Caroline GOctober 10, 2014Everything. These baristas are some of the best in the business in terms of knowledge and preparation. They roast locally and take extreme care in their preparation. A+ experience.
The best cup in town uncontested, but where they really shine is service. All the staff are friendly and personal with superb taste in music. Sit back, relax, and catch some tunes and caffeine.
Do yourself a favor and ask the hepcats behind the counter to recommend a swell pour over -- they're the experts.
Matt NeuteboomAugust 14, 2015Really love the cold brew ice coffee here. You can buy it in a resealable bottle, so you can break it out at a moments notice and get your caffeine fix without having to brew up a pot of coffee.
Christopher LeeJune 1, 2014Best coffee on this side of the hudson, and rivals some of the best coffee houses in NYC, plus they roast their own beans.
Anthony SparacinoJuly 9, 2016Best coffee around here. Also, their truck is @ Exchange Place every day. Huge +
Hands down the best coffee in the neighborhood. The baristas know what they're doing and the coffee is roasted locally.
Corey ManiconeAugust 13, 2014The Heights finally got a great coffee spot. Want a lesson in coffee? These guys know their stuff.
Best coffee roaster in the area, and the cafe always has the best vibe.
Get your coffee to go and take it to the beautiful park across the street overlooking the city. You won't regret it.
- CarolynJanuary 30, 2015Coffee is good, ambiance trendy and staff are nice. Cool place to chill for a bit and relax.
Mai & ZuluFebruary 22, 2014Try the Ethiopian Yirgacheffe for blueberry coffee notes while it lasts. Nicest guys around. Welcome to the neighborhood.
DeannaOctober 23, 2014Incredibly nice people! Awesome mod decor, good music, good coffee. Could use wifi though!
Do you like your chai spicy? You must come here. The coffee is also killer -- best in JC.
- If you like your coffee really hot (temperature wise) then order the pour over Kenyan. Be forewarned though it's very strong.
The ultimate coffee snob shop in the Hoboken/Jersey City area.
Jeff HNovember 5, 2016No half and half, no 1%, no 2%. Only whole milk or almond milk.. Will not be coming back. Coffee is also bitter.
