Came here for lunch and service was quick and the staff was kind. Cafe Peanut has lots of seating, great retro-inspired decor, and one bathroom. Close to the PATH station. Ordered the Italian sandwich and a matcha latte. Prices were a bit steep for the items. The sandwich was good, would get again - Around $14 and very filling. The matcha was around the $7 mark with a milk substitution and lacked flavor, so I would probably go for a coffee next time. read more

The staff? Beautiful. The food? Delicious. The Coffee? Liquid Gold. When I wake up in the morning, my first thought is, COFFEE!! This is the same thought Cafe Peanut has.

I would name my first born son peanut. WELL DONE read more

We had the lavender and caramel lattes--both delicious. Our coffees came out quickly even though the shop was packed. We came on a Saturday afternoon and there happened to be live music in the front. Overall it was a was a lively, cozy experience. We'll be back! Update: We came back a week later and were just as happy. Apparently there is live music every Saturday afternoon. This time we ate lunch; we had carrot ginger soup with focaccia, Greek salad, and a veggie quesadilla. I actually ordered the chicken quesadilla without chicken, and the cashier offered to add beans to the cheese and fajita filling. Came served with chips and a chipotle sauce. Mmm read more

I tried their Matcha Tea Latte, Pesto Grilled cheese and Turkey BLT Wrap. My favorite was the pesto grilled cheese. The decor was super adorable and very instagrammable. We must've gone at a busier time since the wait was a bit steep however, the service was great. The matcha didn't have any wow factor but it was a great spot to grab a bite. read more

Wonderful staff!! And such a cute, cozy little neighborhood coffee shop. We stopped in to grab coffee and light bites before heading into the city and we'll definitely be back in the future since our friends live right around the corner! Try the grilled cheese sandwich if you're looking for some good comfort food! read more

Ordered via DoorDash and I am so mad that I wasted $46+ on this place! They have some nerve calling this "avocado toast" & charging $16.50 for it! Smallest piece of "toast" (wasn't even toasted btw) with the tiniest egg I've seen but even worse was that there was no actual avocado! After taking a couple bites with zero taste of avocado I moved the spring mix aside to see there was NO avocado or avocado mash at all on the bread (see pic). Instead it was just a mix of diced tomato & cucumber & onion mixed with a tiny bit of fake guac-like sauce that tasted like a cup of water had been mixed in (nope can't even call it guac). I don't mind spending money on good avocado toast but no one can call this avocado toast. Talk about ripping off your customers. Thank goodness I ordered the "original bagel" ($13.75!) as well or I would've been completely starving, but even with that they were so stingy that there was the thinnest layer of cream cheese possible. Also I ordered a hot Peppermint Mocha ($6.75) and instead they sent me an iced latte! If you're going to charge so much at least provide some quality food. I'm being generous even giving 2 stars. Don't waste your money here. read more

Very cozy coffee shop. Nice, generous staff. Great latte & tea options. Both the lavender and turmeric lattes are good. They are now served with pretzel sticks. They have games that you can use if with friends. I really like this cafe and highly recommend it. Go, enjoy!! read more

Just left here. We walked in, it wasn't busy. It's quite dark inside. We looked around for a menu and found it in the front . We continued to wait and realized that the woman working was just leaned behind the counter, on her phone. We could have said something to her but the fact that she didn't even greet us when we came in and she continued to be on her phone the entire time we were there, was a turn off. So we left. read more

Happened upon this place before heading to the airport and I'm so happy I did! Had a coffee and breakfast and, as you can see, it is very well made. Fresh ingredients and very fast service. The atmosphere is comfortable and well kept. I would highly recommend this place! read more

