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.“

The Coffee Club Cafe • $
5 Prospect Ave, Princeton

“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.“

“I've driven past this place plenty of times but only recently did I discover it. After seeing the reviews and all the critical acclaim, I decided to go ahead and see what the hype was about, and I was not disappointed. This is honestly a fantastic, lowkey, hidden gem of a coffee shop in the Princeton area. It was quiet, not busy at all, and the barista was super sweet and hospitable! There's plenty of good options of coffee to choose from, as well as tea, acai, and other snacks. I got the Hot Spicy Maya Mocha, and it was great. A super nice blend of coffee, chocolate, and creaminess. Every sip was blissful and delicious! Most coffee is just okay, but this coffee truly made my soul feel warm and cozy. I'm definitely coming back more times in the future! People who live in the neighborhood/community that this coffee shop is located in are really lucky to be walking distance from what is probably the best coffee I've had in Princeton! If you ever frequent Princeton Junction, or regularly commute to the train station, I highly recommend you stop by!“

“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.“

“Had a mocha, the country omelette, and home fries. The mocha and home fries were some of the best I’ve ever had. The country omelette was also excellent: the eggs were cooked perfectly. I will be coming back and bringing family and friends. A great addition to Princeton’s downtown. Excellent service and ambiance, to boot!“

“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!“
