Zaruma Gold Coffee

Zaruma Gold Coffee occupies a small footprint inside DUMBO Market at 66 Front Street and is one of the few cafés in NYC sourcing exclusively from Ecuador. The shop is named after Zaruma — a town in the coastal coffee-growing region of Ecuador — and its program covers all four of the country's distinct growing regions: Coast, Sierra (the Andes), Amazon, and the Galápagos. The single-origin lots showcase a producer geography that is dramatically under-represented in NYC specialty coffee. Beyond the coffee, the menu includes authentic Ecuadorian and Latin American baked goods and treats — humitas, empanadas, sweet breads — that pair naturally with the espresso program. The setting inside DUMBO Market means the space is more counter than café, suited to grab-and-go rather than long working sessions. For coffee drinkers who want to taste a country that most NYC cafés overlook entirely, Zaruma Gold is one of the most distinctive picks in the neighborhood.
