Coffee Shops near St. Albans

“This is a great Dunkin. They had a great grasp of everything that needs to be done to keep it movin'

Starting to see the new tap system in many upgraded Dunkin locations and this is one of them. They seem to be doing some lite renovations and upgrades and it's looking good. This location also has a modest parking lot and shares the lot with several retailers. Overall, when I need a quick shot of espresso and I'm in this area, this is a great spot.“

“I was looking for a place where I could sit with a friend (or 2), that served coffee and tasty food, that had power outlets for customer use, within walking distance from the 7 subway in downtown Flushing. I have been going to Busy Bee Coffee almost weekly for 2 months. As long as I or my friend need a power outlet and the coffee/drinks are available, I'll keep coming and recommending this place. Thank you for a great landing place.“

“The coffee is always amazing, and you can tell the baristas really know what they’re doing. Every drink is made with care, and the quality is consistently great.

The owners are also awesome. They’re friendly, welcoming, and genuinely care about their customers. It’s the kind of place where you feel appreciated from the moment you walk in.

Great coffee, great people, and a great vibe. If you’re looking for a spot with excellent drinks and outstanding customer service, this is definitely it. Highly recommend!“

“Honestly, the healthiest cafe in the Castle Hill area of the Bronx, if not in the Bronx!“

“Truly the best spot in Long Island for bubble tea. Superior drinks and customer service. Don't sleep on the coffee either!“

“I had a wonderful experience here. The Butter Cookie Latte was absolutely amazing—easily one of the best specialty lattes I’ve had in a long time. The Caprese sandwich was good and fresh, though it wasn’t quite as memorable as the coffee.

What really makes this place stand out is the atmosphere and service. The staff were welcoming and attentive, creating a warm and comfortable environment. The music selection was relaxing and perfectly suited for getting work done on a laptop or simply enjoying a peaceful break. If you’re looking for a cozy café with great coffee, excellent service, and a productive yet calming vibe, this is definitely worth a visit.“

“A lovely café with a nice, relaxing environment and simple yet elegant décor. The vibe is calm and inviting—perfect for unwinding or enjoying a quiet moment. I tried the matcha latte and absolutely loved it; the balance between the milk and matcha was just right, smooth and not overpowering. The avocado sandwich was also delicious and very satisfying. A great spot to relax and enjoy quality drinks and food. Highly recommend!“

“Beautiful coffee shop on Queens Blvd. I had a cortado and a black cup of coffee. Both were just ok. The food and the pastires are the draw here. Too many delicious cakes to mention. The avocado toast was outstanding. Topped with grape tomatoes, feta, calmata olives, and herbs. Outstanding. I had the spinach and cheese filo dough pie that was great as well. The shop is very well appointed. There's outdoor seating. Service was great.“

“I love French vanilla coffee, it's something else!!“

“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!!“

“I ordered the greek wedding cookies and they were absolutely delicious. Growing up in Astoria, I had access to the best Greek/Mediterranean food, and these surpassed my expectations. I can’t wait to go back and try all the other items offered. Great spot and location.“

“One of the best spots in the Bronx ! Hands down !“

“I stopped by before work and was really impressed. The cold brew was fantastic, very smooth, rich, and easy to drink without any bitterness. It’s the kind of coffee that stands well on its own and makes you want to savor every sip.

I also love that they’re open early, which makes it a convenient stop on my morning commute. Finding a great coffee shop that’s open when you actually need it can be surprisingly difficult, so this is a huge plus. I’ll definitely be stopping by more often and look forward to trying more of their coffee offerings.“

“Just went to Greek City Grille and ordered the chicken souvlaki platter with lemon potatoes. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and the lemon potatoes were absolutely amazing. The staff was extremely friendly and the place was so clean and decorated beautifully. Will definitely be coming back!“

“The best in the neighborhood!“

“This cafe is fabulous! Delicious coffee and baked goods, friendly staff, everything you need! The owners are wonderful. I'm in here about five times per week, I love this place!“

“Saw the reviews for this place while visiting for a festival. Tried it out our first morning and was in love. This place is incredible. The lady working was so sweet and suggested things for my daughter and I to try. Definitely a gem of a coffee shop. Try whatever she suggests. You won't be disappointed.“

“Cheesecake is one of New York City's most iconic desserts, and no visit to NYC feels complete without a stop at Junior's. Known around the world for its legendary cheesecakes, this classic bakery has been serving up rich, creamy slices for decades and has become a must-visit destination for both locals and tourists.

