Located at 69 North Village Avenue in Rockville Center, Kookaburra Coffee serves coffee, pastries, and breakfast foods daily. It is a cash-only business with no indoor and limited outdoor seating.
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.
