    I LOVE LOVE LOVE this cafe.
    They make the best vegan breakfast croissants and wraps in town. The burgers are outstanding,, they have a few options. The village burger and the spicy burger are my top.
    Love their smoothies and the cakes are in sanely delicious.

    Service is quick and friendly.

    Thank you Tea NJ.

    This "buisness" is clearly paying for their reviews as there is no way a place could be rated this highly while being unable to perform the most basic of practices. Such as answering their phone, being able to take orders, understanding their own menu items (I ordered a coffee and was told they were out of an item that shouldn't even be included in that drink - learn your menu?), having change in the register and offering take out service in a timely manner. To be honest, this seems like a front and not an actual buisness but I suppose that's neither here nor there.

    They were out of half their menu, which is surprising for a Saturday but okay maybe everything is so awesome you sell out. Everything is not awesome. 4 customers walked out in the timespan of us being there. Waiting. None of our order was prepared correctly, and it took over an hour to get 2 coffees and 2 sandwiches. Back to being sold out of items..we were allowed to order and only told they were out of half of what we ordered when our food was ready instead of right away so we could have chosen something else. Only after not having a few bucks as change and sending my husband to go ask for change outside AS WELL AS making us wait 45 minutes in an empty store did they tell us that half our order wouldn't be there. After all that, both orders were incorrect. The "chorizo" and "bacon" in my sandwich were rock hard, and the tofu had zero taste. I only actually tasted a small bite of the tofu and my husband picked at the rest, since they included tomatoes and I'm not able to eat them. Complete waste of time and money, I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. I imagine this "buisness" will soon be something else.

    First off let me just say no food is worth the kind of experience I just had. When I called at about 10am on a Saturday  because i wanted to confirm that grubhub says no delivery till 12 they said they're too busy & that i could come pick up. I call at 12 & they dont answer. I drive over and there are literally  3 people sitting in there. Maybe the rush just ended, so i go to order & the register person tells me that they're out of 14 items!! I adjust my orders to fit the 86ed items and go to pay...except they dont have change for a 50...i got over $20 of food mind you...i go outside and walk door to door till the 3rd place someone in there gives me change...i go back to pay and there are now 5 people in line so i wait till a few order and then ask cashier if she's waiting to put the order till i pay to which she says yes. I ask if i can pay before the next person orders (that person is unhappy about it too and ended up leaving without ordering by the way) I give $30 now and cashier says still no change!!! I ask if the place accepts cash & they say yeah...so they end up going outside to get change....i realize many people use cards or phone pays but what kind of place doesn't have less than $10 change.

    Anyways so i wait over 30 MINUTES for my food!!! In that 30 minutes only 3 people place orders. In that time also someone threatens to leave before getting their drink because they can't wait anymore.
    Once my food comes out it takes another 5-8 minutes for them to make my 2 drinks. All i wanted was to try a few vegan breakfast sandwiches & got an ordeal for a lifetime.

    Sorry this is all sounds dramatic but I just can't tolerate blatant disregard for basic costumer service. I have no clue whats going on here but clearly never coming back,  what a terrible experience of inexperience.

    3.5 stars, first time here.  
    Unique decor, paintings on the wall for sale.  
    Furniture a little old.  Service was ok.
    Food was good to great, but not excellent.
    For the price it was worth it.  Would recommend for vegetarians.

    I've eat here a few times. This 4th time I ordered but this time I got delivery. Other than grubhub taking 2+ hrs to deliver food, the food was great. Very tasty. One star taken off for the vanilla cake which was bitter.  I recommend dining in- you won't be disappointed. The began beast burger was filling and vegan chorizo Tastes Smokey and spicy.  
    I wish a tad bit more food came with the order (minus a star for that). You won't have any leftovers.
