"My friend in Paris told me about this place, and we went during its soft launch. Firstly - whatever is in that peanut butter milk is phenomenal. I got the ice coffee with the jam and it was like a pb&j coffee dream. Drinks were so good. They also had a little fluffy pb&j cake (not the cookie) and this was a super moist delicious bite. Again - another pb&j dream. Only downside was this place - for just having opened - was packed. We needed to get a buzzer to wait for our coffee. There was no seating, but honestly with everyone standing around it would’ve been too loud to enjoy! However definitely need to come back to try more drinks. Saw some beautiful purple ones being made and even with a soft launch menu they had so many options. Probably the best first sip I’ve had in a while."

"day one, and seeing it grow from Brussels to Paris and now New York genuinely makes me so happy. It’s not just a coffee shop — it’s a full-on nut butter dream. Everything here feels thoughtful and honest: homemade nut butters made with pure ingredients, no weird additives, no shortcuts, just really good quality you can taste straight away. Their drinks are next-level in the best way possible - think coffee and matcha taken up a notch with peanut butter, and other creative twists that somehow work perfectly (like their homemade peanut butter milk!! - divine). It sounds wild, but it’s so comforting, indulgent, and addictive. Whether you’re popping in for a coffee, stocking up on nut butters, or trying one of their signature drinks, this place never disappoints. If this wasn’t enough, they also sell their insane nut butters - a must try! 10/10, the example of spot that keeps getting better with every location."

"((4.5 stars)) enjoy nuts in your latte? pause--not as crazy as you think though lol. Buddy Buddy is a laidback modern friendly coffee bar that's just opened a location on the Bowery, recently. it is still in SOFT OPENING mode as they are working out their NYC coffee program, menu, and workflow. Buddy Buddy has other locations in Paris and Brussels. Buddy Buddy is committed to the quality coffees and organic nut butters and it shows in their coffee + nuts butter signature drinks. have been here a number of times and enjoyed several unique drinks. 1st visit: tried the "Le Buddy" (organic peanut butter latte w/ espresso). ordered it "hot" (but you can order drinks iced as well) --the drink was a tasty combination of coffee and peanut butter mixed together. the peanut butter comes through smoothly mixed in the steamed milk and complements the espresso of coffee. there's no additional sugar added to the drinks to sweeten them (you can add more sweetness that via simple syrup in the drink pickup area) but the "Le Buddy" was mildly sweet, naturally, peanut buttery smoothness, and had a coffee caffeine kick, too. 2nd visit: ordered a “Iced Le Buddy” and swapped the peanut butter to an almond butter. basically a almond butter latte + espresso. the drink tasted like almond's nuttiness and slight sweetness + coffee of the iced latte, but also a little savory because almonds are savory when roasted. this drink tastes more coffee forward than the peanut butter version. 3rd visit: ordered the Praline Mocha which is made with hazelnut butter, dark chocolate, vanilla and espresso. this is a rich drink where the hazelnut butter comes through nicely along with the dark chocolate and notes of vanilla and coffee. the drink feels dessert-y without the sugar. 4th visit: ordered a normal Americano coffee (no nuts!) and it was a good Americano made with a Brazilian coffee bean--smooth, chocolatey notes, and a tiny bit of fruit tartness. the nut butters aren't just purchasable in the coffee drinks but also are purchasable by the jar. the coffee used in the drinks is also purchasable in bags of coffee beans. there are snackable items to buy like "nut butter cheeks." the vibe is low-key energetic and modern with a good amount of seating in the front area where the coffee bar is and is for conversation and the smaller area in the back is an an area designated for laptop and tablet use. the staff from the counter people to the baristas are super friendly and can answer a variety of questions about the drinks or if you have allergen concerns. Buddy Buddy is definitely a unique fun addition to the coffee landscape in NYC and provides a welcome place to have a conversation and enjoy some "nutty" drinks. while it's still in soft-opening mode, it's off to a great start...look forward to seeing what the final experience will be like!"

"This is a totally new coffee experience for me. Nut butter in my latte already sounds amazing. When I tried it, I was blown away. I got the Le Buddy, which is peanut butter with espresso. It tastes very nutty, creamy, and so delish! Coffee is not that strong tbh but overall it is a good latte variation. The place has 2 seating spaces: one in the front (without laptop) and another rear space for laptop people. Wifi and restroom available. The place itself is huge. They also have nut butter and coffee beans available. Love it!"

"I’ve been to Buddy Buddy in Paris, so I had to test it in New York on my recent trip ! Just as good as I remember. We got the hot le buddy - and the latte art here is always stunning ! Went a second time and got a flat white and seasonal batch brew. Wow! Don’t sleep on their specialty coffee either. The batch especially, it was better than most pour overs I’ve tried in the city! This location is more spacious, but still fills up quickly! Run don’t walk"
