Stopped in for lunch and a latte. Cute little spot for breakfast and lunch. It was pretty busy for a Monday afternoon. You order at the counter then they bring the food out to you. We got The Pequa Sandwich and Petra Salad. Both delicious. Parking can be a pain in this area but otherwise a pleasant experience.
This is a very calm and peaceful place that serves tasty food, drinks, and pastries that are to die for. The workers are the sweetest and the service is very good. I ordered a few pastries, the Shrimp Po Boy sandwich, and the marshmallow peep latte and it came out in less than 10 minutes. The atmosphere is very chill and pleasant, and the aesthetic of the cafe is nice as well. I would definitely recommend stopping by for some brunch one day.
The Perk & Press - Massapequa, NY What a gem! Stopped in for breakfast/brunch and was so glad we did. The space has a cozy, welcoming vibe with a modern café feel, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. We ordered a The Petra Bowl, the Noyo, and the Tuna Salad Sandwich. The sandwiches came on hearty multigrain bread, perfectly toasted and packed with flavor--mine had egg, veggies, and melty cheese, and it was filling but not heavy. The Petra bowl was colorful and fresh with Moroccan eggplant, hummus, ricotta, tomatoes, cucumbers, and greens, with warm bread on the side. Everything was seasoned beautifully and felt made with care. The quality of the ingredients really stood out--it's not your average café food, but thoughtfully prepared and super tasty. Also loved the presentation, which made the meal even more enjoyable. Definitely worth the stop if you're in the area--this is the kind of spot that makes you want to linger over coffee and good food. Fresh, tasty, and very good
Very cute coffee shop that also offers breakfast and lunch sandwiches. They have a big list of coffee flavors so there's something for everyone! I ordered the blueberry crumble iced coffee which was delicious! The food smelled very good so I will definitely be back for food and another flavor iced coffee. The staff is very nice and helpful as well. It's right by the train station so it's a great spot to stop at while waiting for your train.
This is a hidden gem for sure! The food, the drinks, the staff... everything was just perfect! There was a line that went quickly when we first got there. It's a cute little cafe that you would totally pass by if you didn't know the goodness that was inside! The staff was super helpful when I couldn't decide what I wanted-- 1) because everything sounded so good and 2) because they had SO many options! We didn't try any of the sweet treats but will be back again. We went with coffee and sandwiches, which were delicious! The only downside was that we had to wait for a table to open up for the 3 of us, but even that went quickly while I was deciding on what to get! The food was fresh, the flavors were amazing and definitely a level up from your typical cafe. I got the Jamaican grilled chicken sandwich with the spicy aioli on the side. It came with a delicious slaw inside and really hit the spot. My two friends both got the same sandwich, the Pequa which was chicken cutlet with a spinach dip topping. The fries were SO GOOD! And my friends enjoyed their meal. They have a ton of options for drinks with every kind of milk and creamer you could imagine! I will definitely be back for more!!
I had been looking forward to this place opening for awhile when I had seen the signs first coming up, and I finally got my chance to stop on for a late breakfast and some coffee. The wait was worth it, I have nothing but good things to say about this place. For a Café, there is way more seating than typical which is already a huge plus for me. The decor is nothing flashy but lights are kept a little dim and the music is nice, low and ambient to let you chat with whoever you may be with with ease. I had a French toast muffin, something brand new to me and it was delicious. They had a number of others to choose from that I was interested in as well, along with a decent menu of other hot breakfast and lunch items that looked to be just as tasty from what I saw on other patrons' plates. But let's be real the real name of the game here is their coffee. And not only is it good, but they have enough flavor options to make your head spin if that's your vibe. I went with pistachio and white chocolate, "the Sicilian kiss" and was pleasantly surprised at the robust flavor while not being overly sweet. Staff were both very kind and quick to serve. Parking can be a little weird, but there are side streets and a few municipal lots close by that don't make it too much of an issue. There's a lot of competition for coffee places popping around Nassau and Suffolk, but this place really won me over. Would make for a great date spot or even just a relaxing place to work for a bit if you needed a change of scenery. Looking forward to coming back here and trying out even more of what this place has to offer.
I was able to check out Perk and Press today which is a sister location of The Perk and it was phenomenal! Let's start with the food (10/10). I tried the French fries which were very unique as far as the cut but were perfectly crispy along with the chicken fingers. I also had a hazelnut pastry that was filled with Nutella which was also superb. I also tried the PB&J soup and yes it's exactly what you think it is- my taste buds are still confused as to why it was so delicious. It's a butternut squash base with peanut butter and grapes on top. Trust me it's worth a try! They have tons of flavors for coffee but they also have wine on top for those looking for a mid-day drink. The ambiance (10/10). It is the perfect blend of a coffee shop/lunch spot with tons of seating. The space is beautifully decorated and can also be a good place to get some work done. Service (10/10). The service was great and the staff was able to give great descriptions of the menu items. Our food also came out very quickly and they were on top of cleaning off the table. I shall be back!!
I'm so glad I got to stop in. This sister location to Massapequa Perk brings menu favorites in a larger space. The service is pleasant as always and I can't wait for my next visit.

I absolutely love this place. I loved every drink I have gotten from here! My favorites are the Iced Cin Churro Latte, Samosa Latte the Chocolate Chai and Cinnamon Chai. They have endless flavors and it never misses. The Jamaican Sandwich is amazing. It's nice local place to meet with some friends or study. Massapequa Perk is just as good. read more

Came to try this place because of the high Yelp ratings. And I can say they are legit. Friendly, but most importantly, efficient staff. My food was fast, hot and delicious. Had the "No Yo" egg white breakfast sandwich, which was simply scrumptious. Fluffy egg whites, quality other ingredients, on multigrain bread toasted to perfection. Excellent coffee also. Plenty of seating at cleaning tables. Yes, prices are a little high, but worth it given the overall service and quality. read more

Love perk and press!! Get a coffee there as often as I can! As a busy mom of a newborn the only thing that would be better is curb side pick up haha but I absolutely love their coffee, their food is so good and the workers are so friendly! My fave is an iced creme brûlée latè! As of last summer, my new Fave place to meet up with a friend or go with my family! read more

This place is great. It just opened and is honestly one of the best coffee shops I've been to. Starbucks definitely has some competition lol. The coffee and food is amazing. All the food is better quality than most delis, and it's all made in house. Everything is really good quality with low prices. The service is also really great, the employees as well as the owners are super nice. It's also extremely clean and well maintained. read more
