Interlude Coffee & Tea

Iced matcha latte was mediocre and tasted quite watered down. I wouldn't have been as disappointed if it wasn't called the "best matcha in Tribeca," which it clearly was not.

love interlude! they’ve been an incredible cornerstone in the neighborhood for years with, perfect every-time, coffee, matcha, tea and delicious homemade pastries! and they always remember my name… i’m headed there now!

I just moved to the area on Lake Street and tried four different coffee shops to try to find my go to Interlude was by far the best within the four block radius. I really enjoyed talking to the owners and the coffee is just simply fantastic. Now I know why my neighbor strongly recommended this place above all the other shops.

review for matcha only - got an iced matcha latte and it was incredibly disappointing. they skimped on the matcha so it was really more like milk with a bit of green coloring. i also had honey as a sweetener which was just spread over the inside of the cup so it was really hard to mix with my drink (let alone it being mixed in to begin with).

They have an amazing vanilla latte! Their menu is concise, but that also means that everything on it is amazing! Inside is very clean and cool feeling, and the staff is friendly and certainly knows what they’re doing!

Such a great experience! I loved my coffee and haven’t tried the pastry yet so I’m excited to try it. Also I liked that the staff was friendly and communicative. Can’t wait to come back and try more! PS please bring a location to the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood :)

Pretty good vibes though slightly crowded at weekend Nice matcha and staff is friendly

Everything here is amazing! Their drinks are very smooth and without being overly milky or bitter. Their pastries are also very yummy, especially their sesame loaf! Will need to come back to try some of their signature drinks. The store space here is also very modern and quiet, really nice place to start your morning!

I always enjoy getting drinks at interlude if I'm in the area. The matcha is always good here and I love their matcha tonic. I decided to try their chai latte which I enjoyed a lot too. It's not too sweet and has a good amount of chai flavor. I love how they use big ice cubes so it doesn't dilute the drink too quick. My friend got the matcha and it's very smooth and not bitter. It has a nice earthy flavor without feeling too much. The people who work here are always friendly when I stop by even though not very often. I tried their madeleine and honey butter scone before and both were delicious, especially the scone. I definitely want to come back and try other pastries out.

Coffee here is good but expensive!! I know all coffee is expensive nowadays but my LORD this large vanilla latte with oat milk was $9 after tax!!! The coffee was good but the vanilla was not worth an extra $1, I could barely taste it, and overall not worth $9. They have a lot of good looking pastry options and there is a bit of seating inside and outside.

I came here to grab a coffee at 9am on a Saturday. There was a short line, and a few seats were open. I had a cortado; without tip, it came to a little over $5. While it wasn't as hot as I'd prefer, the flavor and texture were great. They also have some pastries, but they all looked a bit lackluster. Honestly, this seems to be a great spot if you like matcha! There seemed to be a few different types on the menu. They also sell cute pantry items (ex.: chocolate, bags of coffee, etc.).

The place gets busy even after the morning coffee rush. Very crisp and simple exterior. The menu on the board is very bare, but there's a more detailed menu in front of the cashier. Got a 12oz iced latte. There was a significant amount of ice, but strangely it didn't water the drink down too much. The coffee is strong, a great caffeine boost for the day. The sesame banana loaf had such a prominent banana smell, but the taste was lacking. Not much sesame flavor either. The coffee is a tad bit more expensive than already too expensive NY coffee.

I got their special drink, the Cadenza, which is a shot of espresso shaken over coca cola with foamy cream on top. If you liked the coke with coffee they had in stores for a while you'll love this. It was $10 which is really expensive in my opinion but considering they gave me a bottle of coke and used an espresso shot I'm okay with it as a specialty purchase. The interior is cute and the air conditioning was perfect. Not going to be an everyday place but I had a good experience! The baristas were really kind and informative too.

