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.

My black sesame latte was incredible. Tuna fish sandwich…read moredelectable. Quick service. All the sweets looked sooooooo good.

Nice cafe to pause, grab a coffee and converse with your significant other or friends. Decor is…read morebright and airy. Easy on the eyes and inviting. Ample window for street views. People watching activated. On to the coffee. We tried the Matcha latte and Iced Caramel latte. Paired them with a raspberry tart and brownie. Yum! Our order taker was super friendly and welcomed us with a smile and greeting. A+ on the customer service. She gets it.

Stopped for coffee after work. Luckily they weren't really busy yet so we were able to get a table…read morequickly. The decor is really nice. Pays homage to Yemen roots. 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.

Very cute cafe serving Yemeni coffee with friendly and welcoming service. We ordered Sana'ani and…read moreMafawar which were both medium roast and an iced Yemeni latte. 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'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?

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 wanting to come here for at least a year now, and I'm always nearby not even realizing…read morethat it's a block or two from the train station! It's a small cafe but they do have quite a selection. The lady who helped me out, I believe she may have been the owner, was very nice and told me about what they have to offer from coffees to sandwiches. I ordered a Dulce de leche iced latte with caramel drizzle and the drizzle definitely gave it that extra boost of flavor! I'll definitely be back here to try more items!

Stopped in for a quick latte. Ordered an Ube Latte. It was perfect and not too sweet. Just how I…read morelike it. The owner is very friendly and sweet. The space has some seating inside but nothing crazy. I would return to try more items.

Another amazing and fabulous time. My friend and I had at the Witches Brew…read more I ordered my usual Hummus and Pita Bread, Side Salad and Sleepy Hollow Tea, they have so many other varieties to choose from but this tea is my favorite for me and my taste buds. My friend ordered the Falafel Sandwich and a Irish Breakfast Tea. Besides the delicious food what else made this time at the Witches Brew extra special. Well it was our Waitress Sam. 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. Her customer service skills outshine many other waitstaff that I've encountered in the past month. Sam is another Great addition to the already amazing team the Witches Brew employs

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.

The food is delicious. I have been there when the service was great, and then one time we went as a…read morelast minute decision, I tried talking the other person to go to another place because I felt the shirt I was wearing was too casual as it was tye die. Sure enough that casual t-shirt earned dirty looks from the staff, we were seated in a corner where others really couldn't see us. The person I was with was even greeted with a "you know that item costs this much" when they placed their order .....all because of my shirt. They are on UberEats so if you are dressed casual you can get it delivered (or perhaps pick it up) I am sad to hear that they will be closing, I do want to get there one more time for lunch as it was always a nice experience aside from the one encounter.

Beautiful fall night out on this lively local street where the entire neighborhood is out and…read moreabout. Great people watching and there was music playing from the street closure. Seventh street staff is accommodating and attentive. The food was very good. We started with the hot antipasto. Although it's really only enough for two people. You need another app for more people. The bread basket was a nice touch. The menu is very extensive and well priced. I had the salmon which was well portioned and tasty with a Dijon. My aunt had a thin grilled chicken and vegetables. We both loved their scalloped potatoes, yum. My mother had gnocchi bolognese which was very good as well. For desert we went with rainbow cookie but it was missing that rainbow taste. The fruit tart with cream was nice but the cream could have been thicker to give it more taste. Cappuccinos were too light mostly milk in color and taste. Overall very happy this place is still here, it has everything and in a prime location.

Was in the area so I stopped in. Super cute cafe. Ordered an iced coffee and a mini croissant for…read moremy mini person. Service was friendly and quick. My coffee tastes great and there were lots of flavor options. The owner has a play corner in the back for the kids. She even brought us stickers to decorate extra coffee cups for the kids. How freakin sweet. I'll be back for sure!

The barista recommended the pandan latte and ube latte and suggested I try the pandan which I did, and it did not disappoint! I love trying new lattes.
