Reviews For Sweetleaf Coffee & Cocktail Bar

Sweetleaf is a really nice little cozy spot in LIC. Seems like it would be a good spot to go with some friends if some of you want to have a cocktail, but others don’t. The latte I had (maple leaf latte) was a very nice flavor and just the right sweetness. Highly recommend stopping in and checking this place out if you are in the area.

I come here all the time for coffee, and I love it here. Friendly staff and impeccable vibes. I usually get iced lattes, but today I got a mocha and my partner got the special rose latte. They were so beautiful that I had to share! And it tastes as good as it looks.

I had one of the best Cappuccino almonds. Maybe the espresso or milk, maybe both, was out of this planet. The only downside was the heat. Even though today was a warm day ,almost 60F the heat inside the coffee place was on ...WHY? And the other thing was the annoying noise from the machine in the ceiling...Very loud commercial noise....Please fix those .....It's a nice place....

I come to Sweetleaf pretty often. My wife and I think of this as our third space in Long Island City. We always go for the grilled chicken sandwich—it’s seriously so good. Super tasty, always fresh, and just hits the spot. And shoutout to Sophie! She’s usually the one who serves us and is always so friendly and professional. Big fan of this place and the sweetleaf team.

What a great coffee shop. Elegant and cozy. The staff was great, the coffee was top notch and the chocolate chip scone was delicious. The location is really beautiful, being near the Manhattan skyline views and LIC Pepsi-Cola area. Go see them and chill there. Tell em Barsnobs sent ya

Great place to come and hang out for homework, studying, working from your laptop or just catching up with a friend. They have Incredible matcha, strong flavour and excellent consistency. The vibe here is so chill in the daytime too they have a little back room “sunroom” that you can sit in and enjoy the comfy cushioned lounge area, and bask in the sunlight through the window great customer service too, staff is friendly and well mannered I sat here with a friend and chatted for almost two hours without being interrupted or disturbed by other patrons or staff which was wonderful!

The avocado toast was much better than I had expected. It was rather simple compared to other places, but an excellent combo of flavors and an almost perfect amount of crunch on the toast made for a fabulous meal. The two sunny side up eggs were extra for 3 and were delicious as well. Overall I had presumed the food to be closer 3 , at best 4 , but I'm going with 5

During my stay at my friend's place in Long Island City, she recommended Sweetleaf for coffee, and I’m so glad she did! The design of the cafe is charming and inviting, making it a great spot to relax. I especially loved the spacious outdoor seating area, perfect for enjoying a cup of coffee on a nice day. Not only do they serve excellent coffee, but they also have a selection of cocktails and food that looks tempting. It’s a fantastic place to unwind with friends or just enjoy some time to yourself. I highly recommend checking out Sweetleaf if you’re in the area!
