Whistle & Fizz

Tucked into Greene Street, this compact, low-lit space serves espresso that holds its own without additions, though the draw for many is the wide array of specialty syrups and seasonal flavors like the pistachio orange halva latte. Because of the location, lines peak during NYU class changes and the indoor seating is highly limited. When the weather allows, grabbing a cup to drink in the nearby park is a common alternative.
