Flux Cafe & Bar Reviews

PLEASE STOP a long-haired staff from whistling!!! He s totally OUT OF TUNE and destroyed this cafe s good atmosphere. His whistling destroyed everything... super annoying

I cannot express enough how amazing Flux Coffee is. As stated in other reviews, Long Island seriously lacks in the area of quality, local coffee shops with good vibes, good coffee, and relaxed ambiance. Flux goes above and beyond not just the Long Island area, but it is one of the best coffee shops I have been to, ever! To start the size is perfect for coming in and hanging out; there are plenty of tables, counters, couches, etc....and there are a ton of outlets! The decor (brick walls, unique tables, counters, light fixtures, art, etc.) is beautiful and all made and designed by the owner! The lighting is nice, not too bright or too dark. The coffee selection and baked goods are quality with just the right amount of options. There is also oat milk and mac nut milk available for non-dairy options...so nice not to just have soy and almond like most places! All the coffee is light roast...which is wonderful and the best coffee I have had in ages...we bought 1.5 lbs to take home! The music is not too loud and the location is perfect, not too far from the I495! Thanks so much Flux Coffee, you just made life a Long Island improve for us more than you can imagine, you will surely see us every weekend :)

The best coffee shop in the area. Super friendly staff, and even better coffee

honestly, the dirty chai was incredible and the stroopwafel donut was the best donut I ve ever had. hip place, friendly staff, & many outlets makes for cute study spot

Great service and lovely atmosphere. Interior is awesome. However I'm not fond of spending $6 on a small latte that is literally only 4oz. The coffee tased ok but definitely not worth that outrageous price.

Great quality coffee they roast themselves, freshly ground. The chai latte with oat milk is amazingly creamy. Also the owner is very charming and friendly. Tell your friends!

Came in for some coffee, had a cappuccino, and ended up leaving with two bags of beans. No complaints.

Good coffee and pastries. Nice quaint hipster place!

Just came in like 5 minutes ago. Had to write a review. Super chill guys, nice vibe, even better coffee. 10/10 would recommend.

Love this place! Really love their selection of non dairy alternatives as being lactose intolerant and having a soy and oat allergy Macadamia Nut Milk is my go to. I love their Chai Latte!

Their latte is very good, worth trying if you're in the area!

Walking off of Main St. into this local coffee shop one might think they just entered Hipster Brooklyn. But don't be fooled by the bearded baristas behind the counter. You will not encounter any such snobbery from them. Instead you'll be greeted by friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff. They're more than happy to walk you through the different coffee beans and finding you the exact bean for your palate.
I personally prefer the Bali Coffee. It is sweet and carries hints of blueberry. However, any of the blends will not leave you disappointed.
The maple doughnut will leave you wanting more. It is the perfect bite of sweetness.

If you love a light roast this place is great. I personally don t care for dark roast. The staff was friendly and the coffee was fantastic. While in town over the last month I have tried at least 4 or 5 different. My favorite has been the Columbia! Highly recommend!

I have been going to this cafe since day 1. Great atmosphere and the coffee is always on point.

The guys that work there are really friendly. I felt like I was in the city again. Simple atmosphere, great coffee.

How cool is it to almost trip over a few canvas bags of raw coffee beans while heading to the counter to order coffee? Flux coffee cafe looks like it was lifted from Williamsburg Brooklyn and dropped in the Village of Farmingdale, in order to bring a real dimension of what a coffee shop should be at minimum.
Decorated creatively with pipe and flange shelving in addition to a nice seating area inside (outdoor seating too), Flux coffee will hit you up with an awesome brew, justifying the NYC pricing template.
Best to park and enter from the back parking lot if you are driving as there is limited space along Main Street to park. Just look for the lattice wall and umbrellas when entering from the parking lot as it's hard to see the Flux sign. (Next to Lithology Brewing.)

Great staff, cool crowd, amazing coffee, and trendy place! So happy to have been a patron.

They ought to have a house drink called the Capacitor.

Think about it...it just make sense.

