Roast & Co cafe
82-60 Austin St, Queens, NY
Crema's Take
“The owner Mr. Khalit's genuine warmth—he'll invite you to stay even as he's closing on a freezing day—sets the tone for this commuter favorite that somehow feels like a neighborhood living room despite its train station proximity. Their lattes and croissants are reliably excellent, and the cute split indoor-outdoor seating makes it worth lingering even if you've only got 20 minutes between trains. Regular customers swear by the staff's memory for names and orders, which speaks volumes about a place that could've phoned it in given its captive audience.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings.
