Daily Provisions - Upper East Side

Stopped by this location over Labor Day weekend to treat myself to something sweet. The black and white cruller here is amazing, and the manager really went out of their way to make the experience great.

New cafe recently opened. They have a good selection of different coffees and teas, pastries, and savory sandwiches. Since it's new it gets quite busy especially during breakfast and lunch rush time. There is a good amount of seating both inside and outside. I got the iced matcha tea and it was quite good. Prices for drinks are quite reasonable, sandwiches seem a little too pricy for what you get.

It’s a nice option for breakfast with decent food, but the prices felt a bit high considering the small portion sizes. The atmosphere is more suitable for a quick bite rather than a long, relaxed brunch with friends. If you’re looking for somewhere to sit and chat for a while, this probably isn’t the right place.

I went in and sat in a booth for 5 minutes no one came to me to say hi, let alone clean up the table. I got up and sat at the counter to see if I’d get service. There were about 4 waitresses in the place and 5 customers being served; 2 pairs, 1 solo. The solo diner sat in the same booth I was sitting at and a waitress cleaned her table and served her.No one even looked at me. After another 5-10min of this I got up an left. I saw someone with a number stand on my way out, maybe I should have ordered in advance but no one said anything. They just let me wait. So strange.

Terrible service and food from a cafe trying to pretend it’s a restaurant. All of the seating was taken up by people on their laptops either waiting on food or had just ordered coffee, so we had to get our food to go instead of dining in. The cashier was unhelpful explaining gluten free options, and it took 30+ minutes to get our order. The food is subpar for the price. My wife ordered a tomato soup and gluten free grilled cheese, and the soup had a layer of oil on top. I got the lovechild sandwich which was exploding with cream cheese, described as American cheese, and the croissant was burnt. Don’t waste your time or money here.

Nice space, really tasty coffee, friendly staff. Only problem is I had to wait about 8 minutes to get a cold brew with room, milk and sugar are self service. Y’all gotta get the cold brew tap to the person working the counter ‘cause having one barista making all the drinks (espresso, iced tea, cold coffee) for all orders (mobile, delivery, in-person) ain’t it.

Iced Latte and a Maple Cruller… You have to request syrup to sweeten the latte which is fine. But that damn cruller is the best thing I’ve tried all week- the texture is a mix between a donut and churro.. delicious! ❤️ Good customer service and nice ambiance!

Just takes forever to get a coffee. Always. I used to go all the time and then stopped going coz it was unbearably slow. Went back today. Nothing’s changed. It’s even slower. Coffee is good. No apparent rush yet it’s a very leisurely pace. Ordered at 3:07pm. It’s 3:23pm and I just handed my one Cortado order. No fancy / complicated stuff. 16 minute wait.

Really love this cute little place it's like a Cafe you would see in a movie. The staff are so friendly and helpful. I had a bacon, egg & cheese on an everything croissant (the croissant already has cream cheese inside fyi) as well as a cinnamon cruller and a Chai latte. The sandwich was absolutely delicious one of the better I have had and that says a lot bc I'm from NYC and grew up on the world famous corner store BEC. The Cruller was perfectly crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside with just the right amount of cinnamon dust. The Chai came in a nice sized mug not a tiny tea cup like some places the only downside was that it wasn't sweet. Can't wait to go back highly recommend.

I've been to the UES side version of Daily Provisions many times since it first opened. The large bowls of fresh salads, sandwiches, roast chicken, and pastries are excellently prepared. I have absolutely no complaints here. Every meal we had was first-class The main issue with this location is that the owners of this chain completely misjudged its popularity, and almost immediately, diners and computer geeks began to swamp the few tables available, making it very difficult for long-term residents and the elderly to find seats. Early on, I recommended that those working at laptops should be precluded from the large tables; however, Daily Provisions is too small (they should have kept the original space by the former Diner, Three Guys) to accommodate everyone. I believe this will detract others from nearby businesses and the hospital, Mount Sinai, from enjoying a good lunch. On top of this seating problem, Daily Provisions does not offer delivery as of this review, which is another ding in their needs. Waiting often in a long line can be a big turn-off and thus has restricted the number of times we have eaten at their UES location. I hope management is reading this review and will act accordingly, though it will be tough to accommodate a new seating arrangements and further traffic to their eatery!!

