Wonderful coffee and pastries in a delightful atmosphere, with room to sit and books for adults and kids. best cinnamon rolls I have ever had!
Have been a repeat customer since Make Believe opened and can’t say enough good things about the coffee, treats, staff, & atmosphere! Tom & Nicole are amazing - very friendly, professional & know what they’re doing! We’re in here all the time - so much so that my 2 year old asks for them every weekend. If you haven’t already, do yourself a favor and try it! Coffee & baked good are so so good!
I think this is the best cafe I’ve ever been to. So glad I moved into the area! The food is incredible, the people who run the shop are wonderfully kind.
Their savory ham bread pudding? To die for.

Make Believe Bakeshop is a true gem and a special, original cafe in the Astoria neighborhood. It is an incredible and underrated bakery with fantastic, delicious baked goods that exceed expectations, featuring both sweet and savory treats. Favorites include the cinnamon roll, any of the bread puddings, the cookies, the chocolate chip cookies, babka, the seasonal apple cider donut muffin, the pumpkin walnut scone, the ham and cheese croissant, the pistachio cake, and an egg sandwich on a brioche bun. The coffee is also fantastic, with great drip coffee, one of the best lattes in the city, flavorful and not-too-sweet lattes, and great cold brew. The drink menu includes seasonal options. The staff are super nice, kind, thoughtful, incredibly welcoming, and community-oriented, creating a warm, relaxed, and safe space with a community feel. They also offer dog treats. It is a welcoming environment with a winning combination of great coffee, great treats, and great people.
