MatthewSeptember 12, 2013An airy and friendly place for tea/coffee after strolling in the Gantry Plaza State Park in LIC. Cash only. Ask for the WiFi password at the counter. It was purplemonster on Sep 12, 2013.
CompassMay 15, 2014Scones of the day and a laid-back, signature twist on silver-trayed tea service make this a popular grazing and working spot for local families and freelance creatives.
One of the few places that has pimento cheese sandwiches! Southern Pro Tip: If you go with the sandwich, ask for a huge hunk of pimento spread instead of the other cheeses they offer.
Great local spot for some tea or Irving Farm Coffee. The apple-walnut chicken salad sandwich is one of my all-time favorites. Wifi available. Cash only!!
Clari OJune 10, 2014Love this place and especially the Matcha Tea (Japanese green tea with extra honey) is delicious and IT'S KIDS FRIENDLY!!!.. My 4 yr old had a blast playing with their toys!!!..
If ordering the breakfast burrito, ask for a side of the chipotle dressing that comes on the salad - gives great flavor without much heat. (Or ask them to fold it in.)
I love it here!! It's such a fun place to come work. :) The brownie is yummy, and Francis is a delight when he's working!
While you can't bring your dog in, they do leave a water bowl outside and a comfy bench where you can tether your pooch. For lunch try the Turkey Reuben.
The BOB and Green Bob are delicious! I love the cream cheese on the BOB. Free WiFi and good coffee too :)
Spacious and a great place to do work. Really friendly staff. I have nothing bad to say about this place.
Ray LinAugust 11, 2013Great local tea spot. Try the matcha smoothie - green tea, yogurt, honey. So refreshing.
John BurkeSeptember 20, 2014"The Boy" is an awesome breakfast sandwich. Egg, bacon, white cheddar and cream cheese. Get it. Every time.
Great place to sit & chill in the mornings. Grab a quick bite- croissant & beverage. Free WiFi.
Benjamin PeryerOctober 1, 2011Brew of choice: Irving Farm Coffee. Great atmosphere to bring work or the newspaper, and a surprisingly extensive breakfast and lunch menu.
This place is awesome, especially in the summer, for bringing your laptop and getting work done.
Laurie HümpelAugust 23, 2014I like their iced caramel latte. The regular iced coffee has a flavor that tastes just slightly off to me.
Oz LublingAugust 6, 2014Great LIC find for a great coffee and sandwich. The curried chicken sandwich is good.
Pennylane YilmazMarch 1, 2012I love the lavender festival tea, so delicate and flavorful. Communitea salad is yummy as well
Digital NativesJuly 24, 2012Air conditioning, wifi, and iced tea make this spot perfect for our mid-summer internet outages.
Lauren DonaldsonApril 10, 2011The herb tuna salad sandwich rocks my world and the tea selection is unexpected and fun!
Erica LMay 2, 2010Try the Spring Jasmine Salad and if you don't like chickpeas like me, substitute for beets... A delish choice!
Seen the Tina Fey-Amy Poehler movie "Baby Mama?" A few scenes were filmed here, like Tina meeting her love interest.
Kathy PinoDecember 19, 2010Get a my favorite smoothie and a croissant breakfast sandwich. Its the best!
Everyone who works here looks miserable. Good iced green tea, though.
Vivie BDecember 7, 2010I think sprinkling some happy thoughts on your morning coffee would do you some good...
Try the Tofu Hot dogs with sauerkraut. Plenty of vegetarian options here.
