I love Elm Roastery, it's everything you want out of your local cafe shop. It's moody but still bright enough for group chats. Elm Roastery is popular so seating can get limited during busy hours. The service is always great, always kind and helpful. The drinks and pastries provided are so good, never misses.

I wanted something not too sweet but refreshing to break up my food tour in Elmhurst, and their blueberry spritz hit the spot. It wasn't very spritzy but it was nicely brewed and even came with some fresh blueberries.

Nice coffee shop in Elmhurst with quality coffee. The people that work there are nice. This coffee shop gives community. They sell art and crafts people make in the community. They have a wall just for them. Now the coffee, the coffee is usually very good. They put care into making their coffee. My go to is the lavender latte when it's available. It's beautiful. I also like that they offer limited brews from different countries. It's nice to try something different sometimes. I always stop by when I'm in Elmhurst.

Matcha Pina Colada

As much as I (and pretty much every New Yorker) agree that we don't need another coffee shop every 2 blocks, this seems to be the case with bakeries in Elmhurst, but not dedicated coffee shops (unless you count Starbucks lol). Coffee shop during the day, quiet bar at night. Good coffee, matcha, and cocktails--what a gem of a spot to find yourself in, no matter what hours of the day. Elm Roastery has demonstrated how a business should give back to the community. They utilize their space for good and host a lot of social gatherings and community events, which is not all that common in this area...unless you dig for it. I've been here more than I can count and have tried pretty much most of their menu and I have never been disappointed. They get very creative with their seasonal drinks, which is always exciting. Lots of experimentation (which I get may not be for everyone) and varieties with matcha. I absolutely love going to this place when they get into holiday season mode--tree is up, and holiday specials are out, and they have the coziest environment during after-hours. Also worth noting that they sell handmade crafts that are sourced from local artists, like as greeting cards, accessories, and jewelry, which makes you want to support a business like this even more. I will say that their drink prices aren't really geared towards grab-and-go people who buy coffee every day out of necessity, and taste/quality is not a priority, but rather for people who want to appreciate craft coffee and matcha. Asian-owned (Filipino, I believe since my friend pointed out that they have hard-to-find Filipino pastries).

Lotus Latte
Lily L.

Cute little cafe to get some work done as well as grab a bite. The service is very fast and the baristas are very polite. The food itself is also simple but delicious and the coffee is definitely worth stopping by for. They also have decaf options for those who just like the coffee flavor but don't want to be jumping off the walls after. They also have a good variety of sweet treats as well, definitely worth a visit if you are in the Elmhurst area.

Egg sandwich
Taylor W.

We got the seasonal gingerbread matcha latte, iced lavender matcha latte, chili chicken toast, egg sandwich. The gingerbread matcha had a beautiful cinnamon aroma and a strong matcha taste filled with aromatic spices. The iced lavender matcha latte was also pretty solid and I could really taste the hints of the lavender syrup. I'm curious about their coffee options given how good their matcha was. The egg sandwich is phenomenal with its cheesy, creamy goodness. The chili chicken toast was not bad but needed more chili for my preferences. They also have avocado toast, which I didn't try but looked good. This place has a lot of seating options from table seats to counter. Some places are designated social zones so no laptops. They also have games available to encourage people to interact. I was very impressed with their efforts in making an open and welcoming environment for friends to hangout.

Banana matcha
Cairo R.

I love supporting a local business and it's so coo to see a new, hip, modern place pop up in an area with a lot of more traditional businesses around. Staff is friendly. Food can be a little pricey but drinks are more affordable. I ordered the banana matcha and loved it. This place also turns into a bar after hours on Thursday, Friday and Saturday which is awesome if you live down the street and want to go out without going to the city and want to stay local.

Iced cappuccino
Aaron Y.

Iced cappuccino is good Vibes are also nice, well maintained interior Service was also quick Highly recommend coming for a chill coffee spot

Iced Strawberry Matcha (~$8)
Aya E.

