18 Best Cafes near Scranton

“Great atmosphere with excellent baristas and fantastic coffee!“

“a hidden gem you should definitely know about. The staff here are incredibly welcoming, the food is top-notch, and their desserts are a must-try. This morning, I’m indulging in my all-time favorite breakfast sandwich: sausage, bacon, egg, and cheese on a perfectly toasted hard roll. Honestly, nothing satisfies quite like this!“

“We were in Scranton for a softball tournament and a friend from back home recommended Joyce’s. We were so glad we tried it because the food was great and the owner were so very kind. They treated us like family even got pictures with us which I posted. We are planning a trip back just to see them!“

“Atmosphere is inviting and the staff is amazing! Best part of my morning 🥰“

“I like that it's in walking distance from my apartment at Mulberry Towers. I can go there get milk and pick up something to with my food stamps. I just moved to downtown Scranton and there aren't that many places I can go to within walking distance.I do think it's dark inside and makes it hard to see things. I don't like that you have to buy something and get the keys before you can use restroom. There aren't many places to go downtown and sometimes you really need to go.“

“I had the best iced latte ever there today while visiting Scranton! My husband and I were there to run the Office 5k and so glad we stopped there to caffeinate beforehand! The game boards on the wall were amazing as well!“

“Please make it a point to find and visit this nostalgic local coffee shop! It always has a fun vibe and it’s great to meet local folks and patronize our independent businesses. The BlackWatch cafe is adorable, cozy, so unique. The selection is so innovative so it has a lot more to offer than just coffee. They definitely have a foam art and they do not disappoint here. They have smoothie that people rave about as well! But can we talk about the building itself? The roaring fireplace at the entry is perfect for a winter’s day or Autumn night! It's loaded with history and decorated with classic literary and fan pieces, interesting conversation pieces, and fun works of art. Not to mention what Pat is doing with the outside patio…. it’s such an asset to Scranton and the sad thing is, no one knows it’s there! do yourself a favor, pass out DD and ⭐️ bucks for the BlackWatch Cafe Nay Aug Park in Scranton,PA!“

“Cute spot with delicious food and drinks. Will definitely be back“

“Excellent food, excellent staff, and a beautiful place. I highly recommend this beautiful market. The staff was attentive and accommodating for the bridal shower I hosted for my sister. The food was excellent and the coffee bar was delicious. Thank you so much for making our event so special!“

“Tried Maximum Zen for the first time today and had the ginger mint tea and a flatbread. Absolutely delicious! Hidden gem and one of the very few healthy places to grab a quick lunch!“

“Great finds, great coffee, the friendliest owner! It’s always a MUST!“

“Had the grandma Pizza for the first time tonight…. Fantastic! Thin and crispy, just the right amount of pesto, and an excellent cheese blend. I will definitely be back!“

“To preface, I'm the pickiest of eaters...We literally just devoured our meals (mine-meatloaf w mashed potatoes and scalloped potatoes. Hubby's- chicken cutlets w vodka penne pasta and a salad) and it was so freaking delicious. I ate everything, except the mashed bc was full, and am looking forward to the next meals that Trixie puts up online. I highly recommend checking out out bc I promise you won't be disappointed.“

“Our long time friends and coworkers met there for the first time and it was FABULOUS! Carol was a doll and so interesting to talk with. Her homemade soup, finger sandwiches and desserts (try her homemade scones and homemade whipped crème) were delicious. We certainly didn’t go away hungry. Her vintage style was heartwarming. She kept filling our cups with hot water in the many teapots that she has collected, along with the many types of tea. Oh I forgot to mention she even stenciled the dining room floor!! We will certainly be back.“
