Cafe mocha (small)
Richard H.

Great local coffee shop, near JFK airport. Relaxing place to enjoy your espresso drink, hot tea, and pastries. Spacious seating area to check emails before you start your day.

Super cute neighborhood coffee shop and cafe. I kept it simple with an iced coffee. Love that this place is connected to a church and seems to be a community favorite! While there, I witnessed customers ordering take out, dine in, coffee, pastries and an assortment of the aforementioned. It's also within walking distance to several other eateries. Love the concept. Appreciate the service!

Cinnabon Cream Latte

cute little spot, loved the vibes and decor. Latte was also pretty good, and the toppings were a great touch

I happened to pass by this cafe on Saturday and did a U-turn to stop in. It was huge and I've never seen it before (well I don't frequent Rockaway blvd so I guess that's why ℓoℓ). Anyway, the decor is too cute, it's clean. And after speaking to the staff they say that all proceeds go to fighting injustices of the world. Let's get to the goodies tho. I got a snickerdoodle oatmilk latte o it was DELICIOUS. I got 2 birthday macaroons & a creme brulee which was also good. Everything I had was great and would certainly go back.

Eggs N' Toast

Must try coffee shop on Rockaway. Vast menu with delicious drinks and food. Ample setting which is good as you can sit and enjoy your purchase. Only issue the day I visited is that they seemed short staffed. The very helpful cashier was also cleaning the tables and sometimes serving but through it all she was still pleasant which was great!

Very comfy and convenient. Food was fresh, hot and tasted like it was made with love. Can't ask for more than that! Coffee was 10/10 flavorful and rich. Service was premium, smiles all around and really felt like we were welcomed. Chai was a tad on the sweeter side but still had a spice bite to it.

i got The Big B.E.A.C.H Wafflewich + Nutella Latte :)

Great cafe to come and work. I was able to plug my laptop in, eat breakfast, drink some tea and have my virtual meetings in peace. The staff is very pleasant and accommodating. The food is delicious . They recommended the waffles and it indeed was yummy. I hate the Caramel Oreo frappe- taste sooooo good! Very comfortable place to sit in. I highly recommend.

Always a go to for good breakfast and amazing coffee and drinks

Always hits the spot ! You can't ever compare them to any other coffee cafe ! YOU MUST TRY YOY WONT REGRET IT. I have come here over a handful of times and I never can complain they be creating magic with all the flavors like red velvet, pistachio, and Nutella ?! AGAIN MUST TRY ! And the breakfast is delicious and cute and super filling !

Vanilla latte
Erica A.

One star for the decor and staff being friendly. The tables are cleans and the menu options are very inviting (different flavored lattes), however my food felt cold. Toast was not toasted and I ordered whole wheat toast and was given plain white bread what seemed soaked in butter. The eggs were not very good either. The vanilla latte was just okay, but did not feel super hot just warm.

Bacon, Egg and Cheese Sandwich
Faith M.

Bacon egg and cheese on a croissant, FIRE!! Good service. The lady was sweet. Definitely coming back. Cute chill spot as well.

Pure goodness!!! Caramel Kettle Corn Cream Latte

Good location in the right location as you enter/exit the 2nd floor of Jamaica train station…read more Service is pretty quick if you order at counter, and even easier if you order on Tim Hortons app, just go up to the pickup area and give your order number. Food selections are like other coffee shops with small sandwiches, simple to more elaborate mixed coffee/tea/refresher type beverages. Regardless of what you pick i can say it definitely tastes as described, hot or cold. On the food front I'm a fan of their soft fresh donuts and cookies, rarely disappointed. This location has wide concession section of pickup/togo snacks and beverages. Would highly recommend this quick and easy location to be in/out catching your trains timely with something in hand.

This large kiosk-like location of this Canadian coffee chain offers coffee, breakfast, and baked goods. Breakfast sandwiches, lunch sandwiches, and donuts of course which they are well known for. Hot and cold beverages too. Friendly service and the line moved quickly. Iced coffee was nice for the subway ride home.

