50 Best Cafes near Sunnyside

“This shop always gives me comfort, the coffee and sandwich options are what I always look forward to in my mornings before work that I can’t find at other cafes, other places I’ve been to either have good food and watered down coffee or decent coffee and food that’s just ok. This spot is 5 stars out of 5 would recommend to anyone looking for a nice cafe in the area.“

“My favorite place for coffee. They roast their own coffee and custom grind it to your needs, French press in my case. Great hot and iced coffee to go. Iced is poured over coffee cubes not ice cubes. So it’s never diluted as the ice melts. And they have tasty mini croissants to go with it 😋 Conveniently located across 40th Street station on the 7 line so you can grab your coffee and quickly get to the El. The staff are very friendly and helpful. It’s always nice to go there. They’ve been in business for about 60 years so they’re doing it right.“

“Very clean ,food taste great, the smoothie are amazing ,and excelent service“

“Amazing food! Highly recommended! One of the best food menus in the neighborhood!“

“Cafe Colombia is an exceptionally delicious, homey spot for bakery and simple breakfast. Must try the oreijas, which are made of well-risen pastry with carom folded in. They are baked to a rich caramel, but flake perfectly when broken or bitten.“

“Loved this place. Cute little surprise in my neighborhood. Place was small but very charming. Staff was very accommodating, attentive and quick. Food looked and tasted amazing. Very flavorful. The icing on the cake was the music as they happened to play my type of alternative bands. This is definitely a 5 star spot ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Ygeor was extremely attentive to us at the table. Came with my mom and grandma to catch up and the food was great and even though they were out of some stuff and had to do some swaps everything was great. Great lighting, pretty solid food and prices, would come again for sure.“

“this corner spot caught our eye at around 9 on a thursday with it’s red glow & cute sunken dining room that is visible from the street. the ambiance - warm and cozy. the service - quick and very personable. the bartender is awesome. the food & drink - perfect. got the spiked horchata drink n a birria res gordita, both amazing and still thinking about… ***the best fresh masa/tortillas pressed right before serving - all within view from the bar - dinner n a show. literally can’t say enough good things. excited to come back. :)“

“Live in the neighborhood and just tried this place out for the first time and it was fantastic. The baristas were super friendly and it had great ambience. I got the cold brew which was not that expensive relative to some other coffee shops, and was delicious.“

“the ambience is top notch,the food is delicious,the server adriana is so pleasant,courteous & knows her job well.The manager Sasha is hands on & ensuring everyone is comfortable.highly recommend the fois gras,the scallop souffle,the full lobster & crab for appetiser.“

“One of the best places for brunch in NYC. Everything was fresh and delicious.“

“I love this place so much and it always hits the spot. It’s such a homey vibe and I’m always so impressed with how efficiently they can make food considering how small the open kitchen is. I’ve tried several things on the menu and they all slap. I love the effort that’s put into the presentation and you really can’t beat the price.

Most importantly i love that the kitchen is like 3 tias - it tugs my heart strings“

“I was there for a meet and greet and loved staying a few extra minutes to pet the dogs in the cafe. Such a nice break in my day!“

“Wonderful, caring staff(Grand Central Station)“

“My opinion is 9.1/10. Def lived up to hype. I had the yuzu, has a lemon flavor and I did enjoy it. If back in the area would try other flavors I heard the boba is what they are know for.

“Food was good and friendly customer service. I will recommend everyone this place.“

“Matcha Cafe Maiko is my favorite spot for desserts! This spot is my go-to, especially when I'm craving matcha or hojicha flavors. The Maiko Special is always one of my favorites to order and share with a friend, but this month's specials were black sesame which I knew I had to try as well! I ordered the black sesame soft serve and my friend ordered the black sesame latte, and both were incredible! I'm a huge fan of black sesame flavored desserts, and these really hit the spot.

Also loved how the shop was decorated beautifully for Halloween! Amazing quality desserts, service, and vibes. I also appreciate how this location has a few benches outside, so when I visit with friends, we're able to sit together right outside the shop and enjoy our desserts. I've been here several times and will definitely will keep coming back!“

“Loved every dish- fluke with black tea, mint and peach(who knew raw fish and fruit went so well together?), amazing grilled artichokes and grilled eggplant. Barely touched my pasta with preserved lemon because I was full, but it was delicious. My daughter’s burger was iconic. The Platonic ideal of hamburgers. Coffee was also delicious. If we had not made a plan to go to La Cabral for dessert and more coffee, I am sure dessert would have been equally excellent.Service was excellent and our waitress was knowledgeable and interested in the food.The fluke reminded me of the first time I went to USC in 1988. I had a plate with raw marinated tuna, raw salmon and raw scallops. The little heaps of fish were so pretty on the plate with their contrasting colors.“

“Love their cold brew coffee，If you’re looking for a charming place with a great atmosphere, you can’t pass HI-Collar up.“

“The best in the neighborhood!“

“After hearing great things about Land to Sea, we made the trip all the way from Long Island City—with our foster dog Mission in tow! The staff were so kind and even offered him ice water on a hot morning, which we really appreciated. We sat outside and were grateful for the shaded seating.

