50 Best Coffee Shops near Roseland

“I come here when I can and my last experience was very positive. The gentleman Yash was very welcoming and made me feel like I was important. Thanks.

Parking: I came by at night and parking was straight across the location with plenty of spaces.“

“Nice Quality…Everything Nice (Breakfast Sandwiches etc…“

“I saw this place while driving . I wanted to try authentic Yemeni coffee. I tried Sana’ani coffee which is medium roast coffee with cardamom. I enjoyed this exotic taste. Store is clean and comfortable. Staff is knowledgeable about coffee. They offer authentic Yemeni desserts and America and desserts. They also nice selection of exotic teas.“

“Tried the Ube latte and bibingka cookie today and both were great. Friendly staff too. Thanks for taking the time to explain what everything was for this newbie ;) Can’t wait to come back and try more!“

“Stunning cafe. Hidden gem for sure. In the middle of the craziest morning, I couldn’t have had a better slowdown than Orange House Cafe. The barista was really patient, kind. I was really taken aback when I saw the elegantly made cappuccino presented to me and the cookie smells delightful. Can’t wait to come back everyday.“

“When I first discovered this cafe I instantly fell in love with the atmosphere of the cafe. Everything on the menu is so delicious! And the staff is super friendly.“

“I completely enjoyed the food drinks nd the vibe“

“I simply LOVE this place. It not only has the best vegan sandwiches and desserts, the hospitality is amazing. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. The only thing bad is that they are 45 minutes from me. I wish there was one closer to where I live. I would be going more often. I'm hoping one day they will become a franchise. I would definitely want to open a How Delish! ❤️“

“Gaby was super helpful and attentive. I wasn’t sure which percent of dark chocolate I would like so she was able to explain the difference between 60,75 and 85% of dark chocolate. She also mentioned the loyalty program that no one had previously mentioned so I was able to join! Looking forward to coming back !“

“Great place! A coffee hangout for the post modern beat generation !“

“I enjoy this coffee shop. The environment is great. Their drinks are phenomenally better than Starbucks. It's not as noisy as other coffee shops in the area. The sunlight is great in the library room.

The only downside is that one of the male baristas is not very friendly and he looks annoyed when you order a drink. He has consistently tried to close the shop 15-30 minutes early. He shuts down and cleans the machines before the end of shift so if you arrive like 15-20 minutes before closing time you might not be able to buy the drink you drove 20 minutes to get. I completely understand wanting to be efficient and needing to leave but it's inconvenient when you've driven 20 minutes across town for a to go drink based on the hours posted. He has also turned down other people so I'm not the only one with this experience.

I've been several times and female baristas are extremely friendly. Otherwise it was a 5 star experience. I just always hope I don't get the grumpy barista. It seems like I usually run into him though.

Parking: Sometimes the parking lot is full and it's hard to find a space due to the other businesses in complex.“

“Great coffee (best I've ever had), cozy atmosphere, great baristas.“

“I had a great experience at Mokafe! The service was professional, attentive, and friendly. The space was clean, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a high-quality café experience.“

“Amazing Amazing place! Totally recommend this place!“

“For a few years, this has been my go to spot when I'm in the Ironbound. Cool vibe and ambiance. Hit or miss on portion sizes. A very notable change over the years. The bacon side is way too small (two skinny slices). The avocado toast has significantly decreased in size but at the same price point, and it's often more cream cheese than avocado most times. Yet, and somewhat reminds me of being back in Brooklyn. Good coffee.“

“Sandwich is toasted, crispy outside and soft inside. Sausage and veggie are fresh. Less mayonnaise would make it perfect but it’s personal preference. It missed one star because it took a while to get the food ready. Worthy it but too long for breakfast and can only afford it for weekend.“

“Good vibes overall - wish the front was open for more seating but a nice place particularly the couch area. Will be back.

