the belgian hot chocolate here has a following for good reason. manon cafe leonidas sits at 120 broadway, deep in the financial district, which means the morning crowd moves fast and the coffee has to keep up. and it does. this isn't a spot where you linger for hours debating single-origin pour-overs, but what it offers, it does with real attention. regulars come back, which in lower manhattan is not something that happens out of loyalty alone. the praline or chocolate-forward drinks draw people who know the leonidas name from belgium, and the combination of that chocolate heritage with specialty coffee is a pairing worth your time. if you're in the area on a weekday morning, the hot chocolate before the rush is where to start.
