Local Greenwich Village Café

Rooted in Village Coffee Tradition

We honor Greenwich Village’s rich coffee heritage while embracing modern convenience. Our neighborhood has been home to legendary coffee culture since the 1920s, when Italian immigrants first brought authentic espresso to American shores right here on MacDougal Street.

We understand that Village residents and visitors value both quality and efficiency. That’s why we’ve combined traditional coffee craftsmanship with innovative self-service technology that puts you in control of your coffee experience.

Located in the heart of a community where 42% of residents are busy professionals aged 25-44, we recognize that your time is valuable and your coffee standards are high.
