50 Best Cafes near New Providence

“We feel so lucky to have had Judy cater our wedding (Masker’s Barn, 90 guests). I had never had anything catered in my life and Judy was so patient addressing all of my questions. All the food looked and tasted delicious. Among the guests' favorite dishes: Mini potato pancakes, honey glazed salmon filets (my favorite), stuffed shells with marinara sauce, oven-roasted baby potatoes. Judy was also able to accommodate my last minute requests for gluten free servings. Her staff were efficient and proactive and the way they arranged my mom’s desserts made her so happy. We look forward to working with her again!“

“Just had the apple turnover, it was incredible.“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Estime Cafe today, it was an outstanding experience! From the moment we walked in, the customer service was phenomenal, warm, attentive, and truly welcoming. This is the first Haitian restaurant I’ve visited that delivered such impeccable service, and it made all the difference. The atmosphere was inviting, and the food was authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish was prepared with care, bringing out the rich, bold flavors of Haitian cuisine. Whether you’re a longtime fan of Haitian food or trying it for the first time, this place is a must-visit. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a fantastic meal and a top-tier dining experience. My husband and I will definitely be returning!“

“The best vegan cafe when you’re in the mood for a great scone and cup of coffee! They’re lovely people!“

“Highly recommend Lidios for all of your floral needs! Maria put some beautiful arrangements together for me for multiple events, and her work is truly spectacular! The flowers always have guests talking and always add a special touch. 💐🎉“

“I love having a Dominican bakery so close. Everything we’ve had there has been FABULOUS!!! Honestly, some of the best coconut macaroons I have ever had and that includes ones I’ve had in DR. I had a coconut tree leches cake, and a strawberry short cake cup, which were both out of this world. The cold brew is so good, and the pumpkin sauce is on point. They’re also super friendly. Next time I need to try the pastelitos (empanadas).“

“Nice little spot where there's not much else around so its super convenient. Finally stopped by for an iced cold brew and it was really good. Great friendly service, would definitely stop by again. It's a trailer in the parking lot of the Willow Grove church, you can't miss it.

Parking: Church parking lot, free.“

“Stopped here for lunch on our way to Virginia. Can't wait to come back. Food was fresh and original. Loved the fries, BLT pasta salad, and raspberry lemonade. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Pop up dinner at cafe zingara was a one of a kind experience. The newly opened breakfast/lunch spot has become a local favorite so when I heard about the pop up dinner I had to be there. The chefs prepared several appetizer courses and 3 main courses served family-style. There was an abundance of food. The lamb chops were some of the best I’ve had, and the chicken parm on the bone was a unique touch on a classic favorite. Hopefully these dinners will become a regular occurrence because it was one of the best meals I’ve had in my life.“

“I love the look and feel of the store. I love all of the products. The merchants and staff are amazing. I come almost everyday“

“I’m glad my daughter found this place, now I’m addicted to bubble drinks!! And the bubble waffle is awesome!!!!“

“This is a great little café/diner right next to the Westfield train station. We are fairly new to Westfield and went there for the first time a couple of weeks ago. We were wowed by the wonderful customer service of our waitress, Cindy. She was very attentive, provided great order suggestions and also brought over their delicious housemade hot sauce to go along with our eggs. All the food we ordered was wonderful, including the short stack of chocolate chip pancakes, the egg and cheese sandwich on a hard roll, and the Florentine omelette. The chef (maybe owner?), Ash even stopped by later on towards the end of our meal to check on how everything was. We meant to write this review right after that, but then never got around to it and when we went back today a few weeks later, we realized how much we needed to write this up! This time Kirsten and Cindy both helped us out, and Cindy remembered us by our orders from the last time even though we had only been here one time- very impressive and shows a great attention to detail and customer service. Ash came by also, and it was clear he remembered us as well. The food was fresh and tasty yet again (we got the French toast, egg and cheese sandwich, and Greek omelette this time) and the prices are great. This place is a gem and is definitely becoming one of our go-to spots!“

