“Amazing coffee shop!“

“Had a great experience at Toast x Bowl! I ordered the Sweet & Spicy Chicken Sandwich, and it was absolutely fire. The chicken was juicy, flavorful, and had the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. I also tried the Passion Fruit Pear Fizz, which was super refreshing and paired really well with the meal. We also shared the shrimp rice bowl and truffle fries, and both were just as delicious.

The restaurant was clean, cozy, and had a really nice atmosphere. The staff were friendly, and everything came out fresh and looked amazing. You can tell they care about the quality of the food.

Definitely one of my favorite spots in Hoboken now. I’ll definitely be back to try more of the menu. Highly recommend!“

“The B E S T ! Go support (.)“

“My boys said these were the best waffles they ever had and all the toppings were in the perfect spots :)“

“This café is truly a hidden gem that deserves all the praise. Their pancakes are nothing short of phenomenal—especially the banana caramel pancake, which delivers the perfect balance of sweetness and richness in every bite. The berry pancake, bursting with fresh fruit and soft, fluffy texture, is just as incredible and a must-try for any breakfast lover.

Beyond breakfast, their Shakshuka is a standout dish. Perfectly seasoned and served piping hot with a side of warm bread, it’s the kind of meal that instantly comforts you. Whether you're a fan of Middle Eastern flavors or just want something hearty and delicious, their Shakshuka hits the mark every time.

Coffee lovers will find their heaven here. Their espresso is bold and aromatic, the lattes are smooth and beautifully crafted, and every cup shows how much care they put into their brews. It’s the kind of place where the coffee speaks for itself.

And let’s not forget about their refreshers—vibrant, flavorful, and so refreshing, they’re worth traveling for. Whether it’s a citrus mint or a fruity blend, each sip feels like a getaway in a glass. This café is truly an experience worth repeating over and over again.“

“This is a must try, we had afternoon tea and lunch. Everything was delicious, we tried the elderberry tea and it was amazing. The service was top notch. We will be going back again real soon. Definitely recommend everyone to spend the afternoon there.“

“Stopped by Julietta and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The coffee was excellent, the pastries were fresh and delicious, and the gelato was on another level, seriously some of the best I’ve had. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and everything tasted like it was made with care. Definitely coming back. Highly recommend if you’re in Hoboken.“

Since the cafe has opened I have been coming regularly and I always have a positive experience! The lattes are lovely, as are the pastries and baked goods which I have tried.“

“I go there once a month to see my friend The Doms play there! Super clean, friendly, and occasionally the dog “Bronco” is there! He’s the sweetest dog ever! But definitely a friendly atmosphere! Highly highly recommend! Even if it’s just for a coffee, tea, or latte.. they have it! “The house of coffee crack!”“

“I got a beautiful basket from Bella Beans for Mother’s Day and what a surprise!! The cookies & coffee were delicious inside and my tumbler will for sure come in handy! Thank you Bella Beans for this personalized basket you made from my Husband and kids!“

“I've become a regular at Almost Home, and there's a reason I keep coming back.

Michelle and Ari are some of the kindest, most welcoming people you'll meet. From the moment you walk in, they make you feel like more than just a customer. They genuinely create a sense of community and make the space feel like home.

My go-to order is the cereal latte with oat milk (extra sweet) and they make it perfectly every single time. They're always happy to accommodate my preferences, and the consistency is amazing. I also highly recommend the food. Top tier! Ari is the baker and let me tell you...she can bake! There are always so many goodies to choose from. I like this one more than the one in downtown JC but don't tell anyone I said that.

Great coffee, great food, and even better people. If you're looking for a local cade with incredible service and a warm atmosphere Almost Home is your spot.

Thank you guys for everything! See you tomorrow lol“

Not only did everything look great, the desserts tasted wonderful too. I highly recommend her and Jamm Events and will use her again.“

“This spot is hands down the best place in the area to enjoy some hookah with your buddies and watch any sports game. The vibe here is so relaxed, the service is absolutely fantastic, and the staff are just incredible! (Shoutout to my guy Karam)“

“Right off the bat cool, clean little place right down the street from Lincoln Park (very nice park btw) and very nice people running it, I also have to say how stylish and well kept their unisex bathroom is. Served me a breakfast sandwich at 2:30 in the afternoon called a BAC (turkey bacon, avocado, cheddar, fried egg and chipotle sauce on a croissant and it was slamming. Great menu with great prices, will definitely return and highly recommend it if you're ever in the area...their pastries looked really tasty as well 😋“

“In the past year I used Custodi to cater two parties, a Hawaiian Luau and Texas BBQ. Both times the food was delicious! Chris is so easy to work with and very accommodating with what your needs are. His staff took care of everything the day of, very professional. Our parties were a huge success and everyone raved about the food! Thanks so much Chris!“

“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. 👍“

“Very and happily impressed with this restaurant. Service, food and presentation were excellent. Highly recommended.“

“Delish coffee, pastries and service“

“Great vibe. House made syrups were delish, and they even had me sample them. Ended up with the amazing blueberry syrup in a yummy decaf iced latte with oatmilk. Had a nice fresh almond croissant as well. I look forward to trying the other options. A neighborhood gem.“

“My girlfriend and myself, retired Philadelphia Police Officers were going on a cruise on 9/12/24 out of Cape Liberty. We arrived early and were looking for a cup of coffee and a quick breakfast. Luckily we picked Une Tasse Cafe, the coffee was fantastic and the breakfast wraps and pastries were delicious. The owner was warm and welcoming and introduced us to her dog, who actually let me pet him. I wish this restaurant was closer to where we live, coffee that good is hard to find. I just ordered two pounds on their web site so that I can enjoy it at home. Hopefully on our next cruise we will stop there again.“

“Best coffeeshop in Jersey City bar none, accept no substitutes. There is actually nothing better than a morning or afternoon at Dames Coffee. This is a simple fact, and the sooner you acknowledge and experience it the better.

I have been here one billion times and I'll tell you exactly what you can expect: The nicest family ever greets you, they make you a high-quality coffee in less time than it takes for you to sit down (how are they so fast every single time?), you hang out on a beautiful patio with birds and people's dogs and comfy chairs.

Just go here, I don't know what else to tell you. They are the greatest. (Yes, the banana bread is really good)“

“The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The decor facilitates a creative space for gathering with friends and colleagues.“
