A slice of Boca Raton in Trenton New Jersey…read more The Biscoff Cookie Latte was a treat. Service was impeccable and the grounds were beautiful.

3 and 3/4 stars…read more Someone said a "slice of Boca"? No, not quite. (Although "not Boca" isn't necessarily a bad thing.) However you look at it, the comparison is inflated. The latte was good (not delicious), but a tad watery with a fullness of flavor missing. It was a rainy Saturday afternoon and the place was busy, but not overwhelming so. Tables were full, but it was only a short wait for me to place my simple order (by coffee shop standards) of a small, vanilla latte. However, once my order was taken (yes, the wait-server was pleasant) and I paid, I was left to figure it out. First time in and so I didn't know what the deal was: do I wait where I am? Pick up at a different counter? Ok...but where? Does someone call my drink out when it's ready (there's no put-your-name-on-a-cup thing -- which IS annoying, but apparently can be more handy than I've previously thought)? Is the order stated when the cup is placed down? The person who waited on me had vanished into a gaggle of chatting and giggling girls behind the counter, so I asked another customer. (FYI: you wait at the perpendicular counter to your left of the register.) No big deal, but it's one of those "little things" that separates the four stars from the five. I moved to the "wait" counter and observed a few drinks being placed down -- all beverages in similar cups -- and had to (again) ask someone else for help (i.e., which order was mine), as the barista who made my drink put it down and then disappeared into that gaggle of girls. (Also minor, but another separator of the three and three quarter stars from the four.) In short, the latte was good, but not the best. The service? Ok, but not the best. The ambiance? Again ok. Maybe because I've lived in SE Florida for more than 20 years, but it definitely does not have that true Boca feel. Nonetheless, given the options in the area, Hamilatte is a welcome attempt at something different, and definitely a preferred choice to Starbucks. I will return if I'm nearby, but I won't go out of my way (as I do for a truly 5-star establishment).

Decorated well for Christmas but a nice lounge area and a bar that overlooks main street (farnsworth) of Bordentown. The coffee was exceptional. I went for an americano.

The place sits like a warm thought at the corner of Farnsworth and Church, glowing with the small kindnesses that make life bearable. I ordered the RAF latte with chili honey. The barista looked at me the way a chemist might before adding the final, possibly dangerous ingredient. He asked how much heat I could handle. I told him to let it burn. He smiled the smile of someone who knows exactly what that means and drizzled with confidence. The drink was something so familiar yet completely new. Smooth, rich, and somehow gentle despite the fire. The chili honey bit like a memory of something you once loved and lost, but it soothed just as quickly. I was glad I ordered the small, which was not small at all. The cup sat in my hands like a minor planet. The interior is modest in space but large in spirit. A few stools face the street, offering a view of Bordentown's quiet choreography of pedestrians and parked cars. Inside, everything feels intentional and cared for. The staff moved with the calm competence of people who genuinely enjoy what they are doing. I had the sense that if I had stayed an hour or two longer, nobody would have hurried me along. The air smelled of espresso and butter, and the crepes being carried past me looked like edible happiness. Sweet, savory, folded with the precision of small miracles. I will be back to try them. I might even show up early again on purpose. Smachna Kawa is the kind of place that reminds you the world still knows how to nourish beautiful things in small corners.

When it comes to The Gingered Peach, I can only speak on their holiday orders for now. I came…read moreacross a post on social media about a magazine naming The Gingered Peach as one of the best bakeries in New Jersey. From there, I gave them a follow on social media and checked out their website. Sadly, the bakery is about an hour from where I live, but it's about 15-20 minutes from where I work. However, they usually close at 3 pm, which means I would be scrambling in right before they close or I may not make it at all. Bummer! Needless to say, I saw they do dessert orders for the holidays, so that was my golden opportunity! For Thanksgiving, I ordered a purple sweet potato pie and a banana pudding pie. I got to select the date that I'd be picking up my pies, which was on a day that I had to go to the office. During the week leading up to Thanksgiving, the bakery was closed for regular operations. They were only open for dessert pick ups. The pies were a hit! The banana pudding pie was everyone's favorite. Needless to say, for Christmas, a larger order was placed for banana pudding pie, salted honey pie, apple crumb pie, and mashed potato rolls. Now for Christmas, the bakery was open for regular operations and you had to pick up your pre-ordered desserts at their sister business, Melba Ice Creamery, around the corner. Because it was Christmas Eve and I already had a slew of sweets pre-ordered, I decided not to try to go to the bakery that day. Nevertheless, the goods were a hit again! The only downside is that the crust on the banana pudding pie was a little different the second time around, making it tougher to slice and get out of the pan. It was still tasty though! Would I return? Absolutely!

This location is somewhat small. Seating exists, but more in the way that folding chairs exist at a funeral luncheon. You can sit. You just can't linger without developing opinions about strangers transiting through. The parking lot outside feels like a free form social experiment. Cars were being parked in by other cars while still others idled along the curb as their drivers strolled inside for to go orders, seemingly oblivious to the chaos they left in their wake. In the thirty minutes I was there I witnessed two near misses at the drive thru exit and briefly wondered if Starbucks offered liability waivers with their rewards program. Inside things improved dramatically. I ordered my standard tall flat white, which is a drink Starbucks can usually deliver without adding enough sugar to cause diabetic shock or roasting the beans until they taste like charcoal and regret. I said I was staying and was rewarded with a proper ceramic mug. This small mercy felt important. The staff were exceedingly friendly and appeared to genuinely enjoy one another which gave the place good vibes. There was laughter. There was competence. No one looked trapped or defeated. No small feat in today's world. All in all this Starbucks achieves exactly what corporate sameness is aiming for. Predictable coffee. Pleasant people. A familiar room to get some work done. The only variable is the demolition derby taking place just beyond the doors. If they ever pave over that parking lot with common sense this place might earn another star.

They've an impressive range of flavors, and I try to always try a flavor that I've not had in a long time, however I need to have my chocolate cherry more often than not. It's also very common to see people walking along the counter to pick their flavors. If you haven't made a decision, and the people behind you in line know what they want, do the right thing and let them go first. They give healthy scoops, and one scoop, although it doesn't sound like much, might be enough for someone with less post-dinner space available in their belly. If it's your first time visiting, watch the scoops being given to the person in front of you before making your decision. As an added bonus, during Spring and Summer Saturday nights, they have live music in the room as well. It's a cheap, fun date.
