Viand Café (Upper East Side)

About This Location

Viand Café, a classic Upper East Side diner on Madison Avenue, appeared in Gossip Girl as a casual neighborhood eatery where characters would grab coffee and have quick meetings. Unlike the show's more glamorous dining locations, Viand represented the everyday side of Upper East Side life — even Manhattan's elite need a regular coffee shop.
