Best

If you like real coffee, come check out Gimme Coffee in Lorimer St, Brooklyn. They brew a mean coffee and there's a good vibe there as well.

I believe there's two of these in NYC, 5/31/2012

I believe there's two of these in NYC, but I hit the one in Manhattan. It's a small shop, but they make good coffee. I got a mocha which was pretty good, but a little bland for my taste, but it was quality coffee, and they did a fancy pour on it making it look nice. I would still recommend this place. Maybe it was the drink I ordered. My friend loved her latte. more

One of the better shops in East 5/10/2007

They have good espresso to work with (Leftist Blend), and more importantly, they know what to do with it. Thought they might slip a bit when Chris left for Atlanta, but Mike has held it together and they're still the kings (and queens) of Williamsburg for quality espressos and cappuccinos. Only gripe is we've found them closed at times around the holidays with no notice. Varietals selection also impressive and very good (had El Bergel CoE last trip). Pros: everything coffee, close to subway Cons: if you're just passing thru NY it's not the easiest to get to more

Amazing! 3/29/2007

This is the best coffee ever. Don't expect to hang out here all afternoon, as there are only three booths. Also, if they're available, get an almond croissant. It's absolutely perfect with an americano. more

Simply Amazing 6/28/2006

Why is so much better here? I wish all the coffee shops in the neighborhood made lattes this good. My morning train commute would be so much more pleasant if my fellow travelers enjoyed their morning coffee half as much. Plus they have pastries from Balthazar. What a great way to start the day... Pros: awesome coffee, awesome crossaints Cons: the secrets out! it's crowded during the morning rush hour more

Gimme! Coffee is on to something! 6/24/2006

After trying the Leftist espresso I am unable to drink coffee anywhere else in the city. They say that you can get anything in NY, well, this was a close one - Gimme! rocks! Pros: Best espresso in NYC, hands down! Cons: There is only one in the city. more

Decent, but not great. 7/8/2005

When I went, expecting the best coffee in the world, I was disappointed to find an ok but bland cup of joe served by surly hipper than thou type. The space is nice and the prices are moderate, but there are much better cups of coffee to be had in this city. Don't make a trip if it is out of your way. Pros: cheap Cons: staff surly, coffee bland more

Best coffee in the world!!!! 4/27/2005

Gimme is by far the best coffee I have ever had. I used to live in Ithaca and after tasting their coffee you literally can't have anything else and be satisfied. They roast their own beans in Ithaca and they will send it to yo anywhere. My father came to visit me at school and tried their mesa de los santos and immediately became a gimme junkie. He now orders online and gets about ten lbs. at a time. So for me to have a gimme cafe in New York is so nice, nothing can possibly compare, so if you cant make it out to williamsburg then just order it online and you will not regret it. Just be prepared to not accept anything less. more
