Elm Roastery

“Normally I love this place however lately the latte art has been lazier. I ordered a cookie butter latte which I have ordered multiple times before and was excited to take a cute picture of my drink however it looked like cookie crumbles were dumped all over the top of the drink. I would understand if it was a busy morning or there was a line behind me however there was no one else on line when I ordered. I know this is not their standard as I have been here multiple times in the past. This also is not the first time this happened but the previous time I attributed it to coming at a later time and close to closing time.”

“This is my first time in this cafe and I've heard good things about it so I wanted to try and see for myself. Sadly, I ordered their iced strawberry matcha and I was extremely disappointed. Not only was it expensive for its price 7$ + additional for the oatmilk BUT I didn't taste any hint of strawberry AT ALL. Sure you can taste the matcha but the strawberry? Non existent. I don't know if its the same for their coffees but I've had better matchas and sadly might not be going back here anymore.”

“Pulled up to Elm Roastery Cafe in Elmhurst like I was just grabbing a quick coffee... walked out feeling cultured, productive, and emotionally supported This place is fancy but not trying too hard. Artisan coffee that tastes like it went to school, but priced like it still lives in Queens. Cozy, clean, plenty of seating (yes, even in the back), and somehow there's always a spot--perfect for working, meetings, or pretending you're working while eating pastries. Now let's talk damage: * Teddy Bear Financier -- a teddy bear-shaped almond cake with chocolate accents. Cute? Yes. Manly? Surprisingly. Delicious? Absolutely undefeated. * Ham & cheese croissant -- baked fresh daily, buttery, classic, zero notes. * Beef empanada -- straight home run. No debate. * Cold brew -- fresh, smooth, flavorful, and didn't bully my stomach. Staff? Super kind, helpful, and actually happy to be there. Bathrooms? Clean enough to trust. Atmosphere? Warm, inviting, neighborhood gold. Elm Roastery is a major win for Queens. Come to work, come to chill, come to eat a teddy bear pastry and question your masculinity for 2 seconds before ordering another one. 83-30A Broadway, Elmhurst, Queens Support good coffee. Support good vibes.”
