//The line

Yelp reviewers describe waits at the Mercer Street location as unpredictable, saying "lines and waits get long depending on the time," with service good but the wait sometimes running long during busy stretches (Yelp). One customer reported waiting roughly 30 minutes for three coffees, pointing to bottlenecks at the counter during peak periods (Yelp).

Despite the waits, reviewers note table and seat turnover is high enough that finding a spot isn't usually difficult even when the drink line is slow (Yelp). The location sits directly on NYU's campus, so student foot traffic between classes appears to be a major driver of the busier windows (Yelp).