Came here to find a space to do remote work & got a matcha tonic. I'd say it's one of the better matchas I've had in the city (but that's also because most matchas I order are overly bitter). Great place to work, though it is a tiny space. If I'm ever around the region, I would return to try their coffee.

Really cute interior, but as a frequent matcha drinker I was a bit disappointed (was really really small, watered down, and overall not super worth it). I'd def recommend for the vibes (cute and sunny!) but not for the actual drinks, you can get much more bang for your buck elsewhere.

Cute cafe - the tables are always occupied so I would say this cafe is more of a take out place! This is in line with how fast their service are as you usually get your order within 2-5 minutes of ordering. I personally think that is fast for a cafe that makes quality coffee and tea. Most ppl get the matcha latte here, but I personally like their lattes (coffee) better. I only tried their cream cheese confetti cookie here (it was sooo good) so I will be back to try other cookies/baked goods here. :)

One of the best coffees in New York for sure. A perfectly pulled espresso with perfectly textured foam for the cappuccino. Will be a regular spot whenever I'm downtown.

Coffee shop near work so I thought I would give it another try, post-COVID. I got a cappuccino but thought it was very average for the size and it was also a bit on the pricier side.

I LOVE Interlude! I love the Howell beans served here, and am excited to try some of the beans at home! Lattes- 5 (both the 12oz and 16oz have 2 shots of espresso; it seems standard in NYC, unlike in other cities) Banana bread- 3 (it was moist but didn't have any nuts. Simply bread). Olive oil bread- 5! (Spongy and delicate... get it!) Service and location- 5+

Great coffee spot in Tribeca . Pastries backed fresh daily. Coffee roast to perfection. Choice of different milk. Good amount of coffee products. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

I adore Interlude. My friend and I frequent here. Kevin Jonas recommend it on our for you page and we were sold. I love the toasted sesame rice crispy and confetti cream cheese rainbow cookie. The coffee is phenomenal. I would try the Cadenza on a hot morning! They also offer an espresso tonic which I appreciate.

NYC has some of the best espresso.. and this spot did not disappoint. I went with an almond milk latte, and it was absolutely delicious. Smooth, strong, and so flavorful. Can't go wrong.

Was intrigued by the solid 5 star reviews. Good vibe & cute atmosphere-- very friendly service! Quality cups (like, literally the plastic cups are high-end). Even the ice cubes are aesthetic (big, actual cube shape). Quality, not bitter espresso & slightly sweet almond milk-- no sugar needed! Overall, a nice experience.

I love Interlude. It has my heart. It brings me joy. There are of course so many coffee shops in the city, so I am beyond pleased I stumbled into interlude one day. And then I just kept coming back. It's unassuming, minimal, clean, quiet, light, airy. The people are friendly. Everything is good. My husband really enjoys the coffee. I can't bring myself to order the coffee because I'm obsessed with the matcha. I also buy matcha from here to make at home. Ok, we also became slightly addicted to the rice krispy treats...seriously what is in those things? They are so good, the marshmallow is all toasty and they're giant and delicious. The sad part of the story is that we moved out of the city late 2019 and thought we'd miss Interlude forever. The silver lining of Covid was that Interlude was amazing and shipped their goodies. The parcels were packaged perfectly and always with a lovely handwritten note. Seriously. The best. Thanks for being you, Interlude.

What a sweet lil surprise. Great coffee. The matcha tonic is tasty, wish they had a large.

Interlude is a cool spot in Tribeca for your coffee, tea, and treat fix. We went with a gal pal who highly recommended it. I ordered my usual almond milk latte which paired well with the cream cheese funfetti cookie: a perfect combo for a coffee break. In addition to coffee (espresso, macchiato, cortado, cappuccino, mocha, Americano, Nitro cold brew), Interlude also offers matcha lattes, Masala chai lattes, and hot cocoa. All pastries are made in-house. If you're in the area, stop in if you need a little interlude of your own.

