    This spot is a whole vibe! The decor is beautiful, the atmosphere is cozy yet upbeat, and the hip hop playlist ties it all together perfectly. The coffee menu is stacked--every drink feels like an experience. I'm currently working my way around it, and so far my top pick is Rapper's Delight--smooth, flavorful, and hands-down amazing. My man's favorite is Tira-Flow, and I've been loving Nutty Beats too. The pastries are just as impressive as the drinks--the tres leches cake is absolute fire (worth coming back just for that), and the beignets are super tasty. Everything feels fresh, creative, and thoughtfully made. If you're into good coffee, great pastries, and an atmosphere that makes you want to hang out for hours, this place is it. Oh, and the staff are so friendly and beautiful young ladies!

    The BEST coffee shop! Such a fun atmosphere, friendly employees, and delicious food and drinks. I love sitting at the windows. I've loved everything I have ordered.

    I came into Roast & Cream and I ordered an iced coffee with milk and a nano sandwich. The interior design and aesthetic of the coffee shop is so cute. It's clean and has a warm inviting atmosphere. The service was great. The guy at the front counter was friendly and polite. Nice new Union city establishment that was added I believe not too long ago. I noticed this location from walking by and saved this spot to my phone as a place to come and check out. My coffee tasted incredible and the sandwich was delicious too. The sandwich tasted fresh and I enjoyed the crispy bread. I was so happy I came in and checked out this coffee shop. 10/10 coffee shop recommendation.

    I enjoyed this place so much I came here twice during my weekend trip in the area. Trendy vibes with a cool hip-hop playlist in a cozy area with hip-hop memorabilia on the walls. The signature drinks have fun names and flavor combinations. I tried the Rappers Delight (pistachio latte with brown sugar foam) and the (Dirty Cha Cha (iced chai latte with a double shot of espresso). I also had their cortadito which was perfectly balanced--not too sweet or too bitter. Lots of food options too. I tried their guava danish and Dubai chocolate cake which I enjoyed. All the food on their menu looks great and I would love to try more. The staff are very friendly and service was quick. I will definitely return if I visit the Union City area again!

    Dirty Matcha

    So many coffee spots, so little time! I settled on Roast & Cream on the walk home in Union City, and I'm currently going through a Dirty Matcha phase... so I was surprised to see that they had a Dirty Chai option but not Matcha, so I had to ask for it. Their beans? From Intelligentsia coffee, so it's local to a SoCal native. Regardless, I was in the mood for one, and I had to get it! Service was amazing despite the initial confusion (after all, it was a drink not on their official menu). Taste? Amazing, as would be expected of a Dirty Matcha. The cost was a bit on the higher end, but did it to quench the desire. A+

    Planning my next visit! Visited this location with two of my friends ( my one friend made reservations). This location was pretty cool because it paid homage to hip hop. From the art on the walls and music playing, this location is unique. The menu items all seem so tasty, I loved the prices and the variety from the meals, drinks and even desserts!!! The menu items make me want to come back and explore more of the menu. Service was quick and easy! Staff friendly and tentative. There is street parking available! Can't wait to come back again thank you!

    I love the lattes here! The flavor combos are super unique and seriously fire. Definitely a reason to come back. That said, I tried the Nano sandwich and... it was kind of a letdown. I ordered it without lettuce and tomato, but it ended up super dry...no sign of the garlic bread or sauce that's supposed to come with it (or at least I didn't taste or see any). So far, the food hasn't impressed me, but the lattes are keeping this place on my radar.

    Loaded Loaded Hash Browns - order of 3
    Nessa S.

    Finally went and was blown away by the flavor, atmosphere and hospitality! Family friendly establishment to teach the youngins what real music sounds like in a "coffee shop". With a variety of coffee flavors and reusable cups?! I was sold! The loaded hash browns were crisp and cooked to perfection! Would recommend over and over again!

    Empanada
    Ipsita D.

    3.5 stars. Ordered from here recently via DoorDash. The Peaches & Cream drink was good. The empanadas (got beef, chicken, and spinach & cheese) were not bad but the outer shells overly fried. The Loaded Hash Browns were very greasy/too fried. Yuca Rellena was decent. The ODB Sandwich was all right but I don't think I would order it again. Overall the drink was good and I would definitely try other drinks, but I wasnt a big fan of the food I've tried so far (willing to try other dishes in the future though)!

    Iced Purple Reign (~$6)
    Aya E.

