43 Best Cafes near Pennington

“Emily's is an absolute favorite stop for my Fiancé and I. We're about an hour away from Emily's, but we enjoy eating at Emily's so much that we make the trip at least 4 times a year. It's a scenic drive and close by to several fun towns like New Hope, Stockton and Frenchtown. We also hired Emily's to cater our wedding. Emily's has been, by far, our favorite vendor to work with. The only thing sweeter than Emily and her staff are the Peanut Butter Cookies. They are FANTASTIC.“

“Excellent place to get good food fast. Staff is polite and remembered my name after my first visit.“

“10 star experience. Perfect place to relax with a latte and breakfast. Warm inviting staff with fresh homemade delights. I particularly enjoy the veggie omlette, sweet potatoes with rosemary, curried chicken salad on a croissant, and all the salads are delicious. Pastries are artfully presented and not too sweet. Also, you won't find a better biscuit in New Jersey.“

“THIS IS MY SPOT. ALL DAY EVERY DAY EXCEPT SUNDAYS :)“

“Ginger cardamom scones! Actually, all the scones are delicious. Coffee beans are roasted in a facility in Rocky Hill. Our favorite is the dark roast. Shop local!“

“The crepes taste good and are reasonably priced for a shop in Princeton.“

“1st time here, delicious latte and cool crew. Be back soon!“

“This cafe is a true gem as mentioned on other reviews. I did not know what to order and the barista, Pearl, made a great recommendation.
Really enjoyed the seasonal iced rose peach tea with avocado toast. The pastries looked incredibly tempting. Those are for my next visit! Great atmosphere and service!“

“Charming little cafe with excellent food and service 😊“

“This is one of two breakfast spots where I enjoy the shrimp and grits. It's very delicious and filling! I get bacon to add to the grits because everything is better with bacon. The latte was also hot for almost my whole meal; everywhere else it's cold after five minutes. I'm not sure how they're doing that, but I hope they keep doing it! All the employees are polite as well. I come from another state to eat here because I love the food and the service is great.“

“I have been going to Chucks for wings since 1985.
Went today after a long time and they were just as good as I remembered.
I went for the 14 piece wings. Recommend

Parking: Right next door is a parking garage.
Free for 30 minutes, I was in and out, so parking was free and a short walk.“

“Great food and fast friendly service!!“

“Excellent little breakfast place. The pastries and savory dishes were delicious. Particularly the olive oil pistachio tea cake and the avocado toast terrine. Kit helped us with our order and did an excellent job with all of our questions and indecisiveness“

“The service was awesome. The ice cream was also amazing. The place looks great and it makes us feel at home.while we were waiting they gave us popcorn no charge. Definitely try salted caramel and mint chocolate chip.“

“The chipped beef was the best I ever had and I eat it a lot.scrapple was on point as well. Everything we got was delicious.“

“Played a lot of Billie Joel and Taylor Swift on the Jukebox. Overall pretty slay.

Parking: Not much parking :((

Dietary restrictions: Being on a vegan and paleo diet at the same time is challenging, but the chefs were so accommodating!“

“Tried the campfire latte and was so impressed!!! Will be coming back. They have so many options which is great. Love supporting local businesses while at work!“

“Food , service , ambiance was wonderful .“

“My family enjoys this great bagel café. It has a wide selection of bagels and bagel sandwiches. It also has other items on the menu, but anything not bagel centric tends to be as expensive as the nearby Edgewood Café. If you want a bagel or a bagel sandwich, this is the place to go in Edgewood/Yardley!“

“Great Food. Great Staff. Highly recommended“

“Best-value and best tasting coffee offered around campus/town - an important accolade when even the campus-run outlets are draining bank accounts for very basic offerings. Important for new or unfamiliar campus staff to know that all are welcome, even though it is in the basement of the "Campus Club" building.“

“The crepes taste good and are reasonably priced for a shop in Princeton.“

“Sinceramente, la mejor tortilla de harina que he comido en trenton, personal muy amable, el restaurante es pequeño, pero el sabor es grande, usualmente los tacos de azada son muy buenos ya que la calidad de la carne es muy buena, los helados y granizadas son muy buenos, todo a un buen precio. Sugiero siempre llamar para ordenar ya que tienen muy poco personal.“

“Homey restaurant with fresh handmade pasta, you can choose the type of pasta and then the sauce, they have good desserts and a good cappuccino, the atmosphere is very nice and the service is very good, it is a good place to go with your family and partner“

“Very friendly and kind staff. I've always had good drinks and food here, and everything being made fresh there is very evident. We especially like the Vietnamese salted coffee.“

“Great food, terrific service.“

“too expensive, horrible service, arrogant and ignorant staff. unless you have 15 minutes to wait for a simple coffee and muffin while these igorant people commiserate with college students, dont bother patronizing this place. $15 for muffin, coffee and tip makes Starbucks seem inexpensive.“

