An excellent espresso is a cafe’s best business card. On Sunday October 2, 2011, Rebecca from I love Greenpoint, Mike & Charlie from Brooklynauts and I tasted a total of 19 espressos from every cafe* in Greenpoint in order to determine the champion of the Greenpointers 2011 Espresso Tour. The density of outstanding espressos in this neighborhood was impressive and made the tour difficult to judge, but we have a winner!
GREENPOINTERS ESPRESSO TOUR RESULTS!

Fun fact: smokers metabolize caffeine substantially faster than non-smokers.

Not that I’m encouraging smoking, etc etc
Awesome article! I’ve got some cafe visits to make now…
Love this! I’ve never tried Cup but I love Upright, Grumpy and Champion, so I must have good taste.
CUP is definitely off the beaten path and a place you would go if you live nearby. I only know it because Norman is one of my main routes around town…
I never knew about Upright because of this Its in a little nook next to the church. But is soooooooooooo good. How is the coffee uptown baby?
Tried a place and it was good. Not great, but good. Greenpoint had coffee joints in spades.
You done good CUP!
