I saw plenty of outlets available. Ambiance was warm and inviting. Had a bunch of great coffee and non-coffee options to choose from. I tried the rose passion matcha with whole milk. It was too sweet for me but my fiancé liked it a lot. They had a cool machine when you first walked in that would simulate the perfect drink for you if you were unsure of what to get. There's a shared parking lot out front. I would come back here again for sure.

A Warm, Authentic Gem You'll Fall in Love With…read more My fiancée, Likseva, and I stopped in tonight on our way back to Brooklyn and it instantly became one of those special finds you never forget. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with kindness and warmth by the owner, a lovely Montenegrin-Albanian woman who runs this restaurant with genuine pride and heart. You can feel her touch in everything, from the cozy lighting to the soft music playing in the background. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Every bite was layered with flavor, balance, and soul. You can tell this is real Mediterranean cuisine, made by someone who truly loves what she does. The staff was attentive and friendly, the atmosphere was calm and comforting, and everything about the evening felt genuine. This is more than a restaurant. It's a place built on tradition, care, and love. Likseva and I will absolutely be coming back soon to visit the owner again and enjoy another beautiful dinner together. As a Marine Corps Colonel who has traveled and dined all over the world, I can say that Cafe Latte is a place that stands out in every way. Highly recommended. #CafeLatte #StatenIsland #MediterraneanCuisine #HiddenGem #MarineCorpsColonelApproved #BrooklynToStatenIsland #AlbanianHospitality #MontenegrinSpirit #LiksevaAndMark "Me zemër e me shpirt" - with heart and soul

The many outlets available for laptops/tech is a nice feature. All of the stone/lack of carpet or soundproofing leads to an echo like effect. Could get noisy if crowded.

We popped in during a visit to SI, as some of my bf's friends had mentioned Moka and Co to us…read more While I did not enjoy my actual coffee here (it was too... spiced in a weird way, I did not enjoy it), the pastries on offer are delicious. They are currently doing the viral fruit pastries, and I went for a tres leches mango to share. I got the Dubai chocolate croissant, and my bf got the pistachio raspberry croissant. Not something I would eat daily (the calories are probably insane), but as a once-in-a-while treat, this was great. The mango dessert was surprisingly the least sweet of the three things we got.

Whole wheat sour dough on the side. Ricotta pretty much has no taste so the omelette was bland - not their fault. Bacon was good. Bread was amazing. This is kind of self service where you have to order your meal on the bakery side and pay. You get a number for the table. You take your own plastic cutlery, napkins etc. you have to ask for butter. They have an amazing menu. I'd go back for lunch but the bakery selection is still my favorite part!!

A few others came towards the end of our meal, so they aren't busy on weekdays. The place itself is nicely decorated and perfect for hosting events which they do! The staff are nice and friendly as well. We really enjoyed the earl grey milk tea and the purple yam cake. I also highly recommend the pate a choux!

The teas are great -- one is never enough and the desserts are always fresh. The chocolate fondant was good but very sweet.

I stopped by and placed a mobile order for a tea and an apple turnover. After waiting for a bit at…read morethe pick-up location, I finally got someone's attention to help me. One of the servers let me know they didn't have any apple turnovers, so they gave me an apple puff pastry. Imagine my surprise when I got to my seat to find that it was completely hollow, not a single apple in sight! So I went back to the counter to let them know. The servers were very kind and took pictures to let their boss know, and gave me an apple fritter instead. I guess third times the charm, because that was very tasty. We stayed at our table for a while, and it got very busy. Some of my friends waited a long time for their food to be ready, but everything did taste good. I'll probably go back and hopefully have a better experience with ordering my food, because I really did enjoy the energy and everything I tried.

Went to this place after getting off the road all the way from Westchester with my elderly mother…read morebecause she wanted eggplant Parmesan and she had eaten from this place before when a relative was staying at a hospital rehabilitation center nearby and remembered the food being good, so we went to have some lunch. We were seated in the outdoor area, which is nice on a humid day as You can get a decent breeze. 99% of the people who were there were just enjoying their their food and socializing, We decided to sit at a table near a window for whatever reason there was a gentleman at this table who decided that it was okay for him to vape while he was sitting down instead of exiting the restaurant. Not only did he decide that it was okay to vape, he decided that it was okay to blow his vapors onto my mother's head and engulf us in his gaping experience. Instead of noticing (full time hostess in the immediate area), automatically reseating us, apologizing and telling the man that is NOT okay to vape in the restaurant I had to flag a server down and let them know that we wanted a different table. Pretty good service but I really thought that that was a gross oversight on part of the restaurant like indoor smoking is illegal in the first place and vaping really isn't any better (arguably worse depending on what scientific data you're looking at), plenty people have respiratory issues and just preference period. No one should be forced to sit anywhere where a no vaping policy isn't being enforced in 2026. Really disappointed that I can't give this place a higher than a three star rating as a result because the food is pretty good and the servers were quick and pleasant, but the smoking issue to me is a gross oversight as far as basic customer service goes. People shouldn't be made to feel like they're being weird for wanting a different table because they don't want to be surrounded by anything but oxygen, Do better folks. Tried to call and speak with a manager BEFORE leaving this review, was left on hold for close to 10 mins however manager was extremely apologetic and pretty appalled he personally stated that vaping IS against their policy and that the staff should have absolutely been enforcing that. Welp, that's what complaints are for right? Food is decent and staff is respectful but I don't know if I'd go back given that experience if I have alternative choices in the area just trying to enjoy some lunch, drama and discomfort is not necessary indoor vaping is outlawed for a reason people violating that shouldn't get to just go about their day with zero consequences while everyone else is annoyed or having their lung / cardiovascular health put at risk involuntarily. YMMV

I'd expect to see this bookstore cafe in somewhere like in Ogunquit, Burlington, Bar Harbor, Austin, or Asheville? Super cute place with an interesting, eclectic selection of used books. They have a little coffee shop/cafe at the front - and there's an area where they have talks and live music on certain days. The people who work there are so incredibly friendly and helpful. I think there's a cute little outdoor area, but it was closed last time I visited. Hope to drop by here next time I'm in Staten Island!

The feta and spinach pastry, tuna salad and egg salad croissant were all very flavorful, but they overly light with the filling, where the ratio between the pastry and the filling were way too imbalanced (which you can easily see in the photos). For how much potential they have, if they add just a bit more filling to them they can easily become one of the top cafes in all of Staten Island. I hope they take this to heart for I really want them to do well and continue to become successful! Thank you for reading and best of luck! (:
