I always love coming here! Not only is a coffee great, but the ambience is unbeatable, and the owner is truly the sweetest . Their lattes are delicious and definitely give a try to their special "science" menu if you are into being surprised ! The croissants are not the best I've had in town, it would definitely be nice if they offer some salty items on the menu, but I understand that their focus is coffee. read more

Paper Plane Coffee - Coffee Roasteries Near Me - Montclair, New Jersey

Paper Plane Coffee is located in Upper Montclair. Seating here is similar to a plane but being popular all were taken. Raj often comes here and today had a different coffee - the Paper Plane Tonic consisting of Orange, Tonic and Espresso. He enjoyed it a lot. I had the iced Nam-Dam which consisted of a cold brew with cardamom and sweetened condensed milk. It was delicious and I could have had two! We got high stools and sat by the front window. This cafe is Columbian-American with beans from Columbia. In the refrigerator, I found to my surprise Spēka, the chocolate covered cottage cheese bar in assorted flavors that I had sampled at the Restaurant Show and has been difficult to find in the Big Apple. I bought four in lemon and gave one to Raj to try. The only drawback to this cafe are the hours whereby they close at 6 pm all week. read more

Great coffee / iced tea and ambience. Parking in the area isn't too bad either! Staff was friendly and they were so packed, the line was practically out the door! I loved the vibes.. they have plenty of options on the drink menu and some pastries. They also have a good amount of seating as well. I would absolutely stop back in and recommend this spot - people love it and I totally get it! They also have a back area for pick up, which is awesome! Cheers! read more

Amazing coffee and vibes. They were pretty crowded when I popped in on a random weekday at 11, and I can absolutely see why. The decor is charming and thoughtful and the airplane seats are such a fun touch. Drink selection is massive and way above and beyond the classics. The iced mint eastwood was really tasty and so photogenic. Pro-tip is to take the photo before you swirl it up! They also sell merch and you can even buy a jug of coffee to take home, which I probably should have done. Next time! read more

Cute!!! As a lover of a cozy, cool cafe (or really just a great cafe in general) I was smitten the second I walked in. It's not only covered in paper planes along the walls, but once you walk to the back, they have airplane style seating (along with some traditional tables). As cute as it is, it makes it super ideal for parties of 1 or 2, otherwise I don't know if you'd find a table insdie. It was 11sh on a Friday, and the place was buzzing with folks on computers, readers, etc. - always the sign of a good coffee shop. I was warned beforehand by someone that loves this cafe and goes very often that the menu is kooky in the best way. As a chronic oat latte girlie, I couldn't resist one of their creations from the "science" portion of the menu and got the Butterbroo hot. The barista was super kind and, when I questioned how sweet it was, let me know it's pretty sweet but she can adjust that however much I'd like. A few minutes later, I was sipping on a delicious, hot, not too sweet, latte. If you are someone that doesn't need the craziest drink, but want to try something new, the Butterbroo was a good one! I was meeting a friend and managed to we snag some of the stools at the window and got to working (chatting). Coffee was great, vibes were perfect. I wish I lived closer because this is a pretty great little local cafe. read more

I love trying local cafes and paper plane did not disappoint! I had a matcha with lavender milk and maple syrup it was delicious and gone within five? Ten? Minutes maybe. I also tried the culto di brownie and it was absolutely delicious! I loved how clean the ingredients were. Service was ok. It was our first time there and the person who took my order seemed to be in a rush to take my order. Love the laid back ambience and those seats that resemble a plane?! LOVE it. I hope to be back to get the whole Paper Plane Coffee experience one day despite feeling rushed to order. read more

The travel nerd in me loved the flight aesthetic. Not sure if they had someone working from another catering company but a sales rep gave out free protein desserts which paired well with our chai lattes read more

They expanded their shop and it was still full of people enjoying some creative & tasty coffees. They do pour overs presented beautifully if you enjoy it there in which case you don't need to use a disposable cup. And if you're lucky enough to have the owner taking your order, she can help you move beyond the usual coffees to some of their especially interesting ones after asking a few pointed questions. Since I was a chocolate lover she recommended the Mayan for me. She also helped our other guest pick the best pour over for her. And the Matcha latte was very rich we could add more filtered hot water on hand to freshen it up. (Appreciate the filtered cold water too.) Even my my latte design lasted till the bottom of the cup; i'll post the midway photo Everything has a feeling of being lovingly and generously made with a women owned touch. It's long past the season to shop local. Get your coffee here! read more

Always buzzing w ppl in & out, Also nice to sit outside on a beautiful day. I made a mistake,, this coffee shop is not affiliated with the one in Ridgewood. However,, this doesn't change my rating. read more

I finally made it to the Paper Plane Cafe and it was enjoyable....and unique. The cafe has a very cool section, where customers could sit as if they were sitting on a plane. Of course, these seats are always occupied, but if you're patient, you'll have your chance to enjoy it and take your Instagram pics. I ordered a Mocha Latte and it was very good. I enjoy when coffee doesn't need to cool down for an hour and this one was perfect. I also enjoyed the hint of cinnamon, as well. I also spoke to the owner. He mentioned how the cafe will be expanding and showed me the upcoming new area. I look forward to returning and enjoying the new space. If you're a gamer, the cafe also has a Super Nintendo station to help with your relaxation time. I commend the Paper Plane Coffee Co. for their ingenuity with the theme of this cafe and is highly recommended. read more

