I was in search of nice place to sit and relax after shopping in SOHO. I walked by Café Lyria and decided to give it a try. The ambiance inside is fantastic, modern, trendy, and perfect for a relaxed cafe vibe. The place was buzzing with people reading, working, and hanging with friends. Not sure what to order, I took the barista's recommendation and tried their house special latte. It was an excellent choice. The blend was smooth and flavorful, topped with frothy foam. I'll be back for that latte next time I'm in the area.

This is one of my favourite coffee shops in New York City. The blonde girl on the register was super sweet and the coffee was excellent. It's nice to see a group of employees who are close friends, the vibe is infectious. The interior is stunning and I love to drink my coffee on the outside benches. They have dope merch too.

small coffee shop folded into the lobby of a NoHo building on a quiet stretch of Crosby Street. if it wasn't for tables and seats often scattered in front of Cafe Lyria, you'd likely walk by this spot and not notice it. the coffee shop offers a variety of coffee & tea centric drinks as well as a small menu of items. the interior is a chill eclectic vibe made of a variety of seating options from a large couch, tables and chairs. the calming decor is a result of plants, warm subtle tones, and the space itself feeling cozy but not cramped. there's stacks of books and games placed throughout the coffee shop and a small tv playing a variety of anime. stopped by a few times and each time ordered an Americano coffee. the coffee was flavorful without being overly bitter and had that smooth hot caffeine kick that only good coffee delivers. never managed to take a seat at Cafe Lyria mostly because i had places to be. will say it is quite busy during the day as prime seats are mostly taken up by people who are laptop-ing and working (pretending to remote work!). the crowd, here, is a mix of students, remote workers, and mid social media scenesters. while not the greatest mix of NYers...the vibe remains chill. the ladies behind the counter are friendly and laidback and seem to enjoy the life of dealing caffeine to the chronically tired people slightly north of Houston Street. worth a stop if you're in the neighborhood, but not sure i would head here if it weren't convenient to things I need to get done in NoHo.

Small coffee shop but the interior and vibes are fantastic. Very green and eclectic with a mini tv playing nostalgic shows like Pokémon and dragon ball z. The atmosphere really adds to how much I like this place. I got their signature Lyria drink which is an iced drink with espresso mixed with Greek honey and oat milk. It was really really good, I love honey in my espresso and they did it really really well here! I have read a lot of reviews about it being extremely busy but that was not my experience. I walked in around 8:10 and ordered my coffee and had tons of options of where I wanted to sit and enjoy my book.

beautiful name, beautiful ambiance, great service and good coffee ! I came here as a referral from one of my friends who is a regular and this coffee was delicious. The espresso was a bit burnt but not bad! I got a vanilla oat milk latte, I'd be back.

You can't deny how beautiful the inside is! Plenty of seats to admire the room, catch up with a friend, or work. I ordered their popular Cafe Lyria latte. I'm glad I gave it a try but I'm afraid it's not up my alley :/ Something about coffee and honey... doesn't always sit right with me. However, I'd love to give their other drinks a try!
