Earlier in February, Butterfruit Labs developed a map of where to find the best New York coffee, as based on the city's subway maps. The original Manhattan map was hugely popular and due to an overwhelming number of requests, the developers have now expanded the map to include Brooklyn and Queens.
In creating this add-on, Butterfruit Labs noted that some popular points on the subway line were teeming with coffee shops, but other stops like Woodside and Corona were lacking some good coffee spots. The new edition of the New York City Coffee map doesn't include all of the subway stops at Brooklyn and Queens, but Butterfruit Labs has certainly included enough options to help adventurous coffee drinkers check out some new spots to get their java fix.
