“This is a delicious spot!!! I got the s'mores crepe and it had whole graham crackers in the middle so you get a great crunch! Hubs devoured his strawberry and Nutella crepe. They had a connect four on the wall so we played that as we waited for our food. Crepes came out quickly.

Went back a second time. Still amazing. Highly recommend the work of art of the brownie crepe!“

“What a great, local cafe with delicious hot chocolate and other warm/cold drinks and snacks. Peaceful vibe, great decor, friendly and welcoming owners. 😀“

Recommend their bohemian donut with an iced Vietnamese 🍩☕️ The cafe is a part of the Rancocas Woods Village which is an absolute paradise for those who love used bookstores, quaint shops, delectable treats, and green witchy vibes🍄“

“I had requested cannoli’s and pink and blue cupcakes for a gender reveal and to my surprise she had made not only pink and blue frosting for the cupcakes, but pink and blue cream filling in them as well. They were delicious. I can not even begin to explain how amazing the cannoli’s are!!!“

“I like Panera, the food is usually really good. Yesterday 04/04/23, my sister & I ordered the Green Goddess Caprese Melt toasted baguette. My sister had it before & raved about it. Well what we had yesterday was nothing yo rave about, it was so disappointing. The picture on the left is what it should look like. That is what my sister had before. Not this time: We could not see the mozzarella, the lettuce was skimpy at best & the tomatoes were just about non existent. The bread was tasty & as always the soup was delicious!!“

“We had the best first visit this past Sunday. The sweetest barista helped us, and i’m kicking myself for not being able to recall her name. She was kind, patient, friendly and super hospitable. She didn’t mind helping me figure out the menu, and/or what to order. Even making suggestions based on our personal preferences for drinks. My kiddo loved the cozy seating area, too! I wish I could share photos, everything was delicious. Will return!“

“I stop by this Panera almost every morning, and I have to give a huge shoutout to Sam. One day I walked in and he was already standing there with my coffee and breakfast ready to go—before I even said a word. That level of attention and care really stood out.

Every time I see him, he’s polite, quick, and clearly takes pride in what he does. He knows his regulars and makes the whole experience smooth and welcoming. It’s rare to see that kind of consistency and professionalism these days.

Sam is a big reason I keep coming back. Panera is lucky to have him.“
