Directions for Seinfeld's "coffee shop"...
Can anyone supply me with the name and address of the coffe shop in NYC that the Seinfeld clan would frequent. Thanks!

Tom's Restaurant is at the corner of Broadway and 112th, up near Columbia U.

The inspiration for 'Monks', as it was known in the series, was real-world Tom's Diner on Broadway @ 112th St. This same place was also the setting for the Suzanne Vega song "Tom's Diner."

If you are on the west side below 110th St. take a #1 or #9 LOCAL UPTOWN and get off at the 110th Street Station. Walk to 112th ST - the restaurant is on the corner of 112th and Broadway

Only the exterior of Tom's was used in the show. The interior (on the show) was a set in L.A. that looks nothing like the real diner's interior in NYC. Just wanted to let you know so you won't be disappointed.
