I stumbled upon this wonderful cafe last week and was very impressed by how massive and spacious it is! It really is the perfect work from home cafe location as nearly each section of tables had it's own outlets! I didn't get any food and only stuck to a black coffee, but I must say, it was quite hot and rather strong (two qualities which I NEED from my coffee). I never felt rushed nor distracted by fellow mobile-office-mates, though it was a great place to people watch. There were meetings happening, dates, zoom interviews, you name it. Will I be back? Most certainly! read more

Very expensive. However a very nice place to cool down after missing a ferry and waiting for the next one. 2 affogatos and a pastry was close to $40. Live music was a nice touch. read more

Ordered: 12oz Iced Lavender Matcha (~$6): with oat milk (+75¢) Aya's take: Not many cafes in the area so I found myself at Dagny. Only the grab and go portion was open when I went around 11am on a Saturday. It seems like a decent spot to study or work from if their seating area is open. I'm a sucker for lavender so this Iced Lavender Matcha immediately caught my eye. It was good but nothing out of the ordinary. It was really floral, creamy, lightly sweet, and gave me that mild caffeine kick I wanted. Good try! read more

Lots of seating! Plenty of outlets! They have wifi! I love this cafe for working! There is so much space and it's literally the perfect working cafe! We got the lavender matcha with oat milk! The staff was kind enough to make it less sweet for us and even gave us the option to add more sweetener if it the sweetness level was too low. I will definitely be coming back in the future! read more

Came here for brunch on the weekend and the first thing you noticed is how chic and modern the designs are! There's a cafe part where you can order to go and there's seating for just the cafe part. There's also a brunch section where you wait to get seated and the servers are super friendly and attentive to anything you need! We enjoyed our avocado toast and breakfast burrito and my partner got a cappuccino which was perfection! We really enjoyed coming here and plan to come back again! Great place to meet up with someone or just come on your own and get some work done! read more

DAGNY is marketing itself as Astoria's only waterfront cafe, and they are somewhat correct. The only minor issue is that they are around the corner and part of a new mixed use condo that popped up along Vernon Boulevard. Inside are an array of special mixed-use tables and chairs, a quick pick up, a takeout spot with cold beverages, and further back, a large dining area which is very spacious with lots of seats.large-screen DAGNY reminds me of one of those restaurants you find in a large hotel with a large screen TV, wine bar, and professional waiters all dressed up. In terms of food, I ordered their specialty burger and can honestly say it was decent, not excellent. DAGNY is a little expensive, as you would imagine, so was the burger worth it? Probably not. As an entertainment center for those who like to drink beer and wine, it might have got a better rating from me. Would I recommend it? No, for dining out. For social gatherings, yes. Will I be back? That depends on the event being organized. read more

Awful place. Weird lady at the front kept making faces at me from the start and was constantly staring at me. Told me at 1:30 pm on a Sunday that they close at 3 and that the kitchen is closed when everywhere on their socials they say they're open and serving till least 4:30 on a Sunday. Lmfao what a joke of place and the guy who made my mediocre drink was unsanitary and touching their lips and face constantly while handling food and drinks. Racist and lousy! read more

Ambiance is chill and cozy. Service was good, staff was friendly and helpful. You pick up your order from the counter if you dine in. Coffee tasted rich and was made to my liking. I got the macchiato and my partner got the cappuccino. Wish I could try the almond croissants, but they were out of them when I went. read more

Dagny is one of the few cafes on the western side of Astoria near Socrates Park. While I've only been to the takeout side, the cafe space looks spacious and beautiful, and they also host events like live music and movie nights. They are plenty of tables outside so it's nice spot to walk your dog, grab a drink, and then chill outside. The door might be a bit hard to find as it's right next to the Astoria West building entrance. At the coffee counter, the drinks are pretty standard cafe offerings. My go-to is an iced strawberry matcha, which is matcha with a bit of strawberry syrup at the bottom. There are also some pastries such as croissants and lemon loaves. read more

The ambiance here is really optimal and spacious for getting a little bit of work done. It's a coffee shop and cafe during the day and a bar at night. Definitely a gem of space compared to other coffee shops further down Broadway and Steinway - those will have competition for seats while this space will always have a table, couch space, or seat open. The waiters are attentive and kind, plus they'll deliver food to your seat if you dine in. Also their wifi is pretty speedy so I highly recommend that. Definitely a great space to basically cowork for a few hours of the day and get some delicious food. I got the elote salad which is a lot of corn ... But I LOVE corn and it came out fresh and hot which was perfect. One thing is I do wish there was maybe one other non caffeinated drink option - I think the hibiscus lemongrass drink is the only one that is the closest to having no caffeine. They do also have hot cocoa, though that can be pretty sweet for an afternoon. In the evening the bar vs cafe vibe might have you preferring not to use it as a study space at 10pm but to grab a drink instead. If you're pulling some midnight hours there isn't too much in the area, but this is the latest open place I know of in astoria that has a chill vibe, good space to study, and pretty consistent food and service. read more