So there was a private event there recently which I was part of…read more I have been there for a coffee but not for a private event and it was nice! It's easily accessible right by the subway and the LIRR is very close by. Since it was private they ordered their food which was mostly pastries with various flavors/toppings. I wanted savory since it was dinner time so I opted for I think a red pepper pastry which was yummy! My friend actually bought their pastries. One was a mango dessert with white chocolate outer shell and mango mousse. It was good but a bit sweet due to white chocolate and the cream inside was rich and creamy mango flavored. I am watching my sugar intake so just had a bite to try. The other was a pistachio Dubai mousse and oh my! It was amazing! I definitely am returning for this. Also they served chai which I tried a little. And tea but I was afraid to try the tea bc I am very sensitive to caffeine which causes me to have a hard time falling asleep so I opted out. Private event but service wasn't bad. Just wondered why there wasn't water for the guests if they couldn't drink tea/chai.

I like coming here always friendly staff helpful and kind, the establishment clean…read more I ordered my usal Hibiscus ice tea. I noticed they now have kiosk to order ahead and the have fruit shape pastries and they serve breakfast from 7a-11:45a. Always a pleasure coming here.

This is a hole in the wall DD spot. I've walked by this place a few times and finally decided to…read morecheck it out. It can be very busy really fast. The day I went in there was only 1 person working (and it seems like this might always be the case since it is a small DD). If there's 3 persons in there be prepared to wait a little. Even though it's small, they do have a seating area but it was messy (don't forget it seems like there was only 1 person working there). They have a window where you can order out from and that might be faster and less cramped.

I've put up with this location for so long but at this point, I've made my last visit here. It's a…read moreshame because I never have no issues with food preparation here. Even the dunkalette I ordered here is especially good. The reason this place is getting a 1 star from me is that the service is absolute TRRAAASSSSHHHH!!! There are shady politicians in NYC that put more effort in their jobs than the workers in this place. My gripe about this place needs its own paragraph. This place has a reputation for lackluster service, the prior reviews here show I'm not alone in my discontent BUT this time is by far the most egregious offense. I've made my order on the Dunkin' app, which is by far one of the better made apps for quick service restaurants, it is surprisingly good and very rewarding...back to the story, whenever I make an order on the app, I at least give the place a 10 minute grace period, more than enough time for my stuff to already be made by the time I get there because I understand that there will be slight delays because the place has a drive thru as well but I just ordered one item so, rather easy for them to get it done. However by the time I get there, my dunkalette was nowhere in sight despite me giving them 11 minutes to complete one order. STRIKE 1! I get the attention of the server there who doesn't even recognize the order despite the order being completed on the app on that location and being on the computer behind him. STRIKE 2! The server, despite having acknowledged my order at this point, partially set up my order only for him to stop halfway and serve other people, even completing an order of someone who got here after me but got his before I did. Someone else had to finish the order I made on the app SEVERAL MINUTES AGO! STRIKE 3! I'M DONE! Wow I had a lot to say on this one but I needed to vent. This place has the potential to be a 3.5 at the least but is stuck under 2 stars because of the PITIFUL, GARBAGE, LOW EFFORT, DISGRACEFUL, LAME, BOTTOM SHELF service this place doles out just because they're the only Dunkin within miles with a drive thru. I've seen Postal Workers with more enthusiasm for their jobs than the people who do business here and it's just sad. If there was a Starbucks, Tim Hortons or even an indie coffee shop nearby, that place wouldn't be so damn lazy. I've literally had it with this spot.

The exposed brick, greenery and neon "Let's Do Brunch" sign give it a fun vibe and make for some great pictures. It was quite busy when we were there, which wasn't surprising given its popularity. Our server, Syriah, was very good. She was friendly, attentive, made recommendations from the menu and even took our group photo for us -- and got a good one! We really appreciated her service. The food was good, although I wouldn't say it was exceptional. I've had better brunch food at other spots, but everything I had was enjoyable and nicely presented. I tried the mimosa flight, which was definitely fun and Instagram-worthy. The drinks were a little sweeter than I personally prefer, but Tropical Sunset was my favorite of the flight. And I have to mention the funniest part of the whole experience: before brunch, my Sorority sister kept texting me, "Let's do brunch." I kept responding, "Okay, WHERE?" She finally had to explain that LET'S DO BRUNCH was the name of the restaurant! So the place had us laughing before we even arrived. Overall, it's a cute, lively neighborhood spot with good food, fun drinks and very good service. I'd definitely recommend it for a casual girls' brunch or get-together -- just expect a crowd because apparently everybody else has decided to "Let's Do Brunch" too.
