Northside Coffee Staten Island Reviews
Went there for brunch with my sister. We both ordered their avocado toast and added eggs and bacon. The portions were super generous. I actually took it home and had some later. The bacon was so crispy just the way I liked it. There was so much avocado unlike some places that skimp! It was delicious. I also ordered their iced cappuccino which was so yummy. The guy that worked in the front was super nice too. I noticed they serve craft brews. Might try it next time. Cute and cozy little spot. Will definitely visit again.
Great coffee that does not taste bitter or burnt. Avocado toast was delicious made from super fresh ingredients. Good sized portions, fair prices and friendly customer service.
Was hanging out with a homegirl and decided to take a walk to this coffee shop and I’m glad we did! Workers were friendly and welcoming. Good vibes and nice lil outdoor seating area towards the back of the shop! Food and coffee were yum. Great spot to catch up with a friend - highly recommend!
The coffee and food were absolutely delicious. I particularly savored the avocado toast, iced coffee, and burrata toast. It's refreshing to support independent coffee shops rather than just opting for Starbucks or Dunkin'.
Great neighborhood coffee shop with friendly service and an impressive food menu with big portions. My go-tos are the acai bowls and the chicken soup.
Good local spot, come here, coffee is much better than Starbucks and service is great. The also have patio in the back 😍

This place came highly recommended by Urban Fairies of Staten Island (Alycia) and after my visit, it did not disappoint! I will be a repeat customer! Our breakfast was tasty with generous portions and the Cafe was outstanding! Service with a smile, staff very friendly!
Food was absolutely amazing. Staff is super nice, quick and professional. Atmosphere is nice but the inside is a bit HOT. Sitting outside was a lot more comfortable. Great place. 10/10
Came here for Sunday brunch and really enjoyed the service and environment. We got the bacon egg and cheese wrap and a western omelet and were very delicious. I really liked their home fries. Food came pretty quick and staff were very friendly.
The coffee is so good. The food is so good. The staff exceeds even my old school service standards. They’re also friendly, they’re also helpful, they’re incredibly welcoming and generous with their time and advice. I’m already a regular and I will continue to be so.
Great place with a welcoming atmosphere and excellent coffee. Highly recommended.
If you’re looking for great neighborhood coffee shop - look no further. 5 stars all around from the coffee, food, staff and atmosphere. The backyard patio season is right around the corner and I can’t wait to enjoy an ice cold beer while listening to some local, live music!
I absolutely love this coffee shop—it checks all the boxes. The food is fantastic, the service is top-notch, and it’s the perfect spot to get work done. I especially enjoy the healthy options. If you’re stopping by, don’t miss the egg white omelette—it’s delicious. Also, the owner Juan is a true gentleman—service with a smile.
🌟 The best local neighborhood spot • A Must-Go 🌟 High quality espresso from OSLO Roasters. I even buy the beans from them for coffee at home. The drinks are always crafted with care and they circulate creative seasonal drink specials. ☕️ The kitchen is outrageous! The chefs keep it interesting with weekly specials. One of my recurring favorites is the chorizo breakfast burrito. The chicken avocado club is also a favorite of mine. 🌯 And they are always hosting fun, creative events! You never know what event Juan, the owner, has up his sleeve. From live music after hours to local artisanal vendor markets and ceramic class pop ups, Northside has really ingrained itself in the community. ❤️
Went to Northside Coffee to see CatNip Live Music who were incredible! Northside has great food, coffee and drinks and Juan and his staff are amazing! Be sure to support this local small business!

Today I came to this place for a jam session, last week I met the owner of restaurant and he was invited me to today jam session. It was a great time with musicians we enjoyed our jam session every other Friday they do a music and drumming session. And we so some comedians did a show and they were so good we had a great time with them. We had couple of beers and some appetizers, we like the food we enjoyed it. Thank you guys

Enjoyable coffee, good prices. Maybe the tres leches latte was a bit too sweet, but their cortado was good, espresso pulled well.
I gave their Iced Spanish latte a try. The flavor was excellent, with the perfect level of sweetness - refreshing on a hot summer day. I got there hungry, so I also tried out the club sandwich, which, surprisingly, did not include any ham. The thick portion of chicken was a bit dry but still decent. The highlight of the meal was the thick-cut fries—crispy, fresh, hot, and a perfect pairing with the sandwich. I'll give this place another shot to sample more of their breakfast offerings and will update!
Food is amazing just wanted to update people that they have REMOVED their vegan options. They no longer provide vegan options of their dishes. Disappointing but their non-vegan food is always always delicious. Just wanted to spread the news!!!

This is a very pleasant and small cafe. I've been coming here for a couple of years. It is very convenient if you would like to use the space for remote work or just reading. The atmosphere is also pretty chill, sometimes having live music on the weekends but its always a pleasure, never a disruption. I do like the fact that the food menu has expanded. I do wish the coffee and other drinks were either stronger or made with a different brand. I've haven't enjoyed a beverage yet but have enjoyed the food. 4/5 will recommend
For a coffee shop, the drinks are pretty underwhelming. My hot drinks tasted a bit watery, with very little espresso flavor. It seems like the ingredients might not be the best quality, as the milk and overall texture feel less rich than what I usually get elsewhere.

I consider myself a relatively polite person, but I have to post this review. I can confidently say the mushroom Swiss burger is probably one of the worst burgers I have ever had the displeasure of eating. They gave me these two dry over cooked patties smashed onto a dry, stale bun. Rude staff and terrible attitudes. Don't bother eating here. I used to love coming here. I will be looking elsewhere.
