“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!“

“I really love the Regent Cafe, but for different reasons than the food. I had a family member in a morning program in the same building for several weeks this summer, and I was able to work remotely from the Regent Cafe at their big table in the back until it was time to take them home. I always made sure to purchase something like coffee or breakfast, but they never insisted I do so. They always gave me my space. As the days and weeks passed, we grew accustomed to each other, a mix of food prep and cooking and conference calls. When it came to an end, it was bittersweet. I felt like they had taken care of me, providing me with a safe space so I could keep my job while going through a really difficult time. I can't thank them enough.“

“Best pour over ever!!☕️☕️☕️🙂“

“I'd like to take a moment to recognize the *outstanding service* of this locally owned cafe. We have been in contact with the owner, Chris, to help us send nutritious treats (the most delicious smoothies in town!) to the heroes on the front line of this unfortunate pandemic at Saint Barnabas Hospital. My father's been fighting COVID and due to appropriate hospital regulations, we have not been able to visit him - the incredible doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, technicians, and support staff have been faced with not only caring for patients but being their bedside cheerleaders. I've gotten feedback from the nurses that the smoothies are a huge hit! Not only are they tasty, but they are extremely nutritious! There's a huge variety to choose from and the mechanism for ordering/delivering was so easy (they even attached personalized notes from us!) that we've utilized their services several times to help treat the hospital heroes. Also, of note, is their special attention to sanitary mechanisms as they prepare food/smoothies during this scary time. *The cafe has donated a tremendous amount to the hospital heroes as well, and for that, they must be commended and supported during this difficult time for local businesses.“

Highly recommend and we will definitely be back to try lunch next!“
