From first-time visitors to daily regulars, our guests share why Vanilla Gorilla Cafe is their favorite New York coffee spot.
Walking in it was a warm welcoming atmosphere. You had a lovely gentleman at the counter greeting you in song 🎵 such a fantastic attitude you could just tell he wanted to be there. My boyfriend and I ordered the breakfast pastrino and please let me tell you DO NOT SKIP OUT ON THIS! Such a flaky, buttery, savory, ... slightly sweet wrap 😋 I got the pumpkin spice latte, it wasn't like any other pumpkin spice I've tried not too sweet definitely for coffee lovers! My boyfriend got the Caramel Gorilla Chilla and it was so good I was sipping off his 🤭 Such amazing service, nice welcoming calm atmosphere definitely wish we could come back but we live in NH 🥲 Read More
Cool atmosphere for an early coffee and breakfast before the day begins. Awesome sandwiches that I asked to make without the meats and super fresh cheese. Loved it.
This place easily reminds you how incredible coffee can be... they use a strada machine and their beans are fantastic. Zero acidity, zero bitterness, just pure rich, decadent coffee. This is my new top 3 in NYC. The employees were always smiling and happy to help every single day I went. I wish we had one of these in ... Palm Desert or at least somewhere in SoCal. Read More
vanilla gorilla cafe is a cafe that has a few locations in midtown! I visited the one on 44th street. This is a great space to get your work done while eating some delicious pastries, sandwiches and coffees! What I ordered: 🍞Smoked Salmon Sandwich: I love smoked salmon so much and this was some good quality smoked ... salmon. There was also cucumber and cream cheese in the sandwich. I'm very glad that there there wasn't too much cream cheese. The bread was well toasted, and overall I loved this sandwich. 🥐Croissant: It was so fluffy! This croissant had a hint of sweetness and was perfect! ☕️Gorilla Caramel Chilla: YUMMY! I don't usually drink coffee so I opted for a frappacino. It wasn't too sweet which is great. I feel like frappucinos are sometimes too sweet but this one was the right amount. Read More
Love the coffee here, usually get lattes or matcha. The environment is very nice, lots of seating, have never seen every seat taken but I usually go on weekdays late afternoon. Service is friendly and quick even when there is only one server.
Really good coffee! The lattes and the Gorilla Chilla were especially delicious. The service was quick and there is plenty of seating in the establishment. There are food options here as well but we only tried the coffees. Can’t wait to return!
The staff's attention to detail matches the kitchen's precision. Every dish was notably delicious. The team combines speed with sincere friendliness. The place succeeds with its comfort, cleanliness, and looks. I'm truly fond of this spot.
Conveniently located in NYC, we’re your go-to spot for coffee and Pastrinos.
