Editorial Review for Zibetto Espresso Bar – by Erin Behan
In Short
The sparkling all-white space has a thin marble-topped bar just waiting for dainty cups of espresso, maccchiato and cappuccino. There's no sitting, but there's just enough room to stand, drink and nibble on something sweet before jetting off to the nearby Central Park or--if you're unlucky--back to work. Owner Anastasio Nougos and his staff hand-pull each shot (made with Danesi beans) with loving care. Panino, pastries and gelato are also on the menu.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoThere's no drip coffee to be had, but the barista will make you an Americano (espresso and hot water) for a similar experience.
The ExtrasAsk for an affogato: The combination of a scoop of gelato and a shot of espresso isn't on the menu, but they'll serve one up anyway.

Bored, disinterested Baristas grudgingly pull mediocre shots of espresso. They believe that just because they are Italian they are cool and know it all. Fortunately Knave, around the corner, provides an amazing alternative to what was the only coffee place in the neighborhood.
Pros: Location
Cons: Miserable Coffee and Attitude

I drink double expresso every day and this is the best I've ever had. It's worth walking in the cold for 7 blocks in my 3-inch manolos even when there're 10 other coffee shops on the way. A truly satisfying experience.
