La Colombe Coffee

New York City = La Colombe Coffee Roasters. If you are going to another “popular” coffee shop SB, then stay home. You need to be be going to authentic coffee shops where you can sit down with a real cup and saucer of coffee or tea with freshly made baked croissants or pain au chocalat. And the baristas are QUICK! The line moves like lightning…I don’t know how they do it. The staff is polite and accommodating—taking every request, addition, or change with ease. I have been to this specific location on Church St. and have never had a bad experience. This is my favorite coffee stop and wish they were everywhere. I have sat and enjoyed my lattes, and there is an endless stream of people, so they are doing something right, and I must not be the only one who considers La Colombe their favorite coffee, because in the hour I have been here, there have been at least 100 people come through here. Coffee? La Colombe! I’m going to post lots of pictures of coffee because, uh, it’s a coffee place and each one is a work of art, aesthetically and palatably.

staff and atmosphere are great. Althoughmy chocolate croissant was all hardy and i ordered it at 9am so not sure how old are their pastries but definitely not fresh

The look is so simple but so welcoming! The customer service was fabulous, even though the line was almost out the door on a snowy day. The coffee was really ok but their almond croissant is their hidden gem. The tables are usually for 2, not exactly for a big group. It’s also a 3 minute walk from the canal street metro, that’s great!

Highly recommend if you like proper coffee. The light-medium roasted beens were delicious. My faith in finding good coffee in the states has been restored

A warm coffee shop with a line that moves efficiently. I had a cappuccino. It was made with well balanced coffee beans and the correct ratio of foam/hot milk. The design was also a nice touch. Some seating is available and staff are quick to notice empty tables and promptly clean for the next customer.

Came here in Jan 1st as I was in the area and needed a caffeine boost, thank goodness it was open but they did not have any pastries for the day. I was close to not ordering a cortado as I really wanted to have a nice small bite along with it. It was quiet in there with a few people as it was still New Year’s morning.

What a great coffee shop! While I've had their espressos many times in the past, I decided to try a limited "OJ" in draft form. It was delicious!

Great coffee shop in Chinatown on the border with tribeca. The staff is super friendly.

Great coffee and splendid scones. BUT: I noticed I was charged for two scones instead of one. They played surprised and returned the money. Everything polite... As I was having my coffee, the same lady overbilled in the same way two more customers, who noticed and received an apology. Petty theft from the cusoners seems to be a systemic issue here — I would have rated it one star, but such option is not available.

AMAZING coffee, a charming atmosphere and wow the olive oil cake is fantastic. If I lived in this neighborhood, I would visit everyday. Coffee!
