New Latte Tour: Let's Cross Central Park!
Dahlia, 269 Columbus Avenue, New York, NY, USJoin us for our latest latte tour! This tour will mostly be about the espresso, but also about enjoying a walk through Central Park, during which you can get to know your fellow coffee hunters! That’s because we’ll be starting at Kobrick Coffee (which now shares space with Dahlia Lounge) on the Upper West Side, just a hop, skip and a jump away from Central Park. After Kobrick, we’ll walk across Central Park from west to east, setting our sights on Hutch and Waldo on the Upper East Side. Then we’ll end up at 787, which is right near Hutch and Waldo. So be ready to drink – and to walk through the park.
We'll discuss what separates a great latte from a good or a bad one for this new Coffee Hunters event with frequent guest co-host (and Coffee Hunters attendee) Neil Andrews. We'll talk about how espresso is made, how milk is steamed, and much more.
Neil is a good person to address that question – he’s visited 300 (!) coffee shops in NYC, putting their lattes to the test and posting reviews on his website. Having already co-hosted many latte tours for Coffee Hunters, he’s always excited to be back for more sequels.
By the end of this tour, you’ll have a sense of the many variables that affect the making of a latte, where and why things tend to go off the rails, and what absolutely has to happen for a latte to receive a high score.
Please note that our starting point is Dahlia Lounge, which Kobrick now shares space with. Also note that this latte tour will involve a bit more walking than previous latte tours (about 40 minutes of walking in total/a little under two miles.)
NOTE: The cost of the tour will go entirely to the lattes and barista tips. There are no refunds if you can't make it, but please cancel your RSVP so someone else can get in!

New Latte Tour: Harlem and Heavy Metal
Sojourner Coffee, 137 W 116th St, New York, NY, USJoin us for our latest latte tour, to take place at 3 different cafes in the Harlem area, including Sojourner Coffee, The Monkey Cup, and…wait for it…a heavy metal-inspired café called Superhet Coffee (a superhet is a type of radio receiver).
(For those who wish to stay beyond the tour, you can amp up all the caffeine in your system with pastries at Hungarian Pastry Shop, which is near our final stop. It’s also right across the street from a weird and wild sculpture garden attached to St. John the Divine that you can visit.)
