50 Best Cafes near Lynbrook

“Ordered on DoorDash. Hungry man made correctly, fresh ingredients. Bagel with choc chip cream cheese. Also fresh. Good spread. Copious amounts of the cream cheese. Bagel fresh not to chewy. Overall decent experience. Now let's take it up a notch and sell spreads on DD by the 1/4 & 1/2 pounds!“

“Great food great service. Try the prime rib special on Saturday nights. Been coming here 30 years.“

“Such a cozy little spot to reset and recharge ✨ I stopped in today for a spinach croissant and a Pellegrino, and everything felt fresh and welcoming from the moment I walked in. The atmosphere was inviting and made it the perfect place to sit, catch up on some work, and enjoy a peaceful break before heading to my next destination.
The staff was kind, the pastries tasted fresh, and overall it was a really pleasant experience. I’d definitely recommend this café and will absolutely be returning. ☕🥐“

“Food, drinks, service , music is Amazing 🥳Manager/ owner is very personal and professional 👍Celebrated my husband birthday!“

“Amazing atmosphere and superb customer service. The best bubble tea around! Want a customized drink? They have an amazing “secret menu” of all kinds of hand crafted drinks! Everything is absolutely DeLicious!“

“The environment is very warm and feels natural. They used to have a pacman game by the stools on the side, but have gotten rid of that. However, the food is AMAZING. I have been coming here for the past year or so whenever I have appointments or am craving a sweet treat. I love the biscoff and cream waffle but also the k-dogs have been good for when I want hot foods.“

“Such a cute unique and cozy vibe! I fell in love with the dalgona milk bingsoo. It’s the best bingsoo I’ve had in NYC and outside of Korea and that’s saying a lot! Very unique and complex taste that I wasn’t expecting.“

“Humble cafe has a chill vibe which I loved. The music and setting is perfect for anyone wanting to relax, read or catch up with friends. I found it interesting that they roast their own coffee beans. I've never seen a machine like the one they have up close before so I found it unique. We just had an iced latte and ice coffee and found it to be a good Saturday afternoon spot to spend time in.“

“It’s more of a desert shop. Very tasty. The atmosphere is great too and very clean. The only down fall to the restaurant is the staff. Not welcoming at all and don’t greet you. I’m from out of country and I love to experience new places and I like to go back to restaurants that are friendly and warm, however, I won’t return here because of the staff lack of hospitality.“

“In a quest to find “REAL “ whitefish salad, I followed a friend’s suggestion and tried Cafe 17A. Amazing! This past weekend I tried several other salads- Vegetable Tuna, Chicken Salad, Egg whites and spinach, Egg salad and mushrooms and of course sliced Nova and home made cream cheeses. My guests raved! Everything is fresh, and homemade with Love by Scott, the owner. Thanks Scott, - can’t wait to return- You’ve definitely nailed it“

“Best Marathon Station EVER!!!“

“Worth the trip for some yummy and unique gluten free food! I wish there were more locations, if this was closer to me I would be visiting here all the time. They are a small shop and were pretty busy when we went in on a Sunday afternoon, but the staff was super friendly and very accommodating. Hashbrowns and waffles were to die for 😍“

“Edit 2026: this used to be my favorite spot around QC until today, I got a pressed juice but the actual juice/fruit they used was so little. After 10 minutes you could see the water to pressed ingredients ratio and it’s so little… I’m disappointed. It’s not the most expensive but if you’re going to sell me this then lower the prices

Old review 2025
Amazing boba! The flavor of the tea is amazing. The people working there are very nice and the boba pearls are nice“

“Firstly the setting is amazing, like living inside a museum piece. Secondly the food was excellent, from the Asparagus with olives to the Mac and Cheese (which I was initially suspicious of!). It's a decadent layer of crispy rich cheese varietes with the pasta hidden underneath.

It's on the pricey side, but the food quality & setting was there. However I would like to see an IPA for less than $15, this felt like too much even for a tall can of beer.“

“Just had food from the food truck, delish!!! Ate inside then ordered dessert and coffee, amazing. Lovely staff, welcoming place.☘️🇮🇹☘️“

“Healthy foods and a relaxing atmosphere. Nice people too!“

“I can’t believe I just discovered Off Grids Commons, especially since it’s so close to where I live. This is such a cool little coffee shop with a cozy atmosphere that makes you want to stay and relax.

So far, I’ve only tried their Ube Hojicha, and it was fantastic. The flavors were unique, well balanced, and unlike anything I’ve had at a typical coffee shop. It was smooth, not overly sweet, and left me excited to come back and explore the rest of the menu.

