Amazing place for coffee, great espresso and pastries. The interior setting is small but welcoming and Zoran, the owner, is very friendly.They also make small batches of overnight oats with PB. If you are in the area this place is a must.

Nestled in the heart of Astoria, Balancero is not your ordinary coffee spot – it’s a delightful coffee shop gem.My go-to order is an almond latte, which is perfect every time, with a creamy texture and a delightful nutty flavor. The service at Balancero is nothing short of exceptional. The orders are prompt, without compromising on quality.It has a charming ambiance and fosters a great sense of community. Whether you’re a regular or a first-time visitor, you’re welcomed with a friendly smile!If you’re in search of a spot to indulge in your favorite coffee fix or simply craving a warm beverage to brighten your day, Balancero won’t disappoint. Trust me; it’s a cherished local treasure.

Just visited today and I understand the 5 star rating now. This is a fantastic neighborhood cafe down a quiet block.The owner is super friendly and engaging with both newcomers and regulars (we saw plenty of both).We got a flat white and iced latte, both of which were flavorful and balanced.The chocolate croissants were delicious and molten-hot when we got them, fresh out of the oven.Highly recommend coming here!

This is such a lovely small spot for good coffees by Italian friends in the neighborhood. They were so friendly and visitors seemed chill and relax here.Cappuccino was good, the foam was not that perfectly creamy but the taste was great.I had a sip of drip coffee, I think they picked great beans since it was blond, balanced, and rich while not too bitter or blended.And ✨✨mini donuts were sooo doughy with creamy filling!! Personally preferred the vanilla one.Definitely recommend to ya! And would like to visit again!
