Very spacious inside and bright and sunny but not hot. There's even a jewelry for sale. I got the blueberry lassi. It was tart and fresh, Service was super nice. They brought drinks to table.

I would go more for the space to work and the aesthetic to see people and not necessarily for the drinks or food. Got the tiramisu latte which was very aesthetic but the coffee was not very strong at all. The fries were also good but again, nothing crazy standout. Prices are OK but I've paid these prices for better coffee.

This place is attached with a laundry, so it's a nice place to grab a bite or a drink when your clothes are in the machine.

Nice place to hangout in woodside.

I love the cozy interior feeling when you walk in because it's relaxing and makes you wanna get more and more haha! They have everything from chai, coffee, delicious sweets and refreshers. If you're in Steinway or any of their other locations, I would highly recommend stopping on by and trying out one of their goodies. The baklava and Kunefe looks so delightful, the folks down at Mokafe definitely know what they're doing and they're killing th coffee and chai game!

The sweetness level was perfect in my humble opinion, although I already know some matcha traditionalists who would call it too sweet. For me, though, it was much more balanced than Kijitora. I also loved that they have a bar area where you can sit and work while watching the staff whisk your matcha in the chawan. A drink and a tiny performance. What more could I ask for??

Ordered: Iced Black Sesame Latte (~$6)…read moreIced Earl Grey Matcha Lavender (~$8) Aya's take: Verse has made its way to every top list and continues to operate with high quality. Selfishly, I'm so glad this exists in Astoria! I decided to try a couple new drinks and went with the Iced Earl Grey Matcha Lavender which was just fantastic. From the very first sip, every single flavor shines through from the earl grey tea to the lavender to the matcha. This is so hard to do especially with lighter, floral, and fragrant flavors but they nailed it! I also tried the Iced Black Sesame Latte which was nutty, earthy, and strong. It tasted fine but not something I'd get again simply based on my preference. Their matcha drinks are absolutely superior and I'd highly recommend trying any of those first!

I love this spot overall. This is the closest coffee shop to me in upper Astoria with great vibes…read moreand adorable decor. It's super Instagrammable, I love the seats situated within the heart and all of the flowers and greenery in this place. There are a few limited food options, but overall this is a cafe that also serves beer and wine (and the occasional frose, yay). Almost all of the times I've been in here (save for this last time) service is fast and friendly - but on my last visit the guy seemed like he was struggling to get orders out and keep the line moving. There were two folks ahead of me and the first one had multiple orders, so I figured there'd be a bit of a wait. Around 15 minutes later or so it was my turn to order, and I asked about the teas. The iced options were either sweetened with caffeine, or unsweetened without caffeine - I'd been hoping for something iced and unsweetened. When I asked about green tea he said he had none made, but didn't offer making it for me as an option. We awkwardly stood there for a few moments more as I waited to see if he might say this was something he could do. Eventually I cut my losses and said thanks anyway.

However, i will say they got the flavor close but there was still a gapin the orange flavor and cinnamon, the cake was a bit more sweet than expected. The text was good, spongy and moist.
