50 Best Coffee Shops in Queens

“A hidden gem of a little café that feels like home the moment you walk in. Everything is made from scratch using fresh, organic ingredients, and you can truly taste the care in every bite. The lovely owner who runs the place pours so much love into her cooking, it’s food that comforts your soul as much as it feeds you. A simple, beautiful spot that reminds you how special homemade food can b. Highly recommended!“

“GREAT COFFEE I never could find a place that makes coffee like I do at home. Concept Coffe said “don’t worry, you’ll like it” and I LOVED it. Thank you!“

“Updated review: The owner called and messaged me to apologize. He even offered to make it right which i greatly appreciate.

Food and coffee is good here. Spot is cute but they need more people dedicated to the counter or tables. One person shouldn’t be in charge of both. I always end up waiting.“

“excellent coffee very nice place,very kind and professional staff !“

“I definitely recommend ! Perfect spot to hangout with family and friends ! Thank you abhi for a very fun weekend“

“A few years ago, I was hired to write a series of articles about regional Italian cuisine. Since then, I have been looking for traditional Italian gelato. Until yesterday, I have been consistently disappointed. But this? It was absolutely EVERYTHING I had dreamed about. The prices weren't ridiculous, the bathroom was PRISTINE, the staff were helpful and friendly and it was incredibly, amazingly delicious. My only complaint is that I live too far away from your stores to get it very often. But about that? My hips are less upset about the distance. :) I will definitely be back, though!“

“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. 💕☕“

“The brown butter banana latte is good! Everything was combined nicely and the drink itself was perfectly sweet. The banana taste came in more subtly. I felt I initially taste the brown butter before the banana aftertaste comes through. The cafe itself is really cute and there’s some tables for seating. We also tried the carrot cake which was delicious and the cream cheese frosting was great.“

“This is our local coffee shop, and my husband and I loved it. Workers and owner are so nice, the chai from there is my favorite!! The first time we went I got a chicken buffalo sandwich, and my husband got a tuna sandwich. Ever since we have tried other items in the menu, the crepes are so so good, and we really recommend this place 🫶🏼🫶🏼“

“Great coffee spot. Love their mocha with oat milk. Pastries are also delicious. Friendly people. Love how they explain the pastries and ingredients in it so you know what you're getting.“

“We recently hired Royal Delight Catering for our company event and everything was perfect from start to finish. Peter gave us the best price and worked closely with us to match the setup exactly as we envisioned. The food was absolutely delicious our guests couldn’t stop talking about it!
What impressed me most was that Peter personally came to the venue to make sure every detail looked great and that we were happy. I’m so glad we chose Royal Delight Catering; they made our event stress-free and memorable. Highly recommend!

“I was in the mood to try something new when I came across this coffee shop, and I am sooo glad I came here because everything was amazing! I got the Nutella latte and the avocado toast which were both phenomenal. The latte wasn’t bitter at all and had just the right amount of sweetness and creaminess. The avocado
toast had a red chili olive oil combo which was new to me, but it completely elevated the dish and left me pleasantly surprised. The place is very cozy inside with only a couple seats available but they also have some outdoor tables as well. The employees were very friendly and welcoming, and I’m already looking forward to coming back! 10/10 :)“

“It's 2026 and you get a great super filling breakfast at a price you cannot imagine!
Toast, 2 good size hash browns and 2 eggs just for $6! Big coffee mug just for $2.
Great vintage ambience and warm staffs. You guys are amazing and wish you all the great things!“

“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!“

“great coffee. Michele is a warm and gracious barista.“

“We (Bae, Brody & I) love Grey's Cafe! Highlights are the delicious Lattes, the friendly and always welcoming with a smile, service. Bonus points for the various fun places to sit around the coffee shop. Inside and out. The vibe is very studious. E.g., Smart people there studying science and anatomy. I get a lot of work done when there.
*Need to mention the holiday decorations.“

“The best Algerian restaurant in NYC, no doubt 🥰“

“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!!“

“The best burger ever! Service impeccable!! I would recommend to everyone!!“

“You must check out this coffee roaster in Astoria! They have a variety of coffees available so you are sure to find one you like. If you want a little treat they offer a variety of pastries including gluten free and vegan options which is a huge plus. On Mondays at 10:30 am they do weekly coffee cuppings that are open to the public. Be sure to give coffee cupping a try, it's fun to taste different beans and talk with others about what you're tasting.“

“BEST Latte I have ever had!!! ☕️“

“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!

