Where's a quiet coffee place in Manhattan south of 72nd St.? I'm looking for a quiet place in Manhattan anywhere south of 72nd St. to have coffee with someone. The quieter, the better. Every coffee shop I've been to is crowded and plays music that's slightly too loud.

[The Prelude Cafe](http://preludecafeandbar.com) in the front of Alice Tully Hall is actually pretty quiet even when it's full. The ceilings are really high there and the acoustics dissipate the sound. They don't play music.
