They call your name once your food and drink is ready. This place has an outdoor and indoor area. Honestly, if it's a nice day, you should appreciate the outdoor setting. I had the coconut latte which is similar to like a Coquito and it was very good. I swapped the coconut milk to whole milk just as a preference. The grilled cheese was decent. They were missing some cheeses by the lady behind the counter did let us know.

The service was prompt! Parking is available around the block, pretty easy to find space. There was a great selection of sweets. There was indoor and outdoor seating.

I'd probably pass on the croissants next time and try another baked item. Would definitely visit again! Great spot for friends, family, or a date. Definitely visit if you're in the area!

The two people behind the counter were extremely friendly and welcoming. It was noon and I was the only person at this time. I asked for suggestions they recommended the banana pudding latte or tiramisu and I decided on tiramisu which was beautifully presented and strong! I usually like sweet but this was decent I also didn't ask for more sugar in it. I tried their almond croissant which although it wasn't warmed up tasted good. Overall I'd come back to try other drinks.

The layout is designed in a way that keeps the line easily organized, something I can appreciate. If you've read any of my former reviews, you'll know I despise a disorganized setup for lines. Their menu has a variety of specialty drinks to choose from, and I couldn't resist getting an iced blueberry pancake latte. We received our drinks quickly after placing our order, so shout out to the staff. We both really liked the coffee base itself and knew we'd be coming back. The décor is cool and I loved the vibe; it has a rustic feel that made the space feel very welcoming. We also met the super chill owner briefly and he let us know there was a sitting area in the back with some art on the wall. There is also ample parking to the side of where the shop is located, always a plus.

It used to be the old Libby's hot dog place right by the Passaic River. There are lots of parking spaces and even a new bright lamp outside that illuminates the whole parking lot. The minute we stepped inside it just felt so cozy. The Cafe is Palestinian-owned and the owners/ servers were very nice. The couches inside reminded me of cafes in Turkey. We ordered the following items : - iced golden matcha - hot tea - kunefe The servers told us the kunefe will take about 10 minutes or so since it's fresh. We enjoyed it so much that we purchased another one. They were so nice that they treated us to the cheesy pita bread. There are board games like Jenga, dominoes, etc to play with while you are having your meal. Overall a hidden gem in Paterson.

Another pair of friends had the Dubai chocolate kunafa and that was sweet and very chocolately! The other desserts looked delicious.

I ordered the 'Coquito iced latte', a guava & queso pastry, and a 'Coquito Tres Leches'...all 'To Go'. Let me just start by saying that the 'Tres Leches Coquito' should be Illegal of how Good it is. The quesito & guava pastry is right behind it of how yummy it is. They DONT skimp on the ingredients. I've never had a quesito & guava pastry so nicely stuffed with a perfect balance of guava and queso. My Message to the owner, "Te La Comiste Papi!"

The coquito latte is SO much better iced as traditional coquito is enjoyed as a chilled drink; definitely recommend, it was so delicious. Also tried the Cuban sandwich, as I ordered it I was asked what kind of cheese I wanted, which I thought was strange because a classic Cuban comes with Swiss cheese, if you put any other cheese on it, it's not a Cuban sandwich. Nonetheless the sandwich was tasty, but it could use a little less salt. A family member ordered the alcapurrias & yuca relleno to share. The yuca relleno was tasty & the alcapurria was better than my first visit here but could use a bit less salt. Sorrullos & guava quesito were yummy, definitely a favorite here along with the iced coquito latte. Overall, food was pretty good, a bit on the saltier side, but not too over salted that it would've made it inedible. Ambience was a laid-back. We did have to ask for the AC to be turned down a bit because it was so warm inside, I was sweating & that didn't make it a comfortable visit for a dine in experience. They were able to turn it down so it cooled down eventually. Would come again and try more menu item!
