18 Best Cafes near Allentown

“So glad we stopped in! Woodys was exactly what we needed after a long day of driving. Walked in and felt like home. Our server Chelsea was such a puddin’ start to finish. The hot turkey sandwich and waffle sundae put me into a perfect food coma. Best stop on our trip. Much luck to you!“

“Full disclosure, i am a meat eater, but really love the vegetarian/vegan options they have here. I just had their vegan taco salad and could not tell it did not contain meat. It was delicious!“

“Great, friendly place! Best coffee in area! No known alien abductions, but definitely a possibility!“

“Ellie's Speedway's All Star Bagel Shop & Charleston Coffee House is the best place in all of Central NJ. I've been a loyal customer for 2 years & not only do they make the greatest breakfast sandwiches we've ever had, but they have an amazing staff. Their sandwiches & cold brew beat any other shop around by far. They load you up on bacon & always have the freshest bagels you've ever tasted. The staff is the sweetest & will always remember you, and the atmosphere is always homey. Can't speak highly enough!“

“Shreya, along with Lilly, Colina, and Sasha, made the experience at Bluestone Lane Café in Princeton feel warm and genuinely attentive from start to finish. The Soft Chili Scramble with Avocado, Aussie Best is the standout, featuring fluffy eggs with a nice chili flake heat alongside a generous arugula salad, avocado, and seeds, while the Athlete’s Burrito was delicious and hearty with lentils. The potato wedges with BLATE and the lemon ricotta pancakes were both excellent, and the smooth coffee with a well made cappuccino rounded out a terrific meal.“

“Went for the first time 2 years ago and have been back just about every Friday since! Go for the incredibly unique and delicious pies, sandwiches, galettes, cookies, cakes, etc. and stay for the equally as amazing hospitality and service. The staff here feels like family and goes out of their way to ensure every Friday is as amazing as our first visit! Our family loves the excitement of waiting for the menu to come out every Thursday to see what new creation they’ve come up with and what delicious classics will be available.“

“This coffee shop is amazing! The owner is wonderful. She recently came to our apartment at The Parc at Princeton Junction for a wine and truffle tasting for Valentine’s Day and it was a fabulous event. So my boyfriend and I decided to stop by her coffee shop and try it out and was I blown away! The coffee was absolutely wonderful! The atmosphere is amazing!

“Great, not hover-y service. Generous portions of super yummy food. Their menu has a great selection of savory and sweet, along with twists on some originals to keep things fresh like their salmon eggs Benedict, shrimp and grits, and their banana cinnamon swirl pancakes- which are all delicious! I love the whole concept.“

“Consistently Excellent!

I had a fantastic experience at Panera Bread today. The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, and prepared exactly as I ordered it. What really stood out, however, was the service. Every staff member I interacted with was friendly, efficient, and genuinely seemed happy to be there. It's a pleasure to dine in an establishment where both the food and the customer service are top-notch. I highly recommend it and will definitely be returning soon!“

“This Cafe is inside the Grounds of Sculpture. Its themed as per its namesake. You find the famed paintings of Van Gogh on its ceiling and walls. There is alsi a life-size statue of Van Gogh outside the cafe. The pastries , they offer, are decent too.“

“It has a nice atmosphere, friendly staff, clean tables, and reasonably priced and delicious food. I like toasted bagels. Another nice thing is that there are power outlets at most tables. You can charge your laptop and work as if you were in the office, which is what I do :)“
