Un Caffe

"Aiming to be the new “Cheers” of coffee shops, this come-as-you-are coffee spot is perfect for meeting a new face, finishing some 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, Brittany Britto Garley

"Un Caffe in Midtown knows its audience: people who like coffee and also happen to need a spot to study or do some work. The small, one-room cafe serves a small menu of espresso drinks, baked goods, and snacks, and it’s generally pretty full of folks hunched over a laptop. Plus, some of the ice drinks arrive with an adorable bear-shaped floating ice cube on top. Good coffee and something cute? Sign us up." - chelsea thomas

There are  more outlets than seem necessary, and the wifi is free, if sometimes a little spotty. But the coffee and service is friendly enough that you might welcome a distraction or two between bouts of productivity. Plus, the iced coffee drinks come with an adorable bear-shaped coffee ice cube–a reason to visit in and of itself." - chelsea thomas
