Right in the heart of downtown Summit, Boxwood Coffee is the kind of place that makes you want to become a regular. Upon walking in, it strikes a balance between cozy and modern, with a warm welcoming atmosphere. Love that they have pour over coffee here and freshly roasted beans for purchase. I normally order a regular coffee but when I saw the menu for their seasonal lattes and the Caramel Delite Girl Scout Cookie Latte was on there - I had to get it and I'm so glad I did because it was delicious. The staff is friendly and the service was quick. Highly recommend if you're in Summit and looking for a caffeine fix, or just want a spot to hang out, catch up with friends or even to do some work.

Nice ambiance in this coffee shop and we were there early in the morning and the staff was friendly and helpful. As a sucker for really good coffee, I opted for an expensive pour-over ($8 for a small) and the flavor of the coffee made evident the precision of the roasting done here but the coffee itself was relatively lukewarm warm which is a shame when you are expecting quality. My wife ordered a caramel iced latte with oat milk and she said it was good, but nothing memorable. Seems like it has some nice potential and would give it a shot again.

With a late afternoon flight out of Newark and nowhere to go until then to work, I decided to visit Boxwood Coffee for some food and a nice workspace at the recommendation of my friend who's a local. This place is incredible, the staff were all super friendly and helpful, the place is very tidy, with a nice quietly atmosphere perfect for working from, plenty of seating and outlets, and some delicious food and drink options. As a non-coffee drinker, sometimes coffee shops can be big flops for me, but they had a very nice tea menu so I decided to try some of their Hibiscus berry tea which was very refreshing, fruity, and floral. Additionally, I was hungry so got one of their beautiful baked goods - a banana chocolate chip muffin. Anyone who knows me, knows this is exactly the type of baked good I love and it checked off all the boxes. Such a delicious way to start my day. I stayed here for the whole morning while I drank, ate, and worked and it seemed that was pretty normal here. The place got pretty busy towards lunch time, but the staff never made me feel unwelcome. Great experience !

Cute little café in Summit. Coffee is really good, and the staff is friendly. Came here around 8:30 am on a Saturday for a quick bite and coffee while my car was in the shop. Quiet and cozy- perfect!

Not that busy (no line out the door) and it takes 35-40 mins for a latte to be made. No exaggeration. Why???

My latte wasn't great. The flavor of the espresso was extremely mild and the donut I ordered was so dry.

I loved studying here! It was a cozy and mostly quiet coffee shop in such a great neighborhood…read more What I assume was the owner and her workers were very kind and super helpful navigating the menu and what I should get. I ended up getting a banana nut muffin, which was cooked nicely with a nice crunch on top. I did not get to finish it because I was full from eating breakfast at home, but I enjoyed it all the same. They have great wifi and great seats to get work done.

It's also nicely situated near the Summit train station making it really convenient for travelers. We both ordered Raspberry Hibiscus iced tea ($3). You get a lot, for what you pay for. We were pleasantly surprised. Additionally, the tea was really nice, just sweet enough to not be bitter, but not artificially sweetened. It was the perfect refreshing drink for a sunny Saturday in Summit. We also split the Serra Sweet Apple sandwich ($8.50) with jam, apple, cheese, and glaze balsamic on wheat bread. It was amazing. The crunch of the tangy apple paired with the saltiness of the cheese and sweetness of the glaze balsamic and jam was well done. I don't typically choose apple on sandwiches, but I appreciated this. Will be sure to return.

Fueling Up on Springfield Ave…read more Stopped by Gregorys Coffee - Summit on Springfield Ave in downtown Summit with a friend on a Sunday evening for a quick grab-and-go coffee. We came right before closing, and even while they were winding down, the space felt clean, cozy, and welcoming. I ordered a small vanilla protein cold brew ($8) through the InKind app for easy pickup -- it hit the spot. It wasn't busy when we stopped in, but being right downtown, I can easily see this being a popular stop during peak hours. It's a great place for fueling up before hitting the local shops -- or recharging after. There are tables, chairs, and outlets available if you're planning to stay and get some work done, though we were just grabbing and going. We lucked out with street parking, but I imagine it depends on timing. Friendly staff, smooth ordering, and a cozy vibe. It's on the pricier side, but I'd still come back for another fuel-up.

The drink kinda tasted like a brown sugar, which I loved! 10/10 Unfortunately the matcha wasn't the best, it was very watered down with too much oat-milk. No taste to it at all. Service was okay, I greeted first & wasn't a word said to me. More like of what do you want & that's it. Wasn't so welcoming. Ambiance is pretty chill, you can sit there of course & be able to work / study. Had to give it a 3 start for the service & matcha.. Probably wouldn't come back to this location exact.

It was a delight to have his return to town at Mondo and later across Springfield Ave to the market place at Wine List. I simply require a respectable cuppa joe in the morning - no fancy artwork on a cappuccino or a sugary beverage. I like the daily pot so that my taste buds get varied perks, especially Ahree special blend or Java on Monday mornings. Many come in to buy by the pound, including the upscale Kona - or order online. My drill 4-5 times a week is to go in and chatter with wine, cheese chocolate & flower folks. Like the nearby brewery, the staff & regulars there create a Cheers-like atmosphere. This week marks Ahree's 35th anniversary in the coffee business & is offering a free cup of java daily !!

Anyway, since then I've been back 3 more times; once for breakfast and twice for brunch. And while I'm confessing, the two times for lunch were on subsequent days. Yeah, they're that good. Actually, their chicken salad on a croissant is the best I've ever had and in my advanced years I've had a crapload of chicken salad.

Then there's a seating area when you can eat, served by a friendly attentive staff and an adjacent boutique area where you can purchase housewares, clothing and other cool stuff. I'm not in Maplewood all that often, generally when I'm shopping at the equally awesome City Workshop but when I do, I always make sure to hit up Perch. You should too. 1/2 star deduction because they don't offer fake sugar, just that Stevia crap which is gross.

The wall frames and Christmas decorations are gorgeous and there are tables, with comfortable seating, on one end of the Cafe. I ordered the following: Matcha White Hot Chocolate (a traditional matcha latte blended with white chocolate sauce), Snickerdoodle Latte (A traditional latte, blended with brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla syrup). Both of these were served at the perfect temperature, were richly creamy, and served in large mugs. I also ordered a Carrot Cake Muffin and it was very good. It was moist, each forkful had a decent amount of walnuts, and the frosting was exquisite. Once you're finished with your food, don't forget to stroll through the entire cafe. You'll probably find something that will pique your interest. Either way, try to make time to enjoy it all.
