“Wow! What a cozy place! I stumbled upon this restaurant right of the highway and was so pleased with my experience. Fireplace creates a nice ambiance, the music was at appropriate moderate volume, and I was offered assistance by Kristen and Kevin right away. I got new strawberry poppyseed salad and my favorite chicken avocado chipotle sandwich. Everything was delicious and fresh ?. It was not crowded (maybe because it was between lunch and dinner), overall very relaxing and pleasant vibe. I will definitely be back.“

“Ordered the Family Feast and the food was so comfy. Felt like home cooked and warm and cosy.It included 4 half sandwiches, 1 quart of soup, whole salad, and a baguette.Definitely recommend eating this as it seems less food, but it’s actually filling. Thank you!“

“My spouse and I discovered this fantastic brunch spot recently, and it's becoming our go-to place! Meeting Daniel, the manager, during our first visit assured us we'd enjoy our time there, and we were right. We've visited both on weekdays and weekends, and the atmosphere is always fresh. The decor adds to the welcoming vibe, and the service, especially from our server Mericis, is outstanding, which is a big plus for us as parents with a toddler. The food is consistently delicious, with standout items like their pancakes and chicken empanadas, which our little one adored. We'll definitely be returning!Dietary restrictions: Vegan and gluten free optionsParking: Parking nearbyKid-friendliness: Stroller friendly“

“This was our 2nd time coming to Red's Leaf Cafe and each time has been outstanding! The food is great and the owner is super friendly and accommodating. We had breakfast the first time, vegan scramble and pancakes and today we went for the Tofu Panini and the Kuku sandwiches. We also had the homemade soup and crispy potatoes. Everything was fantastic and fresh! We will continue to return over and over. So glad we live close by!“

“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.“

“Like the establishment that was there before, this place focuses on hearty breakfast options at reasonable prices. The pierogi omelet and the French toast are done right. The wraps are ok, and coffee options are limited. Service is adequate, and the back dining room provides more room to enjoy than the main dining room.“

“We love the atmosphere, the delicious homemade soups, main dishes, and desserts at the lovely Friends Friend's Cafe :) the jazz evenings outdoors, the chess-playing and studying students & Mo, Josephine, and Hannah with the heart of gold for all furry friends who are welcome inside the cafe, and, of course, on the patio <3 <3 <3 Below is our Rover enjoying his doggie meal and a comfy bed at the cafe :)“

“Great little spot. The combination of the hot tea, lofi beats, and the rain outside led to quite the atmosphere and vibe. I tasted the chai as well, and it had a very authentic and hearty flavor, it was quality. The roll up omelette was super tasty, great flavor combo. Cookie to finish it up was a great lightly sweet snack to finish it off. Definitely will be coming back here.“

“This place gives Tropical vibes, nice decor and music! I love the outdoor seating with palm trees. Awesome staff very friendly and greeted me right away! The Body Repair was delicious! A long with the "H Toazt" hummus, cabbage,carrots,olives and Asiago cheese! I highly recommend this place! I give this place 5 stars!!“

“Tiny location, packs a pearl.... comedy. ?I love their Thai Tea Boba and their waffles are amazing ?? whether you like croffles or their house made (?) batter. All smoothies I've had have been delicious as well as their Dolgona(hope I'm spelling that right) coffee boba! SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS??tons of parking btw!“

“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.“

“LOVE this place!! Everything was amazing, the place is very very clean and I love the peaceful ambience. The food presentation was beautiful and everything tasted great! Service was also top notch, all the staff was super kind and accommodating. We can’t have bacon and they made sure there was no cross contamination and even air fried us some fries to try. Overall great experience 10/10“

“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!“

“Guys this is a great restaurant. The food is delicately prepared. The flavors and presentation are top notch. That being said the beautiful family the own this restaurant are the warmest and appreciative people. You’ll keep coming back and bring friends and probably tell everyone as well. It’s a must!“

“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!“

“Had such a great breakfast here today. The red velvet waffles were delicious as was the latte I ordered. My daughter had the huevos rancheros which she said was really good. My niece had the eggs Benedict which she said was cooked perfectly. Such a nice cafe with friendly staff. Will definitely be back!Kid-friendliness: They had high chairs available.“

“For 15.90 on uber eats I got the 2 protein bowl with salmon, white rice, lettuce, edamame, avocado, cucumber, cream cheese, seaweed salad, tamago, tempura flake, tobiko, and green onion. Sauce on the side: spicy mayo and wasabi sauce Every part of the bowl tasted amazing, highly recommend trying the tamago. Seaweed salad is always a hit or miss for me but theirs is just right. They forgot to add the cream cheese in mine but I did try a piece from my friend's and it would've been a nice add. Despite both of us asking for spicy mayo they only gave one small container of it so I think they forgot that too. I wish the container was a little bigger to mix everything in. I also feel the portions for the veggies were a little sad (they allow you to add in up to 17 different sides so I cant imagine them fitting all those in this container). I barely had any lettuce. also apparently they use the same container for all the protein options (1,2 or 3) so I probably shouldve just gotten the 1 protein had I known. I thought I'd be getting more salmon if I ordered the 2 option. Overall great but I've had better poke bowls for this price.“

