Variety Coffee Roasters' Greenpoint cafe sits on a quiet stretch of Driggs Avenue and serves the same roster of in-house-roasted beans that put the Variety brand on the map: rotating single origins through pour-over, AeroPress, and espresso, plus the dialed-in Variety House Blend that anchors most milk drinks. The community table at this location has become a magnet for remote workers: strong WiFi, reasonably-priced drinks (around $5 for an iced oat latte), and good background music make it one of the better laptop-friendly options in north Brooklyn. Variety was founded by Gavin Compton in 2008 and has grown to nine locations across Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens, all built without major outside investment. Roasting happens at a dedicated facility in East Williamsburg, with green coffee sourced through Red Fox Coffee Merchants, an importer committed to ethical, direct-trade relationships. The Greenpoint shop has been listed on Eater's 'Best Coffee Shops in New York City' and is consistently praised for its consistent quality across drink categories.
