50 Best Cafes near Piscataway

“Lifehack - although you need a membership to use the facilities inside the YMCA, anyone can come in and get their snack fix (workout optional).

Its a small cafe, but offers enough essentials. They sell pizzas, empandas, burgers, fries... as well healthy juice bar and variety drink options.

But their main feature is the acai bowls - acai, pitahaya or coconut base options. There's a handful of pre-built choices (loaded with fruits, granola, nutella or peanut butter) or create your own. Quick and efficient and beautifully prepared... our Berrytella and Dragon Kiwi bowls came out fresh and delicious.

Will definitely be back, and might even convince me to actually use the gym.“

“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.“

“Chicken sandwich and lemonade all the flavors 🔥“

“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!“

“Great spot for coffee and the owners are super friendly.“

“Amazing please to spend the evening and have amazing food, waited by the most amazing staff and owners.“

“Frequent customer, but always blown away with the freshness of their summer menu. The shrimply the best tacos, which was originally on a tostada last summer, was just as amazing, but didn’t sit as heavy as a tostada. Love the move to a light tortilla. The Mexi-Avo toast was so filling and the flavors melted together so nicely. Don’t forget the decor inside is so cozy, boho/havana vibe and perfect for a date or girl’s brunch. 10/10“

“Cool electic vibes. Busy but cozy as well. I randomly was in the area and was looking for a quick latte before a meeting. This was 4 minutes away, really glad I went. Will go back again, I tried nootropic latte. It's got a cool clever twist with emphasis on neuro/ nootropic/ well being mixins.“

“A delightful coffee shop in Scotch Plains. It has three rooms: a lovely sitting area with tables, a lounge area with a couch, and a coffee bar. The coffee is superb! It's on Westfield Ave., with convenient parking in the back (off Montague Ave.), watch for it carefully if you're driving, as it's easy to miss.“

“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).“

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

“As I run in to grab my order, I see the prized pistachio latte And think to myself: ‘Yup, it’ll definitely taste good’ Ps. Please bring the tiramisu latte back.“

“Great menu great atmosphere and excellent prices , the owners and staff super friendly“

“Brewed Awakening is the perfect spot for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. The food is consistently delicious, and some of my favorites include the BLT Sandwich (always made to perfection), the omelettes, and their Apple Caramel Butter Latte—a delightful seasonal treat. I first discovered the latte through a social media post a few weeks ago, and now Brewed Awakening has become my go-to spot every Sunday for a relaxing meal. The service is always warm and welcoming. Annie, the owner, often makes an appearance on the floor, either serving or checking in with guests to ensure they’re enjoying their visit. Her kindness and genuine hospitality make the experience even more special. I highly recommend stopping by Brewed Awakening for a delicious meal and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Great food and friendly service!!!“

“All around wonderful first experience at Safwa. Genuinely one of the best coffees I’ve ever had, and I’m not even a coffee drinker! I also ordered a panini sandwich which was delightful. Their specialty sauce is a creamy spicy mustard, which paired well with their thick-cut turkey. A great place to socialize and study, and while busy, service was still great! Will definitely be returning soon.“

“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!“

The barista was incredibly kind, he was friendly and we got to chatting about the music that was playing, overall it was definitely worth the walk.

I can’t wait to come here after getting off the bus from college and have a nice place to study and get coffee!“

“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 ! 💙🩵“

“Great cafe and caterer! Use them for all my catering needs.“

“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.“

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

“Our 4-star Marriott hotel didn’t include breakfast, so we decided to look for a good coffee and breakfast spot nearby. We stumbled across this beautiful place called Lokal Coffee & Co, and it ended up being one of the best breakfast experiences we’ve had!

The matcha and coffee were exceptionally good. The coffee was rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced, you can really tell they care about the quality of what they serve. The waffles were amazing, and the fruit was incredibly fresh.

But the absolute highlight was the egg and avocado sandwich. Honestly, it might be my favorite breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had. Everything about it was delicious and perfectly put together.

If you’re in the area and looking for a great breakfast, brunch, or coffee spot, you NEED to try Lokal Coffee & Co. Definitely worth the stop!“

“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.“

“I went to this cafe for the first time with my friends and I found it very enjoyable. The poke bowls and tea are delicious although it can be a bit pricey. They have 3 ordering stations and private seating places which are perfect for studying but a bit dark lowkey. They also have free water which is a blessing. Parking is also easy to find🙏.“

“Great spot for a meeting! Great food and the best coffee!“

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

“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 matcha bubble tea and latte that was better than any other matcha latte I've ever had before. I've had a lot of matcha so if you can trust me on this one. Talked with the owner Ying and barista Jesse for some time and they were both great ❤. The cafe itself has a very good esthetic with a cute teddy bear in the corner. Definitely a must try for any latte and bubble tea lovers 😋.“

“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 :)“

“One of my favorite bakeries from now on. Love the pastries, drinks and the crew service is very good as well.“

“Came in today nicole immediately welcoming got a juice and breakfast wrap both were exactly what I wanted Skolniks breakfast wrap some of the best service I’ve had“

“What a cute place!! The owner was so sweet and greeted me warmly when I came in. She gave me a great run down of all the things Craft since it was my first time there and helped me choose. Parking was super easy, parked right across the street with no problem. I got the waffle, blue splash and my friend got the jolly rancher. Very tasty omg I will be back here, wish I lived closer lol“

“Good food, cute place and very good staff - empanadas were delicious but highly recommend to have a mini empanadas in the menu, also some sauce that is not mayonnaise based - like could be only cilantro with some lemon. The paninis were great.
😊“

“More then food - kindness & 💜“

“Una experiencia maravillosa“

“Great food !! I definitely recommend this place 👍🏻“

“I was doing another errand around the area and needed coffee but didn’t want Dunkin.

This place looks like a rest stop restaurant. It’s connected to a pizzeria and bakery i think.

But I will say……. I had the BEST cold brew here. So flavorful and had sugar free syrups!

I got the cold brew with oatmilk and sugar free vanilla syrup and I finished the whole thing!

I typically only drink half my coffee due to acid reflux but man, the woman who made my drink. THANK YOU.

It was so delicious and definitely will be coming back if I am in the area.“

“Delicious fresh food. Nuray's is a hidden gem. Highly recommended.“

“It’s always nice and clean. And the staff is very helpful. I just love this place always buying what I don’t really need😊“

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

“Great breakfasts. World-class home fries!“
