Caffe Reggio

Caffe Reggio is a classic Italian-style cafe near New York University and Washington Square Park that serves cappuccino and espresso. The cappuccino has soft foam over a slightly bitter coffee taste, and the espresso is rich on the first sip with a smooth, heavy finish. The space has been around for nearly 100 years, and although there are many seats, the tables are close together and uncomfortable. Staff sometimes do not come to take an order even after a 10-minute wait.
