"Coffee: $3.25 Naturally, there's a lot of Seinfeld memorabilia inside this Morningside Heights diner, which dates back to the 1940s, but there's also currency from around the world (courtesy Columbia student regulars), $7 mimosas, and deep red booths that are great for gossiping in. The coffee refills are optimized for crunch-time study sessions, and the specials, like a noodle-filled chicken soup, are worth trying." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, bryan kim, neha talreja, sonal shah
