I thought I'd work from a café for the first time in years, and this was a nice welcome back. Tasty iced tea and donut, friendly staff, cute decor. read more

Food: great. Coffee: great. Vibe is kind of like if a sorority house got a Spin subscription.

Literally my new favorite spot. Never disappoints in person or with delivery. Worth every penny. The best breakfast and donuts in town! And then the salads... if I could order this place all day for every meal, I would. Pick up a Dirty Lemon when you're there! It'll change your life. read more

To say I love this place is an understatement. I've never had anything I was disappointed by, but will say I struggle to change my order from my usual West Coast salad... I recently moved out of Hoboken, but make it a point to order from Alfalfa at least once every time I'm back. The salads have the perfect mix of ingredients - without any overpowering the other (i.e.: too much lettuce, not enough extras). The fact that you can customize how much dressing you want & if you want it mixed/on the side is a huge bonus, as well. If you're in a "treat yo'self" mood, do not pass up on getting a donut. They're so fresh & not "too" sweet. And hey...if you wake up early and it's not time for a salad yet - their breakfast burritos are also a 10/10. read more

Great salads and even better portion sizes! Turn around time is very efficient and I love that I can keep half for lunch tomorrow. This time around I ordered the West-coast salad but had it with their honey soy dressing swapped in. So so good! read more

Alfalfa - West coast salad - Salad Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Alfalfa is my go-to multiple times a week. Everyone loves their pre-designed salads. I build my own and they have gotten it right every single time (which is an unheard of accuracy rate!). The staff is friendly, the service is speedy, the ingredients are fresh, and their gluten free donuts are a delicious treat. read more

First the donuts are amazing. 2nd finally got around to ordering lunch. Salad was delicious and well made and dressed. Got a wrap too and was perfect. We will be back as regulars for sure. read more

My coworker & other locals raved about this place so I placed a delivery order today and WOW. I'm hooked. The quality and quantity is great for the price. I'm almost full and I haven't even dented the salad. I appreciate how fresh this meal is and look forward to ordering much more often. Huge thank you to those working!! This is the salad of my dreams. I was told the wraps are insane too, can't wait to try. read more

Alfalfa - Dear Darla! The goat cheese is so creamy & I love that I had the option to have the dressing mixed in. - Salad Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

I went into Alfalfa to see what was so special about the salad pop-up, and honestly, I was not blown away. Yes, the ingredients were fresh; the salad was huge and packed with my selected toppings; service came with a smile; and the food was brought out almost immediately. However, I was not overly impressed by the salad green options (no arugula or spinach) or the toppings (no mushrooms, extra fee for fancy peppers vs bell ones). I just felt like they could really step up their game with additional options. Also, when I build my own salad, I like to select my ingredients from a display case in front of me, rather than off a boring menu. Here, you must compose your order blindly, while they construct the salad in the back kitchen, leaving you unsure of what your first order will look like. Overall, great food and service, but needs more variety. read more

I order from here very, very often and must say, one of the best salads in the North Jersey area! They use really fresh and high quality ingredients, have some awesome dressing options and give you an insane portion for a normal price. I love that you get to pick if you want the dressing on light, medium or heavy and they don't charge extra for heavy. Something people may not know is that the egg wrap is one of the best egg "sandwiches" I've ever had, so tasty, packed with freshly scrambled eggs, potatoes and cheese, served with both the red and tomatillo salsas. It's one of my fav things there. But of course, they can't be perfect, the donuts are more like a heavy bread dough, not a pinch of sugar, like eating bread with frosting. I tried it with some friends and we all had the same thoughts. I'm looking for a classic donut or baked cake donut if doing a healthy twist, or brioche dough like my fav, Salty Donut in Miami. Anyways, everything else is a winner. Lastly, the soups... the soups here are so delicious and fresh. I only wish they had more daily options or they made whatever the best seller is everyday and then a second daily soup. I've tried many and so far, I've liked them all!! read more

Just moved to Hoboken not to long ago from the city and Alfalfa has replaced my love for Sweet Green!! The salads and food are not only DELICIOUS, they are creative and healthy. The portions are massive, I still have trouble finishing my salad in one sitting. Finally got a chance to try their new buffalo cauliflower bowl and it does not disappoint Make sure to also check out the variety of drinks, the ginger lemonade hits that spot without the sugar rush and nasty after taste. Only thing missing is a gluten free baked good, but I hear the donuts do not disappoint read more

Very cute interior with a lot of seating and wifi. I came here for a quick bite and was drawn to their donuts. There are many flavors to choose from and had decorative frosting designs. read more

Love this place! The salad are wraps are always delicious! Favs: the Greek salad and the Peruvian chicken wrap. Yum!

