50 Best Coffee Shops near Glen Ridge

“Got much love for Starbucks 👍🏾“

“I live in the area and attend college out of town so getting to the library on my off days is tough. I've been looking for a place with a chill ambiance, wifi, good tea, and coffee. Well, look no more for me. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Great rustic look, comfy seating with back support, loads of outlets for laptops, and the second-floor space are super cute and cozy too. Oh and there's a small little outside area that's pretty cool as well. Shaquille (hope I spelled it right) was AMAZING! So down-to-earth, friendly, polite, and easy to talk to. She made me the Tumeric latte for me and I all but licked the cup clean. I had the hummus & cucumber on sourdough toast and it was divine. Also, a great option for vegans. I totally recommend this place if you have similar needs or just want to hang out with some friends. I will surely be going back.“

“I simply LOVE this place. It not only has the best vegan sandwiches and desserts, the hospitality is amazing. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. The only thing bad is that they are 45 minutes from me. I wish there was one closer to where I live. I would be going more often. I'm hoping one day they will become a franchise. I would definitely want to open a How Delish! ❤️“

“Decent fast casual vietnamese spot. Is it super authentic? Not really. But its good for what it is and being the only vietnamese spot in the area. I've gotten take out a couple times and the banh mi's bread were quite soft and a bit soggy so I had to throw it back in the air fryer. And the pho were very small portions with 4 pieces of thin meat. Other than that, they're quick and friendly with their service.“

“Great overall experience and the Energy in the water, the people and the atmosphere is OFF the charts!!!🎉🎉🎉“

“Me and my daughter came in for free ice cream promotion, expecting a tiny sample but was given a decent size ice cream cup. It was delicious cotton candy dots. George was extremely friendly. The atmosphere is very relaxing. We will definitely be back.“

“We pulled off the highway for a coffee and stumbled upon this gem. The pastry menu is filled with unique items and great flavor combinations. I had the ube pan de sal and the Kashmir cardamom latte with oat milk. I absolutely love both! The location seemed surprising at first, it’s located in a larger office complex, but inside it feels comfortable with warm lighting and plenty of seating. They also sell records and prepared wraps and desserts. Check it out if you’re in the area! I will be sure to stop by next time I’m passing through.“

“The best coffee ever and the desserts 5 stars“

“Great brunch place with kids. Great service.“

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

“Vanilla Cinnamon Latte from Muse on Valley Brook Ave in Lyndhurst. This coffee shop is a hidden gem. Quaint little place to read a book, do some work in their comfy area with great music and good vibes. — drinking coffee at Muse Coffee Company. — at Muse Coffee Company.“

“Looking for the best coffee spot in Bayonne? Look no further than Lavaccino! More than just a coffee shop, Lavaccino serves up perfectly brewed espresso, delicious sandwiches, refreshing juices, and creamy gelato 🍨 handmade to perfection. And don’t miss out on their exclusive, one-and-a-half-pound bar of Dubi chocolate—crafted in-house, it’s the best you’ll find in the tri-state area! Lavaccino’s cozy atmosphere and top-notch menu will keep you coming back for more. It’s a taste of Italy with a Dubai twist, right in your neighborhood😉“

“Excellent ambiance, amazing drinks, and the best customer service !“

“Amazing Amazing place! Totally recommend this place!“

“Great breakfast sandwich! Many to choose from. Nice employees/owners. Quick service. Able to sit down and eat but they don't have typical table service. Small space but multiple tables. More of a quick breakfast rather than a full service sit down meal but if you're on the run, the sandwiches are delicious and this is the place to go. I'm going to be back in town next month and already know what I will have.“

“Best Gluten Free pizza you will find. Reminds Me of the days before I was diagnosed with Celiac, I will be back for more“

“This is one of my favorites for a iced decaf latte that doesn't taste watered down or less of a normal iced latte. The croissants, especially the raspberry croissant is fresh with a soft crisp. The space is nice and outdoor tables a huge plus.“

“Cozy cool spot to hang out and really dig in to experimental coffee culture. You might expect this spot to be pretentious but, not at all. Warm, friendly, and seriously coffee focused with just enough munchies to justify more than one cup. A great find for coffee fiends and foodies alike.

