Was happy to discover this compact, hip coffee shop just two blocks away from my hotel (the Moxy Chelsea). Was even happier to find out they’re one of few places in town already serving CBD-infused coffee. Had the cold brew and it didn’t disappoint - there was a slight kick to it, but the flavor overall was balanced.

Probably the best coffee we have had in the city. So happy we discovered this place after brunch at the Smith’s. I found it on google maps. I like the bunker style shop. Simple but aesthetically pleasing. The best thing about this shop is the barista and the coffee he made. I asked for a recommendation, and was asked about my preferences. Finally decided on the rosemary latte and it was awesome I enjoyed talking to the barista about flat whites and the technicalities of coffee. So sad we weren’t able to come back for another cuppa! And I forgot his name! But he is awesome!

Patent Coffee is exceptional. Their infusions are made from whole ingredients, are minimally processed, and incredibly delicious! The unassuming space is subterranean so look for the sandwich board outside. I have enjoyed a vanilla fig oat latte twice now. Looking forward to trying other flavors.

Ok, if you are a person who loves hot sauce, puts tabasco and sriracha on everything you must must must try the spicy boy coffee. It was so good. Been wishing for it everyday since. This place doubles as a bar in the back, I look forward to trying that next.

Great small coffee shop with friendly staff. There is a small set of stairs to go down to get access into the shop. Coffee was delightful and as a bonus I was able to use my mug! This was right down the street from the Chelsea flea market so location was convenient as well.
