Charles Davis Review of Laughing Man Coffee

I randomly stumbled on the place while I was scootering to the WTC path train. Was feeling tired and decided I needed a coffee, which is weird for me as I don't drink coffee since it makes me sick to my stomach and jittery.
Much to my surprise the ice coffee I got was really really good (which is saying a lot for me as i don't like coffee!). Don't know how they did but it also didn't make me feel sick or jittery. Just very smooth and nutty. An iced coffee and a biscotti was like $5.50 I think, which I don't believe is an unreasonable price in NYC (but I may wrong... again, I don't ever really drink coffee). I've made it a habit to stop by once a week or so to get an iced coffee because it really was that good (again, huge thing for me as I don't like coffee).
The place isn't really a sit down place due to the size, but they do have a couple chairs out front and a dog water bowl if you have a pet with you.
The reason I'm not giving a 5 star is because they don't have a menu, which kind of throws me. When I went in and asked for one, the guy behind the counter told me that they didn't have one and that I just tell him what I want and he gets it for me. While I appreciate the dedication to customer service, its difficult for me to know what to ask for in the first place without actually knowing what my options are. I'm pretty sure they have more there than just one flavor of coffee (or even more than just iced coffee) however i have no idea as there is no menu.
