Communitea - Long Island City

This café serves and sells Irving Farms coffee, one of my favorite coffeemakers in Millerton, NY. I have the 71 House Blend, a medium roast that is both smooth and deliciously aromatic. Every 12 oz. Bag of whole beans costs about $16 and the café will grind it all for you if you have no grinder at home. I would recommend to call in advance to make sure that they have a bag of what you are looking for, just in case I was lucky enough to get the last bag of the House Blend on a late Sunday afternoon. I haven't set myself for a bite or a drink, but the café has a scenic mood and I come back to a little bite and latte on my next visit.

Nice cafe! Bright, clean, and open. Ordered a Vanilla Matcha Latte and Salmon Toast. More of a lunch spot rather than coffee shop. Pretty good

Overall food selection is good and healthy. Everything is fresh. Tried the seasonal pumpkin matcha latte, very interesting combination and tasted good. food was healthy for sure, but that will be as expected with little seasoning so a bit plain.

A neighborhood gem. My favorite breakfast/brunch spot in LIC. Their rose matcha latté is what matcha dreams are made of, the breakfast burrito with mushrooms is umami heaven, and I so wish that the impossible lasagna would become a permanent menu item. I had it as a daily special and honestly will never forget it. 10/5 stars.

Super friendly atmosphere to grab coffee or tea and get a little work done. I'm a huge fan that it offers several vegan pastries food and the atmosphere is great with open spaces and ample lighting. Would definitely keep going back! I ordered a large chai masala latte with oat milk and a vegan berry crumb bar. The chai was good (more authentic and ranks as much better than Starbucks) and the crumb bar is also good but too sweet. I appreciate that the staff was friendly enough to offer recommendations for which pastry would best complement my drink. Absolutely PERFECT for getting work done! Highly recommend as there are outlets throughout the cafe, the space isn't too loud distracting, and even the single tables are large enough to fit a laptop and small notebook. There's free wifi and a clean bathroom if needed. Coffee and tea prices are on par with other local cafes (approx. $3-6) but it's disappointing that there's additional fees up-charge for iced versions of a drink and or plant milk substitutes.
