On the easy-to-overlook triangle formed by W. Broadway, Sixth Ave., and Canal Street, Crave Espresso Bar is the nicest establishment for several Canal Street blocks. Most of the space has a double-high ceiling, except in the back where stairs lead up to a mezzanine with more seating, and there are picture windows facing the street and abundant northern light. The offerings include coffee drinks, bubble tea, baked goods (sweet things and bagels), and pre-made salads and sandwiches. The biggest draw, however, might be the free wi-fi.