We decided to keep it simple and try two classics: the Original Cheesecake and the Key Lime Pie. The Original Cheesecake was exactly what you hope for from a New York-style cheesecake—smooth, dense, and incredibly creamy without being overly sweet. The signature sponge cake crust added a unique touch that set it apart from other cheesecakes we've had.

The Key Lime Pie was equally impressive. It had the perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors, with a silky filling and a light whipped cream topping that complemented the citrusy lime flavor beautifully. It was refreshing, rich, and the perfect dessert after a day of exploring the city.

Whether you're a cheesecake lover or simply looking to experience a true New York food institution, Junior's lives up to its reputation. The desserts are delicious, the portions are generous, and it's easy to see why this spot is considered one of the city's most famous sweet destinations.“

“I have loved Tim Hortons ever since my first cup in Toronto! I had some time to kill waiting for the train and was delighted to see they had a kiosk at the LIRR stop! They just launched their fall pumpkin donut and latte and they were amazzzzzinnnnngggg. Staff was super friendly and served the meal with a smile Shadeek and Adiba were awesome!“

“Employees are Always the best!! Very personal and professional always with a smile!! I love their coffee it truly is the best!! I’m sad to be moving in the new year as they won’t be anywhere close.. hopefully they see this review and open one in Catskill or close to!! I will be making trips to Hyde park just for my favorite coffee when I can ❤️“

“Did catering order with them for a healthcare organization event - it was DELICIOUS! Jose at the store helped me with it. And as promised, he was ON-TIME, and gave us extra food as well. His customer service was very pleasant, and also very easy to work with. Will definitely place more catering orders with them.“

“my mom and i always come here to treat ourselves. the matcha never disappoints, and the focaccia sandwich is absolutely delicious! the atmosphere is cozy, the staff is always friendly, and it’s become one of our favorite spots. highly recommend if you’re looking for a great matcha and a tasty bite to eat!“

“I came across with this tiny pretty coffee shop couple months ago and absorlutely fell in love with everything they have.It's filled with charming little ornaments, vintage books and lush green plants.I love their good quality teas and coffees but I am crazy about bingsoo the most.Their bingsu is the best bingsu I ever had.I highly recommend bingsu.If you want to grab something to eat,they have yummy and healthy sandwiches as well.
The owner and staffs are friendly, inviting and always give happy vibes.“

“A good spot with good wifi where you can get some work done. I would recommend it to anyone“

“The drinks and ambiance are awesome! The Nutella Latte is the absolute best!“

“Ambiente agradável… Serviço excelente !!! Deliciosos crepes… Cappuccino com nutella… Amazing 😻 Super recomendo !!! 🇧🇷 to 🇺🇸“

“Delicious place first tome going today and I really liked it the pineapple green tea Nata jelly was super good. I’ll be going back for more.“

“Stopped in here for a quick breakfast- iced latte and avocado toast were primo. I’d skip the donuts, they looked pretty but were dry. The scrambled eggs and the avocado toast were absolutely incredible though. My daughter also had a pineapple mango smoothie that she loved too.“

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

“Delicious food, great service, friendly atmosphere, free parking…“

“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 must say this place really impressed!
Maybe one of the cleanest looking restaurants I have ever scene.
Very nice ambiance.
Food was yum, we got truffle fries, penne aka vodka, the cauliflower, and mozzarella sticks, and pizza.
Got a salad that was ehh but they took it back no problem, really good service.
Bathroom was also very nice, fresh smelling…..

