Great spot for a warm drink on a cold day. The Tiramisu here was excellent — rich, flavorful, and a perfect pairing with coffee. The location is inside the Empire State Building, so it does get crowded, but the energy adds to the NYC vibe.

They offer free Wi‑Fi, plenty of charging outlets, and a clean, modern seat

Was my first time trying Starbucks and I am a much more tea oriented person. I explained this to the barrister who made me some recommendations and offered to craft me something to try.
