On Bloomfield Ave there's a tiny coffee house in a small house. This little place takes coffee…read moreseriously. They have seasonal coffee offerings, pastries, soft drinks and a few small bistro tables inside and lots of dog parents sipping coffee outside with their pups. I was fortunate to grab a table inside. I got a cold brew and it was very good; grassy and bright tasting. Clearly the place values coffee. Be forewarned, Jola is pretty a pretty busy place. They have about 4 parking spots in the back (all taken) and there's a shopping complex next door. I parked in the shopping complex because there wasn't a sign warning coffee customers not to park there. If you're looking for a Starbucks alternative in Caldwell, this is the place. You can order ahead.

This place is a true hidden gem. It's tucked behind a tiny plaza, and if you didn't know it was…read morethere, you'd drive right past it, which would be a personal loss, honestly. From the moment you step into the enclosed entrance, the vibe is calm, cozy, and immediately promising. You can tell it's designed for outdoor seating when the weather's nice, but even during the colder months, it holds up. The menu has a solid selection with seasonal drinks mixed in, so there's always something new to try instead of defaulting to the same order every time. Shoutout to the merch by the register because it's genuinely funny and dangerously tempting. I showed restraint. Barely. The seating area is where this place really shines. There are plenty of options, great natural light streaming in through the windows, and just the right amount of quiet. It's perfect for getting work done, catching up with a friend, or simply sitting there enjoying the peace like the responsible adult you pretend to be. All around, a great spot with an easy, welcoming vibe. Already looking forward to coming back, especially when it's warm enough to see what the outdoor seating is all about.

I came here on a Wednesday afternoon and ordered the Sandy - chai with maple spice foam and I got it hot. Boy, did this hit the spot! I also got a chickpea blonde which was sensational. I was so pleased with both that I plan on becoming a regular. The price was $15 with tip for both which seems to be the standard rate for things nowadays. They have a nice drink menu with a decent selection. The store has a nice selection of stickers, cards, and other adorable take homes. I will be back here and highly recommend!

The layout is designed in a way that keeps the line easily organized, something I can appreciate. If you've read any of my former reviews, you'll know I despise a disorganized setup for lines. Their menu has a variety of specialty drinks to choose from, and I couldn't resist getting an iced blueberry pancake latte. We received our drinks quickly after placing our order, so shout out to the staff. We both really liked the coffee base itself and knew we'd be coming back. The décor is cool and I loved the vibe; it has a rustic feel that made the space feel very welcoming. We also met the super chill owner briefly and he let us know there was a sitting area in the back with some art on the wall. There is also ample parking to the side of where the shop is located, always a plus.

I'll sometimes stop here before or after I teach a yoga class. Stopped here on a Sunday morning…read morejust before 9:00 and there were quite a few people here already. This is a great spot for meeting up and catching up. There are lots of seating options and it feels spacious. When it's warm, they have outdoor seating. I elected for a seat near the window and was very content there. Service is always good here! I always get the same thing, a chai latte with oat milk and it never disappoints. They had some fall options which were very tempting. I wanted to get a baked good, but nothing looked that appealing. I can also see this being a good place for a coffee date as it's lively but not loud.

I ordered a large latte with cinnamon, a croissant for chocolate chip cookies and a heated cinnamon roll. All this took 20 minutes to get. The staff seemed to be overwhelmed by the amount of people and took very long time to fulfill the order. Which was unfortunate because the coffee is actually pretty good, and it looks like they have a lot of events at this space that would be fun to come back to. Like a poetry open Mike game nights art painting. But the care in service leaves a lot to be desired. The cinnamon roll was soft and tasty and not overly sweet, which I appreciated and the chocolate chip cookies were also very good. the croissant was smashed inside the take away container as an afterthought and not with any care. This is something that I believe warrants attention by Management to train the staff. And waited essentially 25 minutes after ordering for

While the coffee was brewing, he was telling me about the espresso beans that they use. Legit, Italian espresso beans that were of high quality. The space is cute, serving not only great coffee--that's reasonably priced, btw-- but also fan faves like mochi donuts and other, Korean snack foods. There's good space inside so you can sit and enjoy your coffee and treats. It's just overall a nice, welcoming, and quality neighborhood cafe. What's not to love about?

This place was adorable and clean, with beautiful decoration and plenty of seating. I was so excited to see the assortment of Korean snacks in the shelf and in the fridge, as well as the variety of dishes and drinks. We were there for dessert, so we got affogato and mochi donuts, which were very yummy. I also got the white chocolate macadamia nut latte which was also delicious and made with great quality coffee. We did not get lunch, but we saw ramen and tteokbokki on the menu and would love to come back again to try it. Everything was so affordable too. But most of all, what made the experience SO amazing was the owner and the employee whom I believe was his son (?). He was SO kind and helpful, and insisted on providing many snacks as we sat and chatted, and offering a variety of samples. He opened the cafe in his retirement and clearly poured so much love into it. He was the LOVELY person and made us feel extremely welcome. 10/10 experience.
