The raspberry pistachio croissant was pretty but im just not a raspberry fan in general and found the filling to be quite tarty. for drinks, I got their Mocha latte and enjoyed that as well. If I ever stop by again im definitely getting those madeleines one more time!

Brrrrr, baby, it's cold outside in the middle of the night in December, and we stopped in at this…read moresweet-looking cafe for a bit of warmth and coffee. I wasn't sure if it opened as I didn't see anybody inside at first. Then we opened the door and stepped inside, and called out. We found the employee sitting behind the counter, but the counter was so big that it obstructed our view of knowing they were there. Upon looking around, they had a nice assortment of pastries and baked goods, along with wrapped sandwiches from earlier in the day. I spied the baked goods section and could not resist getting a chocolate chip cookie as we eyed their baked goods. We decided to share since I need to watch my calories during the holidays. I want to celebrate Christmas, and not look like Santa. The employee there made two lattes for us and asked if we would like her to heat the cookie. Yes, please and thank you! Upon sitting down, I noticed the big grease mark on the napkin, so it should be noted that their cookies are made with high butter content. The chocolate chip cookie, though generously chipped and served delightfully warm, fell a bit flat on flavor. Similarly, the latte, while hot and satisfying, was overwhelmingly milky, lacking the robust punch of a quality espresso. Here is how it ranked: Chocolate Chip cookie: 3.5/5 stars. Good texture, high butter content, but flat taste. Latte: 3.5/5 stars. Nice and hot, good alternative milk option, but too mild on espresso. This cafe is a perfectly pleasant spot for a moment of refuge and a hot cup of something, especially if you're not concerned with a full-bodied coffee experience or a truly exceptional baked good. If you're out and about needing to warm up, it does the trick.

The…read morestaff is incredibly friendly and, once they knew it was my first time trying display, they explained to me what goes into making their chai and how it is truly authentic. They have a pretty big space in a warming environment, which makes you want to stay to chitchat, work from there, or just sit with yourself and enjoy your beverage. I didn't get to try any of their pastries, but I definitely will give them a try next time I come!

Heads up, the crookies are really like muffins. Anytime I've gone inside the shop to pick-up, the people behind the counter are always friendly and have a good vibe.

Chocolate Chocolate Chip…read more If you are a chocolate lover, get this. Most times it's difficult for me to pick a flavor because I want it all, but thanks to the gentleman that helped me select this flavor that evening... 'twas the perfect decadent treat after a very long day. I love the location. It's cute and quaint but can use some sweeping and table wiping though. The chocolate chocolate chip was creamy and rich!

Ordered: Junior Scoop (~$5): Banana Oreo…read more Aya's take: We stopped by for a quick dessert after dinner and upon entering, I was surprised with how spacious this place is. Plenty of seating and great for hot summer days! I was pretty full and was happy they have a Junior Scoop option. I immediately gravitated to the Banana Oreo flavor which had real banana flavor (not the artificial Laffy Taffy type) along with the Oreos which meshed some rich, smooth, and slightly buttery flavors. I can tell it wasn't as fresh but overall, it was decent especially for the price. Good try; I would try their gelatos next time!

If you are looking for an Italian gem in New Jersey (Montclair) Cafe Giotto is a must-visit…read more Before we tackle the amazing food, the first impressions were great. The lighting is warm and cozy and beckons you to dine in and enjoy every bite. The service at is excellent, from the moment you walk in. Everyone is very friendly and on a busy night we didn't have to wait long. It is BYOB, so we brought a red, white and orange wine that paired well with our meal. My friend eats at Cafe Giotto often so he's of a regular and the staff treated us really well which made our experience even better. We started with the Insalata di Mare, which was very fresh. The handmade pasta is really great and I had the Seafood Linguine, with lots of scallops and shrimp in a broth, and extra spicy. i tasted some of my friends' dishes too, which included flat bread pizza, ravioli, salmon and some other delectable dishes. I ended the night with their Tiramisu. It was the perfect finish, to the meal. Not too sweet and nicely presented with fresh fruit. Though I'm not in Jersey often, I'm sure to return to Cafe Giotto later this year.

I had no idea this place existed for so long and I was really missing out…read more It's located on the cutest street and at first you think it's just a tiny coffee shop but then you realize they have an entire back room seating area and so much to offer. When you enter, there are an assortment of pastries so we had to get the egg custard tart, the caramelized onion and potato tart, and the were very kind to give us a chocolate tart for free. We also ordered a margarita flatbread and an eggplant parm sandwhich. The tomato sauce on the sandwhich and the flatbread is unbeatable. The eggplant parm sandwhich was probably the best one we've ever had. All of the pastries were amazing but the egg custard tart was my favorite. It had a hint of lemon and was super creamy. The owners were so kind and welcoming and I would definitely go back for a small coffee and pastry or for a full meal.

Where else can you get a bowl with unlimited bases and toppings for the same price!? In this economy! This bowl is perfect on a hot day or if you're craving a dessert without the guilt. I love the bases they offer and the fact that you can mix and match them. The dragonfruit and blue coconut were my favorites but somehow along with the matcha and açaí, every bite kept getting better and better. I'm a big fan of their BOOMCHIA pudding and highly recommend getting that as well. All the fruits and toppings were super fresh and high quality. They have a pretty comprehensive selection and you can customize to your liking. There's also some seating so you can enjoy your bowl right away. Check them out; you will be glad you did!

The latte I got was solid as well. The atmosphere is nice and cozy and the cafe is open a little later (8pm), which there is a lack of in Montclair, so I appreciate it for us night owls. The seating is also very nice and comfy. Some coffee shops it feels like they give you hard metal seating because they don't want you sitting too long. This place is the opposite. Nice cushions and even some more reclining type seating. I will be coming back for sure!
