I stopped by here for breakfast since it was close to the puppy park! The girl behind the register was SUPER nice - I ordered a mushroom omelette which was 3 egg whites, chicken, mushrooms, onions, spinach & provolone cheese! It came with some home fries & white toast! The portion was HUGE & very affordable (around $11). The inside was super small but literally had everything! (From granola parfaits, smoothies, salads, wraps, paninis, baked goodies, fruit to chips!) There's also a place inside like a bench to sit at & eat your food if you're hangry & don't want to wait till you get home (which is exactly what I did - was so hungry didn't even take a picture haha!) it was delicious & will definitely be back to try the other items on the menu!

The Spot Cafe is situated in Sunnyside. I enjoyed a cinnamon raisin bagel egg sandwich, which tasted as expected. It was pleasantly surprised me while unwrapping my sandwich. The service was prompt. I appreciated receiving an additional receipt in my order inside the wrapper. The cafe introduced me to a clever method, particularly beneficial when handling multiple orders to easily identify each one. The ambiance is irrelevant. Overall, I would consider to returning in the future.

The Spot Cafe is a great neighbor cafe with fair pricing, an extensive menu, and lots of other snacks available for purchase. I first tried them out via Too Good To Go where they gave me the most food I'd ever gotten through that app. Thankfully I had plenty of cash to tip them with. More recently I tried them out for lunch. My dad was visiting and we stopped by to check out their sandwiches. We had been talking about lox, and to our suprise they have a bagel sandwich called The New Yorker which is an everything bagel with plain cream cheese, thinly sliced red onions, thinly sliced tomatoes, capers, and of course, lox. It was well put together and so satisfying. I've already gone back for a second sandwich. And at about $11 plus tax, it feels like a really good deal. They also have smoothies which I want to try one of these days as well. I've heard good things from others on this place so look forward to trying more if I can get myself to branch out from The New Yorker. :o) I should also note that service is always super friendly too. It's a great addition to the neighborhood!

Love love love this spot! Super clean and organic selections with awesome selections on huge menu. Staff are friendly and pleasant and their juices are so yummy. You'd never think it, but this is truly one of the best spots to pop in for a quick and extremely good bite or healthy juice to eat and drink.

I've been to this spot many times and it's always a good time. The service is always solid, and…read morelast night our server Chris was awesome, super chill, attentive, and even recommended a drink(Boozy Blueberry) that ended up being a new fave. We basically ordered the whole menu: chicken quesadilla, loaded poppers, lemon pepper wings, the Trestle burger on an English muffin (still undefeated), shepherd's pie, and pig wings. Everything was on point, but the wings, the Mac and cheese and that burger are must-orders every time. The drinks were just as good. We had a frozen Arnold Palmer, a coconut mojito and the boozy blueberry. The overall vibe is calm and chill, perfect for hanging out without feeling rushed. One of my go-to spots for a reason.

The place is LOUD albeit with good taste of retro, 90's music and not the modern trash that floods the radio waves so I can rock with that. Place is sized pretty well with an outside seating area and plenty of tables inside the albeit dimly lit bar/restaurant. Coming into the place I was greeted by a blonde woman who seemed to be a supervisor of the area. She directed me to a comfortable seating area and a server took my order afterwards. The place was relatively busy so the wait for my food was kind of in the long range, about maybe 15 minutes. I ordered Chicken & Waffles with Iced Tea and the food was definitely worth the wait. That chicken was so good, a bit on the crisp side but it's solid in taste. The Waffle had such an awesome texture with the right measure of powdered sugar, decorated with Blueberries and Strawberries, the entrée was plated very well. The Iced Tea, I didn't know it was unsweetened so that threw me off but some sugar kinda fixed that. Service was also 'A' Tier. The place was busy so it was a tad on the slow side but they were very attentive. About 3 different servers tended to me whether it was about my order, how I liked it and paying for the bill when I was finished. That's dedication and I always give props to that. I enjoyed my visit here.

Went here on a Saturday for a friend's birthday brunch, and it was such a great experience. When we…read morearrived, the hostess guided us to one of their private rooms downstairs, which was spacious enough to comfortably fit around 20-25 people--perfect for a group celebration. We had our own dedicated server, which made everything feel really seamless. They kept our drinks flowing the entire time, and it was a huge plus not having to flag anyone down. For food, I ordered the chicken sandwich and it was delicious. The coleslaw on it added great flavor (honestly, I just wish there was a bit more of it). It came with fries that were perfectly crispy--exactly how fries should be. Overall, I had a really enjoyable time. If I'm ever back in the neighborhood or if anyone asks me for a good brunch spot for groups, I'd definitely recommend this place.