Wonderful salad with great choices for veggies and proteins. I'd have given it 5 stars if I hadn't ordered a bottled drink . . . Turns out it was the same price as my salad, so buyer beware! read more

If I could give Alfalfa 10 stars, I would. This salad spot is hands down a win every time. Not only are the salads fresh, filling, and delicious, but the owners and staff are some of the most pleasant people in the business. And don't forget to try the incredible donuts as a treat! Having said that, I was not at all surprised to learn that Alfalfa was on Yelp's most popular NJ restaurants in 2019. Eating healthy in 2020 will be an easy thing to do with Alfalfa! read more

Everything is just great and fresh. Salad is a salad add toppings choose your dressing and enjoy . There coffee and lattes are my fave not to mention there outstanding donuts I'm obsessed with alfalfa the team and over all atmosphere. Good satisfying heathy food read more

So good! They delivered quick and the Darla wrap was sooo crispy and flavorful! They also serve homemade doughnuts which are fresh and yummy! read more

Amazing!!!!! I've had Alfalfa twice now and I'm so obsessed with this place. My go to is the Laguna (can't go wrong) but I definitely want to try out a few more. These salads will fill you up & make you feel great after. I'm so tired of places giving a tiny amount of salad- Alfalfa is definitely not that with their huge portions. Try this place, you won't regret it!! read more

Such great salads and staff is so nice and friendly! Order from them multiple times a week and always a great experience.

Super cool new salad place. They did a great job remodeling the diner that was there before it. They've also paid homage to the former tenants by maintaining a selection of super indulgent donuts and small treats. Kind of an odd pairing, but the salads are huge, healthy but tasty, and not exorbitantly expensive which is good. I haven't tried their donuts, but if I were in the mood for a really sinful sweet treat, I'd try theirs. They have free WiFi, plenty of space to sit and work, eat, and they have water and lemon water available for everyone at no charge with tin cups for sustainability purposes. Definitely worth swinging by for one of their salads if you're in the mood for a healthy, hearty meal. read more

I don't know why a reasonably priced and fulling salad is hard to find in a foodie area.. until Alfalfa came along. I cannot get enough of their salads. These are not the type of salads that make you feel like you just ate a fast food meal. The salads are filled with fresh ingredients! I always order the Laguna with chicken or the Peruvian Chicken salad. I literally ordered the salads three times in a week for lunch one week because you cannot find a quality salad anywhere else. The portions are a good size and you have the option of having your dressing mixed in and can pick how much dressing you want. The amount of dressing they put on it is always perfect. Pre Covid Ive definitely broken my diet with the donuts they sell as well. If you're trying to diet do not look at the donuts when you go in... you will get one. During covid this place is not trying to have you breathe all in their store. You order your food ahead of time and they sit it all bagged and ready on a shelf in alphabetical order. You cannot get passed the entry way. The staff still greets you in a friendly manner when you walk in to pick your food up even though you have no reason to interact with them. Love the salads, love the covid process! Its the perfect place to get a quick and decent salad for lunch. read more

I love a build your own concept! Alfalfa does it right and always has so many orders in their to go section, I can see why there so popular. 4 and not a 5 because many toppings are additional costs so the customizations can add up very quickly. In addition, I think sometimes theres a lack of toppings. Not to say they skimp in any way, just that I expected more topping and less salad base for the price paid. read more

Forget the salads, come here for the chill vibes and doughnuts! The boyfriend and I stopped by on 3/10/19 for lunch and we got the OG Cardini and Far East. The salads were not impressive, however, I would love to spend an afternoon working here. read more

Best salad of any place I've tried!! Fresh ingredients, everything perfectly ripe- even the avocados (which is always what most places mess up.) I got home from work and of course have nothing really to eat- so tried looking through Uber Eats for something around here- which was where I first heard of Alfalfa. I put my order in- but unfortunately the app wouldn't let it go through because they were approaching closing time. Since I had invested so much time and effort already in my "make your own salad," I took a chance and called the place directly to see if I could still get the order in. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that yes they would get me in under the wire! The guy of the phone Andrew, and the guy who delivered my salad (very quickly!) Dan, were very nice and accommodating, and I got my delicious salad almost immediately. I will definitely be ordering from them again in the near future! Thanks guys! read more

