“The perfect chocolate cake. It was moist, decadent chocolate cake perfectly layered with like a thicker chocolate pudding, and then it was topped off with chocolate crumbles .... giving it an extra oomph/ perfect textureAlso got the ginger snap - has a nice ginger taste, which is what one would look for.I'm definitely going back.“
“An absolute gem added to downtown Berkeley Heights. Everything from start to finish was top notch. Rolls and garlic herb olive oil were tasty. Meatballs and coconut shrimp were excellent starters. Branzino was fresh and the red pepper sauce complimented the fish well. Braised short rib & vincotto chicken were very well constructed dishes. Pistachio tiramisu (homemade) capped off an awesome dinner.Service was on point throughout, very professional with smiling faces. We will be back without a doubt. BYOB and easy parking.“
“Fantastic food, great service, and cozy atmosphere. Wife and I came here on a Sunday morning and sat at the counter. I had the breakfast tacos with chorizo and a side of grits. My wife had the Beckler omelette and a single lemon ricotta pancake. Everything was absolutely delicious!“
“Great bakery and coffee shop! The place is neat and well maintained, The birthday cake I ordered was so good and beautifully decorated, the cupcakes , cake pops, empanadas , quipes so yummy , good food, absolutely love it! I’ll definitely recommend it.“
“My brothers nephew and my first time here. I was beyond impressed. I was NOT disappointed. Walking in the smell was ???. The service was absolutely fantastic. All the workers were very nice and friendly. The food was omg. Look at the amount they serve. I ordered for one and they served for 2 ?. Looking for a new place to try I highly recommend cha cha cha. I will definitely be going back. All ready started telling people ?“
“I've been looking for a local, full service coffee shop that roasts their own beans, sells coffee/espresso, as well as offers breakfast and lunch.**This IS that place**I couldn't tell from their website, but the posts I saw on insta showed that they serve food, and I'm happy to report that it tastes as good as it looks!Very friendly staff and accommodating. Although it's currently the middle of December, I wanted a macchiato over ice, which wasn't on their menu, but when I asked they happily said 'of course'.Seems like I'm going to have to sign up for their points system because I can tell I'm going to be back here a whole lot more.I'm particularly interested in sampling their beans, just wish i didn't have to buy an entire bag of beans. Why don't these local roasters sell sample packs, allowing you to still purchase a pound of beans, but separated into small batches with samples of each bean type? This would allow me to quickly figure out which bean I want to try without having to buy a single large bag and take a month to go through coffee I don't really like before trying the next type . . . Or maybe i should start roasting my own beans and do this method . . .Anyways, I really like the space they have, they've really made the most of it, very cozy and inviting.Can't wait to go back“
“Everything is delicious and the owners and people working there are so nice. We frequently go and sit there as it has a great atmosphere. We also placed a large order for a party and the owner himself delivered an item we forgot at pick up. Amazing food and coffee and even more amazing service!“
“Everything about this café makes me always come back. I have been here a few times and I am never disappointed. I was there just today to have their delicious baklava pistachio cheesecake and it's always so worth the calories. Their food is also delicious!!. The owners are very kind..“
“My top pick in a 5-10 mile geographic area for my daily Mocha Latte fix. Iced or hot, regular or decaf, it delivers 10/10 everytime. I usually order mine with them online for pickup so it’s ready when I arrive. The owners are super friendly and I look forward to my (almost daily) stop.“
“Victoria’s presentation was very informative. Her cake was very tasty. I love the frosting and the different flavors that she incorporated into it. I love the way she prepared it. I learned a lot of new tips and tricks about piping and the correct way and how to do it. It was overall a great experience.10/10 would recommend.“
“Delicious little place in town. It's hard to say what was better. The food or the coffee. If you're in the area definitely come here for some coffee or breakfast and you won't be disappointed.Parking: It's near the transit stop so parking can be difficult at times.“
“The way the barista took time with the orders should be a BIG telltale sign that this place is absolutely amazing. From the freshness of the coffee, the ambiance, to the interior decor, this place is worth visiting.Dietary restrictions: Non dairy milk options“
“I would definitely consider myself a regular. Love their sandwiches and bakery items. The best part about this restaurant is their amazing and friendly staff. Everyone is just so nice and willing to help/answer any questions you have. The bakery is very relaxing so you could definitely get some work done if that's your cup of tea. The only negative I must comment on is that their sandwiches sit under a heated lamp so their bagels can get a bit soggy. P.S. order online as soon as the bakery opens because they do sell out very quickly. Especially on the weekends!“
