Ninth Street Espresso

Delicious coffee , light brown woody interior, outdoor seating . Huge windows looking into a park . Free wi-fi, though it's pretty weak. No outlets .

Espresso drinks only as far as ☕️ is concerned at this cozy coffeeshop that does accept credit cards and has WiFi .

Solid cappuccino open from 7 AM. Full of half asleep people exactly what you would hope for

One of the few places in the city where you can park with your laptop and work while enjoying your coffee .

If you love drip coffee , ask for a pour-over of the Guatemalan....and drink it black! The Brazilian and Costa Rican are best as espresso with milk .

The best espresso with oat milk (cappuccino ); in this preparation, oat milk is better than regular milk .

Tucked away near scaffolding but next to Tompkins Square Park is some great coffee . Always strong, aromatic and with a nice crema . Some space for lingering, standing or seating but plain inside.

Great ambiance. Good music and fine cafe could not be better

It's always busy in here with the seating often full. Great coffee options . Definitely a local favorite if you're in the area.

Fantastic coffee , free wifi , bigger space than the one on 10th, and overall friendly staff

Really the best little coffee shop in the neighborhood . Awesome spot, with a few cute little outdoor seats . But cash only .

Located in a relatively quiet neighborhood and a nice place to work/observe passerby -- of course the coffee here is undoubtedly great!

their lattes are unlike any other. as soon as i finish one, i immediately want another. i cant think of a better sunday spot, or any day for that matter.

The nicer of the 2 Ninth Street Espresso's. More seating here and welcoming of laptops, but still no outlets . Cold brew is solid.

excellent coffee , great WiFi ... but no outlets . Think it’s their way of avoiding all-day seat hoggers.

Some of the strongest coffee that I have ever had. If only they had food, this would be the perfect spot to start a day.

Great for working, but no outlets and the A/C simulates New York in January. Still - good coffee and a nice, relaxed vibe .

This location of Ninth Street has free wi-fi and ample space to unpack your laptop and hunker down for a bit. A great rainy day spot to warm up with a coffee and get some work done.

The only decent coffee & the only good workspace in the area, along with free wifi and basic baked goods are provided to a mostly local Alphabet City crowd.

Gets packed during prime hours. Go when it's quiet to relax or do some work with a great cup of coffee .

Good for a quick and tasty coffee , but they closed up all the power outlets , making this place a "if I'm near by" instead of a destination for me.

Awesome space to work with a cup of Joe.

The only good coffee & the only good workspace in the area, along with free wifi , quality espresso & a basic baked goods are provided to a mostly local Alphabet City crowd. Read more

Lattes are excellent. Great place to hangout with your laptop or book . Be warned there are no power plugs .

great coffee and espresso (and tea—just ask). ACCEPTS CARDS! WiFi password: 700east9

WiFi Password: 700east9. Cash only .

cash only , but easy flat price structure . three different sizes, all same price.

For 7 years this place was my go-to coffee spot . They make a fantastic drip.

great place to do work although they don't have any outlets . the baristas are so awesome and will let you work all day. :)

Best coffee in the East Village and good place to work at. Wifi works well but there are no plugs .

THE BEST COFFEE ! They have spoiled me. Now I have to go there every time I go to NYC without exception!

There are no plugs . So you can work as long as your battery is alive.

Get to know the baristas. If you are in a particular mood, they can create custom drinks for you, but nothing like Starbuck's. This is real technical coffee brew.

Try their cappuccino , or just a classic (but excellent) espresso .

Superb coffee as you'd expect from a place that's been here doing it for 10 years. Love the minimal/rustic feel too.

They specially design their coffee beans and send the orders to brazil to be harvested. The Alphabet City blend is fantastic!

We love the lattes here. A true neighborhood gem .

WARNING: Celebrities, notably Jason Schwartzman , have been known to receive preferential treatment here. If your barista is dawdling with your latte to favor his, tell her to "rush more."

A bit off the beaten path, but definitely worth the trek. Our vote for the best in the city . Cash only !

Excellent espresso in the East Village .

I come here almost every day now. Not only is the coffee amazing - the place itself is great too. The barristers are really friendly and cool...read more on my blog Read more

The OG spot for delicious espresso drinks

Bring your own power generator if you want to get work done. They covered their outlets on the floor so you can't plug in.

Great for working during the week. More busy on the weekend, obviously.

the espresso with milk is one of the best I've had

Love the Ave. C location for working/reading on a weekend. Some of the best coffee in the city .

4% fee for card. Currently no wifi . Still my favorite coffee in the village .

My favorite coffee shop to work. Great coffee minimal distractions.

Great coffee and place to get work done in the area.

You can ask Mark to make you a caffe ole, with skim milk and it costs leas than a latte and tastes just as nice.
