Crema's Take
“This tiny walk-in espresso bar under Rockefeller Center excels at seasonal creative drinks—their iced peppermint mocha and candy cane mocha are worth seeking out—and executes clean, high-quality coffee with genuinely fast service despite the cramped quarters. It's pure grab-and-go energy with no lingering space, but that efficiency and quality makes it a perfect pre-show or between-meetings caffeine stop in Midtown. Fair pricing for the specialty drinks and skill on display here, though don't expect to nurse your latte.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. Quick-grab spot. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

See all on Google →Delicious coffee, we had hot vanilla lattes on a super cold day and it was perfect. A little on the pricey end but worth it nonetheless. It’s a walk in shop and very small, but you can walk down the hall to a seating area to enjoy your drink. Nice spot in Rockefeller Center.
Small but fast service. Not a place to sit and talk with friends but great for on the go vibes. Simple menu and great service. I had their seasonal candy cane mocha and it’s my favourite.
Simple place. Good Chai latte. A seat would be nice but it's pretty cramped in there even without it. Great place for grab and go. Clean. Prices are fair. Great service. Very nice barista took care of us. If you're under the rock, stop in.
The coffee here is perfect! Nice staff, quick service, high quality drinks. Located under the Rockefeller building.
Wanted coffee before we sat through a taping of the Kelly Clarkson show so we went downstairs and found this great coffee shop. I got the iced peppermint mocha and it was topped with little pieces of peppermint. Hands down the mintiest most fresh peppermint mocha I've had this…
