Kona Coffee Roasters | Midtown

“Kona coffees shop is a bright, modern styled coffee shop near Grand Central Station and worth a detour to visit. Friendly and helpful baristas make the visit enjoyable. I had the Americano with a Kona shot and a blueberry scone. The Kona profile and flavors come through the americano - I was doubtful, but proven wrong. The blueberry scone is a must try for scone lovers. This version sits neatly between scone and biscuit. The crust has the expected crunch of a well-baked scone; very pleasing. The interior is more liike a biscuit, more layered than crumble; when you pull it apart you will see and feel the difference. It was unexpected, yet provided a more unusual scone e,pwriwn e that sets this pastry apart and makes it worth trying. The crumb is light and moist, with good spring. It sits between melting in your mouth and a chew - another aspect that makes it very good.”

“Delicious coffee and pastries served here! Customer service/interaction was just okay but luckily we enjoyed our orders so that was kinda overlooked. Inside was spacious and even has a second floor! Restrooms are cleaning and needs a passcode as its for customers only. Inside is nicely spaced and overall loved the flow over there. Close location to Grand Central too.”

“My second time giving a try trying, and I think the barista at this location is slightly more skilled. Hawaiian latte I got was creamy. The flavored syrup did do the job but a little bit stealing the taste of coffee. Matcha pound cake was amazing. It was moist, not too dry and not too oily. Matcha flavor stood out in the balanced flavor between sweetness and bitterness.”
