Irving Farm Coffee Roasters

“All over the city, there is no other coffee spot that oozes comfort and ambiance as this quaint little place near by Union Square.”

“In fact, almost 20 years ago, they opened up their first location at 71 Irving in Gramercy.”

“Lattes are perfect every time and you must try the Carrot Cupcake if they have em.”

  1. I guess it's time that I reviewed Irving Farm considering I'm here almost everyday. It's the best option for coffee in my hood (Pushcart on 2nd ave comes in second).

    Usually I prefer cold brew, but their pour over iced coffee is excellent. They have a huge selection of pastries from top bakeries like Ovenly and Balthazar. It's probably the largest selection I've seen at a coffee shop. They do a great job trying to entice you with them while waiting in line! When I work from home, their chicken avocado sandwich is one of my favorites for a quick lunch.

    One major thing you should know is that this is not the best coffee shop to sit and study or get some work done (even though many still do). I'm not sure what's up with the acoustics here but it gets incredibly loud – almost to the level of a bar when the place is full. It's a popular place in the neighborhood and definitely a favorite of mine.

  2. Cute little coffee shop with a good variety of pastries. I've tried their ice coffee and espresso and both were good. Not too bitter or sour. The only thing I didn't like is that you can't add your own milk. They add it for you.

    I also tried their rice krispie treat and it's HUGE. Like the size of my head. Ok, a little smaller but it's a big cube! It was tasty!

  3. I'm not a coffee drinker, so this review is more for the pastries rather than beverages (though everyone in my office attests to the fact that this is the best coffee shop around). I've tried a few different things here, including the banana chocolate chip muffin, the blueberry muffin, salted chocolate chip cookie, and a scone. All were good but a little too dense. That being said, I love the space it's in and they have tons of seating.

  4. Electric crow logo! Love this place. Place looks unmarked – walk down a flight of steps to get some great pastries, teas, and coffee and chat with a friend (if you can grab a table at this highly popular space) or take a walk in the lovely neighborhood outside.

  5. Has the arnold palmor. Nice and refreshing choice when you don't want to opt for a non-coffee drink here. Good lemonade & tea balance

    Came here to chat and catch up with two of my friends. Ended up talking for quite a while. Smaller tables all bunched together so come in a smaller group or solo to chill. A little louder and at times I felt like I was yelling to my friends.

    Very crowded and happening on a Saturday afternoon

  6. Best way to celebrate (NFP) Friday was for sure a cup of iced latte. Established back in 1996 by two friends, Irving Farm definitely brewed one of the better espressos here in the city!

    Apparently they also serve a handful of pastries; and proudly carry donuts from the famous car wash place Underwest. Very spacious inside as well, and even a upstair!

  7. Very cute coffee spot in Gramercy. Good to get a coffee or a specialty drink like their homemade chai tea lattes (they're delicious), or to grab a bite to eat and sit at one of the tables (hard to get a table most times). Be prepared to know what you would like to order – they get a bit testy when you aren't sure what you want. It's usually quite busy here, but the line moves fast.

    Come here if you are looking for a cozy, cute local spot to get coffee instead of a chain place.

  8. Super ~~cute~~ coffee place. They have a bunch of little tables and chairs up front that you can snag in the morning if you're lucky. It's a bit chaotic and there wasn't anyone clearing tables so you may have to bus someone's old food to get a table.

    The baristas were nice and very fast… The line was out the door at around 10am on a Sunday morning but they kept it moving.

    We both ordered a small coffee, ($2) and the coffee was super strong, hot and smooth.

    They don't have almond milk but do have soy…the pastries look homemade and really delish, would come back to split the the sweet ginormous rice krispy treat with my ~~sweet~~
