Unfortunately, The service is getting worse and worse each time I go there.
This place used to serve the best coffee in the area , but with all the new competition opening we will not choose to spend money in a place where the staff makes you feel like they don’t want you to be there, forget your order, then serve it wrong.

Sweetleaf is a really nice little cozy spot in LIC. Seems like it would be a good spot to go with some friends if some of you want to have a cocktail, but others don’t.
The latte I had (maple leaf latte) was a very nice flavor and just the right sweetness. Highly recommend stopping in and checking this place out if you are in the area.

During my stay at my friend's place in Long Island City, she recommended Sweetleaf for coffee, and I’m so glad she did! The design of the café is charming and inviting, making it a great spot to relax. I especially loved the spacious outdoor seating area, perfect for enjoying a cup of coffee on a nice day.
Not only do they serve excellent coffee, but they also have a selection of cocktails and food that looks tempting. It’s a fantastic place to unwind with friends or just enjoy some time to yourself. I highly recommend checking out Sweetleaf if you’re in the area!

The barista at the front was incredibly rude but the waitress when we sat was incredibly nice. Food and coffee were decent.

Stopped in for cold drinks on a hot August afternoon. Had a tasty strawberry iced tea and a iced chai latte. Worth a visit if you are in the neighborhood.

Absolutely horrible. I never write reviews, let alone negative ones, but I’m so pissed. Took 50 minutes to get two sandwiches. When we checked in, they said it would be out in 2 minutes, but it took 20 more minutes from that point. No apology, no offer for a refund, nothing. The food itself looks like it was basically thrown into the containers as you can see, and one of the sandwiches was missing the hashbrowns that are supposed to be in it — and it is literally called an egg and HASH ciabatta sandwich. Don’t go here.

The avocado toast was much better than I had expected. It was rather simple compared to other places, but an excellent combo of flavors and an almost perfect amount of crunch on the toast made for a fabulous meal. The two sunny side up eggs were extra for $3 and were delicious as well. Overall I had presumed the food to be closer 3 ⭐, at best 4 ⭐, but I'm going with 5 ⭐

I've been coming to this Sweet Leaf for over 10 years. Probably close to 13 years and its still my favorite coffee spot anywhere in the city. I've been on dates here, have caught up with friends here, tried picking up chicks here, taken an ex girlfriend here where we spent hours doing work and then just chatting the rest of the time. I've seen so many different employees come and go, tried all the pastries and the drinks. All this time and I've never had a bad time here. Hell, I remember during a super hot day outside, they gave me plenty of cops of ice when I just asked for a small cup.
The coffee and the rest of the coffee beverages are top notch and the pastries--though expensive--are top notch quality. Definitely not your typical coffee that has the run-of-the-mill pastries.
There's plenty of seating here if you come at a good time, a great sized, dimly lit bathroom and a great backroom that I believe you can even rent out for yourself/group of people. Don't quote me on that but I think you can reserve it or something.
What I love too is that you can get cocktails here after 5 or 6pm. And again, they are expensive, a little ridiculous with the prices BUT--big but--its GOOD stuff. And the ambiance is just perfect.
My favorite coffee spot in all of NYC. Love this place.