This is the cutest cafe with the most amazing airplane-inspired seating concept!! I ordered their hot YuenYueng (oolong tea, cold brew, and sweetened condensed milk). I really tasted every ingredient and was pleasantly surprised with how well they tasted together. I was torn between a few things on their menu though because everything they offer sounds delicious! Service was really quick but friendly. Parking was easy because I went on a Sunday afternoon, but I'd imagine it may be difficult to find street parking here depending on when you go. read more

I'll join the other Yelpers to say that Paper Plane has something special going on. Their beans are pretty strong in a good way- I got their half decaf iced Mayan latte and I am feeling the effects hours later! Strong and slightly on the sweeter side but still a great cup. Interior is modern and airplane themed on one side. They have an array of drinks to choose from - teas to pour overs to lattes and the classic drinks. Menu is a great read- they have descriptions of their beans. Service was good, the baristas had friendlier smiles although harried. A steady stream of customers is always a good sign! Street parking, parking garages, credit cards and Apple Pay, cash. read more

Came in for an iced matcha latte with almond milk which I was excited for given all the great reviews on this place! However, it was pretty milky and I really couldn't taste the matcha. Seems like they are more known for their coffee than their matcha. Baristas were slow and chit chatting the whole time so waited awhile for the matcha. I will say the decor was super cute and would be a nice spot to work from. read more

I've seen videos of this place on social media so I decided to finally check it out. It has a very cute theme and it simulates the feeling of being at an airport. I got an ice latte and an almond croissant. The ice latte was good and I loved how big my croissant was. The menu also had a lot of cool non caffeinated drinks available which i thought was cool. I came to get some work done since I heard they had free wifi and plenty of wifi. The space is kind of small. It gives me the impression that its more take out rather than dine in. I sat at the area with the faux windows seats and airplane like seats. The seats were comfortable but the table is kind of tiny so you can't have too many items. Plus there are only 6 of those seats and 3 regular tables with regular chairs so once those are taken, there isn't anywhere else to sit so keep that in mind. There is a unisex restroom with really nice decor. They had a painting in there that I loved (see photo). There is only street metered parking so be aware of that. read more

The best in town. Butter broo is amazing and Jonathan the owner is a wonderful human being.

Whenever we are in the Montclair area in the morning time, we always make a point to stop by Paper Plane Coffee. With their changing menus and unique drinks, we are never disappointed with the selection of drinks and being forced to try something new here. The ambiance here is so fun- it's been crowded both times we've been (Sunday mornings) but so worth the wait. Service is friendly and fast which is a huge plus. Will recommend this coffee shop over and over, and they just announced they're opening an even larger location in Maplewood! read more

I know this coffee shop is award winning, but it is always reassuring to taste the coffee for yourself and agree with the hype. I got the milo-spresso and my husband got the Mayan iced. Both were incredible. The interior is so incredible and the playlist was a vibe. It was definitely crowded for a sunny weekend day, as expected, but the staff had our drinks prepped quickly after ordering. Looking forward to returning. read more

Love the concept. It looks like a plane with coffee from all over the world. Service is pretty good. Only thing was that's the place is off the main strip and takes a while to get to (especially if you are walking). There is no parking nearby. Parking actually seems to be a challenge. The pastries look really good (although I am not supposed to eat them due to gluten free diet). No gluten free options. Nice vibe. read more

I visited this place on a local friend's recommendation the week before Halloween (see the seasonal decor out front!). It was very busy with about a 10 min wait to order and then another 10-15 min to get drinks, but the interior is quirky and pleasing and I was talking with my friends so I didn't mind the wait. I got an iced sparkling apple cider espresso thing, which was delicious and refreshing. Their drink menu changes regularly and is delightfully inventive! They offer basic pastries from a local bakery which they will warm up for you. As a barista of 10 years, I respect their commitment to making things correctly and educating their staff and customer base. This is probably not the coffeeshop to work at but it's a great spot to hang out with friends and chat. read more

Ordered: 16oz Iced Mayan Latte (~$6): cocoa, cayenne cinnamon, brown sugar, espresso, and oat milk (+75¢) Aya's take: Off the bat, I can say Paper Plane Coffee has such a fun, unique decor from the airplane seats to the split-flap display to the art. Their menu was a bit confusing to me as they don't have "standard" drinks or syrups but offer many seasonal or monthly drink specials. The Iced Mayan Latte was creamy, lightly spiced from the Mexican chocolate, and the espresso was quite bright. There's a lot of "science" behind their drinks unlike a typical coffee shop which I can appreciate and they roast all of their speciality coffee in-house! It was a good try; I would come back and try their more unique offerings! read more

DEFINITELY coming again. I visited Montclair for the first time recently, and my friend had spoken very highly of this cafe, so I made sure to check it out during my trip. First, the interior was SO cute. I really appreciated how there were different sections in the cafe (the famous plane section, tables for groups, and a quiet corner counter on the other side), and the space was very open and welcoming. Second, the barista was so friendly and helpful. She recommended the Nam-Dam drink, and it was soo yummy. Will definitely try again (along w/ many of their other specialty drinks). Update: Came here for second time w/ my boyfriend, and both our drinks were amazing. We got the butterbroo and Mayan latte. read more
