B18 is one of my favorite breakfast spots. Conveniently located near Path and HBRL, it offers delectable selections of pastries and savories (yes, savories is a word. You don't need to say savory food; just say savories). Their burritos are a very good option for breakfast; reasonably sized, yet filling. You can customize your own too. They come toasted and well packaged shut in their tortilla wrap, so that you do not make a mess and fool of yourself while skimming through your TPS report for that 9.30 am meeting Susan scheduled. Winners, in my opinion, are the avocado toast (every basic bitch's favorite), Santa Fe burrito, Southern potato and eggs, and smoked salmon tart. If you are veering toward the sweet side, then definitely the banana pecan waffle. Quick caveat: the prices are steep....and my thought is that it may be because their ingredients are quality, and their location is premium. To me, it is a treat and regard it as such. So, in the rare moments of indulgence, B18 is on my radar. read more

Ordered an omelette for pickup (I live down the block, less than 5 min walk). Good portion size and looks great, until I cut in and take my first bite. Omelette was basically cold. Eggs were cooked through but cheese wasn't melted and spinach wasn't cooked at all. I had to pop it into the microwave after. read more

I used to go here fairly often for a coffee and snack. I decided to try it again this week and got two veggie burgers to go. The vibe and ambience hadn't changed and it still felt nice as i waited. Service was ok. The veggie burgers however were both burnt; the patty and the bun. I doubt that was intentional but to burn both meals is very disappointing . read more

The workers were very friendly and the coffee is ok but the food HECK NO. I ordered a 16 dollar egg sandwhich. Nope you heard me correctly 16 DOLLARS!! I thought it would at least have some effort into it. I swear my egg sandwich is the saddest thing I've ever seen. Flat, bacon was clearly cooked hours ago. Bread is so thin might as well be a wheat thin. Such a waste of money stay away from the food!! read more

Had to really use the bathroom , I know if not all stores policy is customers only can use the bathroom , instead of waiting Till I exited the bathroom which if he did no problem, dude opens the bathroom door then waits outside the door to tell me it's for paying customers only ( which I was planing on leaving a 5$ tip instead since I just ran in there but the fact the employee came in the bathroom then proceeded to wait is crazy & when I left there was a line waiting . So he stopped serving people to literally follow me. read more

We stopped in B18 for a quick late lunch while visiting my daughter in her new digs in Jersey City. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. We had the Korean Steak sandwich and it was excellent. It had really nice flavors and the and the side salad was also really good. The Cortado was very good also.They have a nice selection of baked goods and other options. It is a little pricey but isn't everything in the Metro NY area? Definitely will return. read more

Tried out this place a few months back based on a friend's recommendation and I must say, it was pretty good for a coffee shop. They had been ordering coffee and a few sandwiches from here pretty regularly so I had to try this place when I visited them. We had a takeout order from this place for a couple of coffees and some sandwiches. The coffee was fantastic. I had mocha latte. For breakfast, I gave ham and cheese croissant a shot and my friends had ordered avocado toast and a chicken wrap. The food was amazing, albeit, on the expensive side. Everything tasted great and fresh, was cooked properly and wasn't soggy or anything, which you typically expect from a coffee shop, unfortunately. It was refreshing to try out this place and experience such amazing food and coffee. read more

The PLT proves to be an effective forum for prosciutto, but my second order here was dreary. The sandwich was nearly tomato-less. It's faster than Uber Eats competitors, but maybe too much so. read more

They have a rewards program which I love! You have to make 10 purchases and then you get a free coffee. It's worth getting the rewards card if you plan on visiting this cafe frequently. They have ample space to dine in and dine out, and not too loud so you can work out of here. read more

I've been here so many times I can't count anymore! It's a great place to grab a cup of coffee, meet friends for brunch, or grab a quick lunch. You can't go wrong with any of their sandwiches. I've ordered their bulgogi bowl on more than one occasion. Before the pandemic, I used to go here once in a while to work. It was nice. I like the staff that works here. read more

