Finally found a place in New York that serves truly fantastic coffee! Their lattes are spot on, and the kids absolutely loved the Chilla drinks. We also tried the breakfast Pastrinos and they were a massive hit, fresh, delicious, and full of flavour. Great food, great coffee, great vibe. We’ll definitely be back!

First time in New York, walking down the street, the name got me, it’s pretty cute! I wanted coffee and they had so many options! They were so organized inside, everything came out the perfect temperature and DELICIOUS! I also got a funfetti muffin, because it looked Happy to be honest and it was yummy, gave a corn ... muffin vibe but a pinch sweeter! Go check em out! Read More
Hello!
Great café with excellent breakfast sandwiches and really good coffee. The ambiance is warm and inviting, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. I tried both the baguette and the Pastrino, and the Pastrino was my favorite. It’s wrapped in a thick, fluffy flatbread like a tortilla, which makes it unique and very ... filling. I haven’t tried the lunch options yet, but after this experience, I definitely want to. Vanilla Gorilla Coffee is a spot I’ll be coming back to Read More

Great! Small cafe just a short walk from the New Yorker that has vibrant friendly workers, a great clean seating area, and lots of choices of coffee and foods. I got the Breakfast Pastrino as it comes and it was delicious. The sauce has a nice kick to it and the cheese is nice and stretchy. It was out very quickly ... and HOT! Drip coffee was also very good. Service was great. Everyone was very nice and took great care of me. Atmosphere was extremely comfortable. The building is in a great spot just to watch life in the city go about. Didn't feel like I was in a rush to leave at all. Overall A. Will be back! Read More

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