Dagny - Vanilla matcha (if they're out of lavender they have other flavors!) and elote salad - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Astoria, New York

Ordered a lavender matcha latte. Taking off two stars because the cashier really wasn't listening and the taste. I specifically asked for a small hot lavender matcha. He placed a cold order which I called out for adjustment, and the drink still ended up coming out cold, which they did remake. I also ordered a small and he put an order for large and I was trying to tell him that I wanted a small but i don't think that message was getting through so I gave up (ended up costing $1 more). The drink tasted pretty bad and I threw more than half of it out bc I couldn't force myself to drink anymore of it . Don't recommend. read more

This place is pretty and has outdoor seating but I will not return for an espresso drink. The croissants look nice but I didn't opt for one in the morning. I ordered a latte but it came out pretty foamy. My "latte" was scorching hot and totally missed the mark. read more

Dagny - Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Astoria, New York

Pros: The view is great, there is a lot of comfortable seating, and a lot of outlets. Cons: The service sucks and the food/drinks are okay. I ordered for the ham & cheese croissant with the gentleman at the counter and it came out completely cold. I asked him to warm up again and it was still cold. The only reason I'm not giving it a 2nd star is due to the recovery: I asked another barista to warm it up again and showed her the cold cheese. She let me know that it may burn the croissant a little and asked if that was okay with me. I appreciated her informing me and she made sure that I was happy with it before I went back to my table. It wasn't super melty but at that point I was starving. read more

The coffee was delicious. I ordered a lavender cappuccino and wish I had got a bigger size. Will return to try the pastry. Dagny is cozy and it's the perfect spot to bring a book and read or get some work done read more

Came here for a birthday brunch and it was the perfect spot! We went on a Saturday morning and it was very chill (not empty but plenty of available tables). The view of the water was also great! The avocado toast was amazing as was the lavender matcha and cocktail ordered. The service was excellent as well. There is also a a coffee bar in a separate area you grab a to-go coffee at which is nice. read more

Great baristas, spacious and good space to hang out. Clean tables, quick service. Great deal on croissant breakfast sandwiches as well. The coffee is solid. Nothing to write home about but I've never had a bad beverage here. Some of the specialty options are nice, and there's a nice selection of syrups for sweeter beverages for those who prefer them. It's also unpretentious which I appreciate. read more

Aesthetic is gorgeous, clean space, comfortable seating . Several charging points throughout the place . The food was ok, for starters we enjoyed tea and pastries as we arrived too late for lunch service, for dinner service which began @5:30 we only had the Cesar salads, we asked to add in protein understanding a possible charge was present however they refused and said it wasn't allowed despite them having entres with protein on their menu . The service was slow, poor, lacked quality . We had to ask several times for service . While it's a nice place to work at. I'm not sure I'd wanna return this is just a cute place to work . read more

Love this place. Ambience, food and fantastic sitting areas. I do my WFH here. Only thing is one time I was praying / meditating , and the server got in my face to take my order. I guess they aggressively want a tip but she got zero from me that day. Go though. No place is perfect. read more

If you're looking for a chill, loungey vibe to grab any type of drink, this is the place for you! Stumbled upon here with friends and instantly loved it. We were so excited to find a place with comfortable seating, great music, cozy ambiance, and a good sized menu. Added bonus is a view of the water! I highly recommend the truffle mashed potatoes! So flavorful and satisfying. The staff is also attentive and friendly, which is an added plus! Highly recommend if you're in this area :) read more

Please note that this is a *drinks*-focused review, so I can't speak to the quality of food here! The 7 laudatory reviews for this place piqued my curiosity, so my BF and I walked over for a good drink on a chilly night. I tried one of the tea-infused cocktails (Reset Button) and my BF, who is admittedly a drink snob :D, got a Paloma. We weren't expecting necessarily Dutch Kills-type craft cocktails, but unfortunately, both of these drinks missed the mark. The Paloma tasted off...my BF said it tasted like they skimped on the tequila, and even I found it to be barely passable. It came with a lime garnish but you could tell they used an old lime! It also came in a tin container, kind of Moscow mule style...Palomas are supposed to be served in a highball glass though. That last part is a pretty minor detail, but I suppose it only drove home the idea that they weren't thoughtful about presentation. The Reset Button I got was ok, but it tasted a little too syrupy for me or like the ratio of spices to alcohol was off. Aesthetically, it's a nice space (although my BF and I always find the one squeaky table ). The lighting is a little too bright for a romantic date night spot, IMO. There are huge glass windows with views of the water, so I think this would be better as a daytime "work with your laptop" spot while having a coffee, or maybe a brunch/lunch spot. I'm willing to try again, but this is not the place I would come for drinks! read more

