Irving Farm Coffee

Irving Farm Coffee's Upper West Side shop has wood, black and white photos and a back room with a skylight. There are a few tables outside. There's no wifi but plenty of outlets. Tables are scarce on weekend afternoons.

The medium-dark drip is the everyday cup. Try a cortado or lavender latte. Breakfast includes eggs on cheddar biscuits, and the banana bread is a favorite. Beans are usually one to two weeks off roast. Every fourth bag is half off. They ship, with subscriptions.
