    One of my favorite things about Queens, is places like that. They make you feel like you're in a small town in the big city. Went here for the first time and the service is so good and welcoming and this matcha latte looked and tasted great. It would be a great place to catch up with friends or get some work done. It seems simple but I love when you can tell the people that work somewhere enjoy being there because it makes me enjoy being there more. 10/10 would recommend and would stop by again when I'm the area!

    Current menu but also, buy the croissants!

    What a great addition to the neighborhood! Cool Beans recently opened maybe about a month or two ago but I finally came around to their shop last week. CROISSANTS! We have a terrible shortage of delicious croissants in the neighborhood once Cote Soleil closed but thankfully we have Cool Beans. They source their pastries locally and I've already tried the plain, chocolate and almond croissants. Amazing! Just the right amount of butter and fluffiness that's needed. The almond croissants are not overly sweet like some other spots and although I'm more of a chocolate croissant fan, I can see myself converting. Customer service here is also stellar! I've been there twice and each time the staff has been super nice and are always talking to their customers. They also offer great suggestions and tips (hello Chobani oatmilk extra creamy). I haven't tried all of their holiday drinks but I'm a fan of the pumpkin spice latte. Unfortunately, I'm not too big of a fan of their La Colombe coffee but that's just my preference.

    I've been coming here ever since moving to the neighborhood. From the name, I thought it was a coffee shop, but this is an MVP all-around neighborhood joint - with sandwiches, coffee, baked goods, the works! Everything they have here is excellent. I've been moving through the menu slowly and have NEVER been disappointed. The food is always fresh and the hospitality makes me feel like I live in a little holiday Lifetime movie town, except it's genuine. This is that rare combination of food and warmth that makes you wonder why you're rushing around all of the time. Come for the n-the-moment-ness that the food, drinks, and staff provide. So far, I have had the cappuccino, a cinnamon raisin bagel with cream cheese, and a few breakfast sandwiches. One day I ordered the roast beef sandwich on a whim and took it home. As I ate it, I wondered what kind of sorcery was involved in this food experience I was having. It is the best roast beef sandwich I've ever tried. I'd rotate this picture but I'm not done eating.

The sandwich itself is good just wish it was a bit bigger for the price you pay. But I have to say each time I had it the sandwich was good.

Overall their menu is pretty decent and you can order pretty much anything and customize anything they have as well.

Whether you're in the neighborhood or just East, you're likely going to pass it on the way to the train. With solid outdoor picnic-style tables, it's a fantastic alternative to Espresso 77. Inside there's some more great seating with a high counter, plenty of more large tables and some smaller ones. Queing up to order is fairly straightforward and the large hanging menu makes it easy to figure out what you might like. IMHO, sandwiches are the go-to. You get exactly what you expect and the price point is reasonable. What I would absolutely avoid is breakfast sandwiches. Prices on those is far less reasonable. Overall, you get exactly what you expect here and it's nice to have it as a neighborhood option.

The game changer was the sesame seeds that gave just a little nutty flavor but not too overpowering.

Just know that they are somewhat new to the neighborhood. I ordered the Cubano combo. Combo comes with fries and a drink. The gentleman that took my order greeted me immediately. The place has seating in the back. He placed my order for fries to one of the two servers behind the counter and one was sweeping away. All I thought is I hope she washes her hands. Took my sandwich to go. Got home and wondered if I ordered a Cubano or a sandwich. Cubano's are pressed. So they are thin. This wasn't. Pork is shredded. Huge piece of ham and a huge drizzle of mustard. Tried to relayer everything but it was messy. Taste was ok but it was too overwhelming. Fries were tasty. I will go back to try one of the heroes they have. Won't be ordering the Cubano.

So when he mentioned how his burger was the most popular item, I definitely had to give it a shot - $8.75 for a no frills 8oz Angus burger with American cheese, tomato, onion, lettuce (I believe I saw pickle was available, but didn't get it). What I got was the 8oz of meat, but it was on a gorgeous brioche bun, with 2 slices of beefsteak tomato and really fresh lettuce. The red onions were meticulouslu cooked down in garlic butter on his griddle, and the burger patty (100% fresh, by the way) was cooked on grill using wood chip-fueled fire. Like I said, the guy really cares about his food. The meat was cooked to order, and all of the ingredients (bun, produce) were from LOCAL SHOPS freshly delivered every morning, so no unfresh ingredients. He dared me to eat this burger and come back to tell him it's not the best in the area, and I think he has an argument. So if you want to get a really good burger, all while supporting a 1-man show who supports Astoria's local businesses, stop by! This place is a great addition to the neighborhood, and I can't wait to try the rest of his sandwiches.

Both came with generous amounts of meat, not too saucy either which sometimes makes sandwiches soggy. I got the regular sub size which I ate half of. It can easier feed 2 people!

I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to get a sandwich from Stacked since I haven't had one in a while. I I walked in and waited to be greeted while the staff chatted and gazed at me for about 5ish minutes or so. Finally, I'm acknowledged and asked "what can I get for you". I saw they had a Thanksgiving sandwich called the "Gobbler". I asked how long they would have it as even though it's the November special, sometimes places might make it last through the holidays. When asked I was told "it will be available until whenever November ends". This whole interaction made me feel so unwelcome. It didn't look like there was much going on there in the relm of orders, but it still took them a while to make my sandwich. Finally they bring it to the front counter. Pack it in paper and a paper bag and I'm off. I didn't have much time to eat so I scarfed it down in my car before heading down Queens Blvd. It was very good. Not my favorite, but def has potential. I also feel like, though this is a nice sized sandwich, they were a bit stingy this time around. I would say the star was the stuffing. It just tied everything together. As you all know, I love a good sandwich shop. I wish this was as good as it once was to me. Not sure if I'll give it one more shot just yet.
