Uptown Roasters Cafe

Coffee shops define neighborhood corners; Uptown Roasters anchors the block at 135 E 110th St in East Harlem. A quick stop for a flat white or cold brew pairs perfectly with the rhythm of 110th—just enough noise, just enough quiet. Behind the counter, the espresso machine hums daily, serving pour-overs to regulars who know the drill. Across the street, the brownstone shadows shift with the seasons, but the aroma of toasted beans lingers on the sidewalk. Stop by on your way uptown and call (646) 918-6600 if the line’s long; the team keeps the brews flowing. East 110th isn’t all subway hubs—it’s sketching a Monday morning map with your cup in hand. Pull the directions you need right here: look left at the light, then right at the stoop.
