21 Best Cafes in Staten Island

“I had The Truffle Egg Toast it was splendid and Exquisite taste, aswell as cooked to perfection. But also My neighbor keeps peeking over my fence at Me. And He constantly let's his dog go in my yard. Not to mention he always puts his trash in my garbage cans“

“I had crepes for breakfast today and everything was amazing! The food was delicious, the coffee was great, and the service was outstanding. The guy Lisander who helped me was very kind and attentive. I totally recommend this place ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Always incredibly delicious food. Tastes like home made! Avocado toast with a twist (+ chicekn) is to die for. Thank you for staying open❤️“

“Came in for a simple cappuccino and what I got was a great conversation with an OG, Johnny Beans. Got a sample of their new frozen dirty chai, which was unreal. And ended up getting the world famous crumb cake which was 12/10. Will definitely be back and for sure the best spot on Staten Island.“

“Nice warm comforting food amazing prices, I had a fantastic waitress Nicole pleasent lovely patient and really knew her orders. The cooks ben and nick my goodness they make the best most flavorful food I have had in a long time I will be returning often“

“I went here today with my cousins actually I don’t know the guys name there but he definitely is experienced, full of joy, and it’s funny bc I bought matcha from him and it was great like he knew what he was doing. However I’m new in the area so I thought I should try the coffee across the street. And it was not bad but redemption rlly was redeeming itself bc of the matcha. I regret not gettting coffee from here. As I walked back with the other coffee he saw us. When we saw him it looked like he thought we betrayed him. However he doesn’t know that his coffee shop is way better. And I will be there more often. Also the atmosphere was awesome!!!“

“We are learning about Taiwan in school and decided to try Bubble Tea. The employees were very kind and explained how Bubble tea originated from Taiwan, gave our children stickers and helped them through their first time eating the Boba. I love that they have caffeine free and low sugar options.

Kid-friendliness: Low sugar and caffeine free options. They were also very friendly to our children and gave them stickers.“

“The coffee is fantastic, especially if you're a fan of strong coffee!“

“I love everything about this place. Besides the uniqueness and how many beautiful things there are to look at, you won't find better breakfast anywhere on the island. I've also tried the specialty coffees and probably EVERY pastry, cookie and donut - you can't go wrong no matter what you choose! Staff at the front are always very sweet and helpful.“

“They have amazing vegetarian and vegan options on both the food menu and within the bakery. Everything is so so so good!“

“We had our daughters Sweet 16 dinner there last night with about 30 people. Everything was perfect! The staff was attentive, the food was delicious and the prices are just right. This was our second time here and we will continue as customers.“

“Amazing carrot cake, and I love that you can get it by the slice. Huge slice too!“

“The coffee is so good. The food is so good. The staff exceeds even my old school service standards. They’re also friendly, they’re also helpful, they’re incredibly welcoming and generous with their time and advice. I’m already a regular and I will continue to be so.“

“👍👍👍great place by far the best acai shop out there. ❤️“

“worker at the store who took my order was super nice, prices are reasonable too, but the space was a little small (doesn't really matter if you want to take out), they also take tap/apple pay if you don't carry cash, drink itself was very good too (i got the brown sugar black milk tea, medium) though it was too sweet at the bottom, but you just have to mix the sugar in with the tea first, definitely recommend coming to this place!“

“We would like to thank Paul & his staff from Hillside Gourmet for sending breakfast to the Material Management Dept. at SIUH/Northwell Health. ❤️ @siuhnorth“

“Veteran owned! I appreciate how law enforcement/ military friendly this cafe is- especially considering the location and the current political climate. How lovely it was to be somewhere that celebrated those who put their lives on the line to protect us.

The interior is much larger than it seems from the outside, with plenty of spaced apart tables for private conversations.

The menu was extremely affordable and surprisingly extensive for a local coffee shop (they have a kitchen in the back and everything is prepared fresh).

Only downfall is the difficulty to find parking and the little to no gluten free options. Please add gluten free bread or pastries!!“

“I had the waffles and my boyfriend had the French toast. Both were amazing. 100% recommend.“

“I had the pleasure of visiting this spot while I was in Staten Island for fingerprinting for my new job. After getting my nails done, I came across it before heading back to Brooklyn. The food was fresh, the drinks were amazing, and the service was outstanding. The person who made the drinks was super attentive and offered great recommendations. The atmosphere has that perfect cozy coffee shop feel, making it a great place to either get some work done or just relax with a drink and snack. I only wish they had a location in Brooklyn or the city—and if they do, someone please let me know!“

“The Chocolate is delicious and the service is exceptional. Karen and Adriano helped me decide when I couldn’t. After I had breakfast in the Cafe and the food was delicious. The eggs were cooked perfect and presentation was professional.“

“Excellent place!“
