“The best coffee ever and the desserts 5 stars“

“We pulled off the highway for a coffee and stumbled upon this gem. The pastry menu is filled with unique items and great flavor combinations. I had the ube pan de sal and the Kashmir cardamom latte with oat milk. I absolutely love both! The location seemed surprising at first, it’s located in a larger office complex, but inside it feels comfortable with warm lighting and plenty of seating. They also sell records and prepared wraps and desserts. Check it out if you’re in the area! I will be sure to stop by next time I’m passing through.“

“My new favorite coffee shop! Excellent service and product! Highly recommend to all coffee lovers.“

“Amazing chicken, pastas, wraps, deserts. Bingsoo with mango is fantastic, something you must have!!!“

“So if you’re looking for not just great coffee, but over the top helpful and knowledgeable staff. Then you’ve found the right place! The Barista’s Touch is a fantastic choice with fresh ideas and incredible tasting coffee beverages. The prices are competitive with other independent coffee shops in the area, but these guys are consistent in quality and ingenuity. They make some wild creations with and without coffee. They carry some fantastic local bakery specialties that Don just look delicious, but absolutely melt in your mouth. These folks are legit and I highly not just recommend but encourage you to stop by and pick up a cup of Java either hot or cold. I promise you won’t be disappointed and you’ll come back.“

“Such amazing coffee and the food looked really good. Will def return“

“Such a gorgeous atmosphere! It really feels like a garden inside, decorated from ceiling to floor with just the right touch.

The pistachio latte and mango matcha were amazing. I love pistachio, but I’m usually not able to taste it in beverages but this time, I could, and it was the perfect balance. The matcha was just as good. I got it with the recommended whole milk, and it was delicious.

On the way to their beautiful restroom, I caught a glimpse of them freshly chopping the mango, and you can truly taste the freshness. It wasn’t too sweet or too bitter, and it wasn’t watery at all.

Thank you, Jorge, and thank you to your partner for cutting up my mango into the perfect dice so I had no trouble enjoying it in my matcha.🤍“

“I stopped at Cafe Chocolat during a road trip, and I’m so glad I did. Everything was absolutely delicious! The cookies were incredible—warm, soft but crispy and full of flavor. The chocolates were rich and clearly high quality, and the sandwiches were super fresh and really delicious . It was the perfect unexpected stop, and I’d definitely go out of my way to visit again. Highly recommend! The staff were so friendly and welcoming especially the gentleman who greets you when you walk in.“

“Great cappuccino and cheesecake. Off the beaten path.“

“Amazing coffee and friendly, attentive staff!“

“I stopped by for sweets and coffee, and everything was amazing. The desserts were so fresh and delicious, and the coffee was perfect.

What really stood out though was the staff, they were so warm, welcoming, and friendly from the moment I walked in. They made the whole experience even better.

The vibe inside is cozy and inviting, making it a perfect spot to sit, relax, and enjoy something sweet. I’ll definitely be coming back again!“

“I've been coming here for about 5 years now. It's in my top 5 favorite places in the world. Great for business meetings, snacks, spot to work, best coffee around, best pastries around, beautiful/relaxing atmosphere, excellent service, and I could go on and on. Just being inside settles me and reduces my stress level. Anyone I bring states that it's one of their new favorite places. Try the spinach/cheese croissant, but leave one for me. :) 😀...Oh, and for my vegan and gluten free friends, there are loads of options for you here.“

“They had me at lavender latte. Then add the lovely people who work there, the relaxing ambience, and the delicious goodies. 🥰“

“One of the best einspanners in Bergen County! Theres always a few people doing work or having conversations. The staff is friendly. If you’re looking for minimalistic and aesthetic vibe this is the place.

For someone with a sweet tooth, I enjoy the Lotus Biscoff Latte and Matcha einspanner ☺“

“Tried this place for the first time the other day and the coffee was smooth delicious. Juan, the barista was super friendly and knowledgeable. The two disappointing parts were no sugar free flavoring and the ham and cheese croissant. As someone with Type 1 Diabetes sugar free flavoring options are my only option so it’s saddening when there aren’t any. The croissant was tasteless and the ham wasn’t a normal color. As a whole, it was a positive experience and I will return for the coffee just not a pastry.“

“My first time trying them was amazing, my aunt, cousins along with myself did a coffee tasting there and everything was great!! I had the FFF (Triple F) with a HEC on brioche 🔥! Service was exceptional as well, definitely a comeback whenever I’m in NJ again“

“Delectable baked goods!! Inviting atmosphere and the best of service. Paying $15.44 a cheese and spinach pastry and a medium coffee was a surprise.“

“Had a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The service was absolutely excellent. The decoration and ambiance were beautiful, creating such a warm and stylish atmosphere. I also really appreciated how accommodating they were with customizing vegan options. If you’re looking for vegan options, I definitely recommend calling ahead and asking so they can prepare something for you in advance. It’s not always easy to find places willing to do that, and they made it effortless and delicious. And for all chocolate lovers, dark hot chocolate is an absolute must have! Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food, amazing service, and a lovely dining experience!“

“Today I walked in by curiosity and it was the best decision yet.. I ordered the most delicious bagel with Swiss cheese, turkey , tomato and an iced matcha latte that was made freshly in front of me with a coffee with regular milk .. best breakfast by far ! Will be a regular her for sure!“
