"Lovely spot. Excellent coffee and pastries coupled with exemplary service. Staff had lots of smiles and were very helpful in answering questions. Plates and cups were whisked away gracefully as I was done with them. I just wish the pourovers had more affordable options. This one ran $27 and it’s not even the most expensive."

"We actually stumbled upon WatchHouse 5th Ave. completely by chance — it was raining, and we were out for a walk looking for a cozy spot to dry off and warm up. What a wonderful surprise it turned out to be! The atmosphere is modern yet calm, with beautiful design details and a warm, welcoming vibe. It feels like the kind of place you could easily spend hours in — chatting, relaxing, or simply people-watching with a cup of something amazing in hand. The pastries looked irresistible, especially the croissants and pain au chocolat — perfectly flaky and buttery. I had the Miruku Matcha, and it was one of the best matcha lattes I’ve ever had (and I’m a self-proclaimed matcha snob!). The flavor was smooth, balanced, and clearly made with high-quality matcha. The others had coffee and chai — both equally delicious and beautifully presented. The service was friendly and efficient, and the staff clearly took pride in what they do. Everything from the drinks to the atmosphere felt thoughtfully crafted. Such a lovely little gem in the city — we’ll definitely be back, rain or shine. 🌧️💚☕"

"LOVE THE COFFEE!!!!! Perfect blend and the taste note was really standout. Pain au Chocolat was crispy and the chocolate inside is delicious. They have special blend during Christmas in the box for you to purchase. Also love the architecture and interior. The shop was really clean."

"WatchHouse on 5th Ave is such a great spot! The coffee is excellent — rich, smooth, and perfectly made. The bread and pastries are just as good, fresh and flavorful, making it the perfect pairing with their drinks. The atmosphere is modern and welcoming, with a stylish design that makes it a nice place to sit and relax. Whether you’re stopping by for a quick coffee or spending time enjoying a bite, it feels comfortable and enjoyable. Overall, this is a fantastic café experience in the heart of the city. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates great coffee and delicious bread!"

"Such a cool place with delicious matcha (ceremonial grade, comes with a certificate). It might get very busy during rush hours, but their drinks and pastries are completely worth it. Freshly baked and freshly brewed, their goodies are worth the visit! Totally worth checking out if you are in the area."
