Irving Farm Coffee Roasters — Upper West Side

Editor's Review

This bustling Irving Farm location – located as it is in the ground level of an Upper West Side rowhouse – echos its flagship café on Irving Place, with a long wooden bar from which to order any of the company's numerous single origin roasts and blends, all roasted up in the Hudson Valley by Irving Farm themselves. A full kitchen is in effect here, with an array of hot and cold dishes like sandwiches, egg-y things, and ample salads, along with an overwhelming pastry case spanning the gamut from Colson donuts to improbably low-cal muffins.

The crowded front space opens into a larger back room, replete with skylight and a tiny nook holding a couple of more private tables, if you can score them. There's no WiFi, though – so what would be a workplace for many remains a convivial atmosphere for a decidedly Upper West Side clientele. (Do say hello to the purse dogs you'll meet lounging by the patio tables right out front.)
