I love Ground Centrals. Great places to work, staff is fun and friendly, and the coffee is fine. Enough baked goods on hand in case I get snacky. This location is a junior version without living room seating or a bathroom (and they don't have a go-to bathroom recommendation nearby, which is also a bummer). I wish I'd known. I'd have gone to the nearby Lexington location.
Love the cool, chill city vibes this cozy little coffee shop has! They offer all the plant milks, and my soy dirty chai was made to perfection. Husbands macadamia chai was delicious as well. This place was a gem of a find in this touristy Grand Central neighborhood full of Dunks and Starbucks. Nice assortment of pastries and healthy snacks, even a couple of vegan sweets.
Little warm place to escape the frenziness of the city. And the coffee is amazing.
Hip coffee place. It seems like Ground central coffee chose to (successfully) focus on quality coffee brewing and so there are only several small snacks and light food available. Indoor seating is available but no WC. Prices are reasonable and the service was delightful. The bottom line: good coffee.
This is a cafe that reminds you that while coffee chains serve their purpose, a local coffee house is a place you want to be. Old records, classic music, floor to ceiling murals highlighting this location, unfinished industrial shop house New York feel all add to the experience, and you haven't even reached the counter tucked away at the back. Coffee options are numerous, I tried an organic single origin bean from Brazil, which was a medium strong roast that didn't wipe out the tasting notes. What was convenient if you are on the go was they will have this nicer bean in a filter coffee brew, normally limited to standard coffees. I tried a chocolate chip scone with my coffee which was generally good in taste and texture. Nice and efficient staff.
Update: their brewed coffee was good and it seems like their pastry selection has increased.
I tried their blueberry crumb muffin and it was good as well. The peach and raspberry muffin was just mediocre.
Their iced latte is milkier than I prefer it to be but still the coffee taste wasn't completely diluted. I would try their flat white next time.

This is an absolutely amazing coffee place. Coffee lovers will love this spot. While a lot of people go to Ground Central for their capucino, I always go for the regular Black coffee. I absolutely love the strong, bitter, toasty taste. Insider tip: you can buy a gift card for which you get more value than the price you pay. If you pay 75 usd, you get a 100 usd value. I always buy such a gift card and use it myself. That way I can enjoy my daily coffee at a good price.
PS: kudos to whoever gets to decide the playlist! Very different each day but always spot on!
