Stumptown Coffee.

Worth it, says Antonina. The coffee is great, the baristas and friendly and the wifi is fast and reliable.

Where Stumptown 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
  • Address30 W 8th St, New York, NY
  • From my guide, updated September 2026.

Stumptown Coffee has locations is most major cities, but not without reason. Hailing from the Pacific Northwest, the roastery churns out some of the best coffee in the country (as a West Coast transplant, I’ll die on this hill).

There’s three cafes in NYC, but the Greenwich Village location is my recommendation when people ask where to work remotely in New York City. The coffee is great, the baristas and friendly and the wifi is fast and reliable. Most tables are graced by headphone-clad students from nearby NYU, so anyone with a laptop is bound to fit in.

I’ve sent dozens of friends here. Not one has complained.

Worth it, says Antonina. Been? Say if you agree.
