    winter menu: coquito Latte, iced cranberry white chocolate matcha and iced praline dream latte
    Maria V.

    I'm always on the hunt for a good cafecito or a fun drink. Alonso's is the perfect cozy warm neighborhood coffee spot! The baristas are so kind and patient, ready to recommend drinks, chat about the menu or just your day! It was fairly quiet when we first walked in only to look back and see a line. The community is there and a line is always a good sign that a place is good- but do not fret they move fast. They have seasonal menus which I love at a great prices and yummy hand held pastries! Can't wait to be back!

    Iced oat milk lattes

    Some of the best coffee in the area, hands down. Coffee is delish. Flavors are always on point and staff is always super nice. Place is always clean!! Easily in my top 3 coffee spots around the area AND their matcha is also fire. Try the winter berry syrup with their matcha while its in season. ALSSOO they have breakfast burritos available which always come in clutch when rushing to/from the gym nearby

    Lovely barista with solid customer service and a comfortable environment to plug in and work. Parking is on the street or in a lot across the street. Initially I ordered tea but they didn't have it. They were nice enough to give me a coffee for the tea price which I greatly appreciate. My cold brew was good and I'll happily return.

    Decor

    They were welcoming and friendly. We ordered a latte with oat milk, a flat white with almond milk and a cheese scone. They nicely offered to heat it up, which made the scone even better. The latte was good, perfectly steamed. The flat white, not as good. Very foamy and it didn't seem like they put as much care into it, given that the latte had art and I saw them just pouring the milk in for the flat white. I saw a lot of people ordering a matcha latte and I would try this next time! Looks bright green so the matcha seems of good quality.

    Pumpkin spice latte

    Stopped by here on a whim and was pleasantly surprised! The decor is super cute and the owners are friendly. I got a pumpkin spice latte and my friend got a peach matcha. Normally I'm a matcha girl but matcha can be a miss at a lot of places so I was hesitant to try it at a new place. However, I did try my friend's matcha and it was really good! I didn't notice it myself but she said they use a matcha whisk, so you know it's legit :) I'd definitely come back here for matcha. The PSL was also really good, and they also had other creative fall specials. The only thing is that I wish they had an updated menu posted somewhere. I'm the type of person to study a menu before going to a restaurant so that I know what my options are. I did find their specials on their Instagram but it would be nice to have the full updated menu uploaded in an accessible spot like on a story highlight, Google Maps, or a website. I'd also love to know more about the cafe, like how it started, their vision, and how they make their products.

    Chai tea with oat milk

    Don't want to gatekeep this place although when you go, you will keep going so let's get in and out when you order so it doesn't get packed when I get there! Delicious chai tea and snacks. The sweetest people ever!

    super cute spot & friendly owners! Vsited with my pup, and they were so welcoming. I ordered a cold brew and mango peach tea - both were delicious! They also have an impressive selection of drinks. Will definitely be coming back!

    Ice hazelnut latte and cheddar scallion scone
    Rebecca C.

    I'm so happy we have such a good coffee shop in town now! I got a iced hazelnut latte and a cheddar scallion scone and they were both fantastic! The coffee was so good and the scone tasted so fresh! The cafe is cozy and inviting and super clean. They were so friendly and will definitely be coming back! Welcome to Garwood Alonso's Cafe!

