    Cute place. I walked in and I went behind the counter lol. The lady was hilarious. Their bagels had a lovely crunch to it soft in the inside. The chicken noodle helped with a cold. I love it. Thank you!

    Best experience ever!! I would give them 10 stars if I could!!! Everything is homemade and delicious! We were lucky enough to meet Jack and Mary Anne during our MLK Jr. Monday Brunch!! They couldn't have been nicer!! I highly recommend this place to everyone! Our food was delicious and the service was fantastic and we had a great time, and I will definitely come back here again in a heartbeat!!

    Amazing food amazing service. James was an amazing server very friendly. The food came out pretty fast and tasted amazing. It has bar tops and tables to sit at. Whole bill with tip was 40$ which was very reasonable.

    I love exploring cafes to work/study from! Whisk It All is a local family-owned bakery and cafe…read more It's easy to miss since it's on a quiet residential street in Glen Ridge. There's free street parking right up front. I've been here twice and both visits were positive experiences. The cafe is small, but cozy. The greenery and natural lighting make it a welcoming space to meet up with a friend over coffee and pastries or to study. There's a few tables, a couch, and stool seating facing the window. There's also free wifi and outlets. The tables are on the smaller side and the cafe isn't that big, so it's probably not best for large groups. Their menu is simple and a bit limited. Honestly... I prefer it that way! They have your core espresso drinks and a few paninis and croissant sandwiches. They bake their own pastries fresh on the premises. I recommend trying their cookies - they are huge, soft, and chewy! They also specialize in custom cakes for special occasions. Everything is reasonably priced. Baristas are sweet and efficient. They make some tasty iced lattes! The espresso is strong, but not too bitter. It has just the right balance of coffee and milk. I recently tried the Ham Solo sandwich ($10) which included scrambled egg, ham, cheddar, and avocado on a croissant with a side of chips. It wasn't bad, but I wouldn't order it again. The egg was dry and the ham and cheese tasted like those cheap, pre-sliced ones from grocery stores. If I lived closer, I could see myself stopping by more often. Check them out if you're in the area!

The barista was working by herself but handling business and she made my coffee perfectly, I'd stop back in for a coffee or a pastry since it's close to my nail shop.

    One word... WOW. The…read moreCorner in Upper Montclair has that rare mom-and-pop feel that immediately makes you feel welcome. It's cozy, genuine, and the kind of place where you can tell there's a lot of love going into what comes out of the kitchen. And speaking of that kitchen--you can see it from pretty much every seat in the house. Watching several cooks navigate what looks like an incredibly tiny space is almost mesmerizing. Somehow, they move around each other seamlessly, and the best part? The food comes out FAST. My wife went with the hummus, and it was creamy, flavorful, and delicious. But the surprise star on the side was the salted dried kale chip--such a simple little addition, but ridiculously good. Then came my pancakes. Out of this world. Small in diameter, but super thick, with a beautifully crispy exterior giving way to an interior that was fluffy, light, and airy. I've tried making this style of pancake at home countless times, and I still have absolutely no idea how to get that texture. The syrup and berries were the perfect finishing touches. Everything just worked. I've made and had soooo many pancakes in my life, and this is easily top 3 best. The Corner is the kind of place that makes you start planning your next visit before you've even left. I'll be dreaming about getting back to this Corner.

Unfortunately, something about it didn't sit right with my stomach, and the cheese tasted a little off to me. I also ordered a chai latte, but it was pretty plain. It mostly tasted like tea and milk rather than the spiced, flavorful chai I was expecting. Maybe the experience would have been different dining in, so I'd be open to trying them again and ordering something else next time.

    Best breakfast sandwich I've had. Hands down…read more Stopped by for a quick bite and ordered the pesto egg sammi along with a dirty iced chai. Sandwich was AMAZING. Perfectly cooked soft scrambled eggy goodness and incredible balance of flavor and texture. My fave kind of meal is when each ingredient has a purpose. Bun was toasty and still chewy and soft. Dirty chai was also yummy, not the sweet chai and not too strong of a spice taste. Don't walk- RUN. Space is adorable with plenty of seating. They have some high chairs for the kiddos too. Bright cherry and friendly staff. They said had a bunch of baked goods in addition to the menu with tons of options.

    Service was spectacular I must have walked in as soon as they opened because I was the first person…read morein there. I've been in the area a lot more lately and decided it was time to try out another cafe. After looking through the glowing reviews, I thought this was a great spot. The decor was very plush and inviting. I tried their Spanish latte which wasn't as sweet as I'm used to but it still got the job done. I also had their burrata tomato toast with pesto and I've had better but still tasted delicious. I think it was missing a little olive oil or onion to bring it together. Overall would return for the service alone to get some work done and try their matcha.
