27 Best Cafes in Queens

“Amazing food and the service was great and attentive! Had a cappuccino with oat milk and a breakfast plate with avocado toast and French toast to share. Very flavorful meal and the espresso was amazing.

I also really loved how they decorated the place with a variety of portraits and positive affirmations around the cafe!

Will definitely visit again next time with friends and family to try out more food options and drinks! :)“

“The best in the neighborhood!“

“AMAZINGGGG BUBBLE TEA, CREPE, ROLLED ICE CREAM & MORE!!! WILL BE BACK FOR SURE“

“Abbiamo frequentato il Santa Chiara Café durante la nostra vacanza a Manhattan. Conosciuto per caso è diventato la nostra tappa preferita per la colazione e non solo. Locale raffinato, pulito ed elegante, in pieno stile italiano con vista mozzafiato sullo skyline. Personale educato simpatico e competente. Cibo e bevande di una qualità top a prezzi moderati. Ma vogliamo raccontarvi di più. Al Santa Chiara Caffè tra i nostri preferiti: cornetti, crostate e piccola pasticceria…davvero eccellenti. Gelati artigianali cremosi e gustosi. Nulla è lasciato al caso, anche i nostri amici a quattro zampe erano super felici di fare colazione con i bellissimi biscottini per animali. Una menzione particolare per Enzo best omelettist in town. Last but not least, il proprietario Cristiano, gentile, educato, professionale, simpatico e generoso. Un posto da non perdere, infatti non vediamo l’ora di tornare…aspettateci! ****** English We bumped into Santa Chiara Cafe by chance and after it became our favourite place for breakfast but not only…it is clean and elegant in classic italian style with a great view towards the Manhattan skyline. The staff is nice, polite and very skilled. Food and drinks are top quality with modest price. However, we want to tell you more; favourite food, among the others, are croissants, tart and all the deliciuos small cakes. Not to mention the excellent homemade ice creams. Nothing is left to chance, also our pet friends were super happy to taste the eccellent cookies. Special mention to Enzo who makes the best omelette in town. Last but not least, the owner Cristiano: polite, kind, nice, professional and very generous. Highly reccomended place, not to be missed, we are looking forward to go back again…wait for us!“

“Stopped in for a cold juice while out for a walk. It was a nice experience and we loved our juices but what makes this place special is the owner Maria. She made us feel so welcomed and treated us as if we were her family. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Please go support a local business!“

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

“Tasty Soufflé, cold Brew coffee and green tea“

“The guy was the sweetest most caring person, he made sure to decorate my ice cream and put it in the freezer while prepping my other order of chocolate bread. It felt very nice going to a place that puts effort and care into the food and its customers. Most definitely will be coming back with friends and family’s price is super fair as well!“

“good food options in a nice place“

“First time coming inside here always pass it but never went in wow how I regret it now, their apple lemonade r delicious as well as their onigiri rice balls nom nom ^^“

“the macchiato so smooth and good ... el Barista un professional... good service fast wifi... very chic environment...I love it“

“Been here a few times. Usually come here for their vegetable omelette platter which include mushroom and peppers home fries , Israeli salad and whole wheat bagel. Healthy breakfast options available for reasonable pricing. Can get a little busy so if you order ahead might be better.“

“Exceptional in every way. The attention to detail is what sets this restaurant apart. The food was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and artfully plated. The staff anticipated our needs and made sure the evening was flawless from start to finish. The environment was comfortable, clean, and stylish. This restaurant has mastered the art of combining outstanding cuisine with excellent hospitality.“

“Delicious desserts and great coffee!“

“A very beautiful space with cozy sofas, interior and light. The food wasn’t something crazy about: we took potatoes, parsnip soup, and tiramisu latte, they were okay. The place by itself was a little bit dirty on the floor, and some details, as a server that didn’t know that tiramisu includes alcohol in a recipe, and the fact that the same coffee was served in different cups, brought a feeling of mess, however I want to come back for lazy mornings atmosphere.
We parked right near the main entrance, however it’s under construction zone now.“

“As a local, I truly consider this coffee shop one of the sweetest gems in our community. I recently had a little Galentine’s get-together here, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The family who runs it is incredibly kind and accommodating.

The coffee shop is decorated so pretty. We loved everything we tried, but the cookie butter latte and banana oat latte were definite favorites! The food was also good!

Great prices, cozy atmosphere, and such a friendly vibe — this will absolutely continue to be my go-to spot. 💕☕“

“Calm loving atmosphere. Staff awesome“

“Very cute and clean spot! Everything we got was delicious & we would 100% get it again!
-the croffles are perfect chewiness & texture, and they are the right level of sweet without being overpowering
-the Kagoshima match latte was nice and rich....and the strawberry cream just made it even better
- the pandan latte was amazing! Just the right amount of pandan and espresso, both flavors came through without one dominating the other

And 5 stars to the baristas, who were really cool about adding strawberry cream to my wife's matcha after I forgot to order it 😅 thank you for saving me from certain gruesome death!!“

“Korean bakery in Northern boulevard, not a lot of parking on the street/parking lot, but you can park elsewhere.

The place itself was pretty busy even though it was literally like 2 degrees outside. They had the viral Dubai chewy cookie and alot of pastries and breads that were good.

We tried a chive and cream cheese bread, Dubai chewy cookie, French toast, and salt bread. The salt bread was light and fluffy, the French toast had a nice cinnamon sugar dusting and crispy, and the chive and cream cheese bread was good, a lot of cream cheese though.

The Dubai chewy cookie was alright. It had alot of cocoa powder on it making it messy, and not really strong pistachio flavor.

We also got a matcha latte which was just pretty standard matcha, not strong matcha taste and watered down quick. They did have some unique other drinks but we didn’t get to try it.“

“my iced dalgona latte was alright, not the best espresso not the worst. the delicious breakfast platter made up for it though, and it is pricey, but SO worth it. not pictured but i also got an ube milk tea, which was great and very flavorful. the cafe itself is very beautiful and comfy, i was here with my friends for hours. staff is nice and helpful :) this place is a must-visit for breakfast lovers!!“

“We had a wonderful experience hosting our running group event at Arya Café. Everything was handled professionally and smoothly from start to finish — exactly how it needed to be for a large group.

The food was delicious, the service was organized and welcoming, and our huge group of runners left truly satisfied and happy.

Thank you to the Arya Café team for the great cooperation and for helping make the event such a success. We’re looking forward to coming back and working together again in the future!

“I am always looking for halal places to have breakfast as regular diners are just pancakes and waffles, no meat. This place was amazing. The food was so delicious and the portions large - extra large for the price. We have the waffles and chicken, the seasoned chicken with naan, the best diner French toast and chicken peri peri wrap. Super delicious.“

“It has the best cheese and honey bread in the world! Attention note 1000000 😍😍😍 Thank you QueijoMel!!!“

“Had a great experience, Natalia was our waitress and the service was amazing.

We were looking for authentic Colombian food and have found our spot. They have a variety of delicious authentic dishes!

Highly recommend!“

“Come check out the Star Cafe! My cousin recently visited here and said his order was the "chef's kiss" - not to mention the ambiance and friendly service the staff provided! The price might be high but you definitely get your money's worth!

Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly“

“I love this cafe. Their pastries are made everyday by the couple that owns this shop. My mom loves it here bc she is diabetic and their goods aren’t over sugared at all. You can still taste the baked goods without the extra sugary sweetness their lava bread is to die for by the way!“
