How this score works
The score estimates how strongly this place's review record matches known manipulation patterns, from 0 (no signs) to 100. Verdicts: Clean below 40, Suspicious from 40, Likely Manipulated from 70; Review Drive when the flags are mostly staff asking customers for named reviews. It rises with the share of reviews flagged and how suspicious each one is.
- Burst
- — an abnormal spike of five-star reviews in a single day compared to the place's usual pace.
- Low activity account
- — the reviewer has almost no other reviews, photos, or Local Guide history; throwaway accounts look like this.
- Duplicate text
- — the wording is nearly identical to another review of the same place.

Worst mocha I've ever had in my life. Tastes like a water down Americano. And $6.5 on park Ave no less. not worthy of ting factory status

coffee and matcha are pretty low quality. Food is ok, but nothing special.
Good for
- Quick, fresh breakfast or brunch near Grand Central
- Outdoor terrace seating in pleasant weather
- French-style pastries, croissants, and tartines
Avoid if
- You require a quiet, low-noise environment for conversation
- You are sensitive to potentially inconsistent or rushed service
- You are looking for specialty coffee drinks on a strict budget
