Molecule Water Store

You can’t beat Molecule! The staff is friendly and helpful. I ended up purchasing the APRO5500. The antioxidant mineral cartridge is the best! You can really taste the difference and honestly I feel better and healthier drinking this water. An added bonus is not having to buy bottled water anymore! (Which also is good for the environment)

Great concept, knowledgeable staff and fantastic products! Living in a city where the water either smells like a sewer or the over-​saturation of chlorine in an attempt to «clean» it, I really appreciate drinking pure, clean, alkaline water. There really is a difference that you can taste! (Great for your health and quenching your thirst!) SO happy we came across this gem. Purchased the XL 7000… and it was well worth the price!
I am a skeptic for the most part so I research everything. You have no idea how many chemicals, metals and pathogens are found in even the «best drinking water» in any municipality.
As for the naysayers… don’t be so ignorant or apathetic… your health, your family and the planet can’t afford it.

Molecule is the best! I moved here from a small mountain town where pure water was always accessible; upon moving to NYC, I was delighted to find this gem in the heart of East Village. I love the conscious movement toward pure, healthy living. In addition to offering a great monthly membership, I enjoy their quality service and wonderful products. Much love to Molecule!

The Heath benefits of the alkaline water are wonderful but the body odor of the guy and the lack of health knowledge he has repels me.

These guys rule! Manny was so informative and very very helpful! What a great company and fantastic initiative that these guys are involved in. From this Chiropractor to the BEST OF THE BEST water guys, 5 stars!!!

Friendly and warm environment every time I go in. The quality of water is the best and it’s alkaline. Why is everyone not getting there water from here!!!

I am hyper sensitive and can actually smell chlorine and chemicals in my tap water. I have a problem with floride as well. Also, I know how awful bottled water is for the environment & the plastic bleeding into the water is very harmful to the body, so this is perfect for me. Staff are nice, knowledgeable and accommodating.
Thanks y’all!

This water tastes great and makes you feel good too. Check out the photos on their website of all the gunk they filter out and you will never want to drink tap water again. I recommend getting it straight up, it tastes best!

Very knowledgable staff and you don’t feel bad paying more for water.

A balanced alkaline and I’m feeling an extra hop in my step, whoooo! (@Molecule Water Café) on #Yelp

I think I’ve been dehydrated since I left New York and my proximity to the Molecule Water Café.
Tap water, even in New York, is filled with trace contaminants from the pipes and often tastes funny and has an unreliable ph. Bottled water is terrible for the environment, expensive, and I’m always running out.
What a great idea to be able to get high quality water for a reasonable price in your own bottle (or purchase a bottle to reuse). The vitamin add-​ons and alkaline and electrolyte options are an extra bonus.
Please open a store in Hollywood, we need you!

I know a lot of people will label this place as ridiculous, but I think it’s brilliant.
What could be bad about a shop that makes it easier to drink more water? And what could be bad about drinking more water? Nothing, obviously.
For $ 1 they’ll fill your bottle with a product that both tastes better than what you get at the corner store and is better for the environment (because you supply your own bottle).
The water here really is delicious, by the way. There’s no question that you can taste the difference. Because it tastes so good, my advice is to skip the additives and just get the water straight up.

like it or not, most folks in the city use a brita, buy bottled or get it delivered from poland spring.
i hate paying extra for any of that. I am a minimalist. But this water from Molecule is really worth it. Tastes wonderful. I dont get the additives and it still tastes great. the 2gallon container fits perfectly in my fridge and is much easier to pour from than a brita. Drinking delicious water just got easier for me

I’ve been going to Molecule for a couple of weeks and it’s great. The staff is friendly and very passionate about their product. Yes, they sell water — incredibly delicious water. The purest water I’ve ever had. I typically have my steel water bottle with me and they fill it up for $ 1.00. It’s actually cheaper and way tastier than anything you’ll get at a bodega. Not to mention that bottled water is one of the worse things for the environment. If you add up the carbon footprint of transportation from source (often across the planet) to store AND all the packaging — it far more detrimental than the plastic bags.
To everyone complaining about «buying tap water». First off, you’re not — it’s nothing like what comes out of your tap. Second, you sound like my grandma from 1999 wondering why anyone would spend $ 5.00 on coffee. If it doesn’t seem like a good use of money to you — don’t go. There’s no reason to bash these guys on the internet for doing something they truly believe will help people and the environment alike.

Look, I’ve got nothing against water. In fact, I love water. 70% of my body is made up of the stuff and without it I would quite literally die.
But I wouldn’t be surprised if a «water café» in the East Village gets an eye roll from even the thirstiest of hipsters roaming the ‘hood. Personally, most bottled water tastes alright to me and my Brita filter does a fine job of sorting out the kooky off-​tastes from the ancient pipes in my building. Throw in some vitamins? Okay, I guess that’s cool. But what else do they serve… water biscuits? Splashy time in a mini-​pool? Newp.
Only New Yorkers could find a way to pay for something that they already get for free.

This is a ridiculous premise — ultra-​filtered water, then add things back to it? Ugh. You don’t add «pH» either — pH is a indicator, not something you add/​remove.
NYC tap-​water tastes fine/​great, and it also contains things that are good for you. Other locations around the country and world do not have such great natural water, but the city is lucky in this.
How does water taste «round»? Or «velvety»?

New York’s first water only café!
After passing NYC tap water through a $ 25 000 filtration system, the water you get is pure, velvety and ’round’ tasting. If you bring your own bottle it’s only $ 1. If you want to get the cute glass bottle it will be $ 2.50.
There are different vitamins shots you can add if you like to an additional charge.
