ewephoria is stinkiest nuttiest best cheese! egg n cheese is great, also try great hill blue and everyones right about gouda
Alex BlackApril 7, 2017Not vegan. Everything is made with cheese or egg. You can't really substitute either because cheese is the main theme here.
Gouda grilled cheese-- the best! And the corn soup is amazing!- K BOctober 11, 2013Wifi turns off at 5 PM (previously 6 PM) but can be spotty. If you're coming here to utilize it, be sure to ask first whether it is actually working.
Lauren RodriguezOctober 10, 2013The grilled cheese sandwiches are die for! The bartender, Kinsey, is awesome!- You can't go wrong here. The sangwinches are unbelievable and you absolutely need to get a latte!
If you don't order the stuffing, you will be miserable the rest of you life. Do it. Be happy.
President's Day brunch. Discovered the wonderful Eggs & Cheese sandwich today !
One of my favorite spots in Astoria, but the music is louder than it needs to be. This ain't no club.
I used to love this place.. Until now. the food, it's lathered in butter and cooked to perfection. Yet, I left disappointed, annoyed and hungry. Ignoring waitress, loooong wait and small portion size
Sean SmithOctober 5, 2014The grilled cheese here is amazing and their cider/kombucha taps are crazy.
Tucker WMarch 14, 2012Delicious food and beer! Only thing you should know is that it's cash only for the time being.
k r y s t a lOctober 6, 2011Dip your grilled cheddar & mozzarella in the tomato soup! Definitely my kind of comfort food.
classic mozz and cheddar grilled cheese is the way to go!
Try the Bourganel..I swear it's the closest thing to Butterbeer I've ever tasted. The whole place is choice.
Village VoiceAugust 15, 2014Late hours. Coffee from Coffee Labs Roasters in Tarrytown, NY. Craft ales. Quality ciders. Fancy grilled cheese and brunch classics. Find all of this in Astoria at the very welcome Queens Kickshaw. Read more
Charles QuirinJuly 26, 2016Beer! More complicated coffees can be a hit or miss but the beans are good.
Daniel Holzman-TweedAugust 15, 2011Can't go wrong at this Steampunk decor grilled cheese, coffee, & beer shop! Read more
A. MartiniMarch 30, 20122nd time here, the staff are NOT friendly. I have a growler from my last visit. I made sure 2 let them know I want 2 refill. I received the check as soon as I was done w/food. They 4got 2 refill it.
Christine BAugust 22, 2013Free WiFi, but don't bother because it's the slowest in town. Coffee is strong but not the best. I think this place has begun to believe it's own hype. Comfortable and great food though...
James AllenMarch 24, 2012Don't be stuck watching someone else eat the Gouda sandwich. The others are good but that one will still make you very jealous.
Laptop squatters paradise. Electrical outlet for every desk on the left side coming in.
Nazary NebelukAugust 14, 2014Innovative beer cocktails but if you don't like cheese stay away from the food
Nick RovisaNovember 14, 2011Gourmet grilled cheese and hard cider. This place should become a Queens staple for years to come.
Wynoami GlasserSeptember 22, 2011Try the Gouda with black bean hummus, jalapeño, and guava jam. Delicious!
Sammi LangApril 17, 2011Amazing mocha! Only downside is that the guy took my money and then touched my coffee beans with his bare hands without washing them.

"This museum is unbelievable. It's beautifully curated, interactive, and engaging. You could easily spend 3 or 4 hours here, especially if you're into film & television."
Andre Plaut - 7.9
"Clean, decent theatre. Located around several dining places. Tickets seem to be a tad bit pricier compared to other theaters in Queens and Manhattan. Free parking."
Helen - 9.2
"Amazing staff, amazing selection, amazing vibe. I love this place, if it is a bit expensive. Get a growler or two, sample some beers, and bring home something awesome, or stick around for a solid BLT."