The warm lighting, fresh and clean interior, and softly-playing music contribute to a study atmosphere that surpasses any Long Island coffee shop that I've been to. The people are kind and the coffee is delicious, like -- is there anything wrong with this place? That being said, not every table has outlets so it's worth it to come early or be prepared to prowl a little if you are working on electricity dependent. The location is complete with group study/longer tables, single person tables, and even a couch -- truly a rarity in most coffee shops. Also, there's not much in the way of food, but light snacks (pastries and sweets) are available. I would return here if I ever passed by the area and highly recommend for coffee-drinkers and students alike.

They serve pour over coffee here, which I had only ever had in Brooklyn before. It was delicious. Would recommend.

Love the atmosphere and general look of this coffee shop. The mixture of brick, wood and metal is absolutely lovely and the big windows in front really brighten up the place.

The coffee was great and when I went they had both oat and macadamia as dairy-free milk options.

Oh yeah this place is so great! I love wasting $13 on stale coffee that tasted like absolute garbage and the latte that got my girlfriend sick. Now I quickly remembered why I haven t came back in here since this place opened. If you want good coffee try out Babylon bean or jack jacks coffee house where there coffee doesn t taste like you just sipped the acid out of a Duracell battery.

Love this local coffee shop, everyone who works there is awesome and friendly and the coffee is absolutely phenomenal. The back patio space is really cute, a lovely place to work (if you have to) or relax.

Excellent coffee and staff One of the best coffee houses in LI

I spend so much time at Flux, that I might as well move in. Dare I say the best coffee shop I have ever been to? Seriously, amazing staff and everything is made with love. Get an oat chai latte (hot or iced) and you'll thank me later (:

Great place to relax , work and enjoy some quiet and quality time. Staff members are expert coffee makers. Try a cup!!

They made the best spiced chia I ever had. Also the band Macseal slaps!! Can't hype enough.

This is my favorite coffee shop on Long Island! They roast their own beans and their coffee is soo good! They have an impressive amount of vegan milk options including oat, macadamia, and almond. They also sell pastries like mini donuts and cupcakes. Lastly, they re really zero waste/low waste/low impact friendly!! They re one of the few shops in this area that sell Keep Cups and they recently started selling reusable metal straws too. They mostly serve beverages in reusable mugs and food on reusable plates.

The best of the coffee was the way it tasted so good

Cool coffee shop well located on the main street in Farmingdale. The coffee was delicious and they had some small dessert options. Seating is slightly limited since it's a popular place. Parking is available in the back of the shop.

Great coffee and great staff! I always feel welcome here, no matter who's taking my order or preparing my drink.

Great Coffee, consistency, nice environment and customer service.

Great coffee, bright interior, plenty of seating and outlets (good to hang out and work for a few hours). It's the closest I've found on Long Island to a more urban, hip coffee shop in vibe and quality of product/service.

What a pleasure going to a REAL COFFEE HOUSE! The vanilla latte was so smooth. The "Heart work" was pure "Art work".

The place has a great vibe
It s in a great location
The nitro coffee on tap is
Definitely check it out if you re in the area

Anyone who has had a pho headache may need to steer clear of their chai lattes. They both have star anise. I also think it s a bit overpriced.

Customer service is not my favorite here at all. My brother had to use the bathroom as an absolute emergency while we were waiting to Order our coffee. We asked one of the guys behind the counter if we could please use the bathroom. He gave us a nasty attitude for no reason, telling us it was closed. He could have just nicely told us that we cannot use it, but his tone was aggressive and condescending. Won't be back!

I got gifted a bag o beans from here. I'm from the city and whenever I visit LI i have trouble finding my FIX

this coffee shop slings beans that are better than most things I've had, period.

I will visit soon and often and get more goods! See you soon ^.^

Coffee is good but needs to be hotter. Reminds me of a coffee shop in Woodstock. That's the vibe. Can't beat the brew.

Flux is fantastic. Great attention to detail in their drinks and always updating their menu. My favorite coffee shop to visit whenever I get time to do so!

Fantastic! Great FLAT WHITE Stuffs are also nice!! Best coffee in Long island!!

Amazing coffee, cozy atmosphere and friendly emoloyees!

Flux is super unique. A coffee shop like no other, something Long Island has been lacking. Always an incredible and refreshing experience. Arsalan and the guys are true masters of their craft. Very passionate and knowledgeable baristas that are always so kind, welcoming and generous. Can t begin or end my day without coming to this wonderful place. Thank you guys! I have learned so much about coffee in one year!

