Marlton Espresso Bar in New York

Absolutely BEST sneakiest, lowkey place in the city. So slept on. Cutest outdoor patio in the back and so many tables open. Brunch was standard and does the trick. Nothing too fancy or uniqueIndoor is cute too and there’s a coffee shop in the front with couches. Great place to go and count on seating!

I popped in to scope out the cozy lobby area to work from. The F&B director, Keith, approached me and asked how he could help. He offered to give me a tour of the area and was incredibly nice and helpful. He kindly let me know that they prioritize those staying at the hotel for seating (which is completely understandable) and that they just ask those working at the hotel to be accommodating, kind to the staff, and order food/drinks.The space itself was intimate & cozy - definitely a place I’d like to spend hours drinking coffee and reading a good book.I didn’t get a chance to try any of their food or drinks but I definitely will be back to do so. Shoutout to Keith for turning me into a customer!

A wonderful winter space with dark wood, couches and a fireplace. One of the few bars in NYC to enjoy good mulled wine. The crowd is decent and cool despite the old school elegant vibe of this place. Not sure why the description says closing at 6, it is definitely open as a lobby bar way after 6pm. It was weird though that they dont serve tea after 6pm.

A secret gem in the city that I would love to remain hidden and relatively less known. The coffee and tea is good and the setting is very relaxed. You can easily spend the entire day hanging out here by the fireplace.

I had a really yummy housemade almond cappuccino here. Who knew lobby cafes were starting to really hone in on their coffee QC?! I loved the decor and vibe here. I didnt feel uncomfortable at all, not being a hotel guest.

Its at most 30°F , snowing, and outright miserable outside. What do you do? How does a cozy as heck, politely quiet as a library, lobby that doubled as a Cafe and bar sound? With a roaring fireplace that you can cozy up to while you drink coffee or tea out-of gorgeous looking cupware and have your pick of a variety of seating arrangements to choose from, and nobody cares if you need to take your shoes off to crouch-sit like a neurodiverse goblin. Oh yeah, its a slice of heaven is what it sounds like. With super friendly staff who both see to your needs and know to leave you alone to just enjoy the vibe while you eat, work on your laptop, listen to that audiobook or read. Whatever. They dont rush you out. Its a bohemian dream. Just be sure to bring a credit card or something they can hold onto as collateral for your tab, though they do take cash. HIGHLY recommend the tomato soup. JUST LOOK AT IT! And its not bland, its properly spiced. Maybe too spicy for some but absolutely perfect for me.

I had a coffee, avocado toast and vegan sausages. Great decor and company. Fun brunch place for spending New years day or any other weekend/holiday

Wonderful place to get away from the noise and bustle of the city. I got a tea and sandwich which was delicious. I saw someone else on here complain about the time it took to get served, that was not my experience. I barely waited five minutes for my order to arrive! Will be coming back very soon.

So great to have a civilized place to have excellent espresso and read the (free!) newspaper in the neighborhood!

A hidden gem in the city to hide out in with a good book on a cold and rainy day.

The coffee and service were a bit underwhelming but the atmosphere of this place is *incredible.* Lots of cozy places to sit, dark wood, and fireplaces. We waited a long time for our check but I would probably come back because the ambiance was so great.

I guess some things are just meant to be. I had just as i checked out, the best chicken sandwich in over 3 years which was served on such a crunchy and rustic panini that i thought i might justin timberlake in my pants. 100% go here.

I cant say enough good things about the Marlton. ...I almost dont want to review it for fear of it becoming overpopulated. What a gem!

Delicious coffee, very quiet, perfect for reading for a while.

Worth a visit. Comfort and style have been preserved since the era of its creation. But the food they served us was burnt and served with great delay.