“I cannot get enough of this place! Not only do they have amazing protein donuts, amazing protein shakes, amazing protein coffee and teas but the owners are AMAZING! 10/10 would highly recommend. Good vibes is the perfect name because that’s exactly what you get as soon as you step inside ❤️Dietary restrictions: This is diet friendly. You can order based on your goals.Kid-friendliness: Extremely kid friendly.Wheelchair accessibility: Super easy as they have a ramp to get inside.“

“Not usually in this area but I’ll be coming here when I am. the cafe is very open, sunny, the perfect atmosphere with many charging stations at every seat perfect for students. The food was absolutely delicious and the barista was so sweet and even gave us complimentary chocolate. Will definitely be coming back.“

“I bought a cake for my co-workers birthday and was blown away by the design and the cake. Everyone went nuts over the cake and there wasn't a slice left. The baker is such a nice man who has passion for the food. I will only buy my cakes from her moving forward!“

“We stopped here unexpectedly when seeing it after eating at the pizzeria next door. There is a tent outside the front door of the restaurant where you could sit outside at a bench if you like. We had parked at the metered parking lot across the street, so we needed to put another quarter in to stay and have dessert here. It's a Portugese / Brazilian restaurant & bakery. We were shocked to see that it opens at 4:40 in the morning! There were several breakfast dishes on the menu. They also had sandwiches, empanadas, and most importantly desserts ! I was excited to see they had chocolate flan ! Omg this was sooooo good. It had chocolate sprinkles on top AND they drizzled chocolate sauce over it. It was so creamy and decadent. I highly recommend this for chocolate lovers. My husband and his brother split a piece of cake. To me, it slightly tasted like sweet cornbread with chocolate icing. To go for the next morning, I took home one of their dulce de leche donuts. Omg this is so good. The donut is not as sweet as an American donut, it's more sweet bread-like. It was absolutely filled with dulce de leche caramel and topped with powdered sugar. The guy that waited on us was very friendly and I think he was amused at my excitement finding all these goodies there. The inside of the restaurant is very casual with several small tables. This place was fairly popular as folks kept walking in and ordering. This is definitely worth the stop here for their baked goods.“

“The Coffee House has become one of my favorite stops for a simple yet delicious breakfast along with coffee. The service is always great. It's never packed and the atmosphere is a relaxed, easy going vibe. With the free Wifi, you can sit here and do work for as long as you wish. I love the vast amounts of rock and roll photos of icons throughout the 50s to 90s. There's ample seating both inside and outside.“

“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.“

“Came here for breakfast, got a sausage egg and cheese on a roll. Food was pretty good but not anything to rave about. They’ve got standard breakfast items, lunch options, and (interestingly) middle eastern/Mediterranean options. Prices are pretty solid for the area, got the roll and a coffee for $5.80. Good little cafe to stop in if you’re in the area looking for a budget bite.“

“Excellent establishment and very friendly staff. Only issue is that on Sundays there's only one staff person working and she will usually close the shop and remain inside but lock the doors at least two hours before supposed closing time at 3:00 p.m.Parking: Located attached to the building.“

“It is a little quaint place with all the food/drink options...so much to choose from and when I picked one item, it was created in such a way that everything layered so well...it was so scrumptious! The Hummus Toast with red onions, black beans and cheddar cheese brought out an explosion of all the flavors...it was very aromatic and pleasing to my stomach...I will go again! Sarah the owner is so kind and friendly...it's as if she is an old friend and an old soul...we never met until that evening...“

“We arrived at 1:30pm for brunch. The menu has a variety of options for everyone's taste. The prices are reasonable and the food was fresh and tasty. I highly recommend this place especially as the weather gets warmer. The outdoor space is just as lovely as indoors. The ambiance is friendly, comfortable, and casual but you can make it fancy if you want! Naveed and Maniar the manager were welcoming and took pride in telling us about the recent updates.“

“I took my mother to eat there on a Saturday evening, and she was happy with how they made one of her favorite dish(Mondongo). I myself was surprised how good the fresh fried Talapia tasted. The price was reasonable compared to other restaurants, and it's in the heart of New Brunswick downtown. The only downfall is in this area. I recommend this restaurant to anyone who is on a tight budget as well. Big thumps up ?“
