Nothing special about this Cosi or any other stores I've gone to over the years. This is one of a few coffee and quick food franchises in the area. Located in Midtown East a few blocks from the subway. The prices for coffee and general bites are standard to other Cosi locations but did seem a bit much for the quality. The staff are attentive but can be a bit loud when talking to one another. I came mid-day when it wasn't too busy but yet a good steady flow of people coming in/out. If you do order food, it seems you can see the entire work station from beginning to check out. Nothing impressive.
I've come here many times before during work lunch hour, latest being coming for #FeedtheCity 11/20/2015 when I had the free chicken pesto sandwich. The WiFi's very fast. The tables in the rear alcove are quite private with power outlets near 3 of the 8. The staff are very optimistic & seemingly very happy & their service reflects it. You can clearly see all the steps from making the dough, rolling it, baking it in the open oven, cutting it to sandwich sizes, making the vegs, mixing the ingredients, everything. The freshness is evident & a large part of why Cosi's so healthy & satisfying. I always come back to Cosi. This Park Ave location is very convenient with an interior long size that belies its humble frontage.
Fresh bread, satisfying meal..
I work close to this Così location and have been meaning to try it for a while. I had a craving for tomato soup. I ordered their tomato basil soup and paired it with the Bacon, Turkey, Cheddar Melt.
The soup was good. It was fresh, hot and just what I was looking for. The melt was delicious. Awesome flat bread (Così's highlight) with quality ingredients served with a spicy honey mustard.
The establishment was somewhat empty when I visited. There was plenty of seating and no line to order. The cashier seemed like she didn't want to be there but the employee preparing my meal was friendly and helpful, especially as a first time customer.
The prices were a little high but….NYC.
I may come back when I have another soup craving.
I came here to grab a quick snack today to take advantage of their homeless awareness deal. The place wasn't crowded at all and the line moved relatively quickly. In fact, I ordered my sandwich, sat down and ate and the whole process was only about 15 minutes.
I had the chicken pesto sandwich and it was pretty good for a free sandwich. There's not much to complain about when something is free. Also gave money to the donation box on the way out. I like how complementary snacks are offered at the register so that's a plus. You have your choice of baby carrots or potato chips. I settled for the chips.
Overall, I enjoyed my first free experience here.
We came here after 6pm and it was empty…took forever to get a sandwich though. The problem is the pace at which the sandwich maker is moving, at a snail's pace. Wow, I never seen someone move so slow to make a sandwich. Obviously they are in no hurry. If they moved this way at lunch, I can see a huge line here.
I find Cosi a bit pricey for what you get. It's just a sandwich. We got two sandwiches for $17.83. That is nearly $9 for each sandwich which are not especially big. They are just the right size for one meal but we've been spoiled by Sal Kris & Charlie's Deli in Astoria where you pay $8.25 for a sandwich that is loaded with meat and fixin' and feeds two people easy. I don't know about Cosi sandwiches. I do not find they are worth the money they are charging. For $9 I expect more from a sandwich at Cosi.
Love it! Great service and food is always good. This is one of their new items- spaghetti squash. Also love their bread (when toasted not burnt) as well as their signature salad and bowls.
Stopped in for a late lunch today with my co-worker. It was nearing 2:30 and there was no line and plenty of open tables to choose from. Decided to stick with my usual order today: taste two with 1/2 a chicken tbm and tomato basil soup. My friend ordered the same meal minus the chicken.
Sat down and started with the tomato soup. We love their recipe here, always consistent and always so yummy. Worked my way to my sandwich and I couldn't help but feel like I was biting into a ball of wasabi… THAT was unexpected. It was definitely the dressing- Soo strong and pungent! I was so confused since I order the same two things everytime I stop in and never once had the flavor hit me this hard!
My friend put her taste buds to the test as she bit into her tbm… Yup! Not just me. We took our meals back to the ladies working at the salad counter to address the offness. They tried the dressing for themselves and confirmed there was too much dijon mustard poured into the bottle. They apologized and were shocked that no one else complained as it was already the middle of the day. Right away they offered to fix the mixture and make us new sandwiches. Muuuuch better, and we were really pleased with the way they handled the situation. Thanks ladies! We'll be back for our tbm/tbs fix soon.
It was okay. I had to clean the table because it was dirty but that's not a big deal. When I got my salad, it appeared a little messy but it was good. I had better salads before. I would go back for lunch if there was no other choice