It's about 130 steps from my apartment building to B18, so when I run out of iced coffee at home, this is the next best place to go. Extra large iced, no room. Remember "extra large" because that's their biggest one. Large looks more like a medium, and anything smaller is far too small. The only coffee place on "this side of the light rail," B18 has plenty of options for breakfast or lunch other than coffee. So it's actually much more than your average coffee shop with plenty of AM and midday food options. If you are in a hurry there's some easy grab-and-go food, and if you have more time, their menu is pretty robust. I've yet to explore anything more than coffee, but I'm thinking a treat-yo-self day work-from-home lunch next week is in order. They used to have a $10 minimum for credit cards, but that went away in March once COVID started. Speaking of... COVID stuff: Mostly business as usual, wear a mask when you go in to order. Outdoor seating is open, and well-spaced. Indoor seating is still closed, but I suspect that will open up shortly at a limited capacity. read more

B18 has been a part of my fiancé and I's weekend ritual for a few months now and we love it. It's across the street from our building so we just casually walk over for a quick breakfast or brunch. It's like a step above a coffee shop, so don't come here expecting a full breakfast spread. We tend to dine in, but you also can grab and go! My favorites are the French toast and pancakes. They have really good iced coffee as well. B18 has a nice atmosphere, great for eating with people, alone or just coming in to get some work done. My only random gripe is that on the lunch menu they don't have regular pizza- it's all white pizza lol. Other than that I totally recommend stopping in for some coffee or a quick bite! read more

This place wasn't particularly that good. It was a "Korean" brunch/cafe but the dishes I got were very disappointing and barely tasted Korean, basically being a Trader Joe's take on Asian food. The place overall looked nice and would be a good place to hang out for coffee but I'd avoid the food. read more

I love everything about B18 I keep coming back! It's such a great café to have in this area of Jersey City. The vibe is super cute, they have a good amount of seating or you can order to go. The have a really extensive menu. Their matcha lattes are the best I've had in this area. I also love their Southern Potato Egg bowl. Everyone I take here loves the food too. They have great daily soups too like their Italian Wedding soup for only $6 with toast that I've gotten on the go. The service is super friendly. The only thing is paying if you're sitting down is a little awkward. Since you're not really being waited on I go up to the counter to pay. I can't wait to try more of their items! read more

Great place to have coffee and work. Ample space inside allows you to work without having people right by you. Decent coffee (dark roasted), nice, clean interior, friendly employees. This review is based on the coffee and savory items I have had here. I never had breakfast here, so can't speak for that. read more

It's a decent cafe that I would come to again if I needed something quick. I've lived in the building across from this place for 3 years now and I tried it for the first time a few weeks ago. I have my go-to spots close by so I never ventured out more, but with this place right across the street, I had to stop in and check it out. I ordered an iced matcha latte and an espresso for my husband. We then found out they had a $10 minimum for CC so we also ordered a glaze donut. The matcha latte was good, not the best, but good. The donut was a huge disappointment. By the time we ordered it, it was already very cold and it just didn't taste as great. We didn't have any issues with the owner or the staff. Most of them were pretty nice to us and we were able to sit at a table without any issues. read more

I really enjoy going to Beechwood for breakfast or lunch, but I am giving them 4 stars because they have a credit card minimum of $10. I work down the street from Beechwood and often go there for coffee on the way to work. I barely ever have cash on me so in order to get coffee with my credit card, I have to get a $10 gift card and with my card so I meet their minimum. I've done this twice but unfortunately the first time, the gift card I was supposed to receive must have been accidentally switched with a blank card because when I went back to use this gift card, it was blank. Their personal cheesecakes and chocolate chip cookies are absolutely delicious, I would highly recommend any of their desserts. read more

It certainly is a decent cafe and someplace I would come to if I ever wanted a quick bite to eat. Knowing they are owned by beechwood, I expected a bit more out of their coffee but it was good. Their sandwiches are HUGE. Like I would split this with someone else to eat and still be full. It's not too crowded and a good spot to work out of if you need a break and are in the area. They look to have more seating upstairs for a bit of a quieter feel. It's a good addition to the area and I'm sure a huge positive to many of the folks in the new buildings. read more

