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

“First time here- food does not disappoint. All of the employees are helpful and courteous. They get very busy but even with the volume and a little bit of a wait, they try to be as timely as possible. A lot of gluten free options, all allergies clearly labeled. We’re hooked and will be back!“

“Ginger cardamom scones! Actually, all the scones are delicious. Coffee beans are roasted in a facility in Rocky Hill. Our favorite is the dark roast. Shop local!“

“Great place! Coffee is amazing and their matcha drinks are the best. If you’re ever craving something cold and fresh that’s the place to go’“

“I don’t think that there is another place in the US where you could get such delicious pies. These pies are world-class and the chef clearly is creating masterpieces with the blends of flavors that are achieved. Some of the flavors sampled include Thai tea custard, citrus raspberry chess, honey walnut, and pineapple coconut lime. Fantastic!“

“Great service, very good quality of food“

“The crepes taste good and are reasonably priced for a shop in Princeton.“

“Charming little cafe with excellent food and service 😊“

“Good food“

“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!“

“awesome food and great service!“

“Came in primarily to try their wings - they did not disappoint! If you like crispy wings smothered in buttery buffalo sauce, this is your place. The chicken tenders and hand cut fries were also very tasty. Next time I’d pass on the hamburger and grilled chicken. Maybe the Kaiser roll is too much bread for the amount of meat but the taste just wasn’t just there.“

“Food , service , ambiance was wonderful .“

“Wood Craft catered an event at Princeton during reunions and it was fantastic. I had pulled pork, ribs, chicken, and mac n cheese. Fantastic, tasty, tender. I took their card and hope to get my department at work to order from them.“

“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!“

“Had a wonderful experience at The Coffee Club. The ordering process was smooth and efficient, and the menu offers a nice variety of drinks and light bites to choose from.

The coffee was well-made and flavorful, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. It's perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done. Seating was comfortable, and the space felt clean and well-maintained.

Service was friendly and attentive, which really added to the experience.“

“too expensive, horrible service, arrogant and ignorant staff. unless you have 15 minutes to wait for a simple coffee and muffin while these igorant people commiserate with college students, dont bother patronizing this place. $15 for muffin, coffee and tip makes Starbucks seem inexpensive.“

“Very clean, great service, great food and the best bagels! what else an you ask for in a bagels store?“

“This cafe is soooo cute. The food was delish. The coffee is better than any coffee I’ve had. Sarah, the manager, was so sweet and so accommodating when we came in. I highly recommend this place whether it’s for a quick bite to eat, or meeting with co workers or anything in between. 10/10 recommend and will be back for sure!“

“Joined the waitlist prior to arriving worked out perfectly. Only waited about 5 mins when we arrived. Staff was very nice. In addition to our waiter multiple staff members checked in on us to see if we needed anything. I had the lobster shrimp and grits. It was delicious. I will definitely be going back.“

“Last night was our first time at Pastiamo's and our experience was fantastic from start to finish! The food was absolutely delicious -- Burrata, Gnocchi Pesto, Penne with Walnut Sauce and Rigatoni Ragu were especially everyone's favorites. The staff was polite, attentive, and so patient, even when we stayed past closing time. Thank you, Francesca and team for making our night so special. I highly recommend this restaurant, and our family will definitely be back!“

“After a long and frustrating trip, the last thing I wanted to do was get back in the car and drive to get food. I order a glass of red wine which the waitress generous filled. I decided after staring the menu for a while on the hummas and pita. The hummas was really good and the pitas were nice and warm. I was pleasantly surprised by how good it was.“

“We used this food truck for a birthday party of 60+ people. Michael and his team are phenomenal! So friendly, accommodating, efficient, punctual and the food is fantastic. Lots of options and each one was delicious! Reasonably priced for such a great service. Highly recommend them and hope to use them again in the future!!

Vegetarian options: Salads, fries, vegetarian burrito bowls and veggie burgers available for those with restrictions. Delicious!

Dietary restrictions: Salads, fries, vegetarian burrito bowls and veggie burgers available for those with restrictions. Delicious!“

“Everyone there were so lovely , the Temple and grounds are truly magnificent and should be celebrated for its workmanship and dedication. The cafe was enjoyable, the food was delicious and reasonable. We also enjoyed the food market and gift shop, we brought home purchases from both. Thank you for an amazing experience.“

“Great food, terrific service.“

“What a truly wonderful experience it was coming here. This nice young lady that works there was very polite. There was a bit of traffic building up in there behind me, but she was very patient with me as I surely took quite a while to order a few things for my family members. Everything was clean, and freshly organized. She even made sure to reassure me that the utensils were all cleaned properly because I tend to get a bit skeptical due to the possibility of cross contamination. The ice cream quality was great! Much better than most other places in this area. I never asked for that young lady’s name but she wore a lot of bracelets, and had black nails just like my daughter, which I complemented! I will be back in here for sure!

Will recommend this place for all ice cream lovers!“

“⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ FIVE STARS!! Huge shout out to, Tim! I had a rough weekend and needed some good food. He provided just that with a big smile and great customer service!!“

“Had a great experience in 1st visit so went back with friends and family for more.

If you're looking to please both American and Korean pallets, this is it. The concept is a really interesting fusion of Korean and American cuisine—if anything, I’d describe it as American food with a Korean twist.

The menu is surprisingly diverse, which makes it easy for everyone in a group to find something they’ll enjoy. We tried a mix of dishes—from the beet and orange salad to Korean fried chicken, quinoa bowls, and even pastas with Korean-inspired flavors—and everything was solid.

What really stood out was the balance of flavors. Nothing was overly saucy or overpowering, yet each dish had a distinct and satisfying taste. You can clearly pick up the Korean seasoning, but it’s subtle and well integrated rather than overwhelming. Even the traditional Korean tofu soup had authentic flavor without being overly spicy or heavy.

The atmosphere adds to the experience as well. The two-floor setup—with the main dining upstairs and outdoor seating available—feels cozy but still spacious. Parking is also convenient with street options and a small lot in the back.

Overall, a fantastic spot for Korean-American fusion with a menu that truly offers something for everyone, including kids. The kids pasta in butter was really good, especially the pasta. Maybe homemade pasta...“

“A bright spot on some tough days - I was going back and forth visiting my dad at Princeton U. Hospital for a few weeks, and stopped here several times for coffee or breakfast. I drove in early from PA and appreciated that they opened at 6:30am. Rare to find such a homespun mom and pop type place these days- just really simple and cosy, and the pastries, sandwiches and coffee are excellent. They have a cute porch with a few seats, and a little bistro table under a nearby tree. It was the perfect place to have lunch on a nice day as a much-needed break from sitting in a hospital room.“
