I'm not much of a review person, but what this place did was above and beyond. First of all, coffee is delicious, top 5 spots in South Jersey. The specialty lattes hit the spot. The service was amazing, nicest and most genuine people. If it was closer to my house, I'd be here multiple times a week read more

Really great breakfast, simple options centered around sandwiches and coffee and tea. Lots of latte flavors, though for black drinkers, it isn't anything special. Seating is outdoor only, so bundle up in winter (they have enclosures, but it's only so strong. Service can be a bit slow on weekends read more

I was recently in the area and needed breakfast. Hopped on Yelp like always to see what was nearby and found Driftaway, thought I would give it a shot. I had a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on a croissant with a specialty latte. Everything was delicious. Learned they serve coffee from Crescent Moon from Mullica Hill. Great little cafe, would recommend. read more

This cafe is so cute and they have so many drink options! This might be the largest drink menu I've seen for a coffee shop in the area. I got the lavender matcha latte, which was really good. I appreciate that they have it here year round, because the version at Starbucks is seasonal. Also ordered a bacon egg and cheese on a bagel and it was one of the best breakfast sandwiches we've had in the area. Will definitely be back. read more

I loved drift away Café, I used to go when it first opened, and they are so successful now! The coffee and cold brew is always delicious, and the espresso is a beautiful Amber color. Their breakfast sandwiches are extremely moderately priced, and all of their stuff taste fresh! I live 30 minutes away and I'll still drive there time to time. The customer service is always awesome as well. read more

Delicious food. I ordered a chicken caesar wrap and my brother got a buffalo chicken melt and both were incredible. My friend and I ordered a seasonal flavored coffee that was delicious. The food took a little longer to come out than the drinks but that was fine it still was not a long wait. The person that took our order was incredibly friendly, and the area was super cute with a decent amount of outdoor seating. Would definitely return! read more

This place has always been a hidden gem. They def put time and care into each product that comes out. You can tell everything is fresh, coffee is always excellent (way better than some chain coffee shops) and the little porch out front is super inviting. I would choose this place over any big chain coffee or breakfast sandwhich shop read more

Stopped by on a week day for a coffee and a cookie. This was my first time here and the employee who took my order was very friendly and helpful. I decided on the mocha salted caramel latte and a peanut butter cookie. The latte was perfect - not too sweet, but definitely had good mocha flavor. The peanut butter cookie was on the dry and crumbly side, but not in a bad way. It was delicious. I loved the porch seating. I'll definitely come back to enjoy it in the fall. read more

Soooo good! I got breakfast here with my dad and I loved all my items. I got a banana pudding matcha and a SEC on a cinnamon raisin bagel, both were perfect. Matcha didn't have an overpowering artificial banana flavor, and the bagel on my sandwich is so fresh and yummy! I'll definitely be back soon! read more

Very cute place, workers are nice, breakfast food is amazing (I have yet to try out the lunch menu but I have heard good things) but omg they are extremely slow. I have waited over 15 minutes for a premade croissant (not even toasted) and over 20 minutes post call in order. It seems like that is the vibe of the store, super laid back but if you have literally anything to do after visiting it is best to order online and add an extra 10 minutes, at least, to have a quick pickup. There has been multiple other times where the wait does not seem to make much sense with the size of the crowd but again, great food just horrible time to receive. Also I have tried multiple drinks, everytime the coffee is mid, their specialty drinks like the refreshers and matcha is the only thing I would really spend money on because they are pricey!! read more

Everything is fresh here. The people who work there are so nice. I did give four stars just because it is kind of slow getting orders done but that's not a big deal. Just know that if you're in a rush, this might not be the place to go unless you order ahead. read more

The cutest & best brunch spot in the area!!! you order at a window & they call your name when the order is ready. There is only outdoor seating, but there's plenty of it. I absolutely loved my bagel with sausage, egg & cheese. It was flavored so well and the sausage had a mild sweetness to it which was perfect. My friend got bacon, egg & cheese on a croissant which they enjoyed very much as well! For drinks I got a creme brûlée latte which was too sweet in my opinion but the flavor was good and refreshing. My friend had the tropical smoothie which was food but under sweetened, I don't think it had any added sugar which was good. There were 3 people playing live music which made it a cooler experience. The only thing I disliked was that getting to the bathroom felt like I was walking through someone's messy house & the bathroom was also not very clean. if you skip the bathroom, I'm sure you'll enjoy the food, service & ambiance read more

