Jack's Stir Brew

138 West 10th Street, New York NY 10014-3103, USA • +1 (212) 929 0821 • Map • Website

Jack's Stir Brew pretty much single handedly proved my argument on quality ingredients making the final difference between one well espressed coffee and another. Jack's Stir Brew in the Village with it's grungy, artistic, hippy style and open music evenings, locally tapped maple syrup, home made preserves and super tasty looking muffins and cakes makes for a nice place to spend an afternoon regardless of what you're drinking.

Add to that their various blends of organic, shade grown and recently roasted coffee lovingly espressed and then topped with full fat milk from an extremely happy, grass fed cow and you have a recipe for happiness!

They don't mess around - I had a double ristretto base to my latte and it was a dark, strong and heady brew. I could have finished my enormous cup, but would quite possibly have flown home if I had, so I reluctantly tore myself away. However I am already looking forward to grinding some Jack's Stir Brew beans at home and recreating some of that happy place.
