What People Are Saying
from Google"Amazing service, immaculate vibe, good tasting coffee, and definitely some of the more fresh baked goods I’ve seen at cafes. I always appreciate a coffee shop that has substitutes like sugar free flavors and almond/oat milk. For me it’s just a matter of making healthier choices when I can, but for others it could be a must (i.e. allergies, lactose intolerance, diabetes). Only one sugar free flavor (vanilla), but that’s good enough. I also had a cranberry raisin scone, warmed up. Very fresh and yummy. Service was also amazing! They’ve got a very cute back area and a big cozy couch. They also have WiFi, outlets, and a number of tables you could work from with a laptop if needed."
"My son and I visited Cafe Peanut on a Sunday morning for breakfast and were immediately enthralled by the friendly staff (the owner) and the welcoming, warm decor and atmosphere of this cozy cafe. We were offered to sample some delicious pound cake and had a hard time deciding between all of the delicious breakfast options. My son ordered the Sunny Side Up Avocado Mash and was very satisfied with his choice. I ordered The Original bagel, and it was delicious as well. Can't wait to stop by again next time we're in town!"
"This place is so adorable!! Places to sit and relax, WiFi, and kind folks everywhere. Barista man was so sweet :)"
"Directly across from Hudson County Superior Court. Of the selections across front the court house - quickest caffeine punch with all the various coffees - for a quick lunch sit down or wait for a variety of sandwiches and food for those on the run but doesn't need it want fast food. Pretty place with all the decorations so if you want that break you have it. On trial for a week and by day 2 they knew my name and thanked me for busing my own table. If you want true smiles from great food - try a cherry danish - this is not a cheap one with filling but great cherries - or my colleagues recommend the lemon cake. Honestly made a stressful week better - a hidden gem."
"I was passing by for Juror duty out front but I arrived too early and this place was a nice stop along the way. I actually really liked this place. I had an espresso (2 shots) and a marble cake. The barista was very nice and a fun person. I'd love to come back here if I lived nearby lol."
