If you're out and about for the day in TriBeCa, there are some new places to stop for a sip or a bite. NY1 visited two neighborhood refueling spots listed in the Zagat Gourmet Shopping and Entertaining Guide.

La Colombe
319 Church Street
212-343-1515

Zagat says thanks to this new local outpost, New Yorkers no longer have to take a trip down the turnpike to buy coffee from Philadelphia's legendary artisanal coffee roaster. Surveyors describe the space as minimalist, with just a few seats. They say that leaves all the focus on the "expertly" brewed espresso and coffee, offered along with pastries.

A new addition to Zagat, La Colombe is not yet rated, but the guide says prices are expensive.

Zuckers Bagels and Smoked Fish
146 Chambers Street
212-608-5844

Zagat calls this "friendly" TriBeCa arrival a "welcome addition to a bagel-starved downtown." According to the guide, Zuckers has been "reeling' em in" from day one with "fresh, tasty hand-rolled rounds" and "delish smoked fish and spreads." Some customers say it's "still working out the kinks." But most fans report it "keeps getting better and better."

Out of a possible 30, Zagat gives Zuckers a rating of 22 for quality, 18 for display, and 18 for service. The guide lists prices as moderate.
