One of the best waterfront views of Manhattan skyline you'll see from anywhere. They serve beer at the window until 10pm!
Waterfront beer and coffee! Salads are also good and big.

Artistic park on the Queens waterfront w/ regular installations by emerging artists. Also on weekends there are events for kids, families and the community— from art making, live performances to yoga.
Perfect for a bike adventure or combo visit w/ Noguchi Museum next door. Revolving sculpture selection can be hit-or-miss, but the riverside view and greenery are always worth it. Dogs allowed!
Awesome waterfront view, great service, and very friendly staff. My favorite Starbucks to go to☕
One of my favorite Starbucks! Great atmosphere, and friendly staff.
Parking lot from hell.
You come here for the waterfront views and service but the food is pretty mediocre
Amazing Italian food. Order the burrata as an appetizer. And, if it's a special when you're there, get the Gnudk (sounds like Nu-Ree). It's like gnocchi but made with ricotta instead of potato.
Brand new Italian in LIC and it is amazing!
Nice scenic waterfront park overlooking Bronx and Manhattan.
Very beautiful and peaceful for Sunday morning walks

Overpriced, but convenient if you live in LIC or are headed to the waterfront. Definitely hit the cheese counter and pick up some of the homemade cookies if you're going.
Their buffet is good, great salad assortment, and the sandwiches and pizzas are really good... They also have a sitting area, and their gourmet groceries are nice... Great cheese assortment!
Overpriced
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
