NYC’s New Restaurant Openings

"For a cup to brighten your day, check out Vibrant Coffee in Greenwich Village. The coffee shop is full of flowers, and has a lovely bench out front that looks ideal for a gossip session over iced lattes." - will hartman

Loved the modern but comfy aesthetic of this place, beautiful flowers and plants outside! The menu is simple but has plenty of options from coffee to pastries to other sweets. Flavors they have - chocolate, caramel, sugar free hazelnut, simple syrup. Barista was really nice and made a great latte. We got almond and oat milk for ours. Would love to try the affogato here next!

Came to see my friend who lives in the area. Very local cafe, apparently it’s the best in the area. I really like that they have outdoor seating and everything was very quick and efficient. Bathroom was clean, no changing table for people with babies. Although plenty of families come here. And the barista are talented. I got a swan design on my cup.

Charming little coffee shop with just a few tables. I really liked the rounded shape of the counter, it makes you feel close to the baristas! In the morning, it’s especially pleasant: there’s space to sit and the cafe is good.

One of those cozy NYC spots. The barista is amazing — makes great lattes, always perfectly balanced and smooth. The vibe is warm, intimate, and very New Yorker. A perfect little escape in the middle of the city🤍

beautiful little coffee spot. i got a cold brew. it was pretty good, but the space and staff were way better than the cold brew. they played cool electro jazz. in terms of ambience, this is the best coffee spot i know of in NYC! can’t wait to come back!

Chaotic and crowded,but serves up great coffee and fresh pastries. Nice outdoor seating too.

Amazing coffee taste. It can be seen that the owner has a particularly strong emphasis on the quality of the taste of coffee and other products. Absolutely amazing...nothing else to add except the location is great, a peaceful and quiet place where you can enjoy your coffee, either inside or outdoor in front of the cafe, because the street is usually closed and there is no traffic, which adds to the enjoyment Folks I highly recommend it

👍🏻It’s all about sustainability! I’m so glad to finally find a cafe here that actually serves coffee in real mugs instead of disposable cups, I’m a loyal customer from now on!

Nice cozy no laptops or tech allowed coffee shop. But yes people were on their phones ! Loved the fresh espresso smell when you walked in and the croissants baking. It's not very big but they have seating all around and we managed to snag a spot. They have a basic coffee house menu with some pastries they bake in house. I had a cappuccino and so did my friend and a latte for my other friend. They have all the milks and the real cups if you drink in house! Prettiest designs the make in their coffees! And they fill it to the brim with no spillage . Simple and minimalistic set up but it works as it was packed. I would definitely come here if I was a local. The cappuccino was excellent . Great creamy, frothy and just enough strength. Loved vibrant!

Stumbled upon this cute little coffee shop while I was in the area! I was surprised at how calm and serene it was, especially with the plants and slow jazz in the background. The cortado was nicely dialed in. The matcha latte was surprisingly yummy with a strong matcha taste. Their matcha wasn't too bitter and milk ratio was appropriate. Staff were friendly. I could tell this place is popular amongst the local community since staff seemed to know several customers. They don't allow computers. I can see myself coming back to chat up with others or for a solo date!

I came here early on a Saturday morning. The interior is really cute. A circular counter takes the center of the room, with plenty of seating around the counter. Lighting is great from the large windows, and the staff is super friendly. Clearly already a local spot, with several older ladies ordering on a first name basis. They are a no laptop shop though! I got a cortado, and it was solid. The roast was a bit darker than I like, so the cortado had a bit of a bitter acidic aftertaste. Exactly the right ratio of milk to espresso, resulting in a really nice mouth feel. Overall, awesome spot. Could definitely waste an hour or two away in the morning (as I did). Highly recommend!

Such a cute coffee shop in the west village with some great coffee, matcha and yummy sweets! Service was quick even though the line was out the door. Great place to sit and people watch!

Coffee is on the pricier side (I paid a little more than $7 for an almond milk latte) but it was pretty good, on the bitter side but decent quality beans. They offer almond, oat, and skim. Cute shop with limited seating.

I love it here! The location is perfect for the mornings when you just want to sit by the window and mentally prepare for your day. The coffee quality is consistent...perfect every time! The service is personable and always welcoming. Their vibe definitely sets the tone of a small town coffee shop which I love. Pastries are fresh everyday and always smell amazing. You can tell they are passionate about their environment and what they add to the neighborhood. It has quickly become my favorite place!

For the Absolute most delicious coffee, real fresh squeezed juices, scrumptious bites journey to this bright beautiful welcoming new Coffee Shop nestled across a billionaires mansion away from the hustle and bustle in the west village on the most delightful part of Waverly place. The lovely owners Stefan and Theodora have created a magical setting inside and out! They are so accommodating as they graciously serve you your coffee at your charming table, like a 5 star European experience! There's a constant stream of customers as they cater for take out. Hats off to this impressive young couple who are doing everything right and whose vision for growth is unique and exciting! Truly my favorite place in the west village!

Love this charming Village coffee shop...great coffee drinks, as well as some delicious fresh pastries. It's quiet, welcoming, and the folks who work there actually smile and have amazing memories about drink orders. Heading there shortly....

I came here to get a coffee and work outside there was barely anybody in the joint. I told the staff I was coming to work outside. About 10 minutes later I was told it's a no laptop shop ... there is no sign for that and also I'm alone outside who cares? Everybody else inside was on their phone essentially tiny laptops. Also the coffee isn't even good $7 for a cold brew that tastes like bean water.

the entire place is incredible. the staff is so sweet. the coffee is amazing. i always like to try the espresso before trying other espresso based drinks. it's a bit darker than what i like but there's definitely love and care with the drinks that are made.