    Ordered: Iced Purple Reign (~$6): vanilla latte and lavender foam, with oat milk French Toast (~$12): topped with strawberries, blueberries, powdered sugar, and syrup on the side Mini Chicken & Waffles (~$13): with syrup on the side Aya's take: As a hip-hop & coffee lover, I was super excited to see that Roast & Cream had opened up in the neighborhood! Off the bat, you can see a lot of hip-hop/rap inspired decor, albums, and artwork on the walls. They were also playing all the jams. The Iced Purple Reign was a 5/5. Perfectly made. The vanilla latte was sweet, creamy, and light and the lavender foam took it to the next level. The lavender used was real and there was that floral taste in every sip of the cold foam. So good! Both dishes we got were good but nothing out of the ordinary. I liked the chicken from the Mini Chicken & Waffles, but the waffles were a bit soggy and just didn't seem fresh. On the other hand, the French Toast tasted a lot better but was slightly burned around the edges. The highlight for me was definitely the Iced Purple Reign. Their coffee menu is so creative; I can't wait to come back and try other drinks. Highly recommend checking them out and hope they do well here!

    Really cool coffee shop in Union City! I stopped by for a late lunch and was instantly greeted by a very sweet cashier. She handed me a menu and was patient while I looked through all the options. I decided on a matcha drink with coconut water and their version of a Cuban. I really loved the sandwich it was sweet savory and delicious. Looking forward to coming back.

    The plate my food was on smelled of lingering soap. Matcha with regular milk tasted more like milk. Lost my appetite

    A new and cute little cafe in union city, nj! I came in before picking up my dog from daycare, and I was excited for see the many drinks with foam on top. We ordered three drinks and all of them had the right amount of sweetness to them. The cashier lady was super sweet and complimented my photo of the drinks! I highly recommend the peaches & cream drink, it's the perfect sweet drink for the day. Definitely give this cafe a try!

    Way too expensive for the amount of food you get. The cappucino was good but also very expensive.

    Heard so much about their cinnamon rolls!! So glad I finally got the opportunity to try them. I…read morewaited on line for approx 20 mins. I got the original cinnamon roll and the April special, which was carrot cake. Also got a strawberry shortcake matcha. The rolls are big! Worth the price and wait in my opinion. I preferred the original over the carrot cake. The carrot cake roll had some big pieces of carrot lol a bit unexpected because I assumed the carrots would be a bit more finely grated. but not bad! the carrot taste is just a lot more prominent. strawberry shortcake matcha was good, but I think the cinnamon rolls are the real star here. There's a good amount of seating. Staff is very kind. Def want to come back to try the other special cinnamon roll flavors in the coming months!

    Stopped by to get some coffee to-go and loved the place!…read more Inside was actually spacious and really looked neat. I tried their Banana Pancake latte special and it was delicious! We also got just plain oatmilk latte and brewed coffee as well as some cookies (smores, confetti) and all were pretty good! not to mention the latte arts were perfect and service was friendly! Loved that they have a separate space for little kids to play (which you pay $7 for). Im sure the parents appreciate this - having a place for coffee while also letting smaller kids enjoy. They have babycinno too! Parking can be hard as its street parking only but there are some garages available if you dont mind walking a bit. Would love to return someday for a sit-down experience.

    Looking for a coffee spot around Hoboken, this place popped up on my Yelp app. It was a yes for me…read moreimmediately when I saw the gorgeous latte artwork. We were greeted warmly by whom I assume is the owner. Since I love pistachio, it was a no brainer for me. As one of my companions is trying to decide, I mumbled under my breath..."the Rose latte is really beautiful." He sighs and says to the barista...okay, I'll have the Rose latte, I'll let her have her picture. I tell the barista that I want it in one of those pretty cup and saucers. I was giddy as a little girl when I got the lattes. Soooo eye-pleasingly beautiful. Most of the Rose latte pics on Yelp has the leaf in white, mine was PINK. I am not a fan of any drinks that taste like a rose. Curious I did take a sip and I was wowed. The rose flavor was very subtle in a wonderful way with the perfect balance of the coffee. I loved my pistachio but decided to switch the rose latte with my companion. It was the best rose lattes I have ever had. They also have homemade treats. Their pistachio baklava is PERFECTION, not too overly sweet. I could eat a dozen of these in one sitting. Limited indoor seating with only 2 tables outside.

    Still a fan! They put a lot of effort into their lattes. We've been on a pistachio latte kick and…read morehave been testing them at different coffee spots and cafe vista makes a solid pistachio latte... they even put real pistachios in the latte art!
