"Cafe Grumpy in Chelsea has two big things going for it. The first is that there’s no wifi here, so you won’t be surrounded by 23-year-olds who are “thinking about thinking about applying law school.” The second thing is their plant-filled back garden. Sit here when it’s nice out, and drink something cold. Or hot, if you’re unfamiliar with how body temperatures work." - Hannah Albertine

The honey oak latte will make anyone feeling grumpy smile. The sweetness is just about right and the baristas do a credible job with their artistry in the cup. One feature I really like is that you can get a real cup over paper waste if you are there to stay. Atmosphere is pleasant and this is a good stopping place.

Nice shop with varied menu of coffee, tea, and baked goods. Plenty of seats for two but not much space for groups bigger. Got a nice patio for outdoor seating and even grumpy merch. I ordered a latte which was pretty tasty. They also sell beans here for $20 a bag.

Sustainability: Some compostable plastics, others no. Heavy plastic waste but they do have a discount for bringing in your own cup and can do hot and cold drinks in glass/ceramic to stay. They try, and with some tweaks could become more sustainable. Would like to see more organic/fair trade products. Overall ok but still a work in progress to eliminate as much waste as possible. Service: Friendly and quick. Drinks: Very good drinks. Flavorful. I enjoyed the vanilla latte and the honey and oat iced latte. Ambiance: Simple ambiance, back room is very Spartanly decorated. Value: One of the most expensive coffee shops I’ve been to. $5.50-6.50 is pricey for a drink, even for a sustainably sourced and iced one in Manhattan. Would come back overall.

I went to pick up the coffee beans I ordered yesterday. And I was so excited to try it as soon as I get back to airbnb. I use the hand grinder I carry it around when I am traveling. And do the dripping instead of syphon when I was in Taiwan. And the color is so beautiful, and it has lots of fruit acidity. I love it so much. 😀🤞

Cozy. Kind people. Good tunes. Great place to warm up on a chilly day or read on a cloudy winter day. Pro tip- bring your own cup. #reuse #reduce morning glory muffin + hot chocolate = yum.

Tasty almond croissant and flat white. Nice cosy atmosphere. Coffee is a little on the dark roasted side but fine with milk.

Love this coffee house. Delcious coffee. Speedy and super kind service. And plenty of seating both indoor and out. Great place to get work done. You will be far from grumpy if you go here.

Went for a coffee just before the 6th Avenue spring fair and I must admit I went partially for the name but man this place was good , a real laidback bohemian vibe. Had to buy the some of the merch with the Grumpy logo as its pretty cool. A really nice place for a laid back Sunday morning coffee
