Crema's Take
“This espresso-focused spot near NYU has mastered the art of being all things to coffee lovers: you can grab a straightforward flat white in a rush, settle in with your laptop for hours thanks to dependable wifi, or linger over a genuinely good hot chocolate and grilled cheese. The vibe is cozy and welcoming with a solid selection of baking goods (including gluten-free options), though fair warning—service can lag during busy times and the wifi isn't always reliable, so don't count on it for anything critical. It's the kind of place that gets crowded precisely because it does the basics right and actually feels like a neighborhood gathering spot rather than a corporate chain.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Wifi.

Update: 9/5/23 - the wifi still often does work here. Good vibe, but can get crowded because it's near NYU. In summary, Think Coffee on Mercer Street in NY is a great cafe with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Their coffee is delicious and their food options are appealing. The…
