Very strange place. The iced coffee is served in hot to go cups. They are normally out of quite a few flavors as well. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and tried going back. The guy who runs it is also not super friendly or welcoming. You almost feel like you’re inconveniencing when you go into order. I’m not sure how it has such a high rating. The least thing you can do when you run a business is say hello or smile.

The food and atmosphere is second to none. The cafe offers an amazing selection of coffee drinks from Lattes to Cappuccinos and everything in between. As a coffee lover I've found my new favorite spot! And the Chipotle Mayo Burger is one of the best burgers if not THE best burger I've ever had in my life. I will be back!

When you talk about the best burgers in JC, Box Cafe has to be in the conversation. You wouldn't think it since not many people know about this place and it's really a shame.
I finally had the chance to try the burger recently and had to stop by a second time in a week to confirm. It really is that good. From the quality of the patty, cheese, and bread, to the way it's cooked, seasoning, and sauces - it checks all the boxes in the best way. Everything works so well together and you can taste the love and care.
Seriously try it out. Even the salad it comes with is great. I'm looking forward to trying out their other stuff but it's gonna be really hard not to get the burger every time.
PS I hear they'll be trying out burger specialties for takeout on Thursday evenings. Will be looking forward to this!

Came here in the evening to see live music and ordered the French onion soup. The French onion soup is out of this world. Probably the best I have ever had and I order this every where I go (including France). The broth and the bread could not have been better. The service was great despite it being busy. Linda was so hospitable and friendly. Also was so pleasantly surprised to find out I could order an affogato here. Lastly, the chocolate cake was delicious. So glad to discover this place.. Definitely will be back.

The olive platter is excellent! Linda is an excellent host. The musicians that play at Box are very high quality.
Last week we were in search of a very last-minute caterer for a private event in Hudson County. Linda from the café responded to an online inquiry immediately and same day we had the menu set and ready to go. The food, delivery, and set up was fantastic. I truly can’t say enough good things about working with her and their chef. We are so appreciative of how they threw this together last minute for us and our clients were very happy. Looking forward to working with them again in the future for another private event! We also had some dietary restrictions and they were able to put together amazing vegan and vegetarian options!
Dietary restrictions: Great vegetarian, GF and vegan options.

We found this place on google and had to check it out. The food was amazing, the staff were extremely friendly, and the ambience tied everything together. We ordered the croque monsieur, avocado toast, and dark chocolate cafe. Everything tasted homemade. We can’t wait to go back next weekend!
