CakeChef's Coffee & Collectibles

I can recommend many different places where you can eat deliciously..! but here! this is something! these desserts can satisfy the most picky person..! the atmosphere and service are at a high level… it’s magical here, you can even plunge into the past… remember what our parents were like, what our grandmothers were like! thank you for that!

We stopped into Coffee & Collectibles on Staten Island to browse the antiques and have dessert. It’s a cute place, also serving breakfast and lunch. All bakery goods go on sale at 4pm on Sunday. There was lots to see and the cannoli was good!

When I heard about this place, I thought it was some ordinary Cafe but when I came here for the first time I was amazingly overwhelmed by what they have. 😮👍 This place had a cafe, bakery 🥯🧁 and all the way in the back, they have an antique store. The atmosphere felt comfortable and artistic inside. They had a lot of tables and chairs but one spot had a table and couches with a big Brooklyn sign in the background.🛋️ There was a lot of books, antiques, old items and collectibles that were used for cooking and other things. 📖🪑There was even large line of rolling pins around the place. I supposed to get breakfast there. But me and a group of people from JCC got there a little late because of traffic and backtracking. So we had lunch instead. They had desserts, drinks and good dining.🥞☕🍳🍰🎂🍦 Waitresses were a little busy with our lunches, but I respected their hard-work and dedication. I got myself an avocado turkey club sandwich 🥪 There was no cheese,so my side of smashed potatoes as an alternative. 🥔 🍽️ I went inside their bathroom and it looked very fancy. 😲 It showed a little history of places that was part of cake chef. It felt like I was in another timeline from way back in the day. We met this guy who was kind of the owner of the place. He was kind and greeting with his presence and gave us a chocolate coin 🪙 we even took a picture with him. By the end of the day, we went inside their store and there were so many items that will collected from the 70s, 80s, and 90s. I was so fascinated by what they have, there was no explaining it. I might want to come back here for The full experience because this place was a great experience.😃👍😉❤️

After getting recommendations from two different friends on social media about this place, I just had to check it out myself. When I arrived in my car, the free parking lot was full, so I decided to park across the street in a neighboring lot. This told me that this cafe is busy, which is a good thing. Upon entering the front door, I was greeted to a sprawling space that was full of visually interesting decor and nick nacks. It felt like a giant living room in someone's home and this hominess instantly made me feel comfortable. It also felt like it can be a museum that displayed pieces of Americana. There was an eclectic assortment of furniture. One section had large tables and chairs while another section had sofas with coffee tables to lounge by. Every square inch of this place was visually interesting. the walls were lined with shelves displaying antiques and other collectible items. One wall displayed a giant neon sign that paid homage to Brooklyn. Even the bathroom was well-displayed with various curios lining the walls. I chose to sit in the sofa area at a small table so that I can continue writing my book. I ordered coffee, a tuna sandwich, and a fresh Italian pastry. Each item was delicious. the menu is wide and offers many kinds of drinks and food. I peeked behind the counter and noticed a huge kitchen and bakery section which was the source of all the great food. This cafe merges into an antique and collectible store that is chock-full of collectible items and other memorabilia for sale to the public. My mom and aunt love antiques. I can't wait to bring them with me the next time I visit this cafe. The only negative that I can think of is that there are limited electric outlets for those who want to work on their laptops. However, I was able to scout out two outlets at one end of the cafe.

I love the atmosphere and food is so delicious,service not that much. I asked for latte with no foam and she did exactly with foam and told me if you wanted you can drink it if not i am sorry i will not make you another one. I did said do you hear yourself,she said yes i do and you drink this or if i do make another one i will charge you again. Told her thats not my fault you do not know how to do my order. She said next to the line. Avoided me. Very disappointed and i will not go anymore

Came here with my son and was very impressed with the atmosphere. I absolutely loved it. Delicious bakery items! Cookies and danishes are fantastic. We had breakfast, which was very decent. Only one suggestion. Eating from plastic plates With plastic forks kill the experience. It’s a such a cool ambience with antiques all around you that it would make it so much more of a great experience if we can eat from plates that can also look like they are collectibles or any non plastic/paper plate would do. Otherwise, would definitely come back.