Dietary restrictions: I have a peanut allergy and didn't die after ordering a coffee drink and an iced tea. They do use Almond milk though - not sure about cross contamination. I didn't eat any of the goodies. Brought a cookie from Little Daisy Bakeshop (peanut free place).“

“Our server Jose was great. Food was delicious, fresh and substantial portions. Highly recommend. Since so popular be prepared to wait on the weekends but well worth it!

Parking: We were lucky enough to get a spot in front of the restaurant as someone was pulling out. There are parking spots throughout that section.“

“Very friendly staff and beautiful decor“

“Very relaxing and calm atmosphere. A great place to go to get away from it all.“

“We really liked the service, the cafe is clean and beautiful, we wanted to come here for a long time but every time we came there was no free table, we came at half past 9 and finally had breakfast in this place. I really liked the Jackie Smalls omelette and the falafel sandwich, as well as the Malibu fresh“

“Best Gluten Free pizza you will find. Reminds Me of the days before I was diagnosed with Celiac, I will be back for more“

“Great company! We love the passion and drive they have to help their local community ♥“

“Delicious coffee, and the staff is lovely!“

“Very atmospheric and friendly cafe!

This place seems super new, and I've started stopping by after my classes at NJIT since it's nearby and opens early enough. The baristas/workers have great customer service and are very kind and welcoming! The space is quite small as there's only 4-5 tables, but considering the location, it's good for grab-n-go customers.
The food I've had so far are the blueberry danish, almond croissants, and the classic sandwich. Everything tastes fresh and it's great that the pastries are toasted/hot when they serve it. The drink selection is amazing, and the drinks I've had so far are the best in the area! The drinks seem pretty consistent-tasting too!
This place is my new favorite breakfast spot near campus and I'll be showing all of my friends this place ?“

“If you're local and know coffee, you know Local coffee shop– a sweet Watchung gem where everybody knows your name *cue Cheers intro song*.

My partner and I first started visiting Local in 2021, and it's been our go-to since. Despite having four coffee shops closer to home, none of them match the quality of Local. That's why it's become part of our daily routine. We can always count on them to get it right. Plus, we've become friendly with the owners and baristas. Everyone there is professional and genuinely kind and caring.

Known for their warm and personal service, Local offers the best coffee and espresso in the Montclair area. Their menu is thoughtfully curated, featuring delicious seasonal drinks without overwhelming choices. My personal favorite? A perfectly crafted cappuccino, the perfect start to my mornings.

Though it's a small shop, there's plenty of seating both inside and outdoors. It's always a good sign when there are regulars hanging out, chatting or working. Somehow there is always plenty of room for all to enjoy the welcoming atmosphere. It's the perfect spot to catch up with old friends or make new ones :)

Vegetarian options: ALT MILKS

Dietary restrictions: If you want alt milk they have alt milks!“

“I love my visit to Howard. I enjoyed meeting the owner who was very friendly and attentive, and even gave me samples to try which I love. I will come back here to see my new friends and to try the different things that they offer in their menus. I recommend this place With my five stars“

“Fun, cute place with chill atmosphere and delicious treats. Try the crepes!“

“Good coffee! Even better now they hace La Colombe!“

“Lunch was absolutely great. I would definitely go again!“

“Great Mission Amazing Staff. Empowering the Community. Visit Clean Water Café and Support the cause.“

“Shoutout to Lightbulb Coffee Shop! Awesome Iced Coffee with oat milk and a Dirty Chai! We will be back!!“

“Over a month ago while on a day trip to Upper Montclair with friends, I spied an artisanal chocolatier. Inside were bars, confections, hot chocolate and bark. I bought three bars for each of my friends. For myself, I took a Dominican Republic bar of organic single origin 66% and a packet of orangettes. I decided to eat both in Pune. The bar was enjoyed with every bite. The chocolate was smooth, non acidic and imparted a tasty finish. The orangettes I regrigerated due to the hot weather and have been eating and savoring each morsel slowly. Both my friends enjoyed their bars. The lady helping us was informative and gave us samples. When I return home, I plan to make another visit as it's far nicer than buying it online.“

