Manhattan Espresso Cafe is a cute grab 'n' go spot with a delightful European feel. The pumpkin muffin I tried was fantastic--moist, flavorful, and perfect with their robust coffee. An excellent place for a quick and delicious pick-me-up.

Fantastic place. Service is always so nice and friendly, and their fresh baked pastries & brownies are always so good. I go a couple times a week to get coffee and sometimes fruit or a pastry.

Excellent. Quality espresso and drinks. Bakery items were obviously fresh made from scratch and were delicious!! Bummed we didn't realize they are closed on the weekends and missed grabbing more baked goods before leaving NY Sunday night. Chocolate pound cake and individual blueberry lemon pies made with whole wild blueberries were soooo good.

This place is a true hidden gem in the middle of a busy area. The attention was superb and the cappuccino was made and tasted to perfection! I would absolutely go out of my way to get a morning coffee here.

Legit espresso. I lived in Seattle for 15 years and know what a good cup tastes like (not starfucks). This was solid.

Excellent cold brew and really kind staff. There's a great selection of flavors if you're into that sort of thing but the cold brew on draft did it for me.

A small, local, charming coffee shop with delicious bites. The artichoke crostini was flavorful and fresh and my house blend coffee was smooth. The place is adorable and decorated lovingly. Thanks!

Best cappuccino! It's so tough to find a proper cappuccino these days... especially one that doesn't taste like a latte. This place does it right. They also have interesting doughnuts... I love passion fruit so was excited to pick up a passion fruit doughnut.

Manhattan coffee is a great small shop for coffee in midtown east. The barista is super friendly and when you walk in, it smells like pastries and coffee. Best feeling in the world every morning before work! Coffee is made using illy beans and pastries are house made. I've had every single coffee drink on the menu so I'll comment about espresso based drinks and coffee. Espresso - beans are freshly grinded (as required for a good shot) and the barista does a super good job pulling it. Espresso shot cuts through any espresso based drink. Coffee is good for brewed coffee. The iced coffee and cold brew coffee is actually pretty much the same thing. Try their red eye as they do a good job on the espresso shot and it actually comes through past the coffee. One tip is on a cold summer day and want a sugary drink - get their version of the frappe. It's not too sweet but taste amazing! One complaint - they don't do pour over method coffee so you just have to get house dripped if you want just black coffee
