Crema's Take
“Since 1891, Caffe Roma has been serving generations of New Yorkers in an authentically preserved Italian cafe that feels frozen in time—all original fixtures, warm staff with genuine Italian charm, and a pastry case that delivers some of the city's best cannoli and biscotti. This is where you go for an amaretto cappuccino and a cozy night in Little Italy, not cutting-edge latte art, and locals clearly keep coming back for that timeless comfort rather than coffee innovation.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

See all on Google →Beautiful historic building very helpful staff, the man that helped us did have a thick Italian accent and talked fast but was very kind and helpful, everything we had was fantastic even though we came in late, highly recommend the little flavored cheese cakes and cannolis!
Stopped here to warm up and get a drink and snack later at night during a snowstorm. It was a nice ambience wirh a lot of original features (they have been in business since 1891!) Service was polite, the owner seemed to be working, too, and offered us refills of water. Rhw…
Must try! This was a great stop for a warm cozy cup of adult hot chocolate! Employee’s were super sweet and helpful with ordering. Would definitely recommend and will definitely come back when in the area.
What a lovely place that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into an old Italian cafe. Makes for a perfect stop on a cold night exploring Little 🇮🇹 Italy. Not a chain, unique and independent. Loved it.
This was the best cannoli I have ever had! Had some cookies and biscotti as well that were delicious and an amazing amaretto cappuccino that went perfectly with it all. The owner was very friendly and they were very busy!
