For the busy, the coffee connoisseur and the traveler, here are three coffee shops I’d recommend to try around Hudson Yards. But of course, if a pastry and a cup doesn’t cut it, get a head start with wine and tapas at Mercado Little Spain.
Daily Provisions
Address: 440 W 33rd St Suite 90, New York, NY 10001, United States
Opening Hours: Daily 8:00am – 8:00pm
Daily Provisions is true to its namesake — anything on the menu is indeed a provision to the hungry stomach. Go for the chicken noodle soup, chicken salad sandwich and a cup of joe and that would be a power lunch. Also, come during opening hours, shy of 9:00am at the very latest, to grab their cult favorite Everything Croissant.
Blue Bottle Coffee
Address: 20 Hudson Yards #228, New York, NY 10018, United States
Opening Hours: Daily 7:00am – 8:00pm
If you happen to miss Daily Provisions’ Everything Croissant, fret not. Head over to the Shops at Hudson Yards and upstairs, Blue Bottle Coffee serves an Everything Cruffin. It’s a muffin and croissant, of course, but the everything bits is the reason why you’re here.
NYC transplants from the Bay Area will always get Blue Bottle’s default the New Orleans cold brew with almond milk, so try that out. Otherwise, the flat white is always a good choice.
Bluestone Lane
Address: 55 Hudson Yards, New York, NY 10001, United States
Opening Hours: Weekdays 7:00am – 4:00pm, Weekends 8:00am – 4:00pm
What I like about Bluestone Lane is their Flat White, and that you can order your cup Extra Hot. All this is done online.
There are probably 4 Bluestone Lane stores around Hudson Yards. But go for the one in 55 Hudson Yards. The outdoor seating is airy and spacious, perfect setting for meetings and coffee breaks. Just don’t go during the winter; the winds can get chilly as it’s near the Hudson River.
