Rubén García: I rarely drink mocha, but their Gotham chocolate mocha is very good! They make it with real chocolate as opposed to the syrupy stuff other places use
Alex Tsu: Spacious, well-lit location with delicious coffee and tea. As far as coffee in midtown goes, For Five is a true gem.
ℳ𝒶𝓎♍: Starbucks who! For Five is a great spot in Midtown for all those coffee snobs out there like myself! Staff are incredibly friendly and welcome me warmly every morning I swing by, can't go wrong here!

Serious Eats: Chocolate Coffee Cake. Is this a muffin? Well, it's baked in a muffin tin, so we can pretend. The tin gives the perfect texture—light and fluffy on the inside, crisp on the outside. Delicious. Read more.
Village Voice: Winner of Best Doughnut Masquerading as a Cake in the Village Voice 2011 Best Of issue! The chocolate coffee cake is the best of both worlds.
Paul Lomax: Controversially, I didn't actually enjoy the Brisket Sandwich. However, I loved everything on the 'raw bar' menu! Great grilled fish (Skate) too, and a good wine list (esp the Santorini).

Coffee Shop · Alphabet City · 110 tips and reviews
The Corcoran Group: Chill, cute and unpretentious coffee shop – eerily similar to the one on Friends. Get a standard Iced Coffee or go a little fancier and get a Double Chocolate Mocha Espresso Freeze.
Tara A.: Good wifi, single tables great for work, and awesome salad. Get the double chocolate mocha espresso freeze.
Adam Burrell: Great coffee. Even better vibe. Sit and chill. Great rainy day in the village sit and ponder life spot.
Kate Furman: The chocolate coffee with milk cartons can only be found at stumptown coffee shops.
Simon H: Best coffee place in the city. All their coffee comes fresh from their Brooklyn roastery. Awesome surroundings, superb barristas. The most passionate coffee peeps in Manhattan. Get pumped!
Mike Singleton: Between the decor, music, and forced old-timey garb, this flagship store ends up feeling a bit like a set on sleep no more. If you hear loud techno music...head that direction.

Varun Shetty: Cozy place. Should do all meetings here. Churros + chocolate +coffee >> coffee.
Kat: Cafe bombón and churros with dulce de leche - a perfect treat. Get a taste of Madrid with a bocadillo de calamares (the madrileños). Ask for a lemon to squeeze on it.
Thrillist: The Spanish are conquering the Aztecs again, this time by having the chef at LC dip fried dough in Spicy Aztec Chocolate. Read more.