Ordered: Iced Strawberry Matcha (~$8) Aya's take: Elm Roastery is already pretty popular and I can see why. Every seat was taken around 2pm on a Sunday. The drinks are made with skill and intention, they have a wide variety on their menu, and they have a great aesthetic! What's not to like? The Iced Strawberry Matcha was vibrant and bright from the strawberry and earthy and slightly bitter from the matcha. Those flavors combined to make a great drink that was also creamy and balanced. It was very pleasant to sip on and gave me a small caffeine kick. ~$8 it was a bit much but the quality was there. Solid try and would definitely come back when I'm in the area!

Inside

Pulled up to Elm Roastery Cafe in Elmhurst like I was just grabbing a quick coffee... walked out feeling cultured, productive, and emotionally supported This place is fancy but not trying too hard. Artisan coffee that tastes like it went to school, but priced like it still lives in Queens. Cozy, clean, plenty of seating (yes, even in the back), and somehow there's always a spot--perfect for working, meetings, or pretending you're working while eating pastries. Now let's talk damage: * Teddy Bear Financier -- a teddy bear-shaped almond cake with chocolate accents. Cute? Yes. Manly? Surprisingly. Delicious? Absolutely undefeated. * Ham & cheese croissant -- baked fresh daily, buttery, classic, zero notes. * Beef empanada -- straight home run. No debate. * Cold brew -- fresh, smooth, flavorful, and didn't bully my stomach. Staff? Super kind, helpful, and actually happy to be there. Bathrooms? Clean enough to trust. Atmosphere? Warm, inviting, neighborhood gold. Elm Roastery is a major win for Queens. Come to work, come to chill, come to eat a teddy bear pastry and question your masculinity for 2 seconds before ordering another one. 83-30A Broadway, Elmhurst, Queens Support good coffee. Support good vibes.

My perfect cappuccino!
Steffanie G.

Such a hidden gem in Queens! The coffee is always smooth, rich, and clearly made with care you can tell they take their roasting seriously. I've tried both their drip and espresso-based drinks, and everything has been consistently top quality. The vibe is cozy and calm perfect for getting some work done, reading a book, or just enjoying a quiet moment. The baristas are super friendly and welcoming, and I always feel at ease when I walk in. They make you feel like a regular, even if it's your first time. Bonus points for the pastries!! fresh, not overly sweet and the perfect companion to your cup. If you're a coffee lover in Queens, you need to check this place out!

Vivian K.

I like the construction is unique and darker color but place is comfortably bright. The ambience warm and the place always maintains comfortable temperature. The drink are a little pricey but decent. I am able to complete some work here with at least 2 charging ports around. Hours are great and bathroom is clean. Not bad for a working and waiting area. Always people here but always have seats. Very decent.

Ube Latte
Gab G.

Stopped in on a weekend at around 1:30 PM and the place was packed, but I was able to grab a seat the coffee bar. I ordered an iced ube oat milk latte; it didn't come with coffee so I added a shot of espresso. It was good but not sure it was worth the price ($9.50 with the alternative milk, espresso and tip).

Okay, because a Pumpkin Biscoff Latte SERVED IN AN ACTUAL PUMPKIN?! I mean, come onnn! The…read morepresentation alone deserves a moment! Beyond the adorable seasonal touch, the staff were genuinely so sweet and attentive. They went the extra mile by bringing our food directly to our table instead of simply calling it out, and they consistently checked in on my cousin and me to make sure we were taken care of. That kind of hospitality really makes a difference! My only little note: as a HUGE Biscoff lover, I would've loved a bit more Biscoff flavor in my latte! However, I understand that the pumpkin is the star of the show here. Overall, such a lovely experience, great customer service, and a fun seasonal drink that made the visit even more special. I'll definitely be back! Okay, because a Pumpkin Biscoff Latte SERVED IN AN ACTUAL PUMPKIN?! I mean, come onnn! The presentation alone deserves a moment!

We…read moredefinitely got different kinds of pastries and hot drinks to share together and it was beyond amazing and delicious. The service there was also attentive and very fast. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time.
