Madame Sousou Cafe
31-05 33rd St, Queens, NY
Crema's Take
“Madame Sousou has earned a loyal following as Astoria's go-to all-day study spot, with baristas who actually remember your order and pastries (especially the gluten-free banana walnut muffin) that taste indulgently homemade. The vibe is genuinely charming—think vintage decor, outdoor seating, and enough wifi stability to power a full workday—making it equally suited for focused studying or lingering conversations over a carefully pulled espresso. Just know that while the coffee and atmosphere are reliably excellent, recent staff turnover has made the experience slightly less consistent than its reputation suggests.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu.

I used to love this place, I would go often and I had good relationships withe baristas. All the baristas were very suddenly fired by the super rude manager. I was still going, but they changed the charming interior to a trashy looking cafe, with AI slop and everything.
My gluten free banana walnut muffin was super tasty! The blueberry muffin was pretty decent but not nearly as amazing. They taste so good that I'm a little worried that they're not gluten free. My wife loved her glutinous rhubarb pastry and enjoyed her chai latte. My iced mocha…

This is probably the most charming cafe in Astoria. From the welcoming indoor decor to the outdoor seating options, Madame Sousou is the place to go to have a coffee and pastry, and unwind. Also, it's ideal for people watching if you sit outside. The service is second to none.…
