Good, strong coffee, yummy baked goods, beautiful interior, and some local grocery items.
This is hands down the best coffee shop in NYC. I’ve been going to them for years and am always so satisfied. They have two locations - 105th and Broadway and Amsterdam/125th. Fantastic coffee, great ambiance, class service. Go to them!!
We went to Plowshares Coffee Roasters for brunch and had a wonderful meal. All four of us had the Bird Basket which is a bowl of git’s with salsa and poached egg on top. Very yummy!As a note, you need to order and pay before being seated. The line moves quickly.The staff ids also very nice and courteous.
Very cute decor and aesthetics, but I wasn’t feeling the vibe/service. I don’t remember what I ordered or how I liked it.
Wonderful coffee shop! I did a double-take when I saw that this place existed - I live in the area and didn’t know a Plowshares location would be opening up near me. I went in, got a cappuccino, and had a great experience. The coffee is exceptional (rivaling the quality of other large third wave coffee companies) and the space is surprisingly large. Nice staff too :) Will definitely be coming again!
Came for breakfast, got a bagel with egg and sausage (no cheese). Service was good and food came out quickly once we made it to the front of the long line. But the food was only ok. The eggs were pretty tasteless, and the everything bagel and sausage werent much better. Credit for being relatively inexpensive.
A great, clean, cozy and friendly shop. I picked up some beans to go and the espresso shot they pulled for me was near perfection. Looking forward to my next visit!
We were on our own walking tour of Savannah and when we got hungry for lunch we turned to trip advisor to see what was nearby. Goose feathers was the perfect choice- freshly made sandwiches and a nice seat outside. We had some excellent food in Savannah and this quick lunch stands out as a win for sure! Would most definitely return and want to try breakfast too.
The coffee was absolutely delicious (I had an iced oat milk latte) and the granola bar cookie was great too! Lots of space to work and the atmosphere was pleasant. So happy to have this place in the neighborhood!
Coffee and space are good, customer service is terrible. I wanted to purchase a bag of coffee beans and have them grind it. They were quick to refuse to grind it the way I wanted to have it done which makes them useless as a place to purchase beans. Im not impressed when a place goes out of their way to say no. Double Dutch espresso down the street has coffee that is just as good and they go out of their way to say yes to the customer.
This may have influenced our rating, but . . . we were SO hungry and several restaurants closed at 2pm (until 5pm). We found Plowshares Coffee Roasters and had great sandwiches on various types of marvelous bread. What a find!! :-
A first sign of gentrification on this block. The barista was awesome and helpful and the atmosphere is amazing. Delicious coffee and pastries, with excellent decor. Bathrooms were really clean too
Beautiful coffee shop with tons of light and plants that add to the coziness of the place. The mocha I got was delicious. Great place to work or meet some friends for a kids playdate.
Coffee here is amazing, haven’t tried the pastries since giving up sweets for Lent, but that’s on my to-do list. A large and spacious place to take a laptop and do some work while people watching, which will be taken advantage of by the nearby City College student. Centrally (and strangely) located next to the live kill poultry spot and a small Mexican bodega, it sticks out from the neighborhood surroundings. However, along with Presto Cafe (that just recently opened between Amsterdam and Morningside), this is a welcoming addition to the usual unhealthy and repetitive fast food spots in the neighborhood. Sadly I’m moving, but whenever I’m near I’ll make sure to stop by.
The coffee is horrible, and the customer service needs a lot of work. I was totally disappointed, because the atmosphere and marketing is appealing.
Great atmosphere, couldnt get wifi to work on my laptop and had a truly dreadful Americano. Disappointing because I was excited to find a work spot near my apartment. Maybe the cold brew is better and if the wifi works on your computer Id say give it a go.
Really good cold brew and nice atmosphere
Excellent coffee and great space
Awesome coffee, great atmosphere. Pastries are also good 👍
Very nice and relaxing atmosphere, serving great coffee and goods pastry highly recommended Sababa
Great place. Comfortable and friendly knowledgeable staff. Great place to work remotely. Delicious pastry and awesome coffee.
We came here for a business outing and we were not disappointed at all. Even though we were a large group, we got seated, through the line quickly and more importantly, the food was fresh and delicious.
This place is great. Its quite that make it excellent to work. It has very nice decor including plants for sale. And of course great coffee.
Noce place with food atmosphere. The coffee tase good 👍
They have excellent espressos, very rich and delicious. :)
The coffee quality is superb! Service is always outstanding. Highly recommended.
This is where I live to do my meeting and edit my poems, I wish they have matcha though
You only get three hours worth of wifi-- after entering the code on your receipt + your first, last name and email. not worth it especially when they dont tell you that youll get only three hours.go if you want to support gentrification on the block
Friendly staff. Reasonable prices for the product. They have Bellocq tea which is a game changer for me. Plenty of space to work or relax. Clean bathrooms.
Very friendly staff and comfortable environment. The coffee is great and I had this waffle thing that was amazing :-) thanks!
Delicious coffee, beautiful space, cozy atmosphere, kind service. Absolutely love this place.
Great local coffee shop!
Best latte in the city, coconut vanilla with oat milk is incredible! Excellent customer service too!
This is my favorite coffee shop in the city both for the atmosphere and the coffee.
My hat likes this place almost as much as I do.
AmaZing Aussie style cappuccinos
Fast internet. Lots of space. Great coffee. The only good coffee shop around west 125th!
Cool space. Coffee is good. Staff is friendly.
Excellent coffee, beautiful space filled with plants.
Beautiful setting, more features to come, large space
Beautiful Location, Great Atmosphere
Very good!
Its expensive and the service is rude.
Good muffins and coffee
Simply, the best.
Its good to work in a large space. There are a lot of students studying near Columbia U. I feel like a cafe in Korea. The coffee is okay, but Ive eaten a few kinds of pastries, and Ive been damp.

2022-01-04Best Cappuccino in NYC! 5/5 Stars hands-down; the cafe was beautiful inside, had lots of room and even had a chest board to pass the time! Unfortunately we could not sit indoors, but excited to return!

2021-09-08Did you know you can order 5lb. bags of their beans on their website? If youre local youll get them in a day or two by mail (and for a great price.) Weve been ordering their beans for two years now. We keep them in an Airscape tin and the our coffee still tastes great by the end of the month. Best way to buy beans in the city! Also, love this location, not many coffee shops with this much space here in Manhattan.

2022-03-04Surprised to find this cafe in a such sh*t area. The space itself is bigger than what it looks like from the outside. Plenty of seating. It was relatively at a low volume the entire time I sat here which was nice. Really surprised. The prices were average for a coffee shop. You can tap to pay or pay with cash. If you wind up in this area on a cold day and need a quiet place to sit and do work or just sit, it’s worth the visit.

2019-06-15Beautiful space with great coffee, wifi, and lots of outlets. the best coffeeshop to work in i’ve found in this area. i almost don’t want people to know about it so it can be all mine! the other location of plowshares has equally great coffee and service, but smaller space. i recommend the ham and cheese croissants, and the mocha is the best i’ve ever had!
