Glorious! – Some coffee snobs post that NYC can't brew a good cup of espresso because the water here is too "hard." That's BS. I've just finished a Mochaccino from Macchiato, and it was perfect?rich and well-balanced, with no sour notes and most importantly, no burnt tar taste from over-roasting like the mermaids do. The only reason NYC is not in the coffee valhalla along with Portland, Seattle and Vancouver, is that Macchiato hasn't been here as long as the other towns' stalwarts. There are some good coffee shops in William... read more

Business response:

First of all, I thank you sincerely for your very kind words. I am also very happy you enjoyed the food and drinks here. This is indeed the reason we bake and make everything here on the premises (too many 4 day old muffins and croissants out there wrapped in plastic). Last but not least, consistency is a battle I fight to win everyday, and I believe it is crucial to an establishment. I hope your next visits are just as enjoyable, and look for me the second they stop and it shall be corrected. Thank you again. Tal Macchiato ... read more

Some of the best coffee in New York – This is the place Midtown Manhattan has needed in forever. I both live and work in Midtown East and never had a place to go for REAL espressos. The staff is extremely nice and their place deserves recognition.

FINALLY!!! A fresh approach to lunch & coffee!!! – The sandwiches are absolutely delish!!! And not wrapped in cellophane!! The coffee is magnificent as well as the hot chocolate. Don't forget to have a delictable cookie or pastry for dessert. It is not your everyday coffee house...it is a refreshing alternative to the overpriced corporate coffee mills. Give it a try, trust me, you'll go back for more!!

BEST ESPRESSO EVER, GREAT ATMOSPHERE, FOR THE YOUNG AT HEART! – I went to cafe Macchiato while in the city on business (I am in 3x per week), I found this place from a colleague that told me that if I want the best coffee in NY to go to this Espresso Bar. I have traveled the world over and had many a cup-of-joe, and this was not an ordinary experience, the people were polite, accommodating and so generous with free samples of all fresh baked products. I sat looking out a huge window and read the NY Times while watching this ... read more

If you miss European espresso, Macchiato will get you there like the Supersonic Concorde. – This stylish cafe trounces the Seattle mermaids that surround it. If you love good espresso, the owner pours it perfectly himself. You would never consider putting sugar in your Cotes du Rhone. Likewise, it would be a shame to sweeten this espresso and miss all the flavors an aficionado can skillfully release from the brown bean.

Fantastic addition to the neighborhood! – Macchiato is a wonderful addition to midtown. The staff is great and friendly, service is fast and most important the coffee and food is fresh and delicious. Best cappuccino I have found in in the area and the best part is everything is baked there fresh. The pastries are so rich and flavorful. Lunch is terrific as well. Fresh bread..... everything made to order.... what could be better? I can't eat another pre-made sandwich! It's a really nice atmosphere, very loungy and inviting. I... read more
