What I wrote thereFold it away
I wish I had known about Black Press Coffee sooner, it’s two blocks from my apartment and the constant line of happy locals makes it clear this beloved gem is a neighborhood staple. The Upper West Side cafe bills itself as a specialty coffee shop on a mission to deliver exceptional coffee with a side of great customer service. Thankfully they deliver.
If you’re curious about the cafe’s name, it’s derived from the Black Press, a group of publications that shared valuable information with underrepresented communities who were kept in the dark during important political events.