It’s always great finding a local spot that stands out, and I’m glad this one is practically in my backyard. I’m definitely looking forward to trying more of what they have to offer in the future. If you’re on or around Bell Boulevard, Off Grids Commons is absolutely worth checking out.“

“They’re food is outstanding! I would highly recommend them to all. Cakes are delicious and moist! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽“

“Found this little gem through Google as we took my mother in law to the hospital for her surgery. The place didn’t disappoint, we had French toast, avocado toast, and eggs with bacon and sausage. Everything was amazing and the owner who was also our server was super sweet and funny!! I would recommend this place to everyone !!“

“Honestly parking here is HORRIBLE because it’s located in a shopping center with a few other businesses/ restaurants so I would say best to park outside the lot. I ended up parking 2 blocks away which was far for this area. The cafe is small and can easily be missed. They’re a lot of seating and wasn’t busy so service was quick. They’re blueberry matcha was a special and when I received it I didn’t think I would like it as much since I’m not a fan of anything with pulp and the blueberry had pulp bits but you can tell it’s super fresh. After my first sip I can’t wait to go back for more because it was THAT good. Probably the best blueberry matcha I’ve ever had. I love places like this - little hole in the wall spots that just slap! Would recommend but it is far from me so I would have to make the 25 min drive (without traffic) just for this cafe. Wish the matcha was a little stronger so I would probably do double matcha next time but it did work well with the recipe for the drink. Would highly recommend giving this a try. I saw they have strawberry matcha too so maybe I’ll get both next time“

“We had a delicious Korean Street Toast and sausage egg, cheese breakfast sandwich and coffee and smoothie! We were able to order from their window and sit outside and enjoy the weather with our dog at their outdoor table. Service was so friendly!!!“

“I'm in town visiting family and had the chance to check out a few local spots that came highly recommended. Blacksmiths Breads was one of the breakfast places on my list.. and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The coffee was spot-on and the croissant was perfectly soft, buttery, and fresh. Everything hit the mark. I’ll definitely be back, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch, quick breakfast spot. 10/10!“

“I love the energy they have behind the counter especially Myra !!! but PLEASE please please (3x) bring the GARLIC TOAST BACK . That was my favorite and my go to after the gym forreal . I’ll never be the same without it ☹“

“The Polo Lounge is such a great place! We were celebrating our 1 year anniversary and another couple was celebrating their 50th anniversary! The food was delicious! The portions are appropriate so you're not totally full before your main course even comes. The atmosphere is a fun. There's a lounge singer and couples dancing. It was lovely to watch and we were sitting in our booth. There was a wedding going on, but it did not bother the restaurant at all. We will be back every year for our anniversary after bring married at Westbury Manor. The staff, the food, and the atmosphere will keep us coming back!“

“When I visited the cafe, Mahi took my order, and he was amazing. He was friendly, funny, and fast-paced. I ordered a taro bubble milk tea, and he had it out in what felt like an instant. Even though I wasn’t at the cafe for long, he checked on me to make sure everything was to my liking. By the time I left, he had made a lasting impression in a short amount of time. I’ll definitely be coming back to this excellent cafe in the future!“

“Great service and ambiance I had the avocado toast to die for and the coffee was amazing“

“Soulful Neighborhood Gem!
I feel truly blessed to have discovered Across Broadway Cafe. It is a rare find that manages to be both delicious and quaint, offering a cozy atmosphere that immediately feels like home.
The South American food here is the real deal—everything is incredibly fresh and delicious. They offer a great variety of authentic flavors, from perfectly cooked meals
to rich, bold coffee. You can tell everything is made with high-quality ingredients and a lot of heart.
What really sets this place apart, though, are the kind people. The staff treats you like family, and their genuine hospitality makes every visit special. If you want a fresh, authentic meal in a space that feels welcoming and warm, this is the spot!
I had only a small sample , would love to have more 😊“

“Love this place. My kids can’t get enough. Amazing food and staff!“

“After a gazillion weeks of quarantine, or what seemed like anyway, we dined out in their courtyard. Everything was fresh and tasty and excellent service. It truly was a well earned treat, Looking forward to our next visit.“

“Fabulous healthy food. Kind staff. Definitely a favorite 👍🏻“

“I’m new to the Neighbourhood, but I just found my new spot. Tommy’s deli Is a nice convenient and well Established. The owner Angela was very nice very respectful and the way she ran her business and the entire presentation is a five out of five. It’s A+. She’s a great individual.
More so I had a dilemma and I just casually run it up with her, A stranger that just met while she was making me a sandwich
She gave me amazing advice and she made me feel a whole lot better About myself
The drinks and the food that I ordered from the place were delicious and I will find myself going there again.“

