What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"The café has a distinct Moroccan charm. The coffee and cappuccino were delicious, and the Moroccan cookies were amazing—my favorite was the almond one. I loved the round mosaic tables, the beautiful paintings, and the large decorative vases—such thoughtful details. Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, and lovely vibes make it a perfect spot to relax. We’ll definitely be coming back to try more!"
"Fantastic community cafe with Moroccan inspired food. Great place to grab a delicious sandwich or more substantive meal for lunch or breakfast, plus pastries for any time of day. They still don’t allow laptops, to encourage conversation, which I think works well. It was packed when we went, but we’re still able to get a seat outside without much effort. I highly recommend trying out any of their platters or the New York Combo. Both were incredible! Can’t wait to come back soon."
"Absolutely loved this place! It’s so cozy and offers a huge selection of food, drinks, and desserts. Everything is also halal!! We tried the chicken avocado sandwich, the New York combo sandwich, the iced strawberry matcha latte, and the fiber boost smoothie, everything was delicious!"
"I live in Middletown, and I stopped by this café to spend about 30 minutes on my laptop to finish a project. I was told that laptops are not allowed at all and that I had to close my computer immediately. I was also warned that this is a “strict rule.” This rule makes no logical sense. A phone is also an electronic device. If laptops are banned, then phones should be banned as well. Otherwise, the policy is completely inconsistent and unreasonable. Customers should not be told how or with which device they are allowed to spend their time, especially when they are quiet, respectful, and not bothering anyone. I was not taking calls, not watching videos, and not disturbing the space in any way. This feels like a management problem, not a customer problem. The manager seriously needs to reconsider these policies, because this kind of attitude pushes people away rather than welcoming them. Very disappointing experience."
"Great food and coffee. The shakshuka is tasty, especially with the beef and lamb sausage and cheese. No working allowed here, which means no laptops or tablets, even though most people were on their phones."
"This cozy cafe has a diverse menu from savory to sweet products with something for everyone. I've been obsessed with the chicken avocado sandwich because..."