So I was going for a walk and it was of course freezing so on my walk back I looked up some coffee spots. I am so glad I stumbled upon this place. I got the mocha latte and it was AMAZING. Prob one of the best mocha's I've had in a while. The service was great and other items on the menu looked like they were worth trying too! It was just so smooth and not overwhelming sweet. I would come back and definitely recommend this place to others!

Simple menu with a super aesthetic interior! Currently they have a big divider between the customer and cashier, and most of the interior is closed off to customers. There are some tables outside. Echoing the other reviews here, the staff are super friendly and they make the drinks quickly. I didn't get a chance to try their pastries but their coffee is delicious. Drip coffee starts at $3.50 for a small cup before tax and tip.

Truly the best coffee in Tribeca and beyond. They're experts behind the counter and know how truly good coffee should be made (the beans are important, but it's not just about the beans). Service is awesome - warm, welcoming, and efficient. They care about your drinks being awesome as well as your experience in their shop. #BestOfTribeca PS - great latte art

The service is super friendly and sweet, and the baker Maggie is the best! I ordered an oat latte, funfetti cookie and gruyiere scone. All delicious! Highly recommend

Pretty expensive but a really cool vibe. If you want a really at market coffee then come to this place. I know that it is in New York City so I didn't expect to pay more than usual but for two lattes and a kombucha it came to just over 20 bucks before tip

Wonderful coffee shop in the Tribeca neighborhood that serves up the perfect cup of joe on a Sunday morning. I'd recommend everyone try out their Chai as well, it was delicious!

Big ice cubes....say no more. Tribeca vibes, iced Matcha Latte, chill music... perfect late afternoon.

This is the perfect place to pick up a drink before you rush into work or need a boost for the rest of your day! The staff is extremely efficient and the cafe has a fresh, clean ambience. I always order the Matcha Latte with oat milk and I enjoy how consistent the staff makes it here every time. They also have delicious sweets available and it's a comfortable place to have a casual rendezvous or to enjoy some solitude.

Wowow first time here and I can't wait to go back! Got an iced matcha and 2 scones - the Gruyère onion and the honey butter. They were both so amazing I've never had a scone that even comes close to how good those were. The matcha was great too! Would've attached photos but I ate them too fast.

Came here for the first time this morning before getting my hair done at Arrojo hair salon. Very clean and modern coffee place with extremely friendly employees. I ordered an iced matcha latte with whole milk no added sweetener and it was great! They make it with large iced cubes so the drink doesn't get watered down as quickly. Next time I'll definitely try iced matcha latte with oat milk.

Not bad my friend, not bad. The only thing I love in this world is a good coffee and Rice Krispie treats.

Interlude has been my go to coffee shop to start my morning or afternoon off! The coffee here is really delicious and most importantly, consistent. I find that some coffee shops and their coffee can be at times very inconsistent but here at Interlude, it's always been on point. Also, there in house baked pastries are a must try. I highly recommend the funfetti cookie and honey butter scone. Every time I stop by to pick up a coffee, I honestly can't resist picking up one of their baked goods. The siblings that run this coffee shop are so cordial and so kind. You can definitely feel their love and commitment to the high quality of service, experience, and taste. I love that I could support local neighborhood shops like Interlude and knowing that these two really care for their customers. I recommend coming here for your next cup of coffee or just checking out this beautiful space.

Sometimes simplest is the bestest. Great cup of coffee. Clean, modern location. Not a place to hang half the day on your laptop, yet if it's a good cup of coffee that you want, this is the place

Went here for a coffee with my husband and loved this place! Looks like this place is still new. The coffee was great, the interior design looked pretty open and modern too!

i'm rarely in this area but i chanced upon this spot and it's amazing!! i was searching for a coffee shop with wifi around where i was for the day, and this was perfect. there's ample room for sitting and enjoying a latte. the interiors are clean minimalist and peaceful the staff is super friendly and the coffee was delish :) they also have outlets and a bathroom would 10/10 recommend

Best coffee and tea in NYC! Not to mention that Melody, Josh, Seara, and the rest of the staff are all amazing. They are super friendly and consistently provide the best customer service. Oh and all of their pastries are delicious and made right there in house. 100% recommend stopping by if you're in the neighborhood and if you're not, it's a good enough reason to make the trek!

