Caffetteria SoHo (CLOSED)

Two former Blue Bottle Coffee employees have swapped coasts to open this café, using beans from that company's Brooklyn roastery. Iced coffees will be served New Orleans– (cold-brewed with chicory) and Kyoto–style, the latter dispensed from two three-foot-tall slow-drip units. Joe geeks, take note: Shots spew forth from the United States’ first mechanical-paddle GB5 La Marzocco machine, which puts more control into the hands of the barista.
