I've been going here for years, it's been a reliable spot to sit and study and get work done (although can get a bit loud and cramped but I don't mind).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The workers are nice, they have a student discount, and lots of tea options. However, I think they've changed the matcha or recipe they use because I find it doesn't stand up to milk anymore recently especially in an iced matcha or strawberry matcha latte. It tastes too milky even with extra matcha added. However, I still keep coming back for a hot matcha with vanilla pandan syrup or a nitro tea or cold brew lemonade! I just wish they'd go back to the old matcha recipe. read more