“Went with my wife this morning for breakfast and it was outstanding. The egg, sweet plantain, avocado burrito hit the spot. Would have loved to try the special of the day ( milanesa napolitana) but I was really in the mood for breakfast. Definitely next time!!!“
“It's been a week and I'm still thinking about the Brioche Custard - Cream. It's a pillowy doughnut, filled with a vanilla bean custard and has a croissant top. I didn't intend to eat the whole thing, but I did. Sorry, not sorry! I also ordered the big coconut. It's a tender brioche bun that is long and very lightly sweet. It was excellent! I sampled the Matcha tiramisu and was wowed by it. I got a Jasmine latte and also loved it. Everything I tried was fantastic. I plan to return soon. The person that helped me was so kind and patient. The store is very organized and has a great vibe. It's an Asian bakery, that also serves tea and coffee. Everything is individually wrapped, and you bring what you want to purchase up to the counter. Their desserts are so fresh and different. I'm typically not a fan of Asian desserts, but these were best in class.“
“The food here is really good but idk if it's worth coming on a day where the line is long so come early and on a week day lol. We waited almost two hours to be seated. When the food arrived it was delicious from start to finish. The Mac and cheese is a must order and had such great flavor. The service was great and staff were super friendly.“
“This is, hands down, one of the best bakeries I have ever been to! Their pastries are so fresh and taste delicious. My favorite is the sweet cheese croissant. They also have some of the best coffee! The staff there are great, respectful, and friendly. You cannot beat their prices. This has been my go-to place every morning for the past two weeks now!“
“Ordered a gluten free, sugar free cake for my friends birthday. We were blown away by how good it was! Everyone loved it and would have never known there was no sugar!! Everyone who works there is super friendly also when we had questions about what was in the cake! 10 out of 10!!“
“We had a private dinner experience for my husband’s birthday. The food was delicious and it felt like we were having a big dinner party at home - the atmosphere was perfect and our guests loved it. Laura and her staff were amazing. I cannot recommend Farinolio enough!“
“It is a small Pakistani restaurant. the first thing that you will notice is- it's cute decor and great photo frames on the wall (btw you can buy it)...I can keep it in a 'cute cafe in a cute downtown' category. A neighborhood like this reminds me of Frenchtown (near to PA-NJ border)you have many options to choose from (great, isn't it)I ordered* 'Andey [Egg] wala Burger' with their classic Chai* Burger - very soft bun, lots of sauces and egg.What I liked most was -its chai. it could be one of my best chai and believe me, I am Indian and I have tasted some great chai in my countryanother restaurant to boost about...!Chatham town looks beautiful and I marked more restaurants with this, and I am gonna come back for sure!Parking: did not find parking on Main St, so took a right turn and found the parking near Chatham Playhouse.“
“Loving everything about this cafe. Honestly it’s amazing of different things you can get from here besides coffee. Fell in love with strawberry matcha latte iced. Great waffles and egg/cheddar sandwich. It honestly a peaceful/calm experience. Family friendly as well so definitely check this place out.Parking: It’s okay with parking just depends on the day I think and timing“
“Such a beautiful coffee shop with incredible drinks and food options! My lattee was so delicious, perfectly made! The chicken empanadas were out of this world! So fresh! Paola who was the barista was so sweet. Loved everything about my experience, highly recommend!“
“We were told to stop while passing thru on a long car trip. The staff were incredibly inviting and friendly, the food was delicious, and the coffee was hot, tasty, and kept me going. If you're ever nearby, do yourself a favor and stop in - you won't be disappointed!Before leaving we had to grab a few cookies for our final destination. One word - incredible!Kid-friendliness: My kids really enjoyed their muffins, croissants, milk, & OJ!“
“I needed a birthday cake or a kosher cake and they accommodate me the same day with a delicious round chocolate babka,and they deliver it to me all the way to roselle excellent service I highly recommend ?Dietary restrictions: My friend does not eat pork of any kind we need kosher for him. He's from Ghana“
“Twisted Tulip is a cute and cozy cafe with a very relaxing vibe. I ordered an iced latte with almond milk and the latte of the day 'Vanilla Rose Latte'. The Latte of the day was good but the rose/vanilla aspect was very not very pronounced. The other latter was also good. They offer a good variety of drinks, pastries, sandwiches, etc., The decor was unexpected (graffiti styles) with the name being twisted tulip, but it was a bright fun look. They have stools along a glass window, as will as tables/chairs and a cozy corner with a little couch, and a shelf of books (all very inviting) They also have outdoor seating but there seems to be a lot of construction happening around the building...hopefully it will be done by the time its warm enough to sit outside. The staff was friendly and the music was great; Overall a great experience. I'll definitely be back and recommend folks to stop by.Parking: Lots“
