What People Are Saying
from Google"(4.5 stars) Doesn’t take credit cards? No place to sit? Line out the door? Given the first two, I suspected that this place must be something special for the third to hold true. Thankfully, I was right. From coffees and teas to donuts and bagels and more, Kookaburra has an impressive selection. Whether you want a simple haht cawfee or something more extravagant, they have you covered. The baristas are amicable and adept at keeping the line moving. For our first visit, my wife and I ended up with a NOLA cold brew (with chicory), a toasted marshmallow caramel latte, and a maple Berliner to share. Everything was good, and honestly not that expensive by New York standards. The coffee was smooth and not too sweet while the donut tasted fresh. Impressed, I returned the next day to snag a graham cracker latte and an Irish cream cold brew. The second round of Kookaburra drinks was just as satisfying as the first. If you’re in a hurry or really want to be able to sit inside and eat/drink, you can try the Dunkin down the street. If you don’t mind waiting a few minutes, paying cash, and taking your coffee to go, then Kookaburra offers an experience that is hard to beat."
"5-Star Review for Kookaburra Coffee Co. **Absolutely the Best Coffee Experience – Hospitality That Warms the Heart!** I popped into Kookaburra Coffee Co. while visiting the area, craving a good coffee and a few pastries to go with it. As I reached the counter, I noticed the sign: cash only. I realized I didn't have any on me – oops! The owner couldn't have been kinder or more generous. Even after I mentioned I don't live locally and wouldn't be back for months, he insisted on giving me the coffee and pastries on the house. What incredible hospitality in a world where that's rare! And the treats? Phenomenal. The coffee was hands-down the best I've ever had – rich, perfectly brewed, and full of flavor. The cornbread was insanely delicious, moist and flavorful in a way that elevated a simple classic. Then there were these gorgeous pretzel threads (like delicate, twisted pretzel bites) that were addictive – salty, crunchy perfection. This little gem in Long Island (with spots in Rockville Centre and Malverne) is worth seeking out. Pro tip: Bring cash! But even if you forget, you might just encounter the kind of genuine kindness that makes the visit unforgettable. I'll be dreaming about that coffee until my next trip back. Highly recommend! ☕🥨"
"I usually go places guided by the reviews and I’m impressed with how many stars this place has because this is the worst matcha I’ve ever had. Also my sister ordered a macchiato and they gave her iced late. Idk if this was a new employee or what but the flavor of these lattes was simply bland and lacked any distinct taste. It was like drinking water."
"staff was unwelcoming, female barista who made my drink was very passive agressive and made me feel like she didn’t want me to be there… got a matcha latte that was way too milky with barely any matcha flavor I will not be back"
"JUST OKAY! I requested a decaf coffee with cream. The lady helping me poured milk into the coffee cup. They don’t keep any sugar or supplies outside. I asked for 1 packet of stevia and found that it wasn’t sufficient for me. It would be great if they keep the creamer, sugar and supplies outside so that customers can use them accordingly. The coffee was bitter and tasted just OK."