“Great selection of Portuguese and Brazilian breakfast/lunch!!!“

“They treat you well!! Stop by and see for yourself.“

“This place is an absolute hidden gem. The front door is literally located between 2 service bay doors at Sansone Toyota. Don't let the hard to find and unusual location sway you, the journey of discovery is just part of the fun. Once through the door, you take the stairs up to a beautifully maintained cafe oasis. We were going for breakfast and left sad that we had no room left to stay all day and enjoy the lunch buffet. They have a beautiful open kitchen concept where you can see all the fresh food being prepared. The breakfast was excellent with wonderful fresh ingredients and satisfying portion sizes. Don't miss the pupusas, a house specialty. The owner, Rosa, is as sweet as can be and runs the restaurant with various family members. We were staying at the nearby Fairfield Inn due to a flight cancellation at Newark Airport and made the walk over. Not the easiest walk due to a lack of sidewalks in the area, but there is a crosswalk to get across the busy highway. We were able to successfully use our airline food vouchers (come as virtual visa cash cards), so we were pleased with that as well. Rosa's should not be missed if you are in the area!“

“Love their soups and sandwiches. Their staff are always friendly and professional!“

“We ordered the everyday Wednesday special on Friday. It was fantastic!! Thank you!!“

“I recommend all sandwiches but my favorite one is the chicken Caesar ciabatta sandwich. A salad but sandwich style. It’s so good it’s a must get. Workers there are friendly. I come here often for the corn muffins there the best I’ve ever had.“

“New ownership and they serve wonderful authentic Mexican food. Amazing tacos.“

“Boxwood Cafe is a gem! The owner has created a high quality coffee shop and the employees are very friendly. I like to stop by for a latte and a baked good (scone, cookie, or blueberry bar) and sit outside at one of the side tables. Pre-Covid, they hosted open mic night and quiz night every month. Now Steve hosts a monthly Zoom Quiz Night and it is so much fun! A great locally owned cafe.“

“Wow! So delighted at this amazing bakery in Westfield run by the most talented couple and now they have a new one in Morristown too! My son is so picky and adores their key lime pie, Boston Crème donuts and Snickerdoodle cookies ! And these are 5 star treats ! Enjoy and join their loyalty program too to save … what a gift to New Jersey ! 💙🩵“

“Stepping into Crafts in Cranford feels like discovering a hidden gem! But the real treasure trove lies behind the counter: Kamily, the young entrepreneur leading the show!From the moment you chat with Kamily, her passion for healthy, delicious drinks is infectious. Whether you're looking for a refreshing smoothie packed with superfoods or a loaded tea bursting with flavor, she's got something to tantalize your taste buds and nourish your body.“

“Chashni is one of my local favorites to take out, I highly recommend
- Kulfi shake: a milk shake with pistachios, cardamom, and dried rose petals
- avocado toast served on sourdough
- iced chai with oat milk, unsweetened
- date salad
- gulab cake

Service is slower than mega chain coffee shops, but worth the wait. There are a couple of bistro tables outside the shop and a limited amount of indoor seating.“

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

Rick and Joe Coffee serves amazing coffee — rich flavor and perfectly brewed. The place has a cozy vibe, friendly staff, and excellent breakfast options that pair perfectly with their drinks. Definitely a go-to spot in Hackett for a fresh start to the day!“

“I very much enjoyed my experience at blossoms brunch bar. The music was a vibe and the food was amazing and very tasty. Freddy the servicer was very attentive and very kind. I much recommend you give it a try. The seating is timed by 90 minutes, so make sure that your full party arrives before you’re seated.“

“This place is officially my go to local bakery! Victoria and her mom Laurence have been nothing but kind and helpful each time I’ve went in. My friends and family raved about the triple chocolate cake i picked up for my sisters birthday and my best friend and i enjoy a quiet breakfast and cafe on the weekends! The decor is so welcoming and bright. It’s a great place to sit, and relax! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious pastries and French imports. It’s a piece of home for my mom, as well! 🇫🇷🥖🥐🥮🧁🎂💕“

“Amazing Cinnamon Rolls. Perfectly baked dough, not over done. Extra Cinnamon, not the cheap stuff and plenty of sweet glaze for the top.“

“I love Panera!! The food is good as it always is. What made our visit really memorable was the staff member Misheel (please forgive me if I spelled your name wrong!) who made absolutely sure our food was satisfactory. When we picked up our food, he made sure we knew that we could come to them with any concerns or questions. I got up at one point to get some butter for my bread and some dressing for my salad, and he was super accommodating. He also came by to check on us as we were eating. Really stellar service, I’m super impressed!“

“Great breakfast and healthy smoothies. A little pricey but still great“

“Everything was always so fresh and tasty. The Staff goes out of their way for the Customers.“