My husband and I come to this cafe every Sunday as our dog is welcomed and the food is typically good and staff is always welcoming. Today we came in and a new employee named Lisa was neurotic and highly unprofessional. This location always has dog treats , water bowls, and other dogs on premises- i believe once there has been an actual sign exclaiming that "dogs are welcome". Today , Lisa passively aggressively told my husband and I that "dogs are not welcomed and next time we should not bring him in". My husband kindly let her know that we have actually met the owner before and he never said anything and we have been coming here for a year with our dog with no issues. She then exclaimed that "if they get inspected they will get in trouble". Not only was her tone passive aggressive and unprofessional, she was wrong, but also totally disregarded another woman who had a dog (who was much larger than our dog) who was sitting at another table. We had a confrontation and I took everything to go. It's very disappointing that a staff member would treat a regular customer like this. We will not be returning thanks to Lisa. read more

Convenient location-across from the courthouse. Coffees came highly recommended. So figured I would try their lavender latte. Wasnt a huge fan but would return to try another drink. Their special wrap was delicious but the wrap was tiny. Not enough chicken. More arugula than anything else. Removed one star for the price vs the amount of food you get. The ambiance is nice-such a cute cafe. Just expected more for the price. Pls make your wraps worth the price tag. read more

The cafe's ambience has lots of plants and gives off a vintage vibe - totally my style. I swung by with two of my friends on a weekend for brunch, unsure if it was expected to be a slower day, but there was only one employee working the front and one working the back. Therefore, service was a bit slow and they forgot one of our drink orders. I ordered an order of avocado maddness - which was pretty good. Transparently, I don't remember what my friends but they called out their meals are pretty decent as well. Unsure if it's worth the price but it was nice to check it out. read more

Lots of love for cafe peanut! We moved into the neighborhood last year and they've been such a life saver whether it's needing a caffeine fix or a spot to work from while our internet is down. The crew here is also super friendly and always approachable. Their matcha latte is awesome and I'm a big fan of their lavender latte for a unique, special treat. It's great to walk by during the day and see how lively it is during the lunch rush. I've gotta stop by and try one of their sandwiches one day! read more

The wait for the food was rather long when I visited Cafe Peanut. We had a party of 7 so I understand long waits but it was way longer than I expected, and even worse most of our food was cold, specifically the bagels. I ordered the egg and cheese on a bagel and it was good but nothing special. Despite all this, I enjoyed the live music and the atmosphere overall. It was a cute little cafe and I feel like I would've enjoyed it more if I just came for coffee rather than the food. read more

So my 3 stars is because the food is overpriced yessss This is Jersey city !!!! How you can buy a breakfast burrito for $9.25 no meat just eggs, a lot of mix greens and a few chunks of tomatoes and probably some cheese and so so small!!!! Small Tropicana juice 3.25 ???? Come on this is not Manhattan NY a break fats for two people $32.00 this is bad !!!! The place is nice I love it the costumer service is great !!!! But I'm not coming back !!! read more

Found this spot after needing a pit stop during our long road trip. The location is a gem; it looks to be in a great area of the city, is very clean, quirky, and has a great menu. We ordered a sandwich and some coffees to go and everything was fresh and delicious. I wish we could've dined in as the place provided a great atmosphere to hang out and grab a bite and some coffee with pals. The service was phenomenal; the waitress was so kind! You could tell she loved her job. If I'm ever back in the area, I will definitely come back! read more

Wow ! Hidden gem in the journal square area . Live music too ! The lattes are delicious . Must vis Update 2024 unfortunately I'm deducting stars for the value for money or lack of . The portion size of the Salads is a Joke ! $14 for literally 1 oz of chicken bits and pieces and even the veggies were SO SPARSE literally 4-5 leaves of romaine with 2-3 cherry tomatoes and 4 pieces cucumber lol . I felt a pinch paying that much for absolutely nothing . Didn't even fill me up . I had to go to another cafe where I ate till satisfied AND had leftovers all within $10 Also , . The lattes / cappuccinos here are served like warm at best . I hope they do something about this . I really like coming here for the vibes but it's not worth it anymore read more

Good place to hang out for your coffee fix. The staff is friendly and accommodating. They have limited outdoor seating, no cover from the sun. Inside is much larger but a little uncomfortable at the moment. A great place and hope they are able to weather the COVID storm. We will visit them when the weather is better. Recommended! read more

