Been here before for brunch, but stopped in last night for drinks. The bartender was excellent - super friendly and helpful with advice on drinks - and the Spritz Please was absolutely delicious with an amazing cherry flavor. Also had the fried pickles, which had a bit of a kick to them. Excellent spot to grab a drink.

Great spot with delicious food and a beautiful ambiance! The burger was well-seasoned and cooked nicely, though slightly on the dry side. The fries were absolutely perfect, and the popcorn chicken hit the mark--not too crispy or oily. Worth a visit!

This is a cute neighborhood spot with a Southern inspired menu. I enjoyed it when I first came here years ago and came for brunch just a few weeks ago. They have a bottomless drink option for brunch for just $20 which is a great deal if you're gonna have more than one drink. I like that they don't require the entire table to participate because not everyone wants to have more than one drink or want brunch drinks. We ordered fried pickles for the table. They were lightly battered and the sauce was delish. I ordered the fried chicken biscuit and it was very good. Everyone was happy with their food. I don't remember the name of the drink I ordered, but it was good. Service was very friendly. All in all a great spot.

Fantastic brunch. We tried a few of the specialty cocktails and every one was better than the last. The green eggs and ham and chicken and biscuit were both really delicious too.

I've been to Sweet Afton several times over the last couple of years, and find myself continue to wanting to return. This spot is an Astoria staple, and I really love coming here for brunch and happy hour. The vibe is laid back and rustic. For brunch, I really enjoy the Biscuit & Egg sandwich and Avocado Toast. The Hand Cut Fries with Malt Mayo is also a must-order because their Malt Mayo is so delicious! I've also had a number of cocktails here, and they were all really well crafted. I particularly love the Espresso Martini. The service is always friendly and attentive. While parking in the area can be a bit tricky, I still look forward to returning to Sweet Afton soon!

This spot was cute, casual, had strong drinks and good amounts of food. Tried the Palermo and the shrimp tacos. Both were good. The cocktail wasn't overly sweet or sour, so it was refreshing. Food was a bit small. Good for me but could be too little for others. Service was generally good.

Would recommend, I'm never in Astoria visited Sweet Afton on a date. Service was great very attentive, friendly and gave good recommendations. Drinks were made perfectly not too strong or weak, the dirty pickle does have that pickle juice taste but if you're ordering it I'm sure that's what you're into. Fried chicken sandwich was good, the flavors are there but the coleslaw overpowered the chicken and made the breading soggy so the crispiness wasn't there anymore. I wasn't a fan of the bread on the sandwich either tasted too buttery, I ended up removing it.

Definite GEM in Astoria. Mature crowd, great cocktail lineup and craft beers along with really good bar bites. Before mentioned is the perfect recipe for a great local establishment. Staff is really friendly and patient. Parking around the area is a bit difficult but nonetheless definitely worth a trip, or two, or three.
