Astoria

This tiny Astoria nook pulls serious espresso through a Slayer machine, served by staff so kind they might slip you a complimentary mini donut. Three standing tables inside mean you'll likely take your cortado to the sidewalk bench, swapping neighborhood gossip with regulars who come by first name.
