Seven Grams Coffee.

Worth it, says Antonina. It’s some of the smoothest coffee in Chelsea and the flavor really packs a punch.

  • From my guide, updated September 2026.

If the name of this Chelsea cafe looks familiar to you, it’s probably because you’ve seen it come up on every list of the best cookies in New York City. Popular for their chocolate chip cookie (which practically melt in your mouth), Seven Grams also happens to be one of the best coffee shops in Chelsea.

This Chelsea coffee shop is named Seven Grams because they believe it takes exactly 7 grams of premium coffee grounds to make. The perfect shot of espresso. The coffee is unfussy and does not need to be over complicated with different milks or flavorings. The premium espresso speaks for itself. It’s some of the smoothest coffee in Chelsea and the flavor really packs a punch.
