Hastings Tea & Coffee

The most delicious chai latte I've had. Perfect amount of spice. Perfect temperature- I usually have to wait at least five minutes to take my first sip because it's too hot. Glad to see it busy. They have a great selection of loose tea i can buy to bring home. They need to stay in business! Please go. Update: 8.3.23. It's even more comfy, confident , yummy, and vibrant.

This is such a great small coffee shop. Truly a gem in Ossining! Small space but cozy with a surprising amount of seating (up front and in the back). Perhaps it’s a bit offbeat to the norm (look for all the fun bits of decor!) but I found it charming… Whimsical and artsy. The atmosphere is great and the coffee was wonderful. A great place to meet up with a friend or sit for some work.

My favorite local coffee shop. I would rather go here and support a local business than go across the street to Starbucks any day! My favorites are an iced caramel latte with oat milk (absolutely the best) or an iced matcha with oat milk. The staff is always super friendly and welcoming! Update: as much as I enjoy the coffee from here, it’s a bit ridiculous that their staff refuses to exchange change so that you can feed the meter. If I’m spending over $25 at your shop, the least you can do is give me 4 quarters in exchange for $1.

Having recently moved into White Plains, I’ve been checking out local businesses near my apartment. A few days ago I noticed the Hastings Tea & Coffee cafe on Main Street and couldn’t help but appreciate how happy their customers limbed who were seated at their outside tables enjoying their drinks. I decided that I had to drop by for an almond latte. When I walked into the cafe I was surprised to see that in addition to the impressive coffee, tea and desserts, they also sold bottles of wine snd even have a wine of the month club! While I was there, I watched how dedicated the staff was in helping their other customers and when I asked Jay if he could help me buy a bottle of wine, he suggested I speak to Bill who was more educated on their wines. After spending about twenty minutes learning about their wines, I ended up purchasing a Spanish from Portugal and a red from France. I’m Not a connoisseur if wines but my friends were blown away by my selection and while I had only gone into the cafe for their coffee, I had discovered a great new go to place for wine too!

Very nice little cafe. Friendly personnel and phenomenal espresso. I spoke with the manager Frankie and he said the espresso is from a local business. I’m Italian born and raised and lived in New York City for over 10 years, and can guarantee this is one of the best espresso I’ve had in NYC. Will Be Back!
