This place has been on my go to coffee shops for a while now and I finally got the opportunity to…read morego. Their specialty coffees do not disappoint. I had to get to just to try and I will definitely be back to try some seasonal flavors as well as their teas and Matcha. The freddo is creamy sweet and has a nice kick from the espresso. Definitely a very light drink. The iced caramel latte was pretty standard, but what put it over the top was the espresso, whipped cream highly recommend adding the espresso whipped cream to whatever beverage you get! The staff was friendly and helpful with recommendations, as well as bringing my drinks out to me on the patio . There is nowhere to sit on the inside, but there is an outdoor patio that is beautiful especially on a nice breezy fall afternoon. I can't wait to come back and try some other drink drinks that they have as well as their food items!!

The service was very unfriendly and almost felt like they were mocking me for my order. Standing feet away waiting for my coffee, I could hear the barista and the staff member who took my order talking rudely about it. The coffee, although it tasted good, also had no blueberry flavor. I ordered the blueberry crumb latte off of their specials board outside, and was sad to not taste any blueberry. Overall, I will not be returning. There are so many other good coffee shops in the area for similar prices that have better drinks and better service.

Def recommend their cloud cakes because they're especially soft, not too heavy and have great fruit options. The service is always very friendly, and they package the cake with candles and a knife, which is super convenient. Aside from cakes, they also have a nice selection of fresh bakery items to choose from. Need to go back to try the drinks. Place itself is very clean and neat, and looks like a great spot to sit down and do some work.

When you enter there a few areas to sit around and up at the front you can see the menu on the TV and through the glass you can see the puffs that they have available. I've only ever gotten the puffs and the cakes. They have a few different flavors (matcha, black sesame, Biscoff, oreo, etc.) and I've tried most if not all of them and they're all fairly good, not too sweet. In my opinion they taste a bit better once refrigerated for a few hours. The tres leches and strawberry matcha cakes are good as well, again, not too sweet. I'd like to try the soft serve sometime. A bit on the more expensive side so I only go there when the craving for the Asian style puffs are there. The service overall was good as the people working the front don't mind explaining the flavors of the different types of items they have for sale.

Decorations are nice, and it's pretty spacious - there was a pretty big group of us. I'm actually not sure if I drank any coffee, as I think I had my own, but everyone I was with was enjoying some. For that reason, I might not actually have much of an opinion about the coffee or food itself, or about the service, but I definitely enjoyed the ambiance quite a bit. I would definitely consider coming back to check it out again.

After having lunch in the Princeton area, illy popped up on my Yelp app. The only other times I've had illy was in San Francisco and at an airport in Rome, Italy. And both times it was memorable. We ordered the Espresso Freddo Shakerato, Caffè Latte, and Cappuccino Viennese. Each one crafted with love and attention. You know it's good coffee when it doesn't leave a nasty coffee and sugary taste in your mouth. I savored each sip. Service here is a standout, super friendly with big smiles. Highly recommend.

I got the Far East Salad, one of my recent faves, and an iced matcha latte and took a seat on their little wall of stairs. -Wifi was strong -Matcha latte was refreshing and delicious -Far East salad was soooo good! I love the crunch broccoli, the flavorful tofu, the dressing. If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend. The team is friendly and fast and brings the food right over to you. I have always been a huge Alfalfa fan so I can safely say you will love them.

And found this on yelp…read more As soon as I walked in and looked at the selection, I already knew this was not going to be a good one, but I decided to give it a try anyway. It is a small shop and a little shopping center so you may have some difficulty with parking. I went on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't very busy. I was greeted immediately and each of the available doughnuts are on display in the front case. The consistency was more bread like so it wouldn't necessarily qualify as a yeast or a cake doughnut. I took a bite of each and that was the end. If you are a true donut fan, you may be disappointed like I was.
