Ground Central Coffee Company

Solid coffee in a nice and cozy place. We got a Drip Coffee and an Espresso and they were all good. As a coffee snob, I have to admit that I like my espresso in a ceramic mug and unfortunately, they didn’t have one. The server kinda made me feel dumb even for asking. This ruined my experience a little bit but I liked the coffee and atmosphere overall. Also, not a lot of seats available.

Loved the latte — smooth and perfectly balanced! The vibes here are cozy and relaxed, perfect spot to unwind or get some work done.

Place is tiny. Not sure why ppl are telling you can work there. 3 tables inside & outside. Espresso is fine. Nothing special. I think the most interesting thing about it is artistic walls & espresso machine was clearly pencil designed.

Two days later and I'm nowhere near this place, wishing I could have another delicious latte right now. Smoothest latte ever, perfect for a cold night. Friendly service, lovely books on display from the HueMan bookstore. Will visit this and other locations in the future!

i never write reviews for coffee shops bc it should be pretty standard to expect decent service that is respectful, fast, and the order tastes good. easy stuff. but this barista was strange and comes off as a bully. she forgot my order and made like 3 orders before mine, making me late to where i needed to be. then when i asked her where my order was, she was rude about it instead of just admitting she forgot to do it or got it wrong and needed to fix it. i happened to be the only black/brown girl in there so that didn't go left unnoticed. strange micro-aggressive staff in there. go somewhere else if you want a chill, normal coffee experience ahead of your busy morning.

Love this little coffeeshop. The service was great and the espresso was very delicious. Had an iced Americano and the flavor was great. The barista/cashier was also so warm and friendly. I did not have a pastry but they looked amazing; there were vegan and gf options. I will definitely come back for another iced Americano and to have a treat.

Walked in on a whim and am stuck on this coffee shop. I don’t even live in NYC and now I only want my lattes from here now 😂. First day I got an iced dirty chai, the second day I got an oatmilk iced vanilla latte and both were amazing! My mom ordered a cappuccino and said it was the best she’s had and it was so cute! I visit NYC often and this is my go-to now! We also spoke to a male barista that was super helpful and friendly they made our experience even better.

Great interior and ambiance. My iced oat latte was excellent — appreciate that the coffee isn’t too acidic like some places can be. And barista was very kind and made my day!
