Love that it is spacious and has many seating options from ornate couches to smaller circular metal/ wood stools. Their chai is so yummy and strong, I recommend getting it with cinnamon. Also enjoyed the ham and cheese croissant which was pretty decadent because the dough tasted more like challah. Baristas are so nice as well. Great place for going out to do work with plenty of chargers and WiFi, or just to stop by and pick up a drink/ food. Only downside is I can't get pictures of anything here because the food and drink are too good and I'm too locked in working.

The inside makes you feel like you're in your own den or living room. The staff is great and makes everything to perfection. I put this place right up there with Gregory's and Southdown Coffee. The banana bread stuffed with Nutella slightly warmed is a great halftime show. The Americano was made perfectly and so was the Cortado. I drove 30 miles and I have no regrets Long live Ground Central and long live Mike M a regular customer who recommended this high end coffee cafe

My Greek husband just got back from Greece and was really craving a proper Greek pastry. Since we…read moredon't live in Astoria anymore, it's been tough finding authentic Greek spots out on Long Island! I found this spot while looking online and we decided to go check it out. VIBES The inside definitely gives that classic Greek vibe with the white and blue decor. They have a beautifully decorated outside and I really enjoyed the autumn seasonal decor with the pumpkins. The inside was really clean and had some seating as tables and as a bar by the window. SERVICE The ladies working behind the counter were very nice. They patiently answered all my husband's questions about what was available, and even though what he was looking for wasn't there they helped find the most similar items that they did have! FOOD My husband was on the hunt for a very specific type of semolina orange cake. They didn't have that particular one, but directed is to different type of orange pie/cake type pastry instead, and it was quite good! They have a plethora of traditional Greek pastry options to choose from, in addition to some more standard American choices. My husband is also now completely addicted to Greek freddo espressos, which is what everyone in Greece is drinking these days, so it was a huge plus that they had that available as well! I wasn't that hungry when we went but I'd love to go back and try their spanakopita some time! Overall, we were really happy to find this spot on the island. It's Greek husband approved!

I was introduced to Blue Mountain coffee after vacationing in Jamaica. The locals add sweetened…read morecondensed milk in place of sugar, it's so rich in flavor. I've been smitten ever since. The prices for tourist were outrageous in Jamaica so upon my returned, I began looking into reputable coffee vendors. I'm officially a self professed coffee connoisseur (nose in the air, pinky finger outstretched). Lol After some research, I discovered Gold Star Coffee had rave reviews and offered Keurig K-cups of Blue Mountain and Hawaiian Kona. Gold Star Coffee is always well packaged, clips included to maintain freshness and Blue Mountain has the seal of authenticity. The coffee flavor is A1! Price 4/5 I haven't found other vendors to be as reasonable given the quality. And I am a little thrifty. 40 K-Cups for $63.00 80 K-cups for $115 for half and half Kona/ JBM They've include complimentary bags of Premium coffee on my larger orders, free shipping over $60 and delivery has been within a week's time with tracking updates. I absolutely love the vendor, I'm so glad to have found it. Coffee is premium minus other brands that offer blends which minimize the quality. I discovered there was a New York storefront which has since closed however ordering online is efficient and convenient. If you want to start your day off right, begin with Gold Star Coffee!!!!!

My order included the bonus coffee AND the most amazing Black Friday extra gifts! Amazing customer service!

It's very small from the outside, I must have passed this store hundreds of times without realizing it's right there.

I remember this spot being a horrible red neck bar with rude bartenders and disgusting service…read more Not anymore. Awesome neighborhood spot. Came here on Saturday night after a Dru Hill concert in Jersey that ended early (around 9:30am), and since I had a babysitter for the night, I begged my husband to take me someplace for a quick drink since we live in Valley Stream. We got there around 10:15 and stayed until midnight. Paid a $20 entry fee for hubby (they said it was a special R&B night). That annoyed me since again, it's a neighborhood spot. Once we were in there though, the music DEFINITELY made it worth it. I was jammin. The DJ hit every song that made me stand up from my chair and dance. Beautiful, light skinned bartender (with a gap) gave us excellent, attentive service - even once it got crowded. The other beautiful, darker skinned bartender with a head scarf - not so much. That one pretty much ignored us the entire night and paid more attention to serving her friends at the bar. We ordered hookah with one guy and apparently he never put the order in because a table full of women who came in after us got their hookah before us. Once I saw that, I told my husband to cancel ours, which he did. Then a younger gentlemen who was handling the hookah walked by and I complained to him about making a table full of women priority over a couple who was there 20mins before them. He was actually very apologetic and offered to make our hookah asap. We accepted and it was great. Definitely got a buzz. Get the mango and mint. We ordered wings and they never came. Bathroom was super clean. Crowd was mixed with early 30's to late 40's - which was perfect since I'm 41. Don't bother with the fruit punch they have at the bar - they make it straight and offer to mix it with whatever alcohol you want, but it's extremely bland and looks MUCH better than it tastes. Most importantly - I felt safe. We'll definitely be back when we have another mommy/daddy date.