“One of the highly recommended place to hangout and enjoy delicious stuffs. Special mention to Bibek such a well behaved well spoken person, he adds on such a great vibe to the place.“

“I’m a satisfied customer.“

“i hardly ever leave reviews, but i felt inclined after ordered from bennys tonight. i am a first gen cuban and this place really hit the spot. they went the extra mile to include their version of moros which i asked for even though it wasn’t on the menu. love places like this, love even more to support a CUBAN small business. Thank you!!“

“Early morning flights not fun. Wanted healthier breakfast and was surprised Juniors at LGA, T2 had yogurt parfaits. It was fine (crunchier granola would be nice), but what made it all the better was staff member Carlos who welcomed me with a smile and courtesy that I think hard to muster so early in the morning! Thanks for the kindness and starting my trip off well.“

“The service. Big up Akeem. He made the experience delightful. Had to wait for the food but the service was awesome.“

“Literally the best place ever. Me and my friends always come here after our law program to get food and hang out. The workers here are so great and welcoming. The music isn’t loud, the workers are so sweet, and this place is totally something I would recommend to people.“

“Εξαιρετικός καφές, προσεγμένη ποιότητα, με ενδιαφέρον για τον πελάτη.“

“It's a really cute place...small...intimate...but I feel like it could use a facelift. It's pretty much been the same look for 10 years now. It would also be nice if they introduced some new food offerings. Also, more recently, their coffee has often tasted 'burnt'.“

“I really like this place when it comes to doing work, it’s very cozy and the atmosphere is welcoming. I love their coffees but the one that has my heart is the dalgona coffee it’s not too sweet or too strong, just perfect and the pieces of dalgona make it tastier“

“The best in the neighborhood!“

“First time coming here. I love the vibe. Very relaxing. I had the Luna sandwhich with an ice latte. Very delicious. Very friendly. There is not bathroom but not all places provide it to customers which is understandable. Overall great experience!!“

“An exceptional choice for coffee, drinkers local to this establishment I strongly suggest you pay them a visit and try their different varieties of cultivating coffee, brewed fresh and delicious foods available during their normal operating hours. The place is above par highly recommended on all platforms“

“My family and I love this place. Food is delicious, customer service is phenomenal! They go above and beyond to make their customers happy and to feel welcomed when you come into the store and even when they deliver for you! Not to mention deliveries are fast and reliable. A must try place!“

“An absolute amazing well made barista espresso based coffee, this is one of the best coffees I’ve had whilst in the US - flavoursome, smooth yet strong (I have 2% standard milk & loved it). It’s a great room, friendly staff; gorgeous to see both locals and tourists/travellers supporting the family run businesses in the surrounding streets.“

“You can get delicious coffee almost anywhere in NYC, but Sweetleaf coffee is both delicious and unique. I love the Rocket Fuel, which is a cold brew, maple, milk concoction - never had anything like it elsewhere. The atmosphere is so relaxing with tables, a cozy couch and the record room in the back. The delicious selection of pastries are made in house (you can see the kitchen through a big window behind the laptop room). They do everything right at Sweetleaf!“

“Absolutely a hidden gem! The meat is juicy and flavorful. Really hit the spot. It’s hard to believe we have authentic Mexican cuisine in east queens. But this place hits. We will definitely come back

Huge bonus to the service and free tortillas chips & salsa

There special items on weekends such as Taco de oreja and Taco de lengua“

“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.“

“Iced Mocha Latte!! Absolutely delicious !!“

“buen cerbicio Buena comida las cemitas muy ricas“

“My partner and I love getting sandwiches from here for lunch! They have a perfect amount of options and they all slap! But our favs are The Genovese and Polpette(meatball) sandwiches. We can’t recommend enough if you want an Italian sandwich. As well their desserts and pastries are yummy too.“

“I was there this morning and the girl working was awesome. We waited a little but that was fine. Donuts are always the best. Truly worth it. Sometimes small businesses struggle with staffing and it was evident they had a call out or something today with the holidays. Still love this place!!“

“Friendly staff, coffee is delicious! Can’t wait to try more from the menu. Welcome Coffee Ave!“

“Really nice spot , hole in the wall, Great place to get good breakfast, coffee , muffins, friendly bilingual staff, made to order, affordable prices, variety of food and drinks, nice little diner.

Parking: It's in an industrial area with very diverse customers, This place has everything you need to eat in or take out

Kid-friendliness: Kids can eat in, very friendly

Wheelchair accessibility: Just pick up the wheel chair and walk yourself in🥴🤔“

“love this place so much! have been going here for a few years and every time I go everything is so good :)“

“The new Pumpkin Basque Mochi Black Sesame Cake is absolutely incredible! The creamy pumpkin basque, the chewy mochi layer, and the rich nutty black sesame come together perfectly. It’s unique, balanced, and so satisfying without being overly sweet. One of the most creative and delicious cakes I’ve ever had—highly recommend!“

“What a special patissserie and boulangerie ! Every variety of French pastry, sandwich and bread is the finest you can buy anywhere. Their coffe beverages are also excellent. The multigrain loaf disappears quickly with loads of butter. Yum !“

“the best bakery in queens and Manhattan. everything there is fresh and tasty. I will visit again and again.“

“Es el mejor café que me e tomado no lo cambió por nada ♥️☕️“
