Matcha latte
Sarah P.

Stopped in here for a quick hot latte on a super cold & windy day. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not only is the way the shop is decorated super vibey, but the matcha latte was one of the best I've had in a while.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Nice & frothy and the perfect level of sweet. They have a few different iced and hot drink styles to choose from, including drip coffee, and some pretty unique flavor options. I got lavender in my matcha and it was perfect. My boyfriend enjoyed his espresso shot as well. On top of all of that service was super friendly! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is some seating inside and a bathroom, too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall 5/5 experience and I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area.

Stopped by Café Cartel and had such a great experience! The service was warm and welcoming from the moment I walked in--super friendly staff who made sure we were taken care of. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is cozy yet stylish, with a trendy vibe that makes it perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's the kind of place you could easily spend a few hours in. I tried both the matcha latte and an iced coffee--both were delicious! The matcha was smooth and not too sweet, and the iced coffee had a bold flavor that hit the spot. I'll definitely be back to try more from the menu!

Tasty coffee. Flat white with half and half slaps. Quick service. I will come back again.

I was surprised to see a Colombian coffee shop in the cut of Hoboken. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small coffee shop with very minimal indoor seating but a few outdoor seating options.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's definitely a grab and go place vs a sit down space. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you do find a spot outside it's definitely quiet because of the area being mostly residential.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] On the menu I was hoping to see like a cafe con lèche but there was not. It was the usual espresso, cappuccino etc. I opted for a cappuccino and they did have almond milk. I ordered a small and it was too big for a cappuccino. I prefer the smaller cappuccinos with a good espresso to milk ratio. While the taste of the Colombian coffee was good and strong, the almond milk had a terrible taste and didn't do the coffee any justice. The coffee would have been better with a different brand of almond milk. I saw that they had pan de bono breakfast sandwiches which is pretty dope. I opted for just a plain pan de bono which was ok. I've had better. The barista was friendly and it was not too crowded when I went. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, it's a nice change from the other coffee shops and gives Hoboken a little flare.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Colombian coffee itself is pretty good. Next time I'll probably just get an espresso by itself.

Pandebono was flat, I'm expecting better than fast food places that just microwaves them. It's supposed to have a shape to it.

Coffee, cold brew, mocha's, latte, breakfast sandwiches, coffee cake, croissants, muffins.

I gave 2 stars for the nice staff that gave us a nice game recommendation towards the end of our…read moretime there but that's about it. I cannot believe they don't serve hot food starting around 8:15pm and they close at 11pm. They only have cold items like hummus and veggies and sweets. And apparently, no outside food. Definitely a place to avoid if you want to eat a meal and play games after 8pm. It's not fun to play on an empty stomach!

This is the gold standard for board game cafes!! The ones in NYC may charge less for unlimited…read moretime, but there you're paying for a bunch of beat up games and clueless staff. This is definitely not the case at the Main Street Board Game Cafe! The $15 entrance fee makes perfect sense to me... as they have a great variety of games in surprisingly immaculate condition, and very knowledgeable staff that are happy to explain how all of the games are played. The staff are really what set this cafe apart from others like it. Learning the rules from an expert is what makes complicated strategy based games less scary and more fun!! Everything is also very clean and well maintained, and the food is tasty. Definitely not the fanciest or most complex stuff on the menu, but who's coming here for the food anyway? They make a yummy grilled cheese, and some really good strong espresso based drinks. They have a great selection of teas from the clipper ship tea company as well.

Another amazing and fabulous time. My friend and I had at the Witches Brew…read more I ordered my usual Hummus and Pita Bread, Side Salad and Sleepy Hollow Tea, they have so many other varieties to choose from but this tea is my favorite for me and my taste buds. My friend ordered the Falafel Sandwich and a Irish Breakfast Tea. Besides the delicious food what else made this time at the Witches Brew extra special. Well it was our Waitress Sam. Sam was perfection from the start of the meal to the finish. She had the best vibes and attitude and wore the coolest looking Van's. Her customer service skills outshine many other waitstaff that I've encountered in the past month. Sam is another Great addition to the already amazing team the Witches Brew employs

Long overdue visit to WBCH today with my partner, and it was everything I hoped for. We only got…read morehot drinks - a delicious hot Black Cat with lots of peanut butter, not too sweet, and my partner loved his hot Black Magic - but we are determined to come back soon to try their desserts and lunch items too. We're not vegan, but as vegetarians we love vegan restaurants that have figured out how to make deliciousness out of plant-based foods. As tasty as the drinks were, it's really the vibe that I love. So random to find a place like this in our relatively normie area - maybe we can even find other weirdos like ourselves who also feel at home in a place that celebrates spooky fun like WBCH does.

This place is so sweet. We rented out the space for a cat yoga class for our friends bachelorette…read moreand it was a hit. The staff is so friendly and helpful, the space is clean (yes, even with all the cats), and this group of cats were so playful and social. It was a great time!

We went here on a whim because we unfortunately dont have any kitties of our own but absolutely…read moreadore them so we decided to check this place out! We were there for an hour and had to reserve our spots online. We had a really nice time! They have you sign a waiver and they take you to the back room where you enter and there was a bunch of cats with all different personalities all up for adoption too! Vibes were 10/10 in there. They had the music channel on and some couches in there, some cats were more sleepy, some were super playful. Either way we were so happy to just be in the presence of them haha. They definitely do kick you out exactly once that hour is up, and the only "negative" thing about this place is the staff do have an odd energy about them. They seemed pretty cold and not very welcoming, and got a tad snippity when i was reading the info on one of the cats in the lobby telling me to leave her alone because shes eating, mind you i was over 4 feet from her crate and this cat was paying me no mind and vice versa. I chalked this up to them simply advocating for the cats in their care, so atleast it could be seen as a good thing‍ Also they had a cute little shop in the front! overall i do reccomend it! We'll definitely be back:)
