I would not recommend the "Coffee Lab: A Journey of the Senses" experience. It was expensive to essentially have 1 cup of coffee with someone who was not knowledgeable, did not know the proper brewing technique, it was not interactive, and felt like a tourist trap. I was expecting way more and unfortunately this was the worst part of my trip to NYC.

It was absolutely amazing and milia was the best. We had a ton of fun. I have years of espresso martini making bartending experience and my partner has no experience, yet we both got a ton out of the class. They were so kind and we felt treated like royalty, 10/10 service

This experience was really fun. We had a private session. Clay was lovely! We made one espresso martini and then learned about different variations/got to sample. The food pairings were yummy. Overall, it was a little overpriced for how much you actually get to do for making the drinks but we had a lovely time. They let us stay and hang out even after our class was over.

Bobby was the Best. So knowledgeable so engaging so fun. Just because of him I would bring a crowd. The drinks were fabulous and so was the cinnamon bun and olive bread. So sociable so adorable. Plus I had my service dog with me

We did this experience as a family of four. Our teenage girls (and us!) loved it. It was great to learn so much about coffee, Starbucks and to not only taste different kinds but also have a chance to experiment! Thanks so much to Betty and Lauren who made it lots of fun too!