THE MAPLE CRULLER IS THE TRUTH. Seriously though the maple cruller was absolutely insane that even though we ordered one, when we were walking out we had to get another because it was that perfect. The Bacon egg and cheese sandwich was good. The bacon was really really good and peppery which added a lot of texture to the sandwich. The bread is noticeably nice, but it left me wanting a little more. The wake up sauce is fine but I would stick with the sandwich by itself. The coffee is Joes and it was decent coffee. The interior is like an upscale diner and I really enjoyed all the seating and the blue decor along with the tables outside and a lot of sunlight! All the workers were noticeably friendly! 100% come and try this place out you won't be disappointed and the maple cruller is A MUST!

Fine food and coffee. Just be mindful of the inconsistent service and rude. Apparently, they have a rule where you can't be on a device when sitting at a table - understandable so people do not park themselves for hours and hours.... But on a not-so-busy mid morning weekday when the place was only half full, I'm not sure how an iPad for 30 min is any different from someone sitting on their iPhone for an hour and even talking on it! And if a gentleman had been on his phone texting and making phone calls for half an hour - how is that ok vs someone doing a few emails on a small iPad? If that's the expectation and there are 5 servers standing around, then run it like a restaurant! Or, if you're going to run it like a cafe with a policy like this, then you need to post it and not tell someone when they're already settled and actively eating dine-in food.

Overall the food here is ok. But today my wife I decided to sit down and eat breakfast. We ordered and sat down. The table was so filthy. Dirty dishes were left and crap was stuck to the table. There was nowhere for us to place the dirty dishes or get a cloth to clean the table. A young woman came by and dope off our food (just the food on the plate. No utensils our napkins). She didn't say anything. Did take the dirty dishes. We were just having egg sandwiches, and I won't even comment on how messy that was.

My all time favorite neighborhood cafe! Everything here is delicious! If you're in the mood for comfort foods done well, don't miss this spot. The roast chicken is quite good. The Brussels sprouts hit the spot. The cheesy egg gougere is phenomenal. The patty melt is tasty. The chicken Milanese is done well. All of the crullers are divine! My favorite is the maple. Today I tried the gingerbread cruller which was on the subtle side but was good! I'd get it again! I love the salted fudge brownie. I'm so glad Daily Provisions opened in the neighborhood.

Got take out after an appointment at Mt. Sinai and could not stop eating! It may have the best Bacon, Egg, and Cheese sandwich I have ever had (definitely top 5 in NYC for sure)! The crullers are light, eggy, and crispy all at once. Could not believe our luck in finding this place!

So happy there's now a location on the UES! Their special black & white cruller for the occasion was amazing but you can't go wrong with maple! My favorite item here is the Lumberjack--a BEC breakfast sandwich with a FRIED egg and thicc bacon in between the maple cruller. Sweet and savory and really hits the spot. If you're not feeling the sweet, you can also get it with their everything croissant (the Lovechild)! It's a spacious location with tables inside and outside and bar seating as well.

So glad to see that Daily Provisions has opened on the upper east side. Great location to as it is near a hospital so all those doctors and nurses and therapists and office staff can get their caffeine fix and have yummy food before, after, during their shifts. There is indoor and outdoor seating. There is a bar seating area along with 4-5 tables inside. They serve coffee, pastries, breakfast sandwiches and Crullers which they are known for. I had the Bacon, egg and cheese in a poppy seed roll and I got a cinnamon cruller and a black and white cruller that some of the proceeds from this one goes towards city meals on wheels. I got a decafe Iced latte with regular milk which tastes fine. Nothing soo awesome but not bad. The Staff was very nice. As it is their opening day today it was a little hectic but nothing crazy. The only downside to this place is that, the garbage is by the door kind of hidden but if there is a line you will have to say excuse me to get to the garbage. Unless there is another garbage somewhere that I missed. If you are in the area I would recommend stoping by here.