“This is my favorite coffee place in Newark. I was just sitting in my office sipping on a latte that I ordered earlier today and had a moment of joy because it's so good, despite being a few hours old. Their espresso drinks are excellent, their cold brew is excellent, their drip coffee is excellent. And they get fantastic baked goods from a local bakery.“

“The atmosphere is chill and I really like the Airplane vibe. The Airline seats really give it a nice touch. Coffee was great! Also love that old style Airline ticker on the wall. Will be back.“

“The guy that works there is amazing, patient and nice! By far the only employee that actually make sure he’s getting the orders correct. He’s amazing!

The owner made my drink a month or so ago & gave me the wrong bubbles I asked for regular and she ended up giving me brown sugar and said can I come back the next day she will give me a free one lol long story short she wasn’t there the next day because I bring my daughter to this location and she was too lazy to fix my drink the day she messed it up. I get she was overwhelmed by working alone and having a lot of people ordering but she has to do better as an OWNER! I have a business myself and it’s a lot of things I do not do because you have to be professional.“

“Best ice cream shop in Essex County if not the entire state of NJ. You can taste the difference in quality, creaminess, ingredients, no artificial flavors. Small micro batches made with natural ingredients and real flavors. Great owner and staff. Very nice people who go above and beyond to help create a wonderful experience. Small space but the flavor is large. They are getting ready to launch their second storefront in Lyndhurst. Go check them out. You won’t be disappointed. Favorite flavors include: Strawberry Baklava Chocolate But all are incredibly good!“

“Had a terrible experience today. They gave me the wrong sandwich. Tried to call them to send me a new one but all you get is a voicemail. Emailed them and even messaged them on Instagram and they never responded. So I was stuck at work all day without any food or any reimbursement“

“I got an order off Uber eats today. I got two beef pastelitos and two tostadas. Both were perfect. The only reason I took off a star is because I ordered 2 mini chocolate cake desserts and received two mini carrot cakes instead. I honestly hate carrot cake so bad so it was disappointing because I did want something sweet. I also understand things happen. I would definitely recommend, hopefully next time I can try to the chocolate cake!“

“Great dessert,good expresso ☕️ and wonderful company...thank you for this little corner Candida“

“Wonderful chill vibe, great teas, coffees, and pastries. Demetri and Saska have created a lovely refuge for food, conversation, Music and Art!“

“Amazing food! They Dont take reservations but its worth the wait“

“This place is beautiful, quaint, and welcoming. The desserts and pastries are delicious! My only critique is that it seems that flavor had been unecesarily sacrificed for “healthiness” on a few dishes like the oatmeal pancake, and quiche. Regardless, we will be back for the delicious coffee and pastries next time we are on the east coast!“

“Got a cake made for Christmas and it was so delicious and beautiful. One of the best cakes I’ve ever had vegan or non-vegan.“

“Great atmosphere! Yummy ice cream!“

“I Recommend their Classic Espresso Blend.“

“This is such a cute little cafe! Their street parking can be a little hectic, depending on when you go, but it's not terrible. Normal for the area. Food is fresh, and looks great. Staff were not the friendliest (no "hello" or "have a nice day"), but not rude either.

Taste-wise, the drinks were great! The food was hit or miss. The bagels were a bit tough but the fruits were fresh.

They don't have much seating. While the furniture is beautiful, it takes up a lot of space and doesn't offer enough room. Many people were saving seats, as well as small groups taking up large tables. I went during a weekend morning, when we were the only ones on line, and there was no space for four people. My group and I sat outside and there was garbage and leftover food out.

Overall, I'd come back again if I was in the area. The price is reasonable and the food is ok.“

“This is the second time I have visited and will definitely return it’s a great place with amazing food and atmosphere!“
