About Press Cafe
Press Cafe is one of the coffee shops listed in Ithaca, New York. The business is registered at 118 W Green St, Ithaca, NY 14850; use this page to check its hours, phone number and Google rating before you make the trip.
Coffee in the United States is served by three kinds of places: national chains with drive-thrus and mobile ordering, independent neighborhood cafes that double as a workspace or a meeting spot, and specialty shops that roast their own beans or buy single-origin lots and brew them by pour-over, espresso or cold brew. Most open between 6 and 7 a.m. on weekdays, slightly later on weekends, and the busiest hour is the commute rush before 9. A drip coffee runs a few dollars, espresso drinks and specialty pours more, and tipping a dollar or a percentage on the card reader is customary but not required. Nearly every cafe offers free Wi-Fi, though some limit laptop seating at peak times or on weekends, and outlets are often the scarce resource.
Hours are published for 7 days a week. On most of those days it is open 8 am–6 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. No phone number is listed for this business, so the Google Maps link on this page is the best route for directions and any contact details Google has on file. More information is available on its website, presscafeithaca.com.
Customers rate it 4.6 out of 5 on Google across 256 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded coffee shops in Ithaca.
Ithaca is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Ithaca follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

There are billions upon billions of cups of coffee that have been brewed throughout human history, yet every so often one reminds us that even the smallest rituals can reveal something profound. Press Café in Ithaca is one of those places. Nestled in a city where waterfalls carve ancient stone and curiosity flows as freely as conversation, this café feels like a quiet observatory for the human spirit. The coffee is balanced with remarkable precision, the pastries possess the kind of simple elegance that needs no embellishment, and every detail—from the welcoming staff to the calm atmosphere—suggests that care is a force as fundamental as gravity. One cannot help but reflect that civilization itself is built upon places like this: small refuges where strangers become neighbors over shared warmth and conversation, where ideas begin their journey into the universe one cup at a time. If we are, as has been said, a way for the cosmos to know itself, then perhaps cafés such as Press are among the places where that knowing begins.

Just remember this simple equation: You + Press Cafe = Happiness. My strawberry matcha was delicious and Steven and Lexi are super cool and kind. I am from Ithaca but live in PA now and make it a point to stop here every time I’m back home! 💚🫶🏼 Plus I got a sweet hat there, too! ✌🏼

Such a cute place. Drinks were fantastic. I got a smoked maple latte and it was amazing. We also got an orange vanilla matcha and couldn’t believe how good it was. We were overall very happy with the drinks and service. Would definitely come back and recommend to a friend!

Press makes consistently wonderful lattes. I typically order oat milk and the texture is lovely--like drinking a cloud. Best place in town for a latte, hot or iced. They also have a cute little study space and outdoor seating.
