I absolutely love coming to this cafe! Manny is always a pleasure to speak to and he always greets you with a smile!! When I come in he has my cafe already made for me. They have the really good Aperol spritz as well as a variety of fresh baked goods that is made daily. He definitely knows his customers very well. Manny is so accommodating and goes above and beyond to make you experience and amazing one!! If you’re by the LIC Hunters Point area stop in and try them out. Tell him Joy sent you🫶🏾
