So glad I found this place! Sandwich was fantastic, and the coffee is top-notch. The ambiance is relaxed and stylish.
The Avocado and Fruits salad was both pretty and tasty. The passionfruit dressing was the perfect tartness against the fruit and burrata. And the iced Chai was the right balance of sweet and spicy.
Came here for dinner and was blown away! The sandwich was buttery and flavorful, and the matcha latte was perfect.
As a matcha lover, I can confidently say Lately Café has one of the best matcha lattes I’ve ever had. Smooth, vibrant, and not bitter at all.
I’m obsessed with their pistachio latte—it’s rich, nutty, and just the right amount of sweetness. outdoor seating is so relaxing, and the staff is super friendly. A must-visit!
Lately Café is my new favorite spot! The coconut latte is heavenly—creamy, not too sweet, and perfectly balanced.
10/10!! I always get food from here to both of my jobs. I work at a food spot and literally talked w my customers how good the food is here! Had the chicken mushroom pasta, pasta bolognese, steak sandwich, and spicy Cajun pork belly. You can’t go wrong w anything good here. I would give my first born to whoever cooking in the kitchen. I hope all the workers are paid well and the best in life cause 🤯🤯🤯. Easily my go to spot. Super fast and kind service as well!
Great food & coffee/ matcha
Order Ube latte every time when I go there. I’ve always loved their specialty coffee,every drink is unique and full of flavor. The ube was rich but not overpowering, and it blended perfectly with the espresso. Definitely one of my favorite spots for creative coffee! And the cutest spot in lic!!!
Definitely a great meal! Food is really good they have lot of different dishes that you cannot usually eat.

I visited this cafe yesterday with a group of about 20 friends, and we had a fantastic experience! We used the private basement space, which was perfect for our gathering. At just $30 per person, the food portions were generous, and everyone was really satisfied. The salad toast was particularly delicious – the vegetables were super fresh, and the flavor was spot on! Also, their minced meat rice was hands down the best we’ve had in New York. It wasn’t overly sweet, with a hint of acidity from vinegar that really suited our taste. The private space made it feel cozy and undisturbed, which is pretty rare to find around here. Highly recommend for gatherings and small events!

1:The coffee tastes below average of LIC area.
2:The reason we went there because they used to have a plug in there so I can study and spend some time there , that means I can lower the expectation of coffee.
3: Recently they don’t allow ppl coming there for coffee only. You have to buy brunch to be seated. Wait, For what? I know you want to make more money but isn’t this a Cafe ? Seriously?Will definitely never go this place again. If you want coffee there has a brunch of better options around here, btw you should change name as a restaurant or brunch place so ppl don’t get confused.
