A Little Taste Cafe on Postcard

"A Little Taste Cafe is a well hidden coffee spot on the South side of 28th street. It's an unexpected gem mixed into the grungy & busy flower shops that line the bustling block. The interior is one you might call “industrial-chic” and just a bit stuffy, but at least you know your $4 Americano is going to not mess around. A great option if you're in dire need of a quality caffeine." - Anti/Anti

This is my favorite place to get coffee by the office, a short walk down from Penn Station, this little hideaway café is on a street that I identify as a forest-park. I get iced oat lattes all year ‘round because I am me. The barista shakes my coffee concoction in a cocktail shaker unlike most baristas that dump an espresso shot in top of iced oat milk leaving my to put a lid on it and stir it myself causing liquid to drip from the sides. The coffee is delicious, never burnt, and has caffeine which can be missing from some coffees you find in manhattan.

Perfect place to sit with a friend and grab an espresso or two. Delightful atmosphere and surrounded by beautiful plants. Feels like a different world in a great way!

Great atmosphere, great people, great food and coffee. It’s a small paradise inside the city.

Wow. What a fantastic shop. We tried many coffee shops in manhattan and a few in Brooklyn but nothing compared to A Little Taste. The espresso was so creamy and delicious. My boyfriend and I stayed across the street at the Hilton and stopped by everyday at least once (sometimes twice) for the Brazilian espresso they were offering. It was obvious the coffee was fresh and roasted to perfection. The pastries were yummy too. The staff was friendly as well. We were sad to leave back home to Florida.

Not sure when this little place popped up, but I believe it was pretty recently. Since I noticed it I have returned many times (I work in the area). Definitely beats the Starbucks around the corner, and the other good cafes in the area are a little farther south so this is your spot if you are nearby. All of their coffee drinks are great. The space is cool but very small, just a few stools. It kind of serves as an anteroom to a fancy fabric store which it seems to be affiliated with. They have baked goods which really look amazing, but I haven't tried them. Prices are standard for nice coffee shops in the area. The staff has always been very nice. I wish they allowed me to order a larger cup of iced coffee.

Great little cafe with a friendly staff. The BEST oat latte I've ever had; I'm addicted! A wide selection of pastries, including gluten-free and vegan (the gf pistachio-cardamom loaf is amazing! ) There are 3 barstools inside of you want to enjoy your coffee there.

Really great spot and reasonably priced compared to similar NYC artisanal/independent cafes. The chai was well spiced (non-imaginary, actual spices) and there’s a variety of milk options (oat, soy, almond from what I remember). There’s a lot of unique pastries on display and the one I tried (rosemary currant scone) was excellent. Not overly sweet and a good savory flavor. $9 total. Staff are really pleasant too. Keep in mind there’s limited seating (a couple barstool seats across the register).
