When I need to get a boost for a chaotic day, my go to is HiLine Coffee, it’s delicious and convenient. I can have an espresso at home that tastes great with out having to line up and wait at a coffee shop!

Michelin Chef
As a chef who travels the country opening restaurants and cooking for high-profile clients of the most discerning taste, I’m always on the look out for exciting new products of the highest quality. HiLine coffee is a premium coffee product that rivals some of the best coffee I’ve had in Michelin starred restaurants and in cafes of Rome and Paris. It’s a unique, hip, NY-centric alternative to existing coffee systems currently on the market and as a chef that’s always exciting to find.

I had two servings of my HiLine Wall Street espresso this morning when I arrived at my desk – a delicious start to my day. As I pushed forward I moved uptown with a taste of Times Square with before lunch and a late afternoon visit to the United Nations (decaf) for a meeting with a colleague before I headed home. HiLine coffee is a great NYC experience and brand that everyone in our office loves.

Coffee is a great addition to any serious fitness routine. HiLine’s fresh pods are a fantastic source of caffeine and antioxidants.

HiLine Coffee represents all the qualities of a modern premium brand: no non-sense marketing, best quality product, simple design, and fair accessible price point. Definitively a brand you should know if you love coffee.
Jorge Casano
Founder and CEO, Ecole
Like any young business, our employees are rampant coffee addicts, well-adapted to the rote consumption of typical single-brew instant coffee systems; however, these daily doses of caffeine typically lend their popularity to convenience, not quality. The introduction of HiLine’s product line to our office was a big hit – no longer forcing our employees to choose between a cup of coffee that was accessible and a cup that was enjoyable. The local coffee chains, no doubt, will not be as appreciative.

I introduced my team to HiLine Coffee, and after an initial surprise, they liked it! Most of us have been ordering the Times Square Dark variety – a quick consensus, for once!

We have it at our office now, Love it. Definitely a no brainer versus Nespresso.

Living in NYC, my colleagues and I are all fans of “good” coffee. The standard fare served by our cafeteria just will not do, and so we frequently make outings to the local coffee shop. But now we have a fix in-house. We all love the HiLine coffee selections, and find ourselves getting our caffeine fix right down the hall.

We already were using a Nespresso machine and were excited to find out there was a boutique local provider so thought we’d try HiLine Coffee to compare. We found our team really preferred HiLine Coffee to actual Nespresso! Their great service and being New York origin made it a no brainer to switch.

Being a boutique chocolate company with our factory in Brooklyn, we are naturally inclined to be very fussy when it comes to our coffee too. As such, we were surprised and very impressed when we tried HiLine Coffee. This stuff is about as good as you can get without going to a great cafe!
Anthony Cirone
President, Li-Lac
With an energetic, bustling office, coffee is key to our team’s happiness and productivity, as such we had a high end solution in place with a Jura espresso machine. We were therefore quite surprised at how popular having HiLine coffee as an alternative was. People love how it creates such consistently great coffee! Our team particularly enjoys the Brooklyn blend.

The Citi Bike office has truly been enjoying our new Nespresso Machine! We’ve had a lot of real-coffee lovers on our staff, quite thankful to have a flavorful alternative to the regular cup-o-joe we regularly have on hand in our kitchen. We also have some staff who never had tried Espresso before, they tried HiLine, and now they are totally loving it! A warm perfect treat for our office during this chilly time of year too! At first I was slightly apprehensive about plastic waste from the coffee ‘pods’, but the fact that they are 100% recyclable, makes me incredibly happy and feel comfortable with having this type of machine in our Earth friendly office. A welcome addition to our office beverage treats!

Everyone here at Paddle8 loves HiLine’s espresso – especially the Wall Street. Having HiLine’s coffee in the office is delicious, really convenient, and turns our productivity up to 11!
Tim Thorpe

We’re excited to see HiLine Coffee create local products to compete against a massive brand. We love supporting local coffee roasters so we’re glad we can now provide high quality HiLine Coffee through our existing Nespresso machine.

I love the convenience and consistent quality of HiLine Coffee. It’s great that their customer service is just as good as their coffee!

HiLine espresso is really, really wonderful. I’ve developed a few favorites (the Central Park and Liberty dark roasts).

My favorite, and my sister’s favorite, turned out to be the Broadway dark roast espresso. It’s bold and full bodied, with a medium acidity.

I have been reviewing single serve coffee’s for quite sometime and I can honestly say this is one of the best I have ever tasted in this price range.

The floral, cocoa and crisply sweet citrus character of a classic Yirgacheffe at a very good price.
