About Niforos Coffee Shop

Located at 43-57 11th St, Long Island City, NY 11101, Niforos Coffee Shop operates as a coffee shop serving Long Island City in New York.

Coffee in the United States is served by three kinds of places: national chains with drive-thrus and mobile ordering, independent neighborhood cafes that double as a workspace or a meeting spot, and specialty shops that roast their own beans or buy single-origin lots and brew them by pour-over, espresso or cold brew. Most open between 6 and 7 a.m. on weekdays, slightly later on weekends, and the busiest hour is the commute rush before 9. A drip coffee runs a few dollars, espresso drinks and specialty pours more, and tipping a dollar or a percentage on the card reader is customary but not required. Nearly every cafe offers free Wi-Fi, though some limit laptop seating at peak times or on weekends, and outlets are often the scarce resource.

The business lists hours on 5 days of the week. The most common schedule is 6 am–3 pm. Note that it does not open on Saturday, Sunday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm.

It's 2026 and you get a great super filling breakfast at a price you cannot imagine! Toast, 2 good size hash browns and 2 eggs just for $6! Big coffee mug just for $2. Great vintage ambience and warm staffs. You guys are amazing and wish you all the great things!

This place was recommended by the Local Hostel and was very family-friendly and prices were actually amazing. I ordered 2 eggs any style, home potatoes and sausage with side of toast, all cost 9.00, very good prices and service.

Rating: 4.8/5 It’s basic, but nostalgic. Miss the old dive diners? Pretty much all the good ones are gone or have succumbed to the Instagram wave as a last resort to stay afloat. Is this place a diner or a coffee shop? Honestly, it doesn’t matter what you call itβ€”you’ll get really good, no-frills food at a decent price. The traditional Greek owners and chefs are in the back, cranking out food like it’s nothing. The service is wonderful and always felt welcome when I sat down too order. I’ve been here a few times while in the area for work, and it’s always a treat to stop by and grab breakfast on a slow morning. The BEC is amazing too (but I forgot to take a picture)

I spent one week here this summer coming for both breakfast and lunch every day as I was working nearby. It still has its old charm and at any time of the day it’s a nice spot to sit down and relax with a classic diner meal. The food quality is on par with what you pay, is filling and feels fresh. It’s cash only, but the ATM fee is only 1.75 as of Aug 24’. The service is fast and they are all very friendly inside. They play nice music too. Overall very happy with the week I spent eating here and will return whenever I can. There’s only so many nice spots like this that haven’t been corporatized left, so I recommend supporting their business. Thanks for the great service Niforos.

It is a nice place for breakfast and coffee. Portions are satisfying. The omelettes are delicious and the staff is really friendly. If you are staying in this area or passing through, you should give this place a try. Greetings to my Greek friend. πŸ˜ŠπŸ™Œ