I had the roast pork bun and coconut bun—both were absolutely delicious! Perfectly chewy, moist, and full of authentic flavor.

Thank you for your kindness and hospitality. We’ll definitely be back!

“This place is a hidden gem in Williamsburg! It’s such a cute and cozy spot for Gelato and smoothies. Coffees are also served. The gelato was delicious! Great music and atmosphere. They even have a vinyl player, which I briefly played with. They have plenty of seating indoors and outdoors.“

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

“We fancied a light brunch on our way up to the Broadway theatre for a matinee show of The Buena Vista Social Club and as we had enjoyed our brunch at the Tartinery café & bar in Greenwich Village last week, we decided to try their branch on Park Ave.
The café was very busy with a lot of office workers having lunch, however, we were shown to a small table for two without having to wait. The menu at this branch was very silmilar to the one at Greenwich Village, however, they didn't have the eggs benedict my wife really enjoyed there, so she had the avocado on toast with the additional of a soft poached eggs today, which she really enjoyed, and a latte. I went for the lunch combo deal of a delicious creamy chestnut & mushroom soup with a fantastic chicken salad petite tartine with celery & pistachio. We also ordered a very tasty ham & cheese croissant to share whilst we waited for our main courses.
We were served by a very friendly and helpful waitress and used the male & female toilets at the back of the café. There's also a takeaway counter near the entrance selling pastries & hot drinks to go.“

“Awesome design! Friendly atmosphere! BUREKASIM!“

“Really happy to find that place! Great real coffee and very friendly staff.“

“It’s flavorful and doesn’t have all that extra sugar. Easy to make. I love the recipes people are sending in as well!“

“Took two trips here on the same day to sample something for brunch and for lunch. For starters, the place is pretty big despite how the place looks from the entrance. The people working behind the counter were pretty cool, service was on point. For breakfast I had the Nutella Custard Croffle and a can of Celsius. The croffle was delightful for sure, pleasing to the taste buds though one small complaint...I don't think croffles are a good base for any sandwich because it was messy eating that, the croffle was kinda all over the place eating it.

Came back here for lunch after a few hours in the gym to order a Mocha Haze Power Smoothie and a Smoked Turkey Croffle. Croffle sandwiches here are delicious as a whole but they are very unstable and can leave a mess so as a note, ALWAYS ask for extra napkins. The smoothie was very good and filling too. I could see myself coming around here a couple more times, trying out as much of their expansive menu as I possibly could.“

“OMG!! The bartender Wahid was so amazing all of my drinks was perfect he made them to perfection, him and Diogo made a great team making sure if I’m comfortable and needed anything else I will surely be be back here again to experience both of them“

“super sweet staff and great lattes! while I hung out to do work, I noticed everyone behind the counter was friendly and chatted with literally everyone who came in. great vibes, comfy seating for hanging for a bit. would love to gatekeep this place to keep it chill and quiet, but they deserve the review more! highly recommend ♥️“

“Turboboost to become really happy!“

“enjoyed my Sunday morning with relishing brunch!“

“You should come here because they have speciality coffee and drinks, and stay for the vibes and culture. Love the concepts like the "coquito latte" and the whole attention to detail from the paintings and murals on the wall to the stoned floor and the domino table that sits in the middle of it all.“

“Came here 2 times. First time I ordered a latte and it was a 15 minutes wait. The latte tasted okay. The second time I ordered the light Cuban panini. The panini tasted very good. Didn’t need to wait long due to calling ahead 15 minutes. I wished they gave an extra packet of hot sauce. Overall, highly recommend the food!“

“My go-to everyday 4 days a week! I love it here. The coffee is always fresh and well-made and so are the sandwiches. My go-to's are the avocado toast, the hummus veg sandwich and the chicken milanese sandwich. So so good. The workers are so nice and they always remember you, having your drink ready.
Thank you guys so much.“

“The chef here knows how to use spices just right. The staff offered prompt assistance with respectful and helpful attitudes. The restaurant occupies a convenient position. Each taste melted instantly as I tried to make it last forever. This restaurant gets my support.“

“good food the most amazing jerk chicken and the best drinks“

“mi piace tanto il vostro posto,e veramente un piccolo parte della nostra Italia mandato qui a new York, grazie ragazzi 👌🥂“

“Aussie here.
Enya’s flat white was the best I’ve had outside of bondi! Lex the General Manager is super attentive and welcoming. Food is fantastic. I’ve been in New York for a week, come here everyday for breakfast. Cannot recommend highly enough“