Just had a quick coffee run to this place and so want to go again to explore more. Picked up two cappuccinos and it tasted absolutely amazing. Interiors were pleasing to the eyes, walls covered in new and quirky prints/frames, books/novels available and good ambiance for work too. read more

Decent cafe in the courthouse area of Jersey City, although way overpriced for that area and what is offered. The food is decent, some items like bagel w/ PBJ is 8.95 lol :) - no idea how that is justified. Verdict - I hope they get competitive with prices and flavor when more places open around. Genuinely wish they thrive when they turn down the prices a couple notches. read more

This is such a cute cafe! A nice addition to this area. I was looking for a place to work while my car was being serviced at the auto shop nearby and stumbled upon this gem. Totally love the decor and vibe. Ordered the cafe au lait ($4) which was nice but I wished was a tad creamier & stronger. Would try their other drinks on the menu next time like the lavender latte (barista told me they make this drink's syrup themselves) read more

I stopped in to grab some coffees and the staff here were super friendly and helpful. I ordered a Nitro Cold Brew for me and a Iced Chai Latte for X. Both were very good and reasonably priced. I called back into the store a few hours later to inquire about a missing item and the barista offered to take down my information in case they found it at closing time. They were the only place to offer to do this for me, so I'm super grateful. read more

I always love stopping by here! Not only is the ambiance of the cafe itself the *actual* best, the owners of the store is SO nice and personable. Also helps that the food/coffee is amazing too.

Absolutely without a doubt the best coffee + breakfast sandwich in Journal Square. Very cute cafe vibes

This place is amazing! It's a very cute coffee shop with a lot of character! I love the setting! What also makes this place amazing is the customer service! It is rare for you to feel welcomed at a coffee shop. And me personally that's one of the things I look for. A coffee shop for me is a place where I go to enjoy my coffee at a home away from home and Cafe Peanut has done just that. The owners Ilir and D are amazing amazing people! The coffee, food and service are always on point! You won't be disappointed! I have referred a lot of people and every single one so far has loved it just the same read more

Such a cute cafe!! The owners are great and the food and coffee are top notch. My favorite thing is that the owners took time to talk to the customers and share their story to form a bond.

Very cute cafe by the courthouse. Nice decor throughout and a good size menu for breakfast and brunch. I liked that they had frequent visitor cards for both drinks and sandwiches. I was going to get a latte but switched when the person in front if me got a London Fog (earl grey tea, steamed milk, lavender), it was delicious. From the breakfast menu I had a sesame bagel with scallion cream cheese which also had a bit of dill, what a good idea! I much preferred it to other bagel options in the heights. I will be back soon. read more

This café was super cute, my sister and I were at the surgery center about two blocks away and we ran into this café and were instantly drawn by the vintage design and adorable food/coffee options. As soon as you walk in you order towards your left. They ask you if it is to stay or to go where if you decide to stay, you may have a seat and they bring you your order. The service was very nice, there are a lot of stool to sit by the wall, a couch towards the back and about 7 different seats that sit two per table. It's small, comfortable and cute! They accept cash & cards and have a gender neutral bathroom. Also, it seems like the go to for workers lunch breaks! The service was very kind :) I came with my sister; who equally loved it; We ordered: Sunny Side Up Avocado Smash $14.50, I thought it was good! I like my avocado smash with lemon which they don't put so I did add some of my own, Chicken Pesto Sandwich $11.50, it was so good!! Both come with a side of chips, we also ordered a Hot Lavender Latte & Chai Tea Latte, not sure of the price but they were at least $5, they were also very good! The total for these four times were $37 and change before tip! They serve free lemon water and there is a table as soon as you walk in towards the right with a self serve table that has napkins, salt, sugar, etc. & "dirty dish" section where you place your well, dirty dishes when your done. We are not from NJ, we are from NY so unfortunately the chances of us returning are not likely but we highly recommend any one in the area trying it out! read more
