MarcJune 13, 2015Good for free wifi and to work a bit. But bad coffee. If you like good coffee don't go.
I feel like I am back in Korea again... A true cafe :) come here!
Have never seen so many people achieve so little. Definitly no express in this expresso...
Kathleen RohMarch 7, 2012Horrible service. I expected the same level of service that I got when I had the caffe Bene experience in Korea. I don't see this lasting long if the level of service doesnt improve.
Mariana PerezMarch 4, 2017Nothing. I LOVE caffé Bene company .. this is the first time I go to this location tho (49th street btwn 8av and Broadway) and the service is so bad. Really bad service
Jhoana OJanuary 28, 2012Dark Aztec hot chocolate is good. Still working out the kinks in customer service but nice space.
Kris BrooksFebruary 26, 2014Nice environment, decent items, a little pricey, but the staff- terrible customer service! I just saw the cashiers be extremely rude to a foreign man, makes me want to call management!
Rebecca MirDecember 1, 2012Iced tea lemonade should be called iced tea lemon juice. When I asked for simple syrup I was pointed toward the powder sugar. No.
Carolina RevillaDecember 1, 2014Mediocre place to have dessert. I ordered a latte and it was just cold milk. The staff was super rude. The gelato waffle was decent.
Stephanie SansoneJuly 12, 2013The baristas were extremely rude and would not accept the FourSquare deal, arbitrarily making up that the special starts at 2pm when I tried ordering at 1:30pm. Won't be giving them business.
Deb BurkeMarch 16, 2017They messed up all 4 coffee orders and were out of waffles (9am on a Wed). On the plus side, it wasn't crowded!
Rachel SApril 17, 2012There are like 17 baristas, each more unhelpful than the last. Baked goods are underwhelming.
Be sure to count your change. I've been short changed here twice.
- Tamara YJuly 16, 2016The WORST coffee place ever. No restrooms, the lady who took our order was super annoying and making faces. They imitate Starbucks on a lower level. I will never come back.
Service not the best but has free wifi and lots of room to work.
Billy KimOctober 13, 2012Typical Korean business... Take money, don't care about customers, and will be closed within 2 years.
Julie CarterJuly 9, 2013So rude! Was excited to use my check-in special and the employees just stared at me. My friend wanted gluten-free options and they rudely told him they didn't have anything. Prob won't be back.

"Exotic coffee shops like this are one of the reasons I love the city. A grungy coffee shop, bar and outdoor patio place all in one. The mocha MUD makes a perfect mid-afternoon Saturday coffee."
Ashley Chan - 8.8
"The vegan BLT was outstanding, the vanilla latte with oat milk was strong and smooth, and the vegan chocolate cookie was dark and rich. I can’t wait to return to this veg- and baby-friendly cafe!"
Anji P - 8.7
"The food is excellent, the menu has plenty of options and the service is friendly but it is so loud. Loud music playing on your ears when all u want is to drink your coffee in peace."