    This is a super cute little bakery and coffee shop in Downtown Westfield. There is street parking…read moreand a few parking lots in the area so we just parked at one, wanted about, and also made a stop here. As a nod to the name (Kirshenbaum is German for cherry tree), there are little cherries everywhere inside from signs to wallpaper. Ample seats, natural light, friendly staff, plus delectable treats make this place a good one to stop at. They also serve light bites but as we were sort of hopping from one place to another on a Sunday, I only ordered a few sweet treats. BLACK FOREST: my daughter picked this, likely because she thought it was a chocolate cake. But it was not your average chocolate cake. A good sized slice with moist cake, cherries, and dark chocolate bits throughout, I highly enjoyed this one. It's perfectly sweet - though I admit my daughter finished the exterior layer of frosting so the thin layered in between the cake were ideal for my taste buds. It was a bit too elevated for my daughter who only really wanted your regular chocolate cake. MATCHA CRUFFIN: This is a croissant-muffin filled with matcha cream, rolled in sugar. The laminated dough was packed so not like your airy-but-crispy-exterior croissant, nor was it noticeable buttery, but it did do its job by keeping its shape and the layers helped give its name. It was lovely to pull apart, with a nice, chewy texture. The filling wasn't exactly in the center (I shared this with my husband) so I dipped a little into the filling (borderline reminded me of pastry cream) that my husband got. It's light but also has a very nice matcha flavor that comes through. RASPBERRY LYCHEE PIE: I love pie and I was happy to find a uniquely flavored one here especially since it reminded me of my favorite ice cream flavor in Europe at Haagen Dazs years back (rose raspberry lychee) so I pounced on it. First off, this is definitely a mousse pie. We're vegetarian so a part of me wonders if gelatin was used to make this so I likely won't get this a second time without me asking the necessary questions - but it is good. As with most mousse confections, this is light and delicate in a way. Airy. Still substantial that I didn't feel cheated out of my money but not too filling. Nothing overpowered each other and the flavors and textures worked together beautifully. There were chunks of raspberries but I don't recall actual bits of lychee fruit in there, though you do get the flavor of it in there. I absolutely love the interesting flavors here and the items I got. I especially am a fan of how everything is perfectly sweet. I have a sweet tooth, but only for things that aren't too sweet and this is completely up my alley. They do have gluten free options but nothing extensive. And I'm pretty sure they include eggs. I have a kid with multiple food allergies and he couldn't have anything here so I got him a bottle of apple juice and he was content with it. I'll definitely stop by again to try more items and get a drink to go with. Maybe get my daughter a cookie since I hear they're pretty good.

    Usually this location has great baked goods, and mediocre prepared hot food. Today i found some…read moregrey specs on my croissant which seem to be consistent with mold from humidity or from some other source of contamination.

First off: Service. I told the employee that this was my first time there, and they were more-than-happy to help me make a decision for my order. Patient and walked me through. Second: The Food. Let's get into it. 1) Cassava Latte ($7.50) - I was so pleasantly suprised at this drink; described as "(i)nspired by the Filipino dessert cake, made with condensed milk and coconut." The first sip, and I was intrigued! It was perfectly sweet, and the perfect mix of that coconut-dessert taste that cassava typically delivers! It tasted genuine, if that's possible. 2) Sinigang Croquette ($5.00) - This was interesting. Described as "Pork and Gabi (taro) shaped into a patty, rolled in Japanese bread crumbs, and deep fried. Served with our in-house sawsawan (dipping sauce)", it hit all the right notes. To be honest? $5.00 for 1 felt a bit steep. I'd pay $7.50 for two, though! 3) Boy Bawang Shio Pan ($7.50) - This was the most curious of all my purchases. Described as an "(i)n-house salt bread rolled in garlic and corn crumbs, filled with roasted garlic butter, topped with corn cheese whip. Inspired by the popular Filipino snack: Boy Bawang. THIS ITEM I SING ITS PRAISES. I am an absolute lover of the Boy Bawang Garlic Flavor Corn Snack --- much more pungent than anything Corn Nuts could ever offer. This Shio Pan absolutely delivered with its roasted garlic flavor! And as soon as you take a few bites ---- you get hit with that roasted garlic butter --- and let me tell you, they are not shy about their filling! Absolute master class --- but it's only for a limited run. You should definitely try! Third: Ambiance - The Cafe is quaint --- and has a seating area that could maybe fit between 18-24 people? It's just along the side of the business, but I managed to get a table for myself. Ayala, you did not disappoint! Can't wait to try your Sisig Flatbread for the next round!

I come here only on Sunday mornings and often, when there is usually no line. For two years I have been doing this , I have received ZERO eye contact, no warmth, no engagement from this shift's crew--until today. That's why it mattered when one Asian barista this morning (who wasn't the one to take my order) warmly looked at me, smiled, and said something kind. It came right after her coworker placed my drink down, mumbled my name, and they turned their back on me when I thanked them -- but weren't doing anything else! Same energy when they took my order minutes earlier even when I was the only person in line. Like I owe them a favor for being at their counter! I've watched them and their colleagues treat me this way consistently. Mind you, I either only order a latte, a matcha, or a pastry. The worst part is that this treatment feels selective. I''ve seen this same crew be friendly, laugh, and engage with other customers--but from what I've seen for 2 years is that it seems only a certain type of walk-in gets this reception. It suck's to be flatly received and then notice the person behind me get a smile and a conversation, even if it's obvious that they're not a regular here ... at least not on Sundays. :) Again, thank you to that barista who broke the pattern for me today because I finally felt seen. I added a 3rd star out of gratitude. :) If you've found this crew non-selectively friendly, I'd genuinely like to know what day you come--because my Sunday morning experience has been consistently selective. I choose to be optimistic. And to management, let's talk about this.