Not gonna lie, they have really good coffee. Get the iced mocha with oat milk

Great atmosphere. Friendly service. One of my top three coffee shops.

Ordered a very disappointing apple brie pastry that tasted like a plain croissant. Cup of plain black tea was ridiculously overpriced.

Great coffee and tea select. The owner is a super chill guy, very knowledgeable. Staff/baristas are all helpful, attentive, and friendly. It's a nice place to hang out and enjoy a coffee or tea.

they have a million outlets, all the coffee your heart desires, and the nicest owner/staff. one of my favorite places to study.

Great spot for excellent coffee. Right in the heart of Farmingdale village. Tremendous care is taken with the preparation and selection of their coffees. If you're into bright, acidic, light roasts, this is the place for you.

I went to the festival on main street today and found Flux for the first time. The coffee shop had a local feel to it. The couches and tables were comforting , sacks of coffee beans around the room were a nice decorative touch.
I ordered a Lavender Fields Forever latte, although the cup seemed small the coffee was delicious. Coffee was hot , with a nicely design "foam." The latte had a vanilla and lavender flavor that was so good I returned that night to get another cup.

Only place on LI that resembles my favorites spots in Cali. Gibraltar all the way!!!

Excellent staff, great coffee with a good amount of options including some exotic.

Cozy laid back atmosphere, chill owners, and awesome coffee. Best addition to main in a long time.

Great pastries coffee the staff are awesome , also they have Kombucha on tap different flavors weekly also with Cpd. I thank my son brandon for introducing me to flux coffee and the staff...you guys rock

Such tasty coffee, great third wave experience! Staff were great, ambiance was inviting and trendy. I want to go back so I can try the kombucha and donuts next (or maybe a waffle with fruit...).

Such a nice surprise to come across these folks in Farmingdale. Great espresso and very nice people. Much appreciated.

Love the atmosphere, friendly employees. I actually don't like coffee and there isn't a huge selection for non-coffee drinkers but I love the hot chocolate. Give the golden milk a try too!
Update: More non-coffee choices as time goes on! Right now there are flavored lemonade options, kombucha and really really great iced tea!

Iced mocha with oat milk is my new addiction. Love this place !

The coffee is amazing, the iced dirty chai latte is to die for. The staff is super friendly and the interior is modern yet homey. I would give them six stars if I could

Super friendly barista got the lavender fields latte and a maple waffle donut everything is so delicious and nice to see a place with good quality coffee here in Farmingdale with unique flavors and eclectic treats! Oh and latte art!

Hot coffee, hot cider, kombucha on tap, unique flavors and reliable standards. I've been here 2 days in a row and it is my new favorite!
Like an authentic bar, I got a buyback for my patronage. THAT was lovely<3

Small snacks, yogurts, croissants of course and a sustainable cup program for your to go orders. Bring back your cup and it is sanitized for the next time. Never saw that anywhere else how cool.

Skip dunkin donuts and Starbucks come here instead.

What a great gourmet coffee shop! Not anything like Starbucks. Quality of the coffee and the brewing is exceptional! Staff knowledgeable and helpful in making choices from many options. Free WiFi and relaxed atmosphere. Great addition to downtown.

First time at Flux over the weekend, had vanilla latter and maple doughnut was delicious definitely plan on coming back more often! Wish they had wraps or something of lunch options!

Rad spot with a ton of delicious options. Definitely give it a shot, and get something you've never tried before!

Excellent coffee. Also a great place to pick up some whole bean coffee. If you like coffee you'll like Flux.

Coffee was great and service was very professional. It's nice to be served by baristas who take pride in what they do.

Love this place! He he uses the best beans he can get his hands on without compromise. If you want a great cup of coffee/latte/whatever you found it! The staff is super friendly and helpful as well! Thanks! :)

I've enjoyed Flux for over a year now. They offer fantastic and individually prepared cafe drinks, both hot and cold. And their sweet treats are a tasty modern take on the regular cafe fair. The staff is knowledgeable about everything they put in your cup. The environment is uniquely mellow and creative. Flux is my favorite place for a weekend treat or week day pick me up.

Great coffee. Great workers. Especially given the COVID situation. Love!
