50 Best Coffee Shops near Colonia

“Boston Cream is my favorite, all 300 calories.......Lololo♡ Went for a walk afterwards♡“

“Love it!!� ����������“

“Great location great business grade coffee downtown , Cranford the best“

“Great place! A coffee hangout for the post modern beat generation !“

“The Grind is my favorite local coffee shop! I never miss an opportunity to tell my friends about it! The girls are always super sweet and my coffee or matcha are always 10/10! For a coffee shop in Tottenville I also feel like the prices are reasonable! Only downside is that the parking can sometimes be difficult if it's a school day.“

“Highly recommend Lidios for all of your floral needs! Maria put some beautiful arrangements together for me for multiple events, and her work is truly spectacular! The flowers always have guests talking and always add a special touch. 💐🎉“

“I ordered a maple cold brew with pistachio cold foam from their winter menu and a few donuts. It was all delicious!“

“Koko Loko Coffee is such a calm little escape.
I had the pistachio latte and it was fantastic balanced, nutty, and not overly sweet.
The barista was warm and welcoming, which really adds to the overall vibe. Inside, it’s bright, minimal, and quietly buzzing, perfect for reading, working, or chatting without yelling over noise.
Loved the long communal tables and clean, modern décor. If you’re looking for a peaceful spot with great coffee, this place absolutely deserves a 5-star stop.“

“Amazing Food and service !!“

“Not being from the area (South Jersey), I've wanted to try LeGrand Coffee House for quite a while now. So on a trip up to NY a couple days ago, we finally got the chance to stop in on our way up the Parkway. This place is amazing! This beautifully-decorated coffee house had some of THE best coffee I've ever had in my entire life. I got TWO lattes while I was there (a French Vanilla and a Honey Almond). My family and I also got the chicken pesto sandwich, and it was absolutely delicious. My daughter had an iced chai tea latte and loved it. DEFINITELY get to this place if at all possible! Two thumbs up!!“

“They treat you well!! Stop by and see for yourself.“

“Great spot for coffee and the owners are super friendly.“

“Loved the shroom sando and the cold brew“

“My favorite place in New Jersey, I love spending my weekend afternoons here, food and coffee is amazing but the people it’s something else… you may see someone reading, someone else studying, a group of friends and even a person watching a movie with a cup of coffee in their hands. Love this place a lot“

“I have been a customer for two years now, and I really enjoy the taste of their coffee beans. They’ve recently expanded their menu to include a variety of new items, like a delicious hash brown. I’m also excited that they’ll be introducing their sandwich menu very soon.“

“Loved this cute little place!!! My daughter and I were out and about, and wanted to get some coffee, but not from the regular “chain” coffee shop, so after a quick search, we headed to Metuchen. We were lucky enough to get parking right outside, and walked in to be pleasantly surprised by the esthetic vibe. Everything was super clean, and we were greeted right away by the super friendly employee. My daughter ordered a cappuccino and I got iced coffee. We also got a cheese and pesto savory pastry and a passion fruit and coconut tres leches dessert. Everything was delicious!!!!! Thanks for the enjoyable experience. We will definitely return.“

“Nice atmosphere. Both pictures groups. I love Pink floyd beetles“

“Brewed Awakening is the perfect spot for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The food is consistently delicious, and some of my favorites include the BLT Sandwich (always made to perfection), the omelettes, and their Apple Caramel Butter Latte—a delightful seasonal treat. I first discovered the latte through a social media post a few weeks ago, and now Brewed Awakening has become my go-to spot every Sunday for a relaxing meal. The service is always warm and welcoming. Annie, the owner, often makes an appearance on the floor, either serving or checking in with guests to ensure they’re enjoying their visit. Her kindness and genuine hospitality make the experience even more special. I highly recommend stopping by Brewed Awakening for a delicious meal and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Owners are super nice and the service was quick and kind! Very nice place to go to eat some yummy halal food with mexican addition to it! I got the mango smoothie and it was thick and yummy! Korean corndog too as well as the chipotle chicken salad“

“I'm a regular here and it's always a pleasant experience. It's one of two locations that I frequent most and since I'm traveling throughout the day and night depending on the day of
Week I know I can depend on them to be open and prepared to serve! Every one of the employees are friendly, kind and considerate working quickly and efficiently in a timely fashion** plus side**it's always nice to be greeted by a smiling face ..a hard working employee who actually puts effort into the job aiming to please the customer not always the case at
Other locations or in general . My only complaint here: the surroundings the environment is run down and looks dirty ...hardly appealing to new residents or potential customers coming thru the neighborhood would be easily turned off by the way the atmosphere is kept and the lack of nicely kept landscaping - esthetically investing in A major overhaul and some system of cleanliness of the drive thru area would be extremely helpful and ideal. If you go elsewhere you find this to be less an issue. Thank you to all the staff members who do the job well and have been apart of my day in a big way...a friendly hello, and getting my order right is not a lot
To ask for and truly makes my day! ?“

“Incredible food made from scratch everything cook on premises Man size portion“

“By far the best pastéis de nata I’ve ever had! Thanks for bringing us a little taste of Portugal. Can’t wait to try the bifanas🇵🇹🇵🇹“