This is an outstanding establishment. I'm not aware of any other coffee shop in New York that serves George Howell coffee. George Howell of Boston is a mover and shaker in elevating the specialty coffee category. If you want to spend $32 on 8 ounces of exquisite coffee beans, hurry on down.

Extremely clean coffee and tea place. Nice people, very friendly, much quieter cleaner and charming than Starbucks. Artesanal Chinese teas and large clean bathroom. Kid friendly. Good place to read or study. Music calming subdued and relaxing atmosphere compared to the chains.

I was thrilled when I heard through the grapevine that this place had opened, because I literally work next door and generally have limited free time to grab a coffee or a bite to eat. Much to my delight, I have found this place to be much more than a subjectively convenient location. The owners/baristas are welcoming, friendly, and pleasant to talk to. The coffee is excellent (I'm partial to the hot mocha but everything I've had here is legit, including the iced coffee.) Their savory scones are, no joke, my new go-to's. I tried their cheddar onion scone this morning and I swear I have finally found my spirit pastry. So stop on by and give this place some love. It's one of those rare NYC spots that's the whole package and I want it to stick around for awhile!

Everytime i use this shop my card number gets stolen. They need a serious security overhaul and I would avoid at all costs.

First time here and loved it. Their malted chocolate chip cookie was delicious- soft, chewy, chocolatey. I also enjoyed a cup of hot latte. Service was great. I love the interior design, simple and modern. If you're nearby, definitely go check it out.

Terrific matcha latte!!!!! I loved the atmosphere and the high ceilings. It was a great quick getaway on Friday after work. Would definitely come back for more matcha

Let me tell you, Interlude Coffee & Tea was extremely good. Delicious menu items at good prices, fantastic atmosphere to unwind at. Everything was fresh, healthy, and very delicious. The workers were extremely good, smiled a lot, felt genuine. How could you not love Interlude Coffee & Tea?

Nitro cold brew is excellent, variety of teas, including cold brew tea. Must try the pastries, we loved the scones, maple blueberry muffins and cookies!

Interlude is the perfect spot...super friendly, easy to order ahead for pick up....and THE BEST iced (flash brew!) coffee I've ever had!

The staff is so friendly! Usually I would never comment on that but they are just so friendly. The baked goods are so delicious. You must try the honey scone!! And the coffee is amazing. I highly recommend you going to this coffee shop. In a time when there are a million coffee shops on every corner, this one is something special.

Interulde is a small coffee shop in the heart of Tribeca. This is my new go to spot for first dates and coffee. You really cannot go wrong with Interlude. Despite the size, I occasionally I work out of the coffee shop.

Amazing staff and atmosphere. The coffee is immaculate. There is a restroom and would recommend coming here for any occasion!

Interlude is a neighborhood gem that Tribeca is so lucky to have. The unbelievable staff who could not be sweeter and more welcoming to the delicious drinks and pastries, this coffee and tea shop is as good as it gets. For all who find themselves meandering in Tribeca or the city at all, Interlude is a must go to spot.

Interlude has the best matcha in the city by far and their pastries are unparalleled. I've been coming here for the last 2 years and Melody, Josh and the whole staff are the kindest most pleasant people to see first thing in the morning. If you are in the neighborhood, this is an absolute must!

I'm so glad my love for caffeine has led me to Interlude! This place is an absolute gem. I usually order my go to which is an Iced Cortado with Oat Milk. Their ice cubes are fairly large which in my opinion makes up the perfect iced coffee without the overwhelming amounts of ice. The staff are SUPER friendly and always consistent every time i stop it (which is often). The baked goodies are homemade and equally delicious! Don't hesitate on stopping in, you wont regret it.