This is the got to place for a quick coffee or snack. Owned by the same owners of Beechwood Cafe in Jersey City, this cafe breathes a new life into the area. I'm so exited to share this gem with the Yelpers who may find themselves in need of a quick caffeine fix. The prices are reasonable. Their food selections are wide in variety from brownies, rice crispy treats, scones, muffins, danish, to cookies and sticky buns. Being new and in a new building, it is very clean and has a wide open feel. Plenty of natural light that enhances the mood of a small or large cup of their fresh brew. Come check it out. I promise you will not be disappointed. It is beside of the light rail and new Downtown Pharmacy location. read more

I went here on my 30 minute lunch break and I ordered a grilled chicken quesadilla I asked the cashier how long it would be to make my order because I am on lunch. He then goes 10 minutes 25 minutes pass by and then I get my order. If I had known prior it was going to take that long I wouldn't have ordered anything. I wasted majority of my break standing and waiting for an order. That should have been 10 minutes. If you are on a lunch break and you want to grab something quick and eat, do not come here you'll be waiting 25 to 30 minutes for your order read more

Love this place. Staff is friendly and the food is quite good. The food is fairly price.

Honestly this spot isn't my favorite. It's quite expensive for what you're getting, and the food isn't very good. Plus, they recently increased their prices even more. Not the best. read more

I ordered eggs with hash and pico. It was good. The food was fresh. I wish they would have cooked the potatoes longer to bring out more flavor but it was solidly good. Thee coffee is good. And they saved me because I really wanted eggs and this was the only coffee shop I could find open after 4pm on Sunday still serving eggs. read more

In this day and age where customer service very much dictates the success of a business, I'm surprised at the level of mediocrity I've encountered at this place. I vividly remember how the server would keep reminding us about not taking any seat in the dining area because we hadn't ordered "food" and were just taking out coffee. Also, on numerous occasions, I've been served a mocha that tasted more like a "latte". Now I'm not an expert on coffees but I'm sure it can't be that difficult to get those nuances right. None the less, my experiences have been much better over the course of 2017 and we've started coming here more often. Amongst the positives, the place does have a cool location right by the river and can be a good spot to chill during the summers. They have a decent selection of cup cakes although they'd be better off serving them warm rather than cold. In terms of the food, I've tried out the "Kimchi Fried Rice" and "Veggie California Burger" and both of them have been really good with respect to taste and quantity. The place does have seating upstairs and wifi as well if you're looking to get some work done. They also do have a significant brunch menu although I've never tried that yet. Also, If you're short of cash you can always buy a "Beechwood Gift Card" that lets you pay by a credit card (something which is much appreciated). In terms of the negatives, the service still has a lot of room for improvement although things seem so much better if I look back at 2016 read more

I associate B18 with weekends.... weekends that I treasure and love and would only spend in places that I love too. Glencel and the rest of the staff there are super awesome and friendly, and will make sure that your weekend starts off on the right foot. The coffees will always hit the spot, and depending on how hungry you are, you have a pretty good range of food choices too. The menu is actually going to expand further as well! Personal favorites - for a lighter day, I go with the Smoked Salmon Sandwich... yes it has cream cheese on it so its not CRAZY light... but not as oily or heavy as a burger that you would get for brunch at another spot. For normal days, I'll go with the Mc and B or the EBC... B18s take on bacon|sausage egg and cheese sandwiches. They're legit. The eggs are buttery and layered so you get a nice texture as you bite through. The bakery items are just as good... croissants and cookies are always an option too. And if you're there for lunch... the bulgogi Tacorean bowl is really really good. I got that over cilantro rice and it was amaaaazing! read more

This is the worst pancakes I've ever had. I wish that I read the reviews before ordering it as others said it's not good and they're right.
