Greatly cute spot perfectly located in Jersey City, where it can get busy but this place gives you peace. Very modern/rustic place, perfect for coffee lovers and those who like some quite space to enjoy and do some work. I actually got an iced latte with a side of banana bread, which did not last long, it was too delicious. The coffee was great, the barista was so nice and made my coffee exactly how I like it, I added a bit butterscotch flavor and told her I did not want it to be sweet, the very less, the better and she delivered! This made me too happy! I want to go back again when I'm back in the area, so happy I found it!
This is a cute little coffee shop that's in the center of Jersey city! I love the exposed brick that's inside the expresso bar, adds to the rustic feel of the place. It's definitely one of those places that you could grab a seat by the window and study or ready a book all day. The pasteries were tempting, the chocolate croissant especially seemed delicious. I ended up getting the pumpkin spice latte - honestly better than most of the ones I've had. The pumpkin flavor was not too overwhelming and it was the perfect level of sweetness.
I got myself a chai and this place is literally called coffee espresso bar! I wasn't really impressed by the chai if I'm being honest! But I went inside and I smelled the coffee and I think that's definitely the way to go! Although I'm gonna give the chai a 2- I want to come back and try the coffee and lattes because I think they will be awesome Will report back soon! Definitely giving this place another shot very soon!
Dames is a beautiful and quiet venue for coffee and tea. The backyard is open to relax a d read a book and enjoy your coffee, tea and espresso or catch up on conversation/s. It's a tidy and quaint venue with excellent service and caffeine options. Try their banana bread slice if you can, it's delicious too.
Such a cute & small coffee shop! Stopped by and got the butterscotch latte & an almond chocolate croissant. The latte was good, not too sweet at all (which I kind of wanted?) but was still solid. And the croissant was really really good too! The indoors is cute and they've also got an outdoor area to sit at too. Can't wait to try more of their stuff for sure!
Great tasting iced chai latte, with outdoor seating. Nice and friendly staff behind the counter. It was about $5 and change for a small drink.
Upon walking you see a cute quaint wooden faced sign. Beautiful window seat already occupied. Wall community table. Small tables inside. Snacks available. Juices too! And extra outside courtyard seating with a a lovely rose bush. Prices reasonable, I got the small hot chai with oat milk. It was made so0o quick! It's not too sweet, the spices are a bit too strong for me but I still enjoyed it. No gluten free options here I see. But that's okay. Very small to sit in front of the cafe but I got to enjoy the whole backyard to myself & journal. What a great place here in JC!
A good cup of cappuccino always gets four stars from me. Nice interior and they have a patio inside! Just ask to make sure it's open and the staff will show you the way. Only downside is that sitting area inside is closed so not a place to bring laptop and work.
Delightful place, eclectic Jersey City coffee shop with some delightful flavors of tea and coffee. Seating is for less than 10 people. Most people come in for a take out. Since it was Christmas Eve there was only one friendly staffer. I only wish she had not poured cram into my coffee making it milky. I could have done that myself. Since I don't live in the neighborhood, I will probably come here again.
Cute little cafe with good ambiance. Came here for afternoon cafe and ordered Chai Latte which is pretty decent. Only had to wait a bit to order yet still will come back again.
Dames Espresso Bar is my latest obsession, and as a Jersey City native, I'm kind of jealous I found out about it so late. Let's talk about addiction: the honey yuzu tea has me in a very tight chokehold. Now, I'm not a big banana person, but the banana bread has the perfect amount of banana. It's not overpowering, and it's moist. Even at 3 PM, the slices are still very much moist. I always ask for mine warmed up a little, and it's a no-brainer. I believe it's a family-owned and family-run business, and they are the sweetest people you'll ever interact with. You can tell they absolutely love serving the community. read more
Found this coffee shop to shelter from the rain. Pumpkin Spice Latte: Having tried chestnut Dirty, I was really looking forward to the effect of this combination of sweet starch and coffee. However, the cinnamon flavor was overwhelmingly strong, while the sweetness of the pumpkin was completely absent. How could it be so awful?! I simply cannot appreciate the AMERICAN way of using cinnamon. read more

I'll be thinking about this latte for some time to come. I usually drink my coffee black but every once in a while I'll have a latte as a treat. I ordered the butterscotch latte, assuming it would probably be too sweet but it was INCREDIBLE. So smooth, flavorful, and not sweet at all. Will be back for sure! Baristas we're also very friendly! read more
Small spot, big yummy ness. Got the soy and oat milk cappuccino along with their banana bread. Cappuccino was good, soy was not to sweet. Banana bread is light, not to sweet either. Not too chewy either. Staff is super friendly too, check em out! read more

