To celebrate his birthday, my son chose here for us to have Sunday Brunch…read more Reservations are not required but I'm glad I made them. It's a small place with brightly colored decor. After being seated by the hostess and handed menus, she explained to us how to order. We make our selections then go up to the counter and order our meals. The gentleman who took our order was friendly. You're given a number to display on your table and the meal and drinks are brought to you. My son had a Rum Rock Punch and The TEA. I ordered a Margarita Flight (choice of four) and the Shrimp and Grits. The food was fresh and flavorful, both of us throughly enjoyed our meals. The drinks were also good. The drinks in the flight were not labeled. I wish they had been. The food, drinks and service surrounded by festive decor made for a wonderful brunch experience. We will definitely be returning......

I had a really nice breakfast at East Rock Coffee. The atmosphere was adorned with Valentine's…read moredecorations, creating a cutesy vibe that was exactly what we wanted. The staff was welcoming and sat us down promptly. I ordered a special item being promoted for February, the Red Velvet Waffles. I can't say it tasted exactly like red velvet; it had more of a mixed berry sort of taste, but it was good nonetheless, especially with the side of sausage and fresh fruit. (It tasted even better the next day after being reheated in the oven.) The real star of our visit was the Shrimp and Grits. It was well-seasoned and had a great consistency. I would definitely order either of these meals again. Looking forward to returning to try more items off their menu.

I've been a fan of TFW since the opening of their Bayside location, and i absolutely love the…read morelocation here at Garden City. Their pastries are top notch, both in ingredient and aesthetics, but beyond that I am most impressed with the customer service at this location. They stand behind excellence and ensure customer satisfaction, and it shows in their demeanor and action when something is not 100% up to par. If you're looking for something delicious and beautiful, or a piece of cake, tart, or mousse that will impress, this is your place! It's worth every penny!

I frequent The French Workshop and love everything they have to offer…read more Started with the one in Bayside. Then a closer location in garden city opened. And now an even closer location in Plainview! Pretty soon they're gonna open one right in my backyard or something haha. It is a lovely spot for authentic French-inspired pastries and coffee. I've had everything here including cupcakes, brownies, croissants, macarons, cookies, madelines, etc. I've also come here to get a small cake for special occasions. It is also a very nice place to come with friends and enjoy a coffee and pastries. The elegant, pristine interior with marble accents and beautiful displays creates a welcoming Parisian vibe. Perfect for a quick treat or relaxed sit-down. I love the cookies here, they're soft and chewy unlike the Plainview FWS I always leave with a giant bag of 5 of every different flavor of cookie(chocolate chip, nutella, oreo, pistachio, etc) because the texture is so soft and smooth. My new obsession is the fruits of the forest cake. So delicious! Its a must try!!! It gets packed in here, but the line moves quickly! If you haven't tried FWS yet, what are you waiting for?

Visit Date: January 20, 2026…read more I got the LI cafe passport book from my co-worker for Christmas. In January I got to go to two coffee shops in this book, for five was the second one. I went with one of my friends. We both had the mochas and I had a shot of espresso because the book recommended it. The espresso was good, not overly bitter, pretty much just right. The mocha was amazing a good ratio of chocolate, coffee and espresso. It was pretty busy here and the atmosphere was nice. The snacks looked really good maybe one day I'll go back for a pastry. I give for five five stars and five beans and would recommend coming here if you like coffee shops.

l've rarely encountered such a rude and unwelcoming barista…read more I ordered a pour-over, but when I tried to simply watch the brew process, the barista was incredibly cold and dismissive, essentially refusing to let me see what she was doing. The elitist attitude continued throughout the transaction; she couldn't be bothered to tell me which beans she was using, and once the coffee was finished, she didn't even acknowledge me or announce that the drink was ready. It's a shame when a shop's "gatekeeping" attitude ruins the experience. There is no excuse for treating customers with that much contempt. I won't be returning to a place that makes me feel like an inconvenience for ordering a coffee.

The store gets great lighting, with views of the mall across the street. They have convenience outlets by the window seats. Great for charging your laptops. The coffee is flavorful without being over powering. Brewed just right. We tried the Caramel Iced Latte and Matcha Latte. There wasn't a lot of interaction with the staff besides ordering but the guys were cool. Good coffee, cool setting and nice staff.

Their coffee was not as strong as what I'm used to and somehow tasted like chai (I guess because of the spices). They are not coffee was super hot and they put a sign up to warn us. But it was so hot that I could barely hold it in my hand. Maybe they could use a thicker cup sleeve? By the way if you dine in and order drinks, the drinks would actually come in a pot with a few glasses on the metal tray. So cute. Service was good. The staff was busy but was patient with the order. Cute decor. Felt very cozy there. There were quite a few large groups and some students studying. Got a few parking stalls at the back.

I literally stood there waiting for my change for several minutes as no other customers were in the store & they just walked away & never came back. I was going to call them out on it, but figured if they needed it that badly to steal it from me they can have it. I would have tipped them a couple of bucks anyway after they handed my order over, but since they pulled this stunt I chose to not give them anything more. They definitely lost a customer for life. I'm never returning as the place was nothing special. What completely ridiculous & unprofessional behavior.

I was excited to see there was a cafe on my route not too far away from Southern State Parkway…read more There was ample street parking, paid and free if you were willing to walk just a little. I liked that there was a huge sign on the door letting you know the establishment is cash-only. There were a lot of people in the cafe despite it being awkwardly late in the morning. I waited a bit and decided to order the Mandarin Earl Grey espresso tonic, which sounded really refreshing. The drinks were crafted pretty quickly considering there were two baristas making drinks and handling the register. I sat for a little bit (inside, though there were tables and seats outside). The baked goods, which seemed sourced from elsewhere, looked good, but I wished I had room for the egg tacos, which sounded delicious. My drink was summery and refreshing, the sweet citrus syrup complementing the smokiness of the espresso. The earl grey part was a little bit lost on me, though.

Sam was perfection from the start of the meal to the finish. She had the best vibes and attitude and wore the coolest looking Van's.

He said "yep no problem". They call my name and leave my drink at the pick up side of the booth. Iced matcha but no puree at all. I wait to speak to someone but they can't be bothered even though they see me standing there. The woman comes over, picks up my drink, and yells my name even though I'm standing 2 feet away. I say "yes that's me but". Too late she already walked away. I keep waiting and a man approaches so quickly I say "hi I asked for extra strawberry puree but I got none at all". He doesn't say anything, grabs my drink and throws it away. He brings a new drink but very little strawberry puree. I say "I'm sorry but can I please have some more strawberry puree". He rolls his eyes, sighs, and throws the drink in the garbage again and makes another. He tells the girl to bring me my drink because I guess he doesn't want to look at my face anymore? Honestly please don't treat me like you're doing me a huge favor. I'm a customer, I'm paying $8 for a drink, and I'm polite about it. You don't want to work there then please don't. So rude, definitely won't be back.
