The service is quick and the staff are really nice people I haven't cared for the food too much, I've tried their breakfast and some wraps but I definitely will go back for the coffee. Probably my favorite spot around, would much rather support them than the bigger chains and I think they're better than most of the other smaller shops around

Nice to come across this spot in a shopping center which makes parking very convenient. The service…read morewas quick and friendly. Tried out the Iced Nutella Latte that was served up in this cute canister. Seems like they had a lot of quick food options and a fair amount of seating. Cute place to grab a quick coffee and chat with a friend or two. Think I'd like to go back and try something else on the menu!

The place is drive-thru only, but they have tables where you can hang out and enjoy your food and drinks. I went on a weekday during dinner time and there was no line so it was quick and convenient. I had the Matcha Latte with oat milk, which was amazing! It was also gluten free, dairy free, and soy free, which is a big plus for me. Just note that there is no restroom available. I would definitely come back if I'm in Merrick, Long Island.

I ordered a tiramisu latte which tasted spot on. They have a great bakery section to choose from. I ordered a chocolate chip cookie and banana bread and I couldn't believe how fresh both of them were. I went on a Saturday morning and there were a good amount of people there. The employees kept the line moving and the drinks were made very fast. I was in and out of there within 10 minutes. I will definitely be back soon to try more of the menu.

The young woman taking my order was pleasant and had such a calming demeanor and voice. The vibes were nice in here. They're isnt much seating so I don;t know if people come here to work but they had two comfy leather chairs in the front complete with coffee table book. It was cute. I ordered the raspberry matcha latte with oatmilk. While making my drink the employee asked if I wanted to foam (I'm guessing becayse it wasn;t nondairy). I thought that was really considerate and a nice touch. I got the coldfoam btw. The matcha latte was delicious. The slight sweet and tanginess from the raspberry and teh creaminess of the oatmilk and the cold foam made it perfectly balanced. The matcha tasted good and grassy as it should. It was delcious. IN the area I'd def stop back in for the same and to try some of their other fun drinks.

The owner was friendly and attentive and the atmosphere was very cozy and warm. I loved how it wasn't crowded and felt like being home in your living room. I got the brown sugar churro iced latte and had some vanilla added in, and paired it with a chicken salad sandwich with apples on a croissant bread with chips on the side. Then to satisfy my sweet tooth, I got a caramel pecan bar. Everything was really great & I would definitely come back again.

On this visit, I ordered a tuna sandwich on multigrain bread, it was very tasty and made with fresh ingredients. I also ordered a Caramel Coconut Matcha, which was nicely balanced with coconut flakes. I can't say enough about how relaxing the space is; it gets better with every visit. Even the owner is as kind as could be, making it easy to continue to support this great business. If you haven't checked it out yet, you must!

Have I spent all of my money here? Yes. But this cafe's food and drinks gave me just enough joy and…read moreenergy to power through the days so it was all worth it. My favorite combo was the hot matcha latte and croissant during the winter time. The matcha was so creamy with a strong and sweet matcha taste, and the croissant was unexpectedly top tier. But I wouldn't sleep on their other menu items either (they brew very strong coffee as well). My addiction was fueled by this cafe's aesthetic seasonal decor, genuinely friendly service, and proximity to the train station. They craft such a well rounded experience for their customers !

Instead they serve pastries and specialty drinks, exactly what I was looking for! I tried baklava, bird nest and Burma pistachio. my favorite was definitely the baklava, the phyllo dough was very crispy and flavorful. They didn't overdo on the honey so the sweetness was just right and I could still taste the pistachios. Bird nest was not bad neither. It was very crunchy and flavorful. Burma pistachio was not bad just not as surprisingly good as the other two. I also ordered 2 drinks: strawberry matcha dnd Yemeni chai. The Yemeni chai tastes different from other chai that i have had at those chain coffee shops. The spices were a lot stronger. Overall it's a cute place with many young diners hanging out at night. Very lively vibe. Got a few parking spots right outside in Soni Center.

The service was also just mediocre. The employee didn't seem happy or friendly at all; instead of a greeting like 'hello' or 'good morning,' the first thing they said to me was a flat 'What can I get you?' They didn't even smile. Hoy pedí el 'graham latte' con leche de almendras. Estuvo regular y no lo volvería a pedir porque el sabor a chocolate era demasiado fuerte para mi gusto. El servicio también fue bastante mediocre. El empleado no parecía para nada contento ni amable; en lugar de un saludo como 'hola' o 'buenos días', lo primero que me dijo fue un seco '¿Qué te puedo dar?'. Ni siquiera sonrió.