Shoutout to Juan who ran after us to give us our pizza in the freezing cold 📣📣“

“Nice ambiance…and I love the honey lemon tea❤️“

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

“The plum cream latte is 10/10
The best thing I’ve ever tried! I’m actually addicted. The sweet cold foam on top is amazing! Just make sure you mix it so it can be evenly sweetened. I also like the salted caramel latte I just wish it was slightly creamier but the presentation is perfect! It has like a chunk of honey comb in it.“

“I got the mango/matcha soft serve! Needless to say, this was one of the most delicious matcha desserts I have had in a long time! I'm a matcha enthusiast and I have been to Maiko before but never had their soft serve. This was exactly what I needed to satisfy my sweet tooth! The flavor is sweet enough and the matcha really come through - I can compare the flavor profile to Chigi no shiro by Marukyu Koyamaen. Overall, this was a perfect dessert for an extreamly warm day in NYC“

“Love!! Will definitely come back. Food was great. I got the steak and eggs that came with truffle fries. Portion size was perfect. I also got the mimosa flight which was worth it! Loved the vibe and the staff was friendly. Only note was that I asked for my steak medium and it was definitely on the well side, but it was still tasty.“

“Delightful place to stop for afternoon tea. Discovered their Blue Azul Tea and pistachio cream filled Yemini bread puff! Really delicious and comfortable well lit place to enjoy a bite in the neighborhood. If they expand their menu to include vegan sandwiches they will be perfect!“

“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.“

“One of the best places to get a bite to eat and get a coffee! They have açaí bowls, Korean corn dogs, and more! Such an amazing place and did I mention it’s KOSHER!!!!“

“Cute, lowkey coffee shop with some indoor seats & plenty of outdoor seating. Ordered the chopped cheese sandwich & it was incredible! It was a really good size & I didnt feel guilty eating it afterwards. Will definitely be coming back & aiming to try everything on their menu! Staff was really warm and welcoming!“

“OMGGG THE SERVER ISBAH WAS SO AMAZING!!!!!! She made me feel so safe and understood. I never had donuts like these before. She took her time and patience with every donut she made. You can see the love and joy she added to my order. I personally believe she deserves a raise! :)“

“Solid cafe with a really unique drink menu!

Visited Off Peak Coffee and loved the balance of flavors.

Here’s what we tried:
Pistachio Latte (4.5/5): Perfectly balanced and full of rich pistachio flavor without being overwhelming

Dirty Yuzu (4/5): A really interesting combination. It has a nice, subtle tang from the yuzu that works surprisingly well, and it’s thankfully not overly sweet

Black Sesame Latte (4.5/5): Smooth, well-balanced, and hits just the right level of sweetness

Definitely a great spot if you're looking to try something beyond your standard espresso drinks“

“its fast and reasonably priced rhe honefries are the best! Kevin is a nice guy ro talk to as well have him take your picture and it gets put up on the wall.“

“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 customer service is truly exceptional, you come here to relax and appreciate a cappuccino. The desserts are really such a compliment to any day. The neighborhood is so much better for this local brick and mortar gem. Always looking
forward to my next trip🌷“

“Great service and mega delicious coffee and pastries 👌 Highly recommendable!“

“Kind and knowledgeable owner! The coffee is good and the strawberry scones are great!“

“Came here around 10:30pm at night looking for a matcha latte. I was confused at first because it looks like a hotpot spot. So it seems like it’s three different stores in one. Along with Cotto Coffee, they also serve BK lemon and Mala Siblings Hotpot. They have the two different beverage spot menus posted by the cashier. I was able to easily order off the Cotto menu at the late hour even thought people were mostly there for the hotpot. Iced matcha latte was good. One of the cashiers quickly made it for me and asked me for my specifications (milk, sugar level if I wanted sugar). It was the little pick me up I needed.“
