Critical reception

"Coffee" received generally positive reviews from music critics. The song was chosen upon release as Pitchfork Media's "Best New Track". Meaghan Garvey stated that "in an age where our R&B heroes proclaim their lack of emotions a little too loudly, "Coffee" presents intimacy as infinitely bad-ass: "A cold flame, the thrill of no shame."[1] Rolling Stone ranked "Coffee" at number 27 on its year-end list to find the 50 best songs of 2015.[2]