“Pana House Restaurant is a fantastic spot for Venezuelan food! I had the pabellón, which was delicious with tender shredded beef, black beans, rice, and fried plantains. The Venezuelan sample platter was also great, featuring tasty arepas, empanadas, and tequeños. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff is friendly. Definitely recommend checking it out!“

“Penstock is great. Their tea is awesome and it always hits the spot. Also, the staff is very helpful and down to Earth.“

“Such a great vibe. I felt comfortable doing work there on my laptop. Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent coffee and chai. I am enjoying the whole bean coffee I bought for home from them. Plus, the sweet treats are delicious and they have yummy vegan options.“

“El menú es rico y variado , buena atención.😍🙏“

“Such a great little place!“

“Have been here multiple times since we moved to the area 2 years ago and have always been more than satisfied. The food is always delicious no matter what we get (too many amazing dishes to name!)

Tip: if you're going on a weekend, to avoid a long wait, call ahead to be placed on the waitlist!“

“What a pretty coffee shop with plenty of comfortable seating and simple, easy to read options for coffee and gelato. Came here close to around noon on a Sunday when the place was empty. The barista seemed friendly and just the right demeanor for a coffee shop.

Capuccino is just right in taste but lacked in design. This is not a deal breaker but just one of those cutesy things that I enjoy in a capuccino that sets one apart from the other coffee shops. Little snacks like cookies and muffins are also available to go with your coffee.

Street parking only in this booming downtown area of Rahway not too far from the train station.“

“Best rainbow cookies on the island!“

“A gem tucked within a perfectly walkable distance from Rutgers and downtown spots. Their grilled chicken sandwich is a savory standout: juicy, spiced just right, and served warm with a satisfying crunch. I love to pair it with a cup of Kashmiri Kahwa which is fragrant saffron-infused tea that’s both soothing and subtly floral. The ambience blends South Asian charm with modern comfort, making it ideal for both quiet solo visits and lively catch-ups.“

“The Food Is Absolutely Delicious !! I loved it! Food is absolutely delicious I loved it !!God bless that business, Thanks for the excellent attention and kindness (Isaac) [Original] The Food is absolutely delicious!! I loved it! La comida es absolutamente deliciosa me encantó!! Dios bendiga ese negocio , gracias por la exelente atencion y amabilidad (Isaac)“

“I’m not sure how that was the best bacon, egg, and cheese I’ve ever had, but it was. I could’ve eaten two easily. Chai tea there is also fantastic. This place deserves more patrons than it gets. That, plus it’s clean, cute, comfortable, and friendly.“

“Ammmmmmazing! I’ve been a loyal customer from the beginning and they always hit the mark! Love seeing new stuff and always always always friendly faces with 5 star coffee!!“

“I went with 2 friends on a holiday so it was busy but we had no problems. We were able to get a table inside but it is a little bit small so I wouldn't go on a holiday or weekend again. The pistachio crossiant I had was delicious and so was the cappuccino.“

“Brenda, who works the cashier at the Paris Baguette is seriously amazing! I went in last week during the afternoon rush, and despite the chaos, she was super friendly and helpful. It's not just that she's efficient at ringing people up; she actually makes you feel welcome.

I was having a tough day, and her cheerful attitude totally turned things around. She recommended the mochi donuts, which were delicious, by the way! You can tell she really enjoys her job and cares about the customers.

Honestly, in a world where customer service can sometimes be lacking, Brenda shines. She's a total asset to that Paris Baguette, and I'll definitely be back, not just for the pastries, but also for the great service!“

“Perfection is an understatement. Kudos!“

“I Recommend their Classic Espresso Blend.“

“I got a cheesesteak and the beef empanadas and it was so fresh and delicious. The cheesesteak was better than the cheesesteak I had in Philly. The empanadas are really the best, I had to read the reviews first before getting them but definitely try the empanadas. They just taste so juicy and crunchy and bomb.“

“Today, I tried Gregorys Coffee in NJ for the first time. The seating was comfortable, and they had plenty of room for groups of all sizes. The atmosphere was cozy, and the decor was nice. The coffee was good, but not the best I've had. Overall, it's a solid spot to grab a cup of coffee.“

“Had an amazing latte here for the first time last week. I was fabulous!“

“Great Food Excellent Service!“

“Nice little spot where there's not much else around so its super convenient. Finally stopped by for an iced cold brew and it was really good. Great friendly service, would definitely stop by again. It's a trailer in the parking lot of the Willow Grove church, you can't miss it.

Parking: Church parking lot, free.“

“We were looking for Brasilian salgadinhos to snack on during the Copa 2024 Brasil game. We found a large assortment at Cafe Cirino.
It’s a small place, with tables. A surprisingly large menu, with lots of choices. Gabriela took our order, which was made on the spot and well packaged for the trip home.
Paid parking across the street.“

“We had a delicious food at this place today. I highly recommend it.
The chicken with vegetables was delicious
And the expresso coffee jus as expected.
Kenia was our server and she was formidable.
I’ll definitely be back to try all other lunch specials.“
