New Latte Tour: Let's Go To Williamsburg

Which borough -- and neighborhood -- has the best espresso-based drinks in New York City? I think Williamsburg has a good argument in its favor, so let's head out to Brooklyn to gather some evidence.

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 almost 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.

We'll start at PPL, and then we'll go to The West Coffeehouse & Bar, and then Partners. There will be about 30 minutes of walking in total -- we can enjoy the summer sun and you can get to chat with your fellow coffee hunters.

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.

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!