The barister (coffee bar tender) took me on a beautiful adventure in a flight sampling of their cold brews. I've tasted coffee all over the US and a bit internationally and I've never tasted anything like this! (Apparently because I've never been to Japan) The Kyoto Japanese cold brew is a trip for your tastebuds. First a punch in the face then softly floral, herby, and a little funky with a sweet finish.

I had come for the masala chai which had been highly recommended and, let me tell you, I was not disappointed! DELICIOUS!

I was searching for breakfast when I walked in... and they do have muffins and pastries, but I opted for the City Hall roastbeef sandwich. Oh my was she a beauty! And yummy!

Highly recommend this neighborhood gem.“

“I feel so lucky to have this place just a short walk from my house. I come here almost every day for my coffee and they truly never disappoint! It has easily become one of my favorite little neighborhood spots. I was so happy when they started serving sandwiches too. I tried the caprese sandwich and it was absolutely delicious! Great coffee, great food, and always such a nice place to stop by.“

“Had a terrible experience today. They gave me the wrong sandwich. Tried to call them to send me a new one but all you get is a voicemail. Emailed them and even messaged them on Instagram and they never responded. So I was stuck at work all day without any food or any reimbursement“

“Amazing coffee shop!“

“This is my favorite cafe to work and relax at. The decor is cozy and beautiful, and the staff are extremely kind and friendly. 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.“

“Great coffee, We stopped at Roast’d coffee shop before heading to NYC, great experience; the pour over coffee was fantastic. Johan was quite friendly explaining different coffee beans as he roasted them and brews the coffee. I tried the espresso as well brewed from 3 different beans, very tasty. Now this is our favorite place to have coffee when traveling to NYC. We talked with local customers, so good vibes and recommendations. Awesome place if you love good coffee.“

“Excellent coffee (and they have almond milk, yay!) and their chocolate rugalah is to die for! 😋“

“Best sushi / sashimi / poke / boba & everything else on the menu on this side of the Mississippi, actually probably both sides of the Mississippi honestly.
I’ve eaten at many similar style places all over the tri-state area, nothing beats Poke Express

Gina & Tony are the best“

“My first time trying them was amazing, my aunt, cousins along with myself did a coffee tasting there and everything was great!! I had the FFF (Triple F) with a HEC on brioche 🔥! Service was exceptional as well, definitely a comeback whenever I’m in NJ again“

To come and try it out!“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my 1st visit Cafe By Us! I'll definitely be a frequent customer from now on. I highly recommend this local gem, located at the southwest corner of Hamilton and Clinton Streets in East Orange, NJ. Great customer service, welcoming and comfortable decor, Black-owned, with high-quality, fresh ingredients. #shoplocal #EastOrange“

“After visiting on several occasions I would say they are consistently high quality when it comes to the chorizo omelette, frothing milk to bring out the nutty toasty flavor in the latte, espresso that is bright and vibrant, and a touch of hospitality! The environment enables long sessions on the computer without feeling rushed or a quick grab and go coffee. Grateful for their curtained experience on ferry street!“

“The atmosphere is chill and I really like the Airplane vibe. The Airline seats really give it a nice touch. Coffee was great! Also love that old style Airline ticker on the wall. Will be back.“

“Pyszne zdrowe deserki na każdą okazję 🌹🌹“

“I reserved the private room for the afternoon and it was absolutely perfect! The noise level was just right, the temperature was perfect, and the atmosphere was cozy and delightful. Kale provided great service to me as well. I’ll be back soon!“

“this place is much bigger than you would think!! plenty of space to chill, do work, or talk with a friend. lattes are about $7, but it’s about what you’d expect these days from a quality espresso. the salted honey latte was delicious, not too sweet but very rich :)“

“Came in this morning for a coffee before work and had a great experience. The coffee was fresh and tasted great, and the staff was very welcoming. Nasif was friendly and provided excellent service. Definitely a great way to start the morning!“