I haven't actually tried the coffee here yet but they make a great chai latte! It's a cute little place but with some seating and free wifi to do work if you need to. They also have a secret garden in the back that is so cute and perfect for warm days. I also tried the blueberry muffin they have here and it was so good! I wonder where they get their pastries from or if they make them... The baristas were friendly and quick to take orders. I was here on a Sunday morning and it wasn't too busy. Curious to know if they get busier on weekdays. The location is a few blocks away from Newark Ave so it's a little off the Main Street which might keep it quieter. Overall I would recommend coming here for a pastry or coffee. They don't have any savory snacks or sandwiches though. I would give them 5 stars but they only take cash! read more
It's a neighborhood place, and is probably great for a residential neighborhood. I was in the mood for hot chocolate and asked the woman behind the counter, what is in the hot chocolate. Alright,maybe I could have passed it better, but i didn't expect a laugh and a slightly condescending answer of 'chocolate and milk'. I expect a cafe to tell me what kind of cocoa powder. When I elaborated, she looked confused and tried to check, but couldn't figure that out either. So....you don't know what kind of hot chocolate you serve...? I then decided to go down the safe route of tea...which also failed to impress me. their green tea tastes like toasted rice tea from a Korean restaurant, and less like green tea. I also had 'the diplomat' which is a bread pudding with filling in the middle. This was also ok, but didn't strike me as a memorable bread pudding or pastry. The space is cute and no one rushes you, but it's small. The total number of seats can't be more than 14, and that's with everyone elbow to elbow. Overall, the woman annoyed me and their offerings couldn't make up for me. So I can't say if recommend coming back. read more

I absolutely love small coffee shops. This quaint one is located in downtown Jersey City. It can be easily missed but if you're just strolling around the beautiful neighborhood you'll be lured by the amazing coffee smell. I haven't been here during a rush hour morning, but I would think that it'll be a tight spot LOL there is some seating in the front but during really nice weather, there is a little backyard seating. It's like a hidden gem of garden away from the concrete jungle. They serve all from teas to custom lattes. Whatever you get is sure to taste amazing. The chai latte is my favorite! read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE. Their coffee, espresso, and lattes are delicious! The quality of the coffee is very rich and I just fell in love with the place. It also has a cozy ambience to it! Coming from a person who is cheap a'f (me) I don't mind spending a pretty penny for a cup of their heavenly goodness in a cup. I was a coffee master and barista at a previous coffee shop and take it from me, their coffee quality is A1. I switched from Starbucks on Grove and take the walk here instead; they surpass Starbucks. To address some of the neg. comments I've seen. 1.Re. the cash only, you guys have to remember, it's a small business, a little mom and pop shop, they're revenue isn't as much as corporate giants like Starbucks who exploit places like this. To stay open in downtown JC, every penny counts and they have to pay sizable fees for credit/debit transactions. If you care about small businesses, you have to understand this. (Sorry for getting political but it's true). 2.Re. it being pricy, they have a reason to be. They bring to the table third-wave coffee, the quality of the coffee is handpicked from how it is grown, sourced, and brewed. If you want quality coffee, sometimes you pay the price. At least they have reward punch cards and you can get a free drink once you get all the punches! read more
This was a great little cafe to get some work done in. It's cozy and not too noisy and the drinks are really good. There's free WiFi, outlets, and bathroom. Customers were constantly in and out, and although it's not a huge cafe, we didn't really have trouble finding seats. They play really nice coffee shop music in the background. read more
I don't know guys.....I don't know. I have mixed feelings because the espresso is delicious. But my iced coffee was very weak, didn't pack any punch or flavor. It honestly tasted like watered down coffee. And I didn't add any milk or sugar in it either. I also got an almond croissant, which I was so excited about. It looked delicious! But after a few bites, I was honestly not impressed. It tasted very dry and bland to me. The service is good and the place itself is really cozy, but I don't think I'd come here again. read more

Um, ok I'm hating on this place a bit. Let me tell you why. I had a bad customer service incident. I believe that I handed a $100 bill to the girl at the counter and got change for a $10. I meant to give the $10. I went in a day later and spoke with whom I think is the owner/manager and told her about this predicament. She laughed in my face, was sarcastic and told me that yes there was a $100 bill in the register but the register came out perfect. She didn't ask who was serving me? She'll look into it. She was quick to make me feel like an idiot and to push me out of the place. Really, what register ever comes out perfect? And whose handing $100 bills out at Dames (other than me clearly). I left feeling completely mistreated and not heard at all but, I left just saying I'm the idiot, I need to pay more attention and oh well. Move on, it sucks but, move on. I didn't like how I was treated but, I still go cause there coffee is decent and it is next to my house. I went this morning with a friend and I handed over a $20 for my $2.75 coffee and the girl gave me $12. I learned my lesson and was paying close attention and say excuse me you didn't give me the right change. She asked me what I was talking about. Her coworker had to inform her that she forgot to give me a $5. The girl and barista were the same two people from the $100 incident. It's fruitless by now to ask about the $100 since no one is going to admit it but, clearly this is an issue. Maybe I'm just a mark? I wasn't going to Yelp this but, after today's incident I feel that this type of service is unacceptable. Please count your change when you shop here. read more
