Amazing Turkish and European inspired food and cafe in the heart of Montclair! The owner/operator Pinar is the sweetest and friendliest, and her delicious food always leaves you satisfied and wanting more! We Love the Doner sandwhich, chicken chipotle sandwhich, coffee and tea selection is amazing - go for the pistachio latte!! And if you’re lucky you meet Bade!!
Where do I even start?! The atmosphere she has created in this cafe is so special :’) you really feel Pinar’s whole heart & soul in this space! The chipotle chicken sandwich is out of this world & the Biscoff latte is *chefs kiss* - a must visit, for sure, everything is a delight.
Absolutely love this charming coffee shop! The sandwiches and crepes are incredibly delicious, and the owner's warm hospitality adds an extra touch of joy to every visit. Highly recommend!!

Came here to catch up with a friend. It was quiet and a cute space. The food was delicious! The Turkish bread chicken chipotle sandwich is one of the tastiest sandwiches I’ve had! I also took a bite of my friend’s savory crepe and that was delicious too.I ordered a pistachio latte and found they use real pistachio. Super yummy! Definitely recommend!

La Fontaine is where it's at for sandwiches that'll blow your mind. The flavors are killer, and the bread crunches just right. Plus, their sweets are to die for. The best part? The owner is super cool to chat with. It's like hanging out at a friend's place but with awesome food. You've gotta check it out!

I got the falafel sandwich which is on Turkish bread instead of in a pita and let me tell you... it blew me AWAY. That was one of the best meals I've had in Montclair in SO long. The tzatziki and hummus were made in house and you could 100% taste it. The bread tasted homemade as well and came out warm. 100% recommend and will be going back!!! Can't wait to try more
It’s very small sweet and cozy place. I had a sucuk tost and I fall in love with it. Service is fast and very friendly welcoming.Parking: I didn’t have no issues to find parking. There is a lot of parking places round it.

The food was so tasty, healthy, and homemade We had the chicken sandwich, spinach savory crepe and croissant.Good energy and great coffees.Thank you Pinar
La Fontaine Cafe in the heart of Montclair, NJ, is a true delight for coffee lovers. The gyro sandwich is bursting with flavor, and their lattes, especially the white chocolate lavender, are exquisite. Pinar, the owner, adds a special touch to the experience with her constant positivity and warm smiles. It's now my go-to spot after my morning walk. Highly recommended for coffee enthusiasts and foodies alike! Don't miss out on this hidden gem!

Really nice cute place! Walked in, wasn't too crowded at all, easy to come in and grab a quick bite. Saw others placing orders for pickup if you'd like to do so as well. Their Turkish bread egg & cheese was delicious, that bread was great. We also had the Spinach and White cheese crepe, which was really good as esp with the Turkish cheese. Friendly staff and very clean cozy environment! Overall would definitely recommend and can't wait to come back! Parking isn't too bad though I imagine that depends on your timing as it's all street parking.Vegetarian options: Lots of vegetarian options available, we eat egg so I include that but it looks like they also have several options with tofu/vegan specifically. I felt like I had lots of options overall!

After moving to Montclair, there has not been a single week that I didn't visit La Fontaine and tasted one of the best sandwiches on this side of the pond. Every single bite of single sandwich I have tried is scrumptious and filled with just the right amount of meat, sauce and veggies to make it perfect. And at the end, its not just your tummy that is filled but your soul as well. Today I am having the Doner, a classic.Pinar is an excellent host, and she can cater to your (feasible) specifications as needed. BTW, look for the celebrity Bade, if she's there. Some say 'lovely experience, will eat here again". Let me tell you, I DO come here, every week. Come, eat, and be merry.PS: the experience phrase is an Easter egg. Come here and find out. ????
Great coffee and nice service