“Wide selection of delicious & well priced food and drinks in a cozy cafe atmosphere. Very friendly staff! Highly recommend“

“Food and service here is impeccable. Fresh ingredients, artisanal snacks, and healthy options! We stay at the hospital often and so happy with this healthy option in the neighborhood. The ambiance is super adorable too-- perfect place to catch up with friends.“

“OMG!! Absolutely delicious!!! This is my 10th time here and I am still impressed with the food and service. I had the Tuscany chicken melt- highly recommend and my sister had the Parmesan crusted chicken - phenomenal!! Our waiter Anthony- THE BEST! Attentive, polite and generous. Every time I visit NY- I look forward to coming here! I wish they would branch out to Florida. Compliments to the chef and staff- keep up the GREAT WORK!“

“My sister loves this spot so had to check it out. Enjoyed their cara caramel latte and latte with vanilla malt syrup. Tons of pastries to choose from. Enjoyed their spinach feta as well as breakfast burrito. They sell merch and tons of other cute knickknacks. Plenty of space to sit and enjoy whatever you end up ordering. The coffee baristas were super nice. Will be back for more caffeine!! You can encounter long lines depending on what time you come in.“

“Love this place excellent ice cream and macaroons“

“You can taste freshly baked walnut cookies at Cocohodo, and they are so delicious!! The atmosphere is cozy and cute, and the coffee is delicious!!“

“This is hands down one of my favorite spots. Everything is always fresh, flavorful, and made with care. You can truly taste the quality in their juices and smoothies.The vibe is always welcoming and positive. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about health and wellness.“

“Todo recomendable, buena atención y exquisito todo!!!“

“They have tea, coffee, & a gluten free pastry of the day...that made me happy! I had the raspberry rhubarb almond gluten free pastry & it was delicious! It was so good, I was able to get it the next day & brought one home for my sister!“

“Nice Cafe. Great spot for delicious food with excellent service ..The prices are very reasonable and the portion size are just right. They make the best grits which I rarely order out.“

“I stopped by this bakery on a whim, and I’m really glad I did. Everything looked fresh, and the pastries tasted just as good as they looked. I tried a croissant and a cinnamon roll, and both were flaky, soft, and full of flavor without being overly sweet. The staff was friendly and patient, and the shop itself was clean and welcoming. You can tell they put a lot of care into what they make. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their breads and desserts.“

“good food options in a nice place“

“They need A Carlson button. Put everything in it.“

“It was wonderful to sit and talk with my company without having to raise my voice. They layout of the restaurant is great, warm and relaxing. Service and pace was on point. The menu has many options for all. My only reason not to give the experience a full 5⭐️is because the food was very good but not amazing.“

“I had to leave a review after my last visit a few days ago because it was honestly the best experience I’ve ever had at Sobol. A girl named Alexis made my bowl, and it was hands down the best bowl I’ve ever gotten from here. Everything was made perfectly.

On top of that, Alexis had such amazing customer service. She was so friendly, patient, and genuinely sweet, which made the whole experience even better. You can really tell she cares about what she’s doing and about the customers.

I’ll definitely be coming back again, and I truly hope she’s there next time. Alexis made my day — Sobol is lucky to have someone like her!“

“Great studying spot. There’s two floors and the top floor has a lot of seating with charging outlets. I LOVE the mango mousse cake but it is on the pricier side for a small fist-sized cake (~$14). I also really enjoy the yuzu earl grey tea, super refreshing on a hot day. Highly recommend if ur cramming for finals or just want a nice cafe to chat at.“

“As an instructor of multiple classes at Wowmoms World Long Island, my experiences have been positive in every aspect of the facility. The clients, the children, the staff, the franchise owner, the play space, the fitness area, the cafe....EVERYTHING, HAS BEEN A PLEASURE FOR ME. I am able to have my almost 2 year old daughter with me at all times and she feels comfortable, safe and at home whenever we are there. Whether we are teaching classes, taking classes, playing, or eating a nutritious lunch, it is always a welcoming feeling being a part of such a pleasant and positive nurturing environment. If you havent had a chance to visit, please find some time. It is definitely worth it.“

“I am in love with this place. Besides the classic Italian menu items they have unique dishes like their Blueberry Meatballs and Calamari Verde ( my favorite ) add to that the wonderful staff and you have a great place to take family and friends to.“