“The food is very good, the service is also very good because I thank the lady from Moños for being patient with me since I was a new customer and she very patiently attended to me and advised me on some dishes that I undoubtedly loved as well as me and everyone else. @ my family, I thank you very much for the attention of the ladies who are at the cash register, without a doubt it is a place where I would return for their service and attention“
“This place is amazing. Me and my large family had a very good experience and we all had different dishes. Awesome I would give them 7 stars and the price for the portion you getting is outstanding. Go in grab a bite you won't regret it.“
“Tasty food with lots of choices for the whole family. We did takeout for 5 items: --Wok Fried Noodles - bouncy and satisfying! --Bao Sampler Platter - Really good, especially with chili oil! This came with different fillings: Pork with Scallion, Chicken with Corn, and Beef with Onion and you can have them steamed or fried. I super recommend getting their add-on of Spicy Minced Pork Chili Oil which really elevates this dish. --Jasmine Boba Tea (customized for my request of zero ice, zero sugar) - pretty good, but the boba was kinda hard. --Crab and Pork Soup Dumplings - Pretty good. These are very likely much better eaten in the restaurant. In general, the filling was slightly too dense and the wrapper was a little too thick compared to the same dish I've had elsewhere. --Bao Chicken - A family fave. This came with 3 pieces of broccoli and was heavy on the chicken which had a light coating and yummy sauce. The portion lasted my kids several meals. With food this good, this spot can take a bao. ;)“
“YOU MUST GO HERE FOR DINNER!!!!!!! Not only is this the only place nearby serving East African food, it is so good that it is akin to food heaven! The staff are incredible! And for dessert you can get amazing homemade ice cream! So please please please do yourself a favor and try the Eritrean food! You will not be disappointed!“
“This place is delightful. My go to is the Portuguese rolls breakfast sandwich. It's the best in the area. The empanadas are pretty good too. Pastel de nata ::drool emoji:: say less. You can't leave here without a dessert. Stop here if you want good eats“
“I was in the area and decided to have lunch at Bakeristor. I ordered the tuna panini that came with a small salad. The tuna was creamy and delicious, and the seeded roll was flavorful and added to the overall taste. Service was friendly and efficient. I would definitely return if I was in the area. There is a small parking lot in the back, accessible from W. St. Georges Avenue.“
“Don’t generally post reviews but this place has amazing coffee. A little on the expensive side but not anymore expensive than Starbucks. I had the honey rose iced latte and the coffee on its own is good, like you can tell they use good coffee beans, and not overly roasted. Mixed with the milk honey rose and its deliciousss. Will be back <3“
“We recently stopped in for a quick coffee and snack while traveling. The coffee was great! We also truly appreciated the kindness and honesty of the owner.Our coffee and conversation led to us leaving behind a quite valuable item. Late that evening after retracing our steps, the owner answered his phone and assured us that he found the item and it would be kept safe until the next morning.He was a man of his word, and the next morning served up two more coffees and the return of our item.Thank you very much for being a great human!“
“Great place. Excellent coffee, of course. Excellent patries, of course. And very strong food. We have gone there for breakfasts. In addition to regular breakfasts, they make a wide range of Mexican breakfasts which are all incredible. Quaint atmosphere. Worth it. Maplewood, NJ“
“The food is just so amazing. My family and I go here for breakfast even though it’s out of our way. The service and staff is the best. Get there early or risk waiting, because everyone who go there once knows that Sweet Basil is the best.“
“They have just about everything. Except for weed. For that, you need to walk a few doors down. But everything else is here, and it's all good. We go here for dish soap, bread, Christmas gifts, coffee, and other things we don't know we need till we get there.“
“Boxwood is amazingly spacious, warmly lit, and with comfortable seating ranging in tables, high top tables and bar stools, and cozy choices at the windowfront. The drink menu is creative with seasonal specials as well a milieu of regular caffeine requests. I opted for an iced vanilla cinnamon latte. Eventhough the weather is getting chilly, it's impossible for me to transition to hot coffee just yet so no judgement, thank you! Espresso was quality and the tres leches donut was a dream. To balance, I split a turkey and cheese croissant with my partner. It was brought warm, cheesy melted, was especially comforting. Service was stealth and kind. They took the order thoughtfully and my items were ready in less than 5 minutes. All came deliciously prepared. There was decent seating while people were studying and chatting, a great space to rest and relax with good seating for those who are disabled or in chronic pain too. My visit was practically perfect, but the prices are steep with $6+ for a small latte. If you need any coffee accountrements like filters, pour over materials, fredh espresso beans, this is also a great spot.“
