The coffee was so fresh and strong. It was one of the more refreshing and tasty ☕️. The Macha ice drink is amazing, just the right balance. We went to the Blue Bottle Coffee at 20 Hudson yard so seating was a little difficult but the part and the capsule next to the yard are a great place to have your coffee and enjoy the views of the area. - merav naor-weinstock

Blue Bottle Coffee Introduce

In a city that runs on caffeine and ambition, the quest for the perfect cup of coffee is a constant pursuit for many New Yorkers. Blue Bottle Coffee, a name synonymous with quality and a meticulous approach to brewing, offers a sanctuary from the urban hustle. The location at Hudson Yards is a prime example of their commitment to a superior coffee experience. It’s a place that transcends the typical coffee chain, offering a vibe that is both "calm" and "trendy," and a menu that is anything but ordinary.

This article is designed to give New Yorkers the inside scoop on what makes Blue Bottle Coffee at Hudson Yards a destination worth visiting. We'll explore the standout features that make it a favorite among locals and tourists alike, from its expertly crafted beverages to its welcoming atmosphere. As one reviewer noted, this is a spot that "ended up being the only café open early during the holiday morning when just about everything else was closed," a testament to its reliability and importance in the neighborhood.

This commitment is reflected in the flavor of their drinks. Customers consistently praise the coffee as being "smooth, balanced, and just the right kind of bold." The "Iced Matcha" is described as "amazing, just the right balance," and the New Orleans-Style Iced Coffee is a fan favorite, known for its "sweet and creamy" taste.

Beyond the drinks, the atmosphere of this specific location is a major draw. Located within the bustling Hudson Yards, it manages to maintain a "calm vibe perfect for zoning out before starting the day." The space, designed with a navy-blue interior and postmodern arches, offers a visually appealing and cozy environment despite the potentially limited seating mentioned by some reviewers. It's the kind of place where you can feel a sense of calm and recharge before "jumping into the city again."

What is worth choosing

For a New Yorker, choosing a coffee shop is more than just about a caffeine fix; it’s about finding a reliable and enjoyable space that fits into their daily rhythm. Blue Bottle Coffee at Hudson Yards is an excellent choice for several key reasons. First and foremost, the quality of the coffee itself is a standout. This isn't just a place that sells coffee; it's a place that is dedicated to the craft of coffee. The attention to detail in their pour overs and the rich, balanced flavor of their espresso-based drinks are what truly set them apart. The rave reviews for their iced lattes, cold brews, and the New Orleans-Style Iced Coffee are a testament to this quality.

Another compelling reason to choose this location is the unique combination of its bustling location and its calm atmosphere. Being inside Hudson Yards, one of the city's newest landmarks, makes it incredibly convenient. Yet, as one reviewer noted, the cafe provides a "calm vibe," a welcome contrast to the crowds outside. It offers a perfect balance—a place to grab a quick, high-quality coffee and a bite before a meeting or a space to sit and work with your laptop.

The staff's customer service is also a huge plus. The friendly and patient demeanor of the baristas, who are willing to guide customers through the menu and even offer samples, elevates the experience from a transaction to a personal interaction. This kind of attention makes a big difference in a city where service can often feel rushed.

Finally, the comprehensive menu offers a wide variety of choices, from traditional drip coffee to unique "Fizz" drinks and a full selection of pastries and food. This means that whether you’re craving a classic Americano or a sweet and creamy Iced Sweet Latte, you'll find a drink that satisfies. The selection of food items, from a simple poundcake to a hearty Breakfast Sandwich, also makes it a viable option for a meal, not just a drink. For anyone in search of a coffee shop that delivers on quality, atmosphere, and service, Blue Bottle Coffee at Hudson Yards is a must-visit.

Together with their growers and customers, Original Beans has preserved and grown millions of trees through their One Bar : One Tree program.

  • RTD*

  • Bold Cold Brew $24.20

    In our minds, Bold is the word we use for richer coffees, particularly those with the notes of baking cocoa and caramel notes we find in Latin American beans. We draw out these flavors with a slightly heavier roast—about as dark as we get. This organic brew is delicious with milk or without.

  • Craft Instant Coffee $13.80

    We start with the highest-quality coffee, blend and roast to extract the espresso profile, then transform it into aromatic crystals with dimension and richness. The crystals dissolve instantly for consistently delicious iced or hot lattes that couldn’t be simpler to brew. Each jar includes 15 servings.

  • Craft Matcha $36.80

    From the renowned matcha region of Uji, Japan, we bring you ceremonial-grade Craft Matcha. Our Kyoto team scoured Japan to find a matcha that embodies our standards for quality and taste. They found it at Rishouen, a teahouse born from five generations of tea knowledge. We choose tender tea leaves from Rishoueun’s first harvest of tencha, or shade-grown matcha plants, and stone-grind them to protect against heat degradation.

  • Blend Beans $27.60

    Comforting and designed for pleasure, our blends combine coffees from different parts of the world to create a harmonious cup. Our blends are freshly roasted and sold as whole beans, not ground, for optimal deliciousness.

  • Single Origin Beans $32.20

    We source coffee from all over the coffee-producing world, and we offer some standouts from distinctive regions and farms as single origins. These beans allow you to taste coffee from a specific time and place and are all about fleeting moments and the magic of surprise.

  • Yogurt $4.60

    On the West Coast, this easy breakfast from Clover layers cream-topped, organic, whole-milk yogurt over a simple, bright strawberry compote. On the East Coast, Norr Organic mixes Icelandic-style yogurt with strawberries and rhubarb. We love that the milk comes from grass-fed cows nearby in Pennsylvania.