I have been waiting for a long time for this location to open. There was only one cashier available on a busy Saturday morning (all of the parents of young children have descended upon this location already). They have about four four person tables for outside. Then some decent seating inside. The place can get very crowded since the line goes straight down the middle of the store. There is a bathroom in the back, which is clean and large. I got a raspberry and maple cruller. They were very, very sweet. The raspberry icing did not solidify yet, so it was still gooey but in a yummy way. The maple one had great flavor, but too sweet for me. However, I want to go back and try other items.

Poor attention to allergies and orders--have twice ordered decaffeinated coffee here only to come away with caffeinated.

I stumbled upon this place and so happy I did. I had avocado toast with smoked salmon and it was the creamy deliciousness I've had in a long time. I also ordered a chai, and a passion fruit doughnut. The service was nice and the place was cute.

I stopped in before work, I had a problem ordering online and the manager I assume was super attentive. I placed my order in store and it came pretty quick (5 minutes) I ordered the bec and the maple crueler. The crueler was definitely worth the hype although it was smaller than I thought so I don't think it's worth almost $5 (but I will be suckered into paying the $5 bc I can't resist) The bec left something to be desired, the bacon was super flavorful I wish there was more of it, it came with a house sauce and it was good but kinda lack luster. Overall I would come again, I really want to try their lunch options. They have a few seating options and the space is very modern and clean

I so want to give them 5 stars because their breakfast food was AMAZING. However, the cashier was pretty rude and their matcha was very clumpy. Back to the good stuff, the BEC on an everything croissant is a game changer! Super flaky and buttery, with some really thick bacon. And the crullers? Stunningggg. Would definitely recommend to eat if you're in the area

Daily Provisions is in my neighborhood now. It's brand new and spacious and super busy. Since I was early on a weekday I had no problem getting a window seat with my large drip. I paid $4.08 for the comfort and I'm glad I had three Sweet n Low in my bag. I found some non dairy Coffee Mate in my bag and used it too. My two favorite things that resulted in the Four Stars are the surroundings and the employees. Pauline was wonderful and the young man behind the bar answered my questions and gave me some additional information about their future plans. He said they plan to add more alcohol and have food for later in the day. If customers want an after work gathering place this may be a good option. If you walked by here on the weekend like I did you can see it's already very busy and they have only been open a couple weeks. If Daily Provisions meets your standards for a food and drink experience then by all means enjoy this new location. I think I'll stick with my local cafe not a chain.

Finally a daily provisions on the UES! Get the everything croissant!! Breakfast all day. They have some bar seating and 4 tables. Will definitely stop by here all the time.

My friend recommended the cronut here, so was excited to try it out. I downloaded the app and got one cronut for free! I was surprised by the quality of the pastry. It was flaky on the outside, but buttery on the inside.

Very solid Daily Provisions across the street from Mount Sinai. The food is quite solid and I highly recommend the chicken Milanese salad or the roast chicken. They also brew Joe's so a good option for a caffeine fix as well.

Love the cruller donuts...they are calorie worthy. That being said the sandwiches are also very good. The sides are the only items on the menu that are not worth ordering. Service is decent and the ambiance is lively.

Truly excellent coffee here. The line looks intimidating, but it moves quite quickly (we were in and out in 15 minutes). I see why this place is hyped up, the coffee is really excellent, I'll surely be back!

Big fan of daily provisions especially this location. Can get crowded but staff are friendly and efficient. Will return!

So happy with this location. Daily Provisions was spot on with this delicious food and comfortable outside seating I went there with my brother who is disabled and how lucky we were to get "Cali" as our server. She really cared and went out of her way to make our experience there 100x's better than I could have ever asked for. Thanks....

Great, friendly & helpful service. Good coffee & food. Nice location off of Madison Ave. with outdoor seating.

Worst place. They sent me the wrong order. I have had to call multiple times and didn't get anything resolved. This establishment does not have it together. The staff had an attitude on the phone and don't seem to know how to handle situations.

The crullers are AMAZING, especially the maple ones! We went 3 times while in NYC. The salted caramel lattes were delicious as well. Convenient location close to Mt. Sinai.

ALI was the BEST WORKER EVER! he was so kind and sweet and personable and very professional.
