    An airy and friendly place for tea/coffee after strolling in the Gantry Plaza State Park in LIC. Cash only. Ask for the WiFi password at the counter. It was purplemonster on Sep 12, 2013.

    One of the few places that has pimento cheese sandwiches! Southern Pro Tip: If you go with the sandwich, ask for a huge hunk of pimento spread instead of the other cheeses they offer.

    Scones of the day and a laid-back, signature twist on silver-trayed tea service make this a popular grazing and working spot for local families and freelance creatives.

    Great local spot for some tea or Irving Farm Coffee. The apple-walnut chicken salad sandwich is one of my all-time favorites. Wifi available. Cash only!!

    If ordering the breakfast burrito, ask for a side of the chipotle dressing that comes on the salad - gives great flavor without much heat. (Or ask them to fold it in.)

    While you can't bring your dog in, they do leave a water bowl outside and a comfy bench where you can tether your pooch. For lunch try the Turkey Reuben.

    Brew of choice: Irving Farm Coffee. Great atmosphere to bring work or the newspaper, and a surprisingly extensive breakfast and lunch menu.

    I like their iced caramel latte. The regular iced coffee has a flavor that tastes just slightly off to me.

    Try the Spring Jasmine Salad and if you don't like chickpeas like me, substitute for beets... A delish choice!