Located in one the busiest areas in Astoria. There's always plenty of foot traffic. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating. The food was very good overall. It's a bonus that brunch is served everyday until 4pm. For our meal, we ordered the Hangover Skillet and the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes to share. Since there were only two of us, the portions were generous and left us satisfied. While the food and atmosphere were great. I wasn't impressed with the service. It wasn't terrible but it didn't match the dining experience. All in all, Oliver's still a solid.choice for brunch in Astoria.

They also have a temporary shed for the summer, for additional outdoor seating. For my meal, I had a pancake burrito, and it was better than I could have expected. The pancake was so fluffy and tasty, with a hint of crisp on the outside and a nice chewy texture overall. The savory components of the burrito worked surprisingly well with the pancake exterior, making for a medley of sweet, salty, and umami that went really well together in every bite. Our server was excellent, can't say enough about how good the brunch was. I definitely recommend this place!

I wish the drinks were a little stronger but they were good nonetheless. The server was great. The place gave an old school save by the bell vibes very cute. They have happy hour starting at 3pm during the week. The bathrooms are clean. They have indoor and outdoor seating. We went on a Friday afternoon and it wasn't packed at all. Will def go back to try their desserts.

We stopped here for breakfast while staying in Long Island City and I had a rather lackluster…read moreexperience. It's a small cafe with limited seating. They have a giant menu posted on the wall to peruse. When we approached the counter to order, the person manning the register basically ignored us. When she finally acknowledged us to place our order, the interaction was taciturn and curt - no niceties. I ordered the single order pan-fried pancake ($8, but closer to $11 after tax). The menu states a choice between beef, pork, and chicken, but we were only given the choice between beef and chicken. The cashier also gave us a choice between spicy potato or pork floss (I opted for the pork floss), which was not denoted in the menu description. The menu does say it comes with veg, but what they really mean is lettuce/salad. The menu picture online is also misleading because it says it comes with an egg, and displays both a soft-boiled egg and beautiful runny egg cascading over the pancake. Instead, the only egg that was served was one overcooked fried egg (not runny at all!), and it was cold (but more on that later). The quoted wait time for the food was 20 minutes. There's a little station near the counter to grab napkins, silverware, and water. Around 9:30am on a Friday, several tables were filled, but no one had any food (the cafe opened at 9am, so I suppose the kitchen was still ramping up). My friends and I ordered variations of the same dish (the pan-fried pancake), but the dishes were served in reverse order - the person who ordered last got their dish first and vice versa. When one order is more complex than another, it's understandable when the easier/quicker one is served first. Since we all ordered nearly the same dish, this was not the case. The way things were being expedited was not efficient. When they finally called my name, I was excited to dig in, but the dish was cold! The beef was cold, the pancake was cold, the egg was cold and overcooked... I had half a mind to send it back. I'm guessing my order was ready earlier, but it must've sat there because someone forgot about it. Now technically, there are cold elements in the dish, if you count the lettuce and dressing, but there's no reason why the pancake, egg, and beef were all cold... they weren't warm, they didn't retain any heat, they were cold. They were also skimpy on the beef. The only redeeming qualities of the dish were that, fortunately, the pancake was still crispy, albeit cold and greasy, and the pork floss is a delicacy that gave the pancake a little extra oomph of flavor and texture. My friend ordered the Wake Up Combo ($14), which is the pan-fried pancake served with a soy milk and tea egg. Similar to my own egg experience, the tea egg was disappointingly overcooked (think hard-boiled) and not jammy like the picture at all. We all have bad days, so maybe Morning Brunch & Cafe was having one... but this is a skip for me.

Convenient location right near the Queens station in Long Island City (LIC). Taiwanese influenced…read morebreakfast, so I was pretty excited. The prices were bad here but the service and the food weren't great. When we arrived, we were scoping out the menu, they had it posted in a lot of places but it was kind of confusing. I did like how you could scan a QR code and when you clicked on an item, it was more descriptive of the add-on options or potential meat options. There are approximately 10-13 seats, so not great for a massive party, but good for a small outing or for take out. I saw a decent amount of delivery people come in to do pick ups. My friends and I were ordering and were curtly treated by one of the employees. I ordered the fried vegetable pancake with them since you couldn't order the QR code on the tables. She told me the options of only beef and chicken. I thought pork would've been an option and then she mumbled about the options for the additional topping. I couldn't understand her when she said pork floss, so I ordered spicy potatoes. The food also came out kind of sad and was slow to come out. The order was all wrong as I ordered last and then was delivered my dish first. It was kind of sad because I didn't even realize you should be able to pick up the pancake. It was hard to eat because it kept crumbling apart due to the pan fried falky pancake was a thin layer what just felt like crust. I was imagining more like a scallion pancake with vegetables infused or stuffed in. It also came out cold, and could have used a bit more flavor like a sauce or soy sauce. The spicy potatoe tasted a little undercooked as well. My friend ordered hers with pork floss instead and that tasted a little better. The dish also came with a supposed to be overeasy egg that is supposed to be runny, but was a bit overcooked.
