50 Best Cafes near East Hanover

“We met some family at Cafe Zingara for Sunday breakfast after they told us how wonderful the food was. And they were right - it was DELICIOUS! The coconut latte and rainbow cookie latte were extremely flavorful without being too sweet. We enjoyed the Eggs Benedict, kids waffle, kids pancakes, cinnamon swirl pancakes, and breakfast biscuit sliders. Their homemade syrup is a great bonus to the pancakes and waffles. Highly recommend and we will definitely be back to try lunch next!“

“This is the best Panera I have ever been to. The food is consistently good. It's conveniently located for when I'm out shopping. And the service is outstanding.

“So far the best ‘breakfast to go’ spot we’ve been to..my kids ate before u could take pictures. The portions were very hearty, flavorful and Definately worth the price.. the pineapple ginger home made brew box was amazing. With this heat it cooled us down. Eric the owner was very patient, kind and even advised us on how to get to the city from here. 👍“

“The Barista is welcoming and made us smooth chocolate drinks! I gratefully enjoyed our pastries; the tastes are extraordinary, fresh, warm, salty sweet. Truly like nothing I have ever had in NJ! I felt my tastebuds transported to appreciate the combination of fruits, nuts, sugar, spice…I can’t wait to try the new Spring menu with another delicious drink. We are simply blessed to have The Simple Fare in Millburn🙏😋“

“We booked this for Valentine's Day evening. We are visiting from the northeast. We had the prefix menu and everything they served us was exquisite. Service was impeccable and it was very romantic. It's not in the very best of neighborhoods, but the building itself is stunningly gorgeous, and the interior even more so.“

“We have been to Made in Italy many times during all of the ownership changes. We have been for dinner, had graduation parties and gone for dessert only. We were so happy to hear that it was open at night again. My husband recently had knee replacement and was itching to get out. We decided to go for coffee/dessert at Made in Italy. He struggled to get in the car and out when we arrived. It was 8:30 Saturday night when they close at 10. There were over 15 tables open - we asked to be seated for coffee and dessert only to be told they don’t do that. They wouldn’t seat us - they gave us their card and told us to check the menu when we got home- which we did. The second paragraph of the website says - stop by just to have a cup of our gourmet coffee. They had many tables open and preferred to turn us away. Needless to say - we will not be going back.“

“Amazing Amazing place! Totally recommend this place!“

“Breakfast was so so delicious! Staff were all amazing, super kind and attentive. I will definitely be back!“

“Their smoothies are always spot on and refreshing. I also like their toast and my go to is always the smoked salmon toast. However, I noticed their bread has gotten smaller and thicker. And it was incredibly hard to cut through with all the toppings. They used to use the longer bread so it was easier to manage. Other than that, it’s a nice spot for a quick healthy lunch.“

“Absolutely delicious!! These guys are very professional, great to communicate with, accommodating and thoughtful. The only thing I regret about ordering from them was that I didn’t order more! :) Highly recommend!“

“Great food, friendly people“

“my bestie and I like to search for new places to eat. THIS place is now on our fav list! the food is astounding, the fresh carrot juice i had was delicious. The owner is warm and a delight! may he flourish here because this is going to be a repeat spot for us!“

“Best dumplings and strawberry lemonade tea ever!!<3. I definitely recommend this place. 谢谢😌“

“Traci has been in the restaurant business for over 20 years and it shows! Now that she has her own place the food and service are just about perfect.“

“Great company! We love the passion and drive they have to help their local community ♥“

“I booked Cafe Club's coffee cart for my bridal shower, and it was one of the best decisions I made! From start to finish, Andrew was incredibly communicative, professional, and helpful. He took the time to walk me through the different flavor options and helped plan all of the logistics, making the entire process completely stress-free.

The coffee cart was a huge hit with all of our guests! Everyone kept talking about how delicious the drinks were and how much they loved having a specialty coffee bar at the shower. It truly added such a fun and unique touch to the event.

Thank you, Andrew and the Cafe Club team, for helping make my bridal shower so memorable. I highly recommend them for any special event and would absolutely book them again!“

“What a wonderful, wonderful place! I am so happy I found this gem in Boonton. The food was delicious! I especially loved the guava pastries and the chicken pastelitos, everything tasted homemade and fresh. Best of all, the staff is outstanding! So happy to have found this spot!“

I had the chicken wrap with seasoned fries. It was very flavorful. It was made to order. I also had an amazing smoothie!.

I would go back over and over again!. Make sure to check out this beautiful café!.“

“What did it take for our small wedding reception to be completely worry-free? Drew and The Fruited Plain Caterers! Having an outdoor wedding reception on October 19 on our back deck could have been "hit or miss" because of the uncertainty of the weather. But Drew connected us with the right rental company and the heated tent was AMAZING! With 25% of our guests being vegetarians we needed a caterer who could deliver deliciousness to all our guests. Drew totally hit it! We opted for a family style luncheon and got raving reviews on the quality of the food. From the first contact email 12 months ago, to the last dish put away on wedding day, we felt we were in great hands with a consummate professional. Drew was flexible enough to accommodate some of our special requests, and because we were dealing with the company owner, decision-making was straight forward. His servers were professional, efficient and friendly. My kitchen was probably cleaner after they left than it was before they arrived! And if all that wasn't enough, honesty and integrity were also a key aspect of our working with Drew. He caught a staffing level mistake on our final invoice and personally delivered a refund check for the amount we had overpaid. Now THAT's someone I will be working with again, and recommending without hesitation to all my friends!“

“Absolutely! They made a wonderful dessert table for my daughters 6th birthday. We had a donut cake, and additional donuts on trays for desserts. All different flavors, and they seperated any containing nuts for my guests. They delivered it locally for us! THEY WERE SOOOO GOOD! THANK YOU!“
