“Best coffee in Whitestone. Coffee beans to purchase here are more expensive than gold, very high quality though. Everything is good here, seems relatively understaffed at times, but would recommend definitely better than the other overpriced crap in Whitestone, especially the guido espresso bar around the corner that charges 10 dollars for a quad espresso. 🇬🇷“

“This coffee is the best coffee that I have ever had. It has ruined all other coffee for me...which is not a bad thing.🖤🖤🖤“

“The rum infused espresso is to die for… Even as a coffee enthusiast this is not something I’d seen before but it definitely made for a cool experience and made it feel like more than just your typical cafe.

Never been to a coffee shop where the staff are so friendly, genuinely left a bit shocked after having been asked to have our photo taken for the instagram!

We had a couple of the chicken empanadas too and would highly recommend!“

“💯Best Coffee Ever!!! 💯“

“The coffee rocks. You have to have coffee black with NO Sugar to catch all the flavors. The Guatamala medium roast is the star in my eyes. I usually like a dark roast but this has such nice undertones the lushness of a dark roast is not missed. There is a nice, sneaky, dark chocolate taste on first touch with your tongue, then a vanilla aroma in your nose with a bit of dark berry. It has a smooth and lower acid texture, which I love. The final hit is of a citrus zest. Like oil squeezed from the lemon skin, not a micro-planing of the skin. I received two 12oz bags of the Guatamala: one drip grind, one whole bean. I tried it hot with the drop grind and it was shocking good, as noted above. The beans I ground for cold brew. The cold brew had a stronger chocolate back end but while the fruit flavor disappeared, the lemon oil remained. I like cold brew better in general because of the lower acidity but the difference between the hot and cold brew versions did not have a substantial difference in the amount of acid. Excellent and recommended. Would love it if they tried a dark or even espresso roast. It might lose some of the nuance, but I bet the chocolate would stand out further. I was also given a bag of Curiosity blend. This was medium roast and very smooth. My partner loved this more than the Guatamala, especially the cold brew, and could drink it all the time. They called it a very clean, smooth coffee with no bite. I found it a very good coffee but with no standout flavors. I also thought it had a slightly rough aftertaste on the back of the tongue. Time to run to the Brooklyn Navy Yard for another bag. 😋😋😂😋😋“

“This coffee is amazing and offers so many decaf choices! I highly recommend them.“

“Great coffee, We stopped at Roast’d coffee shop before heading to NYC, great experience; the pour over coffee was fantastic. Johan was quite friendly explaining different coffee beans as he roasted them and brews the coffee. I tried the espresso as well brewed from 3 different beans, very tasty. Now this is our favorite place to have coffee when traveling to NYC. We talked with local customers, so good vibes and recommendations. Awesome place if you love good coffee.“

“This is a really sweet cafe in Harlem! I was visiting from Oregon when someone suggested I stop by, and I'm sincerely glad I did. You can tell the owner and employees care about their craft, and have fostered a great community in their cafe. Great coffee, delish pastries, kind people. What more could you want?“

“My daughter won a contest on Instagram for 2 free meals, drinks and cookies. She invited her sister, so it was 3 of us. We drove from Babylon to Manhasset to try this cute little cafe. When we got there I let the cashier, maybe manager know who we were. She was so gracious, explained the menu items and recommended the coffees we should try. We placed our order and waited. The food that came out was so pretty, smelled amazing and was delicious too.“

“Had a classic cold latte (Rum flavored with whole milk) & a hot Americano (whiskey flavored).

Both were great. Cold latte packed a punch in its flavor that was detectable even through the milk, and Americano had great fragrance that slowly showed its flavor as I quickly sip down the burning liquid.“

“I come here for coffee daily and highly recommend it. There’s a lot to love about the place, including the friendly community and consistently good, house-roasted coffee. Not to mention, there’s a decent amount of seating and the WiFi is serviceable.“
