### 2/5 — Payment

*2026-03-28, version 4.46*

Payment options are very complicated.

### 2/5 — Payment is annoying

*2025-09-11, version 4.42*

Love Matto’s tasty snacks & coffee, the best for the $ in NYC. And the people that work at my location on Maiden Lane are the best! But the app  won’t let me use Apple or any stores cards and I keep having to re-add my payment method in. Please take Apple or google pay.

### 2/5 — it was taste watery disappointed today

*2025-02-03, version 4.25*

Coffee today not good
Idk what’s going on

### 2/5 — Never Stocked

*2025-01-03*

I keep getting emails for new items but the location near me, on busy 9th Ave in Manhattan no less, never has any of the advertised items. It’s so disappointing and annoying when places send advertisements for stuff they only send to one store.  I’d rather just skip this place altogether and marking these emails as spam.

### 1/5 — scam

*2024-12-23, version 4.23*

wont give me my money back that i never even spent

### 3/5 — app needs improvement for sure

*2024-12-05, version 4.23*

I go to matto at least once a day and i have no complaints about their coffee n etc. only complaint is the app. Its pretty frustrating that the app has a “custom” input for adding to your wallet but can’t be below 10 dollars. There should be any amount allowed.. There should also be a QR code or something that allows you to scan in store to use whatever is left on your matto account as well if you don’t want to reload.

### 1/5 — Horrible “ owner” rude / belligerent and gave us the middle finger !!

*2024-11-23*

The 351 3rd ave store -avoid at all costs .The so called “ owner “ female “ was rude and abusive to my Mrs  Had no patience . Refused to help her add money to her account. Told my wife to get out of store . Witness saw all this and she couldn’t believe how rude she was 
We will not be going to Matto ever again 
Gave us the middle finger and this is an owner of Matto - great mascot for Matto - give everyone the middle finger and tell them to get out !!!!!
I guess they forgot the universal business rule “ The customer is always right !”

### 1/5 — Bad coffee

*2024-11-10, version 4.22*

Espresso drinks all seam to be missing one thing- espresso. They are so weak they taste like mud (and milk or syrup, of course). Pastries look good and baristas are friendly, even if they need training.

### 1/5 — App does not work

*2024-10-20, version 4.21*

It does not keep track of all orders and after earning the free drink, it took it off so I never got it

### 2/5 — Nice business model, not so nice app

*2024-10-17, version 4.21*

App doesn’t remember the previous store location, or suggest the closest store. I have to set this every time I order a coffee.

### 1/5 — Bad design

*2024-09-30, version 4.20*

The coffee is good, so are the staff but this app is bad.  It places orders without any confirmation and also sends orders to the incorrect locations. 

Suggestion, make an extra prompt to confirm location and exact order before letting it go through.

### 1/5 — Deceptive advertising

*2026-06-10*

Signs draw you into shop by inexpensive coffee offer is ordered on app. After downloading app and adding item to cart, when you try to pay the app prompts you to add a minimum $10 gift card to your account on the app. There is no way to bypass. They are trying to trick you into buying a $10 gift card you didn’t want. I abandoned the app and paid the old fashioned way for my coffee (80 cents more than the advertised “discount” price). While the coffee was good, the deceptive advertising left a bad taste in my mouth so will avoid this chain in the future.

### 1/5 — Bad Atritude

*2026-05-06*

There’s a particular tall white male at the 3495 Broadway location who on my first visit, returned silence to my good morning and then returned silence to my Thank you. Luckily my experience was great the next time with an African American woman. On another visit I requested that the egg for my sandwich be warmed well (as it had not been on a previous visit) and I again received silence, rolled eyes and a turned back from the same man. I had to cancel my order because I think it’s safe to say we need to be able to trust anyone preparing food for us.

### 1/5 — Refill? What a scam practice

*2026-04-03*

This practice is just a scam. Eventually you won’t have enough funds or have too little buy anything and that money will belong to them. It adds up from every single user. Ended up not using their stupid scam feature and probably won’t ever go to their shop again. $3 for everything but make sure to read their fine prints and scam practices.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2026-03-05, version 4.46*

You have to re- input everything a dozen timeson a "reorder"! You also have to override the stupid suggested location 13 times! Developer should download Starbucks and Dunkin' apps and learn how a barista app should work!

### 1/5 — Stinks

*2026-01-28, version 4.45*

Poor service, NO customer service

### 1/5 — Overly complicated for basic ordering

*2025-12-03, version 4.45*

Hard to place a basic reorder. And instead of offering a partial payment just force a reload of the wallet.

This not great

### 1/5 — SCAM

*2025-07-23, version 4.36*

Do not add money to this app. It is a scam. They will take your money and they won’t refund it. They charged me in error and even though I was told it would be refunded in 2-3 days, it has now been over a month. I have been in multiple times and they keep telling me it will be refunded in 2-3 days. SCAM.

### 1/5 — Paywall Restrictions

*2025-05-29, version 4.30*

This app is pretty stupid, it doesn't let you order anything unless you load a digit card with a minimum of 10 dollars.

### 1/5 — Can’t use

*2025-05-27, version 4.29*

Keeps declining my obviously correct cc info

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2025-02-14, version 4.25*

I have had too much money taken off my card from the app

### 5/5 — Fantastic app upgrade

*2026-07-01*

I was a longtime user of the previous version of this app, and this upgrade fixed all the little things that annoyed me about it and greatly improved usability in lots of little ways. It’s obvious that the people who made it paid close attention to how regular Matto customers use the app. Speaking both as a frequent customer of Matto and as a user interface designer myself: beautiful work!

### 5/5 — Best Coffee

*2026-02-11, version 4.46*

Fast, friendly, affordable and convenient with many coffee options.

*2025-12-23, version 4.45*

Great app - even better place - everything I have had there is wonderful- shout out to the cinnamon scone - best outside of the UK

### 5/5 — Coffee

*2025-07-21, version 4.36*

The coffee is delicious and the service excellent. The people who work there are do nice and never rude.

### 5/5 — Easiest way to order my morning coffee.

*2025-04-21*

Not only are Matto’s food and drinks delicious and high quality, but the prices are also best I’ve seen. The app is so efficient and makes me morning routine seamless.

### 5/5 — Love Matto!

*2024-11-19, version 4.22*

$3 drinks are unbeatable!

### 5/5 — I love Matto

I like this place I like the staff the quality and prices

### 5/5 — great fast service, and best Cortado in town, especially for the price

*2023-11-28, version 4.10*

Visit 9th ave btw 45th and 46th, and have Misha make you the best drink you could possible ask for. This store is my new coffee go-to. Love me some Matto ◡̈