Beautiful new bar, cafe, and lounge space with amazing views of the waterfront! There's even a small market with packaged foods. This is a great place for any outing, whether it be grabbing a drink or a meal with friends, quietly getting some work done with coffee, or holding a work meeting in their conference room. The green tea margarita ($15) is absolutely a must-try. So delicious, perfectly sweet, and deceptively strong! All of the dishes were amazing as well. The super grain bowl ($15) was packed with texture. The cavatelli ($18) was fresh and cooked perfectly. The braised beef short ribs ($24) were my favorite, SO tender that the meat fell apart, and the sauce was perfect on the mashed potatoes! read more

Had the soup, grill cheese. Food was really good and was very relaxing. Would definitely go back

The decor is lovely and they have good options of food and drink but the server was very rude.

Cozy, warm and welcoming ambiance. Staff is friendly and helpful. My go to is an iced matcha. I also really enjoyed their breakfast burrito. For dinner I recently tried their salmon & it was delicious. Def recommend! read more

A very eclectic vibe and you almost forget that you are in Astoria,Queens. It feels like you're in SOHO. The space has great Decor, ambiance and a perfect view of the skyline.

This is the WORST cafe I have ever been to. I came here after visiting the Noguchi Musuem and should of just gone to Dunkin Donuts instead. When my friend and I walked in, there were 2 servers just standing there. After an awkward 5 minutes I asked the person behind the counter if we need to wait to be seated or if we could sit anywhere. They said anywhere. Then we waited, and waited, and waited...I finally went to the counter and asked if there was table service or if we had to order at the counter. His response was "oh yeah I'm suppose to come to you but I didn't" ...okkkkkkkkk so after another 15 minutes, he comes over with no menus and asks if we know what we want. Obviously we don't bc we don't have menus. I then asked if the online menu is the same and he says "I don't know". I asked him if he has non-dairy milk, and he says "I don't know". WTF?! I then asks he if knows anything and he just looks at me. I ended up going to the front and waiting on the line for the to-go orders. The cashier there was nice. This guy should not be a server or deal with customers. He doesn't know ANYTHING. And yes, they do have non-dairy milk, almond and oat! Even I know that! read more

Went yesterday to hopefully have a chill time with wife and friends in the afternoon to find out they now close at 3pm until the foreseeable future. Huge bummer. We live in the neighborhood and we had been gone for the holidays so we were surprised to see on our way back from a day in midtown that it was there and the vibes looked nice so we were excited to have a nice little spot to go to on this side of the neighborhood for drinks and light dinner bites. I really hope they open up the dinner hours again as I was really excited to go there and bring friends over. As for the stars... i guess ill give it 2 since i got there after three so i didnt get to experience it just yet. Not a coffee drinker so I'll be back when its open past 3pm. read more

great coffee and pastries! ambiance was relaxing. My favorite morning spot in Astoria

Good drinks and amazing ambience. Love the seating options. The view is really good too.

We hosted a private party at DAGNY for my birthday. Over 25 people. The staff was caring and attentive. The food was delicious, presented beautifully, and the pasta dishes came to the buffet table steaming hot. I can't say enough about how hard the staff worked to make this party perfect and unforgettable. This place is a very special addition to the Astoria waterfront. Whoever hires the staff here manages to find the kindest people who work hard to be sure every customer has a great experience. I highly recommend using DAGNY for a special event. read more

The place has GREAT potential and would definitely be a regular pit stop in and out of Socrates park or even better: the perfect cocktail lounge in my neighborhood... Unfortunately the hours of Operation & the services need to be updated to reflect what is actually available. So far: I sampled the tea selection and caffeinated drinks only and they are correct...Staff was professional on both occasions and explained the lunch and dinner services should be back in a couple of weeks. read more

Would not come again. The service I received from Maria was simply unprofessional. She tried pressuring me to buy the dessert when I let her know I was on a budget. On top of that, some of the worst coffee ive had the experience of trying. TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE. read more

Great new spot. Food was fantastic and went beyond expectations. Tea-infused cocktails great and hope they expand the cocktail list with some additional strong/interesting options (have other options, but straight-forward) Really great and comfortable space with great view of the city. While understand that during the day this likely wants to cater more towards people working, once the sun goes down, especially in back area with view of city skyline, I think dimming the lights, playing music (maybe even live if possible?) and muting TVs would be a nice touch that would draw more people seeking a cozy date night scene. Will be back and hope you guys consider the above recommendations as really enjoyed our visit and think could be even better with some small changes! read more
