At Biskoti Bakery and Café, dessert
isn’t an afterthought to a meal; it’s
the main event. The restaurant café
offers a fine dining experience centering
around dessert and coffee,
inviting you to sit down with friends
and family and indulge your sugar
cravings.
The café opened in mid-September on
30th Avenue, taking over the space previously
occupied by Flo Lounge. It features
over 380 pastries along with more than
52 kinds of chocolates, as well as freshly
baked bread, coffee and more treats. The
café is open from early in the morning at
7 a.m. all the way to midnight for Astorians
who might have a craving to satisfy
a late-night sweet tooth. Owner Tommy
Stagias, who grew up in Astoria, wanted
to bring a unique and special experience
for the community to be able to enjoy.
“I love my neighborhood,” Stagias