Alfalfa is a POP-UP in Hoboken Monday - Friday at the vintage luncheonette Schnackenbergs between 12th and 13th on Washington. It serves up a healthy fare of salad an wraps BUT not your run of the mill formula. These things totally melt in your mouth - these guys totally know what they are doing. I totally love this food. They construct perfect bites of healthy but perfectly tasty and satisfy perfection. Thanks ALFALFA!!! read more

Amazing, by far the best salad I've had in a long time. Honeygrow and the other local places similar should take notes. The goat cheese in my salad might be the best goat cheese I've ever had. I'll be back - thanks again! read more

Alfalfa - Salad Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Their turmeric drink is soooo refreshing. Their salads are fresh and the service is super quick. My go-to salad place in Hoboken.

Update: I come here every so often and it's great. They definitely updated their donut recipe and they are all very good. My go to is the Peruvian chicken salad and it's so well balanced and flavorful, and the breakfast burritos are also on point. Their drinks between coffee or tea are not the fanciest but they are good quality products being used and it tastes very good. The people at the counter are always so nice and helpful and the decor is so cute if you actually sit there to eat, 10/10 would recommend read more

I only went there once but I will definitely go there again many more times. I shared with my boyfriend the lavender donut and the huckleberry, they are to die for. Huckleberry is my favorite one. That donut is so fluffy, nothing to compare with the big chains donuts. I also had the chorizo buritos for breakfast and it was all perfect. Don't forget to try it with the green sauce. I can't wait to try their salad. read more

Love their salads and wraps! Such a great healthy option for lunch when I'm working from home. The oat milk matcha latte is my guilty pleasure , such a treat. And don't get me started on the donuts...yum. read more

I personally don't like the new modern minimalist Instagram influencer vibe (light Nordic wood and letter boards) but I'm pretty biased considering growing up this place was frozen in time as a 50s soda shoppe and it was all original and pretty much a museum. Anyway fast forward to today, this place is cute and really just has salads. They're ok. The desserts are good. Love having fresh donuts near my apt. Not too much variety in food but still good nonetheless. read more

My go to salad place..Salad is delicious and very filling. Customer service is amazing made a mistake on my online order and called they fixed it immediately. Eat here trust me! read more

Alfalfa is my go-to when I need a healthy, quick, filling meal. Their salads are all delicious - I love the Greek, Buffalo cauliflower and the one with the strawberries and dates. The breakfast burrito is amazing too and the chai latte. Have always enjoyed the food I got here, so highly highly recommend. read more

Favorite lunch place! Delivery is SO quick!!! I order from here once a week. Employees are always so kind and helpful!

The grand opening of Alfalfa is a dream come true! Let me start by saying I am a salad snob. It's been hard to locate a good salad spot in town that delivers fresh ingredients without breaking the bank. I met two friends there today for lunch and got the Seasonal Bowl because I saw it had a light hot sauce drizzle (after years of doing that in my own kitchen it was fate). It was incredible. Portions are big for the price! Sometimes salads leave me feeling "if only it had 1-2 more ingredients...". This was absolutely not the case. I just wish I got the CBD drink - something for next time. The place itself is wide open and spacious with lots of natural light. The owners are extremely nice and helpful to first timers. This will for SURE be my go-to spot for lunch, coffee and a little computer work! read more

Love this place. Very cute takeaway spot. The salad I had was sooo good and filling. Better than sweet green. I like how it comes tossed. The breakfast burrito is HUGE and so delicious. Add the chorizo! The donuts are tasty, specifically marscapone, but they are COLD. Got them first thing in the morning and they were weirdly cold like they'd been defrosted? Still tasted good and fresh-ish. Can't wait to try more salads read more

The nicest people in the world work here + excellent food. I order here the time; Manny their delivery guy is rocks!

Stopped in for lunch and was blown away. High quality salad ingredients and great menu variety, including lots of extra goodies. Try an espresso with a gourmet doughnut! The Vybes strawberry lavender CBD drink was stellar as well. Great place for a meal with coworkers, friends or alone! read more
