"Aiming to be the Cheers of coffee shops, this come-as-you-are Midtown spot is perfect for meeting a new face, finishing work, or grabbing a serious cup of coffee. The owner, Soonkack Kook, is a coffee connoisseur and roaster who imports beans from around the world and roasts them in-house. The iced citrus Americano latte, inspired by his trip to the Korean island of Jeju-si, has become a recognizable signature not only for its citrus slush but also for the frozen bear made of coffee that sits on top, making sure the drink stays cold but not diluted." - Brianna Griff