“Ordered from this place on Doordash to try it for the first time and it did not disappoint at all. Yeah it may be pricy though the quality and freshness of the food is exceptional especially the soup. The chicken noodle soup tasted phenomenally delicious plus the chicken aioli sandwich was satisfying especially for lunch. Definitely plan on ordering from here every now and then.“
“From the moment you walk in there is an earthy, peaceful and welcoming vibe in this place. The service is friendly and very helpful providing details on every option to narrow down your choices. With a broad menu of protein-packed teas and shakes, every offering serves such a genrous dose of protein that can serve as an entire meal replacement and should only be had once a day! Wow, now that's a selling point! And the taste is delicious... almost too good to be so healthy. The price is cheap but the taste is rich... take the whole family to experience this place without breaking through bank and leaving everyone satisfied!“
“A great place to stop for a drink or treat! I've been a few times to eat in the Cafe and ordered something different each time. The marshmallow latte is delicious and waffles are made fresh to order. The bubble tea is delightful and the boba/tapioca pearls were also really fresh. Looking forward to stopping by again!“
“Got the UBE PANNA COTTA. Was surprised that it was so good. A lot of Ube flavor. So sweet and tasty. Wife says, “Very good!” Also my son had the CHOCOLATE BUNDT CAKE, son gave it 10⭐️s! “That was SO good!” Wife says it was the best as well. Daughter had the CHOCOLATE MOUSSE and she loved it. The CHICKEN SPINACH HAND PIE was excellent, as per my wife. “Can we go back for more?”, says my daughter.“
“Ordered a Brookly Pie tonight...$21 Had it delivered....$4.50 delivery fee!!!!! Paid with debit card....$1.08 fee Gave driver $7 tip = $35 for 1 pizza!!!!!!!! 1 pizza!!!!!!!! $5.58 in ridiculous charges. I'd rather you tack it onto the price. Then again, $21 for dough, sauce and cheese is already excessive by itself. And, not much sauce at all on my pie. You lost a loyal customer tonight.“
“I had an absolutely delightful experience at this cozy restaurant! The staff is incredibly friendly, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The ambiance is so comfy, making it the perfect place to unwind. And let's talk about the food – it's simply delicious! Definitely a five-star gem!“
“I had probably the best chocolate croissant I have ever had in my life here. It was filled with chocolate buttercream instead of the usual chocolate batons and it was so rich, silky smooth and a perfect compliment to the buttery, flaky pastry. Would eat again every day of my life probably“
“Atmospheric breakfast (and lunch) cafe in the train station. Wonderful historic photos of trains cover the walls. Food is very good and portions are generous. Presumably commuters take-out in the morning, but there is a nice seating area. Definitely worth a special trip for a nice breakfast. Dedicated parking.“
“Van Gogh's Ear Cafe has been a fixture in union for quite a few decades. Yes decades ! Atmosphere is very different and unique let's say it has evolved from one year to the next. Sorta my grandma used to have one or I remember seeing it somewhere. Service is very efficient. Very on the money. Although the decor changes by the minute the food is not to be overlooked. Especially there BLT it's Outstanding to say the least. A must try.“
“Went here after dinner with my companion for a couple cups of coffee. She had a cappuccino and I just ordered a small cup of black coffee. She enjoyed hers, mine was ok. Service was friendly. Parking on a Sunday evening was ample but we had walked.“
“Food options change They offer daily lunch specials and have the best homemade ice cream sandwiches. They offer takeout of one individual meal or full dinners for the family that will look and taste like you cooked it yourself. Not a lot of room to eat in just 1-2 tables if you are lucky enough to have one. You can always take it home to enjoy the great food, quiches, salads , and sandwiches. They also do big party catering.“
“Of all the quick service food places that I've been, Lyd's Cafe is one of my favorites. I had such a pleasant experience; from the moment I was greeted to the second I received my order. I ordered the chicken salad sandwich which was delicious. Also, the waffles w/ fresh fruit was BOMB! Thanks to the lovely chef:)“
“Judy and her team are phenomenal. They catered an event for us and everyone loved the food and service. The food really is beyond delicious. There are so many options, Judy worked with us to narrow down the choices and end up with a menu that was varied but cohesive. Her team are amazing and you won’t regret having them cater your event.“
