Where Blue Bottle Coffee appears on New York Dearest

It's on 1 of my list. Each entry below is what I wrote about it there, with my verdict on that list, the fullest first.

Worth it
  • Address20 Hudson Yards #228, New York, NY 10018
  • From my guide, updated September 2026.

Blue Bottle Coffee hails from San Francisco, one of those left coast cities well respected for its mastery of java. While the proud east coaster in me wants to ding t for that, I just can’t. They’ve definitely perfected one of the best coffee shops in Chelsea. Their Chelsea cafe is located in Hudson Yards, a massive mall full of high-end shops and restaurants.

Specializing in pour-overs, Blue Bottle Coffee has mastered all the drinks we’ve come to love. From foamy lattes and airy cappuccinos, to vibrant iced Americanos, everything is exceptional. The atmosphere is airy, minimalist, and clean. While thisn’t a great spot for studying, it’s still a great coffee shop in Chelsea to catch up with a friend.
