"Elitist Coffee is such a cozy spot in South Orange. It’s Black and Mother-Daughter owned, and a small business elevating the coffee lover’s experience. The staff is always warm and welcoming, and the vibe inside just makes you want to relax and stay awhile. The food is fresh and delicious, and I don’t mind paying a little extra because the quality is truly there. And their coffee? Incredible — they roast and brew it themselves, and you can taste the difference. Highly recommend! This place is for those of us who appreciate a great atmosphere and quality experience."

"Hubby and I went. We Love the vibe, ambience. Spacious, comfy. Had the turkey bacon, muenster cheese and egg on a large fresh croissant and a cuban coffee with oat milk. DELICIOUS!! Will be back with my girlfriends!!"

"Very nice place. Staff was friendly and Cuban latte was delicious. Next time I’ll have lunch, the menu looked good. They appear to have the same political views as I. Support immigrants. I’ll go back the next time I’m there. Carry cash; it’s a $10 minimum for credit/debit cards. Black and women own this place. I’ll definitely be back when I’m up north!"

"The place looks cute, but the vibe is totally off, or it was the day my husband and I came in with our toddler, who proceeded to smile at the barista, who literally just stared. I ordered an iced coffee from the said barista who couldn’t have been more cold, as were their co-workers, without a thank you or greeting or even a smile. The coffee was watered down and tasteless and also over 7 dollars. Next time, please have a welcoming attitude towards patrons, and a well-behaved friendly toddler shouldn’t be greeted with bad vibes."

"Beautiful place. Friendly staff. Sorry to say nothing beyond that would bring me back. The coffee was ok not worth the price. Our sandwiches were ok. Way too much pepper on the food and it seems like that was all it was seasoned with. Maybe try the pastries if you stop in. They looked really good."
