Well-regarded· sentiment 75/100
There is a clear distinction in the community between two different entities named "Birch": a well-known NYC-based coffee chain and an independent specialty roaster/cafe in Inverness, Scotland. The NYC Birch Coffee is frequently mentioned as a staple of the city's coffee scene, with some users noting that their iced lattes are particularly enjoyable. The Scottish Birch is praised for its direct-trade practices, roasting on Skye, and high-quality cortados and pour-overs. Overall, both are viewed as reliable, high-quality options within their respective regions.
