12 Best Coffee Shops in Forest Hills

“Delightful place to stop for afternoon tea. Discovered their Blue Azul Tea and pistachio cream filled Yemini bread puff! Really delicious and comfortable well lit place to enjoy a bite in the neighborhood. If they expand their menu to include vegan sandwiches they will be perfect!“

“Great vibe - good options and they do my pancakes special for me so ya gotta love that!!!“

“My husband and I were in town for a concert, and this spot was the closest coffee shop to our AirBNB. We are SO glad we stopped in. The coffee and tea tasted amazing. The pastries were also delicious, and the staff was more than happy to warm them up for us. Rachel was our barista during the multiple times we stopped in, and she was so friendly and makes the best coffee. The shop was so cute, decorated for autumn. Definitely recommend!“

“All I can say about this place is. Where have you been all my life? I've not once had a bad cookie. Service is always commendable. And just that smell of freshly baked goods as you walk in. It's a reminder that one has to stop and enjoy the simple pleasures in life.“

“I really like this Forest Hills Metropolitan Ave location. I met the owner Imran once and stayed in touch; he seems friendly and down to earth.

It’s what one would expect with D & D espresso but it’s consistent & convenient. As a health conscious vegetarian, I appreciate that they have non dessert and non meat food items such as avocado, toast, hash browns, bagels.

The staff here are welcoming, friendly, hard working and professional.
Jahn is always professional, attentive, friendly and a sincere human being.

They have tables and which was helpful for my 78 year old mom (when she was alive) who was able to get here with her walker. (one floor, No stairs, a designated mobility needs table, but no bathrooms)

This location is small but has few tables, chairs plus stools along a long table along the window

I really appreciate seeing folks of all ages from students, families to seniors in our neighborhood visit.

D & D staff Poly and Andalip are also professional, friendly and welcoming and it's incredible that this Dunkin’ Donuts is open in this blizzard today (Sunday, Jan 25, 2026)!

I just picked up espresso and bagels when other stores are closed. Let’s acknowledge how hard this staff works, staying open and working happily even during storms and many holidays. Remember to tip them!

Thank you so much Dunkin’ on Metropolitan Ave Forest Hills, Queens! A++ 5/5 stars!

“I was walking by and figured I'd try something sweet and I'm glad I did. I bought a banana walnut muffin and a blueberry and cheese croissant. The croissant was amazing. Its better than most bakeries. Can't wait to go back to try the coffee. Its very clean inside but the storefront is very generic. I dont care except that it didnt draw me in. I just went in on a whim. 👍🏼“

“My sister and I have been to this place and that both of us got two hot chocolates, hashbrowns and a bagel with cream cheese. The food was wonderful, and the service was wonderful. The atmosphere was that there were people eating, drinking, talking in the store, it was busy, and people waiting in line.“
