I recently stopped by Cafe Grumpy on my way to Grand Central, and I had such a great experience. The service was super quick and friendly, and I loved that they support local artists. Plus, when you buy a mug, a portion of the proceeds goes to help animals, which is amazing. The lavender oat milk latte was absolutely delicious—I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

Stopped by Cafe Grumpy Grand Central offer a long week at the US Open, in need of some caffeine. The nice man working here offered good recommendations, since I couldn’t decide what I wanted. The coffee was delicious. Service quick yet friendly and upbeat. When I’m back in town for tennis next year, I’ll make this place my usual coffee spot. Thank you!

Decent coffee spot in Grand Central - give it a visit if you’re in the area and like espresso. It’s always a good sign when there is more than one espresso on the menu. The single origin espresso was well extracted and balanced.

Sasha made a cappuccino with a medium blend of Colombian and Ethiopian coffee beans. This was a fine cup of coffee and far superior than the one I had yesterday at Gregory’s Coffee. I sat here savoring each sip slowly. Having coffee outside is a treat for me and Cafe Grumpy always delivers nicely. Good service and sometimes a delectable baked item.

Their 12 oz iced Americano was just ok - not bold enough for my taste. Same for the latte. The ginger chai latte was not good - it was very watery and lacked in flavor. I also got the blueberry scone which was ok but tastes a bit grainy. Another visit - I tried their cheddar chive biscuit which was just ok. The texture was chewy and had a slight kick to it. They get their pastries from Colson patisserie.

Delicious cappuccino!!!! Very clean place. Great selection of coffees and pastries. They have organic teas. Small place but cozy. You can sit and watch people walking in and out of Grand Central terminal. Two entrances. One on lexington Ave with steps. Other just inside terminal entrance, no steps and wide enough for wheel chair.
