Press Cafe

What a laid back & peaceful tiny coffee shop! We stopped in after getting some donuts next door at the Gallery! The Barista was super kind & gave us some fun spots to check out in the city (we are not locals)

The iced coffee was wonderful! Stop here for a fun vibe & great coffee!

My go to coffee and study spot; equally charming on rainy and sunny days. Love the windows and atmosphere, and the vibe is immaculate.

Coffee’s dope, too. But you might have to fight someone to get a seat in the wintertime.

Best espresso (blend only) and iced Matcha latte we found in Ithaca. Good service and beautiful shop. Stylish space, part of a cool development with other unique stores. Worth the price if you are looking for a third-wave café. They feature local roasters.

Press Cafe was a delightful find while on a road trip (its had to find good coffee when traveling) It is so good to meet and chat with hands-on business owners.

Service was friendly and knowledgeable.

Iced latte and cappuccino was fantastic!

We will definitely revisit Press Cafe when in the area again.

Great menu options and breezy chill location. My go-to place whenever I want to take home the best Matcha and/or Chai Latte in town, no doubt! I've stopped drinking coffee for years so never tried their coffee tho. They also offer dairy-free milk like Oatly for an additional price. Gahh now I miss sipping their matcha/chai, friendly staff too!

nice atmosphere, duncan is amazing, cool-looking place with a great latte featuring cinnamon, honey and cayenne pepper. perfect for a cloudy cold day. iced red eye is smokth and perfectly executed

Excellent oat milk cappuccino! WiFi and a decent place to work with quiet music, WiFi, but no outlets. Barista was very friendly. Best matcha latte in town, goes perfectly with a trip across the street to Odyssey books!

Love our neighborhood coffee shop! Such a great location and great drinks. Highly recommend.

Convenient location. Great light. Great service. Great coffee (I appreciate that they serve a local brand).

Very peaceful café with a sleek, modern, but comfortable atmosphere. The coffee is very good, especially the espresso which is some of the best in Ithaca. The staff are very friendly and seem to love what they do. They also carry a nice selection of coffee brewing items and are the only place I know of in town that carry V60 filters. I also enjoy their art displays.

Excellent coffee, great atmosphere, super friendly and knowledgeable barista. Locally owned and operated. A must visit! (Took a few sips before remembering to take a picture, but nice latte art held up!)

One of the best Dirty chai lattes I’ve ever had - loved that it wasn’t too sweet 😊

Very good espresso prepared properly.

Got the matcha latte and it was delicious! Strong flavor and not overly sweet. The barista was very kind.

Very small cafe with limited seating and no outlets. Not ideal for a long study/work session but I like the minimalist vibe.

Great place to grab a quick coffee and sit for a bit

Absolutely delightful Cafe. Excellent hours particularly with most of Ithaca being closed early morning on Sundays. The coffee here was excellent and I would happily come again.

Stoked! As a traveler I find it difficult to locate cafes that pull a complex and beautiful shot of espresso. This place pulls it off with grace.

Their espresso is stellar. I wish their hours were longer.

Totally acceptable coffee--we got coffee here both mornings we were in Ithaca because it was just that good. Single-origin drip and excellent flat white with cool decor and fresh, locally roasted beans for sale are what every coffee shop should be. I'll be back for sure next time I'm in Ithaca.

Excellent espresso coffee. The skim latte I ordered was silky and the temperature was perfect. Would definitely come here again.
