From the music, amazing art and great staff, it is a cafe I’m so glad I discovered and got to try. The pastries are so good, especially the beignets they have. Also, the drinks alone are worth the visit. I had the chance to try the white chocolate raspberry latte and a London fog. Beyond amazing and will be coming back again soon!

Awesome coffee shop, great atmosphere , friendly staff.

Perfect neighborhood coffee shop. Friendly staff with a perfect mix of comfy and casual that you can bring kids or chat with friends and vibe without worrying you’re talking too loud, but still quiet and calm enough to get work done and be productive on a laptop in equal measure.

Love how they pull so much from the community: I think they source the beans from local roasters and I know the tea from the local Random Tea Room. Every time I go in there’s a new little treat from local creators, whole loaves of fresh Dead King Bread from just down the road or wonderful mugs from local artist Speedy Squirrel. Rotating art displays from local artists on the walls.

Snacks are DELICIOUS and they always have a nice mix of savory and sweet pastries like having leek and Parmesan danishes alongside sweet almond croissants and afternoon snacks like brownies. Everything I’ve gotten from iced black coffee to fancy London Fog has been tasty, but most of all I love the dirty chai here.

Also decor is super cute vibey second-hand vintage eclectic that feels very welcoming.

Exactly what a coffee shop should be. The latte tasted better than it looked, and you can see it looked pretty good. I got a blueberry oatmeal bar to go with it, which was a delight.

As a hermit myself, Eremita is the most inviting coffee shop in the area. Yeah sure you could go to Dunkin or Starbucks also on Ridge Ave , but neither of those stores are anything like Eremita. When you walk into the cutest coffee shop in town you’ll fall in love with its eclectic charm instantly. You can immediately tell that this place was built with love and care. They have art on the walls you can buy and other cool events like open mic nights and crafting. While they don’t have sandwiches or big meals, the pastries are to die for, especially the savory puff pastries. There are probably a dozen or so small coffee shops around, but Eremita will also be my go to.

The baristas here are always super friendly, and the drinks are always tasty! There seems to be some lingering smell from possibly an HVAC issue. If it wasnt for that, I'd definitely hang out more here as they're pretty close to the house

Stopped by Eremita Café and loved it! I had a matcha and a chocolate croissant — both were excellent. Cozy vibe, great service, and definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to.

Really my favorite cafe in the area. The music, decor, people, beverages are all really nice!
My biggest and really only concern is that it gets REALLY hot during the summer, and I have found it hard to work in the cafe for as long as I would like because of it so, I would LOVE if they turned on the A/C, even just for temps above 80. They have a fan, but there have been several times I have been in, the temp is above 85 and the fan isn’t on.
