Kona Coffee Roasters | Midtown 100 Park Avenue, Manhattan, New York 10017

"Surprisingly big for an NYC coffee spot. My barista was friendly with helpful suggestions. The coffee had a nice flavor, making me wonder if Hawaiian is my new favorite?"

"So glad I added Kona Coffee to my stop in the city this time as it delightfully exceeded expectations! I travel the world visiting cafès and trying coffee in every form. Here at Kona I tried the Hawaiian latte, the Rose cardamom and the Mocha. The menu has options you won’t see in other coffee spots, but they are within the art of coffee and not wild concoctions based on artificial flavor add-ins. The rose latte was perfectly balanced where the espresso played a subtle note to the drink. There was nothing over powering or syrupy about this latte. The Hawaiian was a stronger espresso flavor but perfectly sweetened. The baristas did not compromise drink quality or artistry for the sake of expediency, yet they were incredibly efficient and quick to get drink orders to customers during my morning visit. There is plenty of seating in this clean and delightful cafe. Definitely will return."

"Tried their Hawian coffee which was excellent. Their cheese bread was a miss. It smelled eggy and not good. Visit this place for their excellent coffee. Slightly on the expensive side. Recommended: Hawaiian Latte (the best!)"

"This is our go-to coffee place when we are near Grand Central. The café is bright, clean, spacious, and has plenty of seating with outlets - the upstairs area is a little quieter with larger tables for people who want to work. We happen to love coffee from Hawaii, but the fact that the staff care about their product and take time to make the coffee well makes the coffee taste that much better to us. Also, the pastries are baked in-house, so they are fresh - the almond croissant was especially flaky and tasty. For chocolate lovers, they sell bars of chocolate made by Mānoa, a boutique chocolate maker based in Kailua (O’ahu) as well. Lastly, we greatly appreciate that they have a filtered water dispenser (like the ones at the airport) for customer use - a really nice perk."

"I came for a quick breakfast while in the city for work. It’s brightly lit and has a welcoming vibe. The cashier was nice and steered me into a good food selection for breakfast. The espresso was lovely and the egg sandwich was pretty solid. Plenty of seating and everything was clean. Definitely recommended."
