Crema's Take
“Irving Farm's inconsistency is its biggest problem—you might get a beautifully balanced pour over and warm hospitality, or a disappointingly thin cappuccino and a dismissive barista, depending on which location and visit you catch. The multiple New York locations are convenient and the pastries are solid, but the reviews suggest the espresso program needs serious work, and seating is tight enough that you'll want to call ahead. Skip this if you're counting on reliable, excellent espresso; grab a pour over here if you're in the neighborhood and feeling lucky.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. Outdoor seating spot. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

See all on Google →Great coffee, friendly staff. Not a lot of seating so keep that in mind.
My visit was thoroughly disappointing. The barista was unkind and brusque, providing an unpleasant start. More importantly, the cappuccino was of very low quality—thin, poorly textured, and the coffee tasted bitter. Overall, a poor combination of bad service and a subpar drink.…
I usually go to the Upper West Side location, but this was my first time at the East Side — and it was just as great. The coffee was just as good, and the staff were friendly and the store is clean and nice. I usually go for a cortado, but since it was such a hot day, I decided…
Uh... Slick interior. But not worth the visit. The coffee sounds good but either the barrister or the roast did not make the cut. One roast on the grinder only and espresso in PAPER cups??? Really?
The best coffee in the world can be found here. We went for a special coffee bean that really tasted like strawberry milkshake. We loved it so much that we bought a bag home. The coffee fragrance is really like strawberry. Love it love it love it !! I highly recommend this…