Came here with my little one for something sweet. Parking is tough to get in and out so we parked across the street and went to the bakery. Out first time, cozy and homey vibes. I got a pistachio brownie cake and my little one got a chocolate cake. Price was decent. We ate there and both were good. Chocolate cake was a bit dry. Service was good and quick. Will come back again.

The wide variety of pastries, cookies, cakes, lunch, breakfast, fresh juice, and any kind of coffee that you'd like makes this place stand out from any other café on the island. Their pistachio cookie is to die for. Their Chicken salad sandwich is delicious. The pistachio, iced latte is one of the best that I've ever had.

This place is AMAZING!!! I ate the Sallie special for breakfast which is a bacon egg & cheese with grilled onions, chipotle mayo, & avocado on delicious Italian bread. The combination of flavor was phenomenal. I also had a fresh cannoli from the bakery which was delicious. The place is gorgeous and has many antique items and is very aesthetic inside. There is also a cute couch where I saw people using their laptops. The free WiFi password is written on a chalkboard in that area. The other half of the coffee shop is an antique shop where you can purchase things. There was a significant amount of unique old collectible items. I will definitely be returning. This is a must try on Staten Island

The food here is delicious! I got the biscuit with eggs and added turkey and avocado, it was so good. The biscuit was soft and buttery, not dry like the ones you get at Popeyes. We also got the smashed potatoes which are home fries, also very delicious. For dessert I got the salted caramels brownie which was good, very cool because it had a layer of caramel on the top that remained liquid so when you bit into the brownie some caramel was unleashed, very good and unique. The store itself was cool, definitely some sights to see if you like antiques! We didn't buy anything however would definitely return as the aesthetic is awesome, very warm and inviting. Also it seems that they have free WiFi, some people were hanging out on laptops which is a cool alternative to Starbucks. I would definitely come back for the biscuit!!!

Delicious baked goods. Such a nice looking space. Friendly counter service Parking lot is small, and when full, no street parking nearby. When you have a breakfast menu with a few items and it takes 20 minutes to receive your food, place is better off just serving the bakery items and coffees.

Cake Chef's Coffee and Collectibles was an amazing brunch spot. This hole in the wall place is the perfect spot to meet for quick date. We had a wonderful time & everyone was so friendly it felt like we were in a different state. I had the blueberry pancakes. They reminded me of when I had pancakes as a child. My husband had the Italian hero. Both were amazing.

I'm a fan. No, I promise this review was written by a person. I feel like Castleton Corners has been missing a place like C&C. Now I have a solid spot to go and sip coffee with my mum, with my friends, anyone really. They have breakfast sandwiches and lunchtime salads and sandwiches. They also have pastries and ice cream. So far I've had the Italian (maybe that's the name), the Sallie Special, and the biscuits and eggs. The winner I feel is the Italian. The decor is precious, and if you fall in love with anything it's probably for sale. There are two tops, 4 + seaters and a couple of couches. I'm for sure coming back here to enjoy the ambiance.

Zero reviews? First time here and I was impressed, and I don't impress easy. Who would think, an original idea! Love the concept and the small menu......limit what you offer but make it well. I can see bands, poetry readings and crap like that in the future.......but anyhow, thanks for an original pleasant experience. Come here!

I came across this place by accident, I can't believe this shop has been here all along. Definitely a hidden gem! I got a couple pastries to go and will definitely come back to try some more! The lady who assisted me was so friendly and helpful. The ambience inside is very warm and homey. Can't wait to try their coffee and cakes!

I really do like this place and recommend it often but I've noticed a strange charge of $3.09 lately on at least 3 purchases. When I asked for an explanation the snippy little cashier actually wanted to view the security footage to see what I actually purchased. She then refunded my charges. Pay attention to what you are being charged. It seems a little scammy to me.

Definitely find lots of antiques after some coffee and food. love the environment and tranquility. Great tasting lattes and bakery goodies. Give them a visit

Another great addition to Staten Island with the same owner from Cake chef and all his other delicious establishments!!! They offer so much ! Fresh baked goods ! My kids love the big m&m cookie, my husband loves their single double chocolate cake slices and me I have sooooooo many favorites here but I lovvvvve loveeee the melt always for the fall season they have a pumpkin one I tried today after I enjoyed my delicious potato and egg sandwich on fresh Italian bread n it was all so yummy !!!! I also never leave here with my favorite iced red velvet coffee !!!! This place is a must visit !!! The best part is after you treat yourself to something yummy they have a nice antique shop in the back to browse around ! I encourage all of you haven't been get there !

