Hands down 787 is an emerging juggernaut in the Harlem coffee industry. I actually am very excited to be a witness in their growth within the community. To my pleasure this zen and tranquil space transcends any experience you've ever had with there homegrown Puerto Rican blends of coffee from there own farm.
To share with you how special this place is I tell you my story. From the door familiar đ songs playing from the hanging speakers welcomed and ignite my warm my spirit to what amazing customer service lay ahead. My restless body fights to keep the strength from the stress of a long and intense week and as a result my tablet dops out of my hand and onto the floor as my head also plunges downward. If it wasn't for the staff taking notice of my exhaustion I would have likely not been able to pull it together to drink the much needed cold brew, whic h might I add brought me straight back to life. The warm smells of sweet pastries excite me and grow my appetite to practically live here and accommodate my schedule to include 787 in my daily routine.
This classic experience is true to the nature and climate of the market. Thankfully they are in good hands with Diego (the guy calling the shots). If you get a chance it is a must visit just mins away from time square and seconds away from happiness. Thank you Diego for the self care reminder that no matter how hard we are to work it is just as important to take a minute to sit down and smell the beans.
I can definitely see outdoor seating and plenty of activities as the community growa to love you as much as I do . Cheers and much success - Data DC Culture

If youâre ever in need of a caffeine fix that feels more like a warm hug from Puerto Rico, look no further than 787 Coffee. The moment you step in, youâre greeted not just with the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee, but with the heart and soul of the islandâthanks in no small part to the vibrant energy of the owner, Maxi.
Maxi isnât just running a coffee shop; heâs curating an experience. Passionate, welcoming, and deeply connected to his roots, Maxi makes every visitor feel like family. Itâs rare to find a place where the coffee is as memorable as the people serving it.
Now letâs talk about that Dulce de Lecheâpure magic. Creamy, sweet, and perfectly balanced, itâs like caramelâs more sophisticated cousin. Pair it with their fresh chocolate chip cookie, and youâve got yourself a heavenly duo that will have you coming back for more (and dreaming about it in between visits). The cookie is everything a cookie should beâcrispy on the edges, warm and gooey in the center, with just the right amount of chocolate in every bite.
787 Coffee doesnât just serve drinks and snacksâit serves joy. Go for the coffee, stay for the community, and return for the love youâll taste in every sip...
   Read moreThis cute little coffee spot was recommended by a few folks in the neighborhood. I loooove to try local spots in my neighborhood, especially coffee shops. We were warmly welcomed and helped as we perused the menu. We went with the whiskey/vanilla flavored beans for our lattes and got one slice of banana bread and one slice of blueberry.
Coffee: the coffee was really good. It was flavorful and I could taste the notes of cinnamon and vanilla.
Breads: the banana and blueberry breads/slices werenât anything to write home about. I wouldnât say Iâd get them again. They were moist and tasty but not a must have.
Service: the guy working was extremely helpful and very friendly. He helped us choose between the diff bean options and settle on a coffee choice that suited our preferences.
Overall, this spot is super cute filled with natural light, plants, seating options and provides free WiFi. Unfortunately, it was a bit too pricey for me. My order (two small lattes and two slices of bread (banana and blueberry) came up to $34. I also went back one other time and my small coffee cost me $11. Thatâs a bit more than I typically budget for my...
