Coffee Monster - Whitestone

I absolutely adore this place!! I drive all the way from Hofstra University to study here & it is worth it - coffee, drinks, & food here are amazing!! Staff is wonderful & welcoming, HIGHLY recommend this place to everyone!!

Amazing drinks and great value for the price! Workers are always kind and it is a fantastic place to study and chill

My friend and I had a great experience here. The staff was friendly and extremely helpful and attentive. I ordered the taro bubble tea and the tiramisu latte. My friend had a peach tea with boba and almond honey croffle….My tiramisu latte was amazing! Truly addictive… I’m still craving another. The taro bubble tea was milky and not too sweet. The croffle was delicious… it looks like croissant dough baked in a waffle iron. Crispy on the outside with those flaky buttery layers inside. The almond honey topping was light and sweet. We also topped ours with vanilla bean ice cream and whipped cream. Divine. I wish I took pictures but we gobbled it all up so quickly! Also we grabbed a pouch of the mini chocolate chip cookies and those were yummy, they held us over until the croffle. Also the ambiance is very relaxed, clean. Other patrons were working on laptops, reading, chatting, one couple was dining with their baby in a stroller. Bathroom was very very clean. I highly recommend!

While two people took 20 minutes to do two drinks for me and my friend one of them were calling on the phone and not doing anything while the other took 5 min of those 20 we were waiting at the last mins 🤬🤬🤬 never coming back

Love the service very pleasant.. the Croflle was perfect not too sweet and the spicy chicken panini was very tasty . Cheese melts in your mouth and of course the coffee was excellent.. I don’t live nearby but if ever I’m in the neighborhood again I would definitely go back and I can’t wait!

I have been to Coffee Monster on and off many times. The coffee tastes better than Starbucks, the sizes of the drinks are bigger than Starbucks, the people are nicer than they are at Stsrbucks. I read some of the reviews and have never experienced any of the negative things others report. All employees are very nice and always say hello and smiling. Based on the last year or so and the fact that they had to put up a sign thats says they reserve the right to refuse sevice to anyone hostile and aggressive, I'd say the complainers are the ones with these issues.

Guys, you go to a coffee shop for coffee and pastry. Get over yourselves. You're not owed anything other than what you paid for. I ❤️ this coffee shop.

First time there, coffee and food was good, but workers seemed just absolutely miserable. I was excited bc I went out of my way for this place. asked what’s a popular specialty drink flavor that they have…looked liked I truly bothered them asking this question. Answer: “vanilla.”
Ok thnx.

As a business owner I understand how important my employees are to my companies bottom line. I discovered this place while on an afternoon walk with my wife a few months ago and it seemed like a great find. We’ve been here a handful of times for some shaved ice, which is actually very good btw. Recently went in for some around 835pm, waited in line to place my order (around 839pm). When the young man asked me what I wanted I ordered the mango shaved ice, when the young woman heard my order she immediately scoffed and walked away. The young man repeatedly asked her a question in their native language while she ignored him. He then proceeded to walk away and have a private conversation with the woman (I could still see you bro). When he returned he informed me of this policy they had decided to implement that they do not take shaved iced ordered after 840pm. It is now 841pm mind you and he spent the last 2 minutes speaking to the woman. I begin to argue the point a little but I figured hey it’s not really worth it. I started To walk out the door as he yelled “Wait you wanted Medium right?!” No thanks buddy. Just to make a point, the people before me ordered the expect same item. Regardless of the fact, the place makes good items but their employees are just terrible. Even the handful of times I’ve gone they have just been nothing but rude and dismissive.

The Nutella iced coffee is the best drink I ever taste.

Coffee is great but poor selection of other goodies.