Very cute place. The coffee and desserts are always fresh. Such a nice and welcoming environment to spend some time.

Fresh desserts and lovely kitchen library collection... espresso needs improvement but the smiles behind the counter are very welcoming

Excellent counter service, delicious baked goods & strong coffee! What's not to like? I 100% disagree with a previous reviewer who called the employee "nasty". In my experience they are extremely nice & even bring your beverages to your table as soon as they've prepared your order. Perhaps anyone who describes other people as "nasty" should look to their own attitude when speaking to someone. This is a place for relaxation and enjoying a tasty break. If you're in a big rush and impatient then go elsewhere. Overall, this place is high on our list of places to go for an occasional special afternoon treat!

i'm actually stunned by how fantastic this place is. i've been a big fan of antiquing in the countryside since forever, so i thought a staten island antique shore would be unreasonably expensive and trashy. absolutely not. it's gigantic, the selection is fantastic, the prices are reasonable. everything's high quality. staff are friendly and knowledgeable. it's well organized and has great finds. the desserts are delicious, but it's cake chef, obviously they're delicious. my iced matcha latte was better than starbucks (which is high praise, starbucks has amazing iced matcha lattes!). just fantastic. full props to the owners. thank you! but i wouldn't go here just for coffee and cake. the antiques are phenomenal.

Everything in bakery has one note. All tastes like one recipe. And the little nasty girls that work there I must tell you...you are not cool

While all their baked goods and food may be good but their service is horrible ! I just stood at the cake counter 10 minutes with no acknowledgement at all Until I walked away to leave when suddenly someone appeared !! Too late gotta go !

I came in and order a latte. The baristas were chatting and took longer then expected even tho I was the only one waiting for my coffee. I asked politely if my coffee was ready and she gave me an attitude. I don't recommend attending this establishment.

The vibe is here! Coffee and collectibles is a unique experience here in Staten Island. Perfect for meetups and work zones. It's food is ok 3/5. I've had the pepper cheesesteak and the grilled chicken Cesar salad.

Two out of the four items I ordered from the bakery were good. The donuts were decent, and the place is attached to an antique store, so it's a great idea. The girls are dressed in skimpy gym clothes. Wish they didn't have to, but maybe that's how they get more tips? The seating area is well decorated.

THE COFFEE WAS HORRIBLE TODAY. I ordered a cappuccino and it was pure milk and ice. Absolutely disgusting. The girls making it took so long to make it probably 10 minutes and there wasn't even a line. Never in my life has a cappuccino took that long to make. Three girls were making it too. Why does it take three people to make a cappaucinoStaff is LOST and has NO idea what they are doing. Get some staff who can actually make COFFEE. Now I'm on my way to Starbucks for GOOD coffee.

come here a few times already and it's always been great. their salads, sandwiches and coffee is really good and the antiques are so amazing!

If i could give this place 0 stars I would. Will never attend ever again. Just went to get coffee on my way to work and had a disgusting experience. The girl behind the counter with the yankee shirt, glasses and hat who claims to be the MANAGER has absolutely terrible customer service. I ordered an iced coffee with VANILLA and HALF AND HALF and when my coffee was done she read it off as vanilla and hazelnut. I politely asked the girl who brought it to me to remake it as maybe she misheard my order however the girl with the yankee hat started yelling from behind her that they do not have enough iced coffee to remake it. I took it and walked away at a loss of words at the service I just experienced. My friend stormed back up as this is unacceptable and said that the coffee was atrocious and common courtesy is to remake it considering my order was not even correct. She continued to argue about the order and insisted on us buying a new coffee. She took the coffee and threw it in the sink before finally remaking it. She then followed us back to the couch telling us that she is not starbucks and they cant afford to make another coffee. We got up and left because we were not gonna sit there and let her continue to yell at us and talk down on us. It was 8:15 am... the fact they have no iced coffee when they are a coffee place is ridiculous. And then the terrible customer service on top of that is what will lead to me and many others never coming back. The feeling of being unsafe and unwelcomed should never happen in an establishment.
