I’ve been in and had several cups of coffee at Intelligentsia in both locations. I used to live around the corner from 9th Street, the original, 9th street and Avenue C. My problem with the shop was always what you mentioned: attitude. Next trip to NYC, here are some recommendations: Gimme Coffee in Brooklyn, Stumptown in the Ace Hotel, Joes (any location but Grand Central) and my new favorite NYC shop (convenient as it is one block from the Gimme in Brooklyn), Second Stop Cafe. The owner uses Stumptown as well but makes one of the meanest cortados I’ve ever had anywhere. Third Rail, I dig. Grumpy’s has disappointed me on two separate occasions when all I hear is praise about the shop.