“Came here with my girlfriend as we are trying breakfast sandwiches in the area and I was pleasantly surprised. The sandwiches are the best we've had in the area. Everything was freshly made and with real ingredients. The bacon in particular was obviously just cooked for the order. The roll was fresh and everything was well seasoned. Overall, I highly recommend!“

“Sat outside, upstairs rooftop. It was lovely. Service was attentive but not overbearing Both had tuna appetizer- nice portion, tuna was fresh. We also ordered the sea scallops and bolognese. Both excellent and nice portions. Too full for dessert. Hidden Gem - will go back“

“Was starting my night as Lyft driver and needed a mental and physical break from the day. Found this gem in the heart of Trenton and was pleasantly surprised at the location, amount of parking on the street right In front of the establishment and the overall ease to find the place. When you enter the place is clean and inviting. Love the black and white theme going on. The place is clean and well cared for. Tables are clean and plenty of sitting. If you want to watch the world go by in this busy Trenton street you can sit at one of few laces by the oversized store front windows. With foot traffic and car traffic going by as you’re in a nice relaxing place with nice music (not too loud or quiet) the smell of coffee or whatever the kitchen is cooking up in the back. (Not overpowering or overwhelming smell) and just enjoy your treat or coffee. I had the latte and it was delicious and perfect temp. Paired with chocolate croissant warmed up. Staff is polite and kind. I sat down they brought I me the croissant and coffee. Also noticed how they would ask the other customers to sit as they with a smile on their face bring out the food or drinks. If in the are will stop by again for lunch or something savory. Greet menu and nicely priced items. WiFi available and cool designed bathroom that clean and modern to go with the theme of the place. Love the lighting in the shop! 5 stars do recommend! Would be a really cool time if it was raining outside and I was in here doing my work or just relaxing watching the busy world outside hastily move about the sidewalks and roads! Thanks for the lofi coffee shop feel and vibes!✌????????“

“I don’t know how I missed this in the past. It was a terrific “find“ for me. There were all kinds of eclectic choices. I chose the Big Easy Benedict, and it certainly did not disappoint. The coffee was excellent ( French press) and I had a kale juice on the side, which I usually never do but did enjoy. I’ll certainly go back. The only knock is that service is slow. I had to wait to be seated when there were at least seven or eight open seats, and I had an unnecessarily long wait for my check. When I left, there was another lineup for people coming in when seats were available. That said, though, I am pretty sure those are kinks that will be ironed out. It is a “go to” place and I thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast.“

“Really nice local brunch spot. The food was delicious and they feature local artists inside for their artwork. The coffee was really good, the breakfast tacos were delicious and the sandwich was yummy! The staff was also very friendly. The cookies were alright. The matcha latte was good, not overly sweet.“

“BLTA Bacon,Lettuce, Tomate & Avocado“

“Horrible what you did to Fame! Bad business practice and I will never step foot in your establishment.“

“It has a nice atmosphere, friendly staff, clean tables, and reasonably priced and delicious food. I like toasted bagels. Another nice thing is that there are power outlets at most tables. You can charge your laptop and work as if you were in the office, which is what I do :)“

“What I find amazing about this place is that they consider themselves a restaurant…they should cal themselves an overpriced laxative depository. Before you order be sure you live nearby. The price is so high but the food runs right through you. Not to mention the staff are rude and unwelcoming.“

“when i walked in i was genuinely shocked. the place is amazing it’s like 3 different restaurants in one. dessert, spanish, and italian. the atmosphere is also amazing. out back is very clean with beautiful furniture. this isn’t even all of it. seriously guys. shout to tony man. a real cool guy

Kid-friendliness: ice cream and cookies? that’s all i gotta say.“

“What a truly wonderful experience it was coming here. This nice young lady that works there was very polite. There was a bit of traffic building up in there behind me, but she was very patient with me as I surely took quite a while to order a few things for my family members. Everything was clean, and freshly organized. She even made sure to reassure me that the utensils were all cleaned properly because I tend to get a bit skeptical due to the possibility of cross contamination. The ice cream quality was great! Much better than most other places in this area. I never asked for that young lady’s name but she wore a lot of bracelets, and had black nails just like my daughter, which I complemented! I will be back in here for sure!

Will recommend this place for all ice cream lovers!“

“It is important to note that I have specific preferences when it comes to food and may require a bit more attention to detail in order to fully satisfy my palate. Nevertheless, I recently encountered a few beef empanadas from this fine culinary establishment, and I have never taste any as delicious as these. I implore everyone to try this food.“

“Delicious - always fresh!“

“I miss my friends at panera, Stay well and ill see you when this is all over!“

“The chipotle chicken pizza is bomb“