Nice and classy little breakfast and lunch spot on Gibbsboro Rd. directly next to Napoleon's Cremepuffery and near the Baptist megachurch (Driftaway Cafe is closed on Sundays, otherwise they would draw a mega-sized breakfast and lunch crowd and have to hire more staff on those days!) I ordered the Sausage, Egg & Cheese on a Croissant with extra sausage. Absolutely positively delicious!! Big sized fresh croissant with nicely seasoned sausage and well prepared egg inside (go with the Mexican blend cheese instead of the American cheese!). Kudos for them offering Cafe Au Lait as a coffee drink option on their menu (as most East Coast establishments wouldn't even bother). However, for those of you who have had the real deal at Cafe Du Monde in New Orleans, this version doesn't even come close. The coffee was fresh and it was a strong blend, but it wasn't half coffee, half cream. I had to add Coffeemate creamer to it when I got home. Just an FYI, y'all. The breakfast sandwiches are great, so I'll be back for them and to try their lunch offerings! read more

Ambiance: (4/5) They have enclosed porch seating which creates a cool vibe. I feel like it would get a bit cold in the winter, so I wish there was indoor seating. I don't think this is meant to be a cafe you are meant to work at. Price: (4/5) Prices are fair for the area. Food: (4/5) I really liked my maple cinnamon oat milk latte. It was not very sweet. I thought the oat milk was a bit too watery, but I did still like my drink. The cinnamon roll latte was pretty sweet, but if you are looking for a very sugary coffee drink I dont think this is your place. I am interested to try their matcha. Service: (5/5) Loved the quick service and nice staff. read more

This was their "special steak egg and cheese" on a Kaiser. Unfortunately , meat was next to none, and over salty. Maybe they are better with coffee as their specialty. Waited 20 minutes for this lol read more

Charming little spot. We go quite often. They have some really good non coffee drinks too and their breakfast samiches are really good

If you haven't been to Driftaway Cafe, yet, consider yourself missing out! I am so happy I that I discovered this cute little cafe when I moved to New Jersey. It is exactly the type of vibe I was searching for - small town, friendly, and delicious. I love that they have rotating seasonal drinks, the BEC croissants are truly amazing, and their employees are the cherry on top - all so kind! Be prepared for a wait on a Saturday - expert tip - order ahead for pick up :) read more

So so delicious. Had to wait over 1/2 hour for my breakfast wrap but was definitely worth it. Such a cute place.

A great cafe for a cup of coffee! I had trouble finding it at first so keep an eye out for the smaller brown sign under another sign. I love a place that has special lattes for the season. The staff is always so nice. read more

This place is phenomenal. Went here with a friend for the first time and got a cold brew with some delicious cold foam. It was out of this world. The people who work here are super friendly and the outside sitting area is comfortable. 5+ stars. read more

Went over the weekend to grab a latte. The patio was packed with people ordering and also seating for eat/drink. The person who took my order was very helpful! I informed her of my food allergy and was able to offer recommendations that I would be able to enjoy. read more

Never again!! If you want hot coffee don't order it here! Last time I got a latte it was lukewarm so I decided to try once more and order it extra hot. Once again it was lukewarm at best. I asked if they could make it hotter.I was told no problem only to be told two minutes later they cannot "heat in the microwave because the cup does not fit". I asked if they would remake it so it would be hot like I ordered!! Then I was told no because they would have to use more products if they remake a drink! Excuse me????!!!? Then someone said take the lid off and microwave it. Why would I want a plastic lid in the microwave and why would I want microwaved coffee when I ordered it just now?! They did microwave it and I guess they didn't turn it on because the temp was the same!! I asked for a refund and they were surprised. Then I asked for the receipt and was told they need to redo the refund because they did it wrong. Exactly the reason I asked for the receipt! read more

Love this little place great's breakfast sandwiches great selection of coffees. The only thing is you should call ahead if you don't wanna wait highly recommend. read more

I'm not from NJ, but I've been here twice already so that shows you how good this place is. The first time I was introduced to this place was when my friend's got married. They held their post wedding brunch here. Let me tell you... their croissant breakfast sandwich was amazing as well as their specialty coffees. The second time was just recently for my friend's 40th surprise birthday. Again, I had the croissant breakfast sandwich because it was just THAT good. It's technically a bacon, egg and white American cheese. You can actually have it any way you like it, but this is how I like it. Usually croissant sandwiches are greasy, but this was light, crispy and didn't make my hands oily. There's ample parking and how adorable is this place? It looks like a converted house. You order at the window and wait for your name to be called. The patio wraps around toward the side of the house so there plenty of seating. Sitting outside is so relaxing. It's quiet and serene. The service also is impeccable. They're super nice and hospitable. If you want the perfect place to hold a brunch, check this place out. They accommodate private parties! read more

Feels like I'm down south for some reason, in the best way possible. You're not coming here for the wifi or to study. If you're hanging around you're gonna be doing work offline, or better yet just being present and enjoying being on a porch drinking coffee and eating a breakfast sandwich. read more

Driftaway Cafe - Pork Roll, Egg and Cheese Sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lindenwold, New Jersey

Quaint cafe. Service was good - ordered food on website and it was ready when I arrived. Food was average - ordered sausage egg and cheese on plain bagel, pork roll egg and cheese on plain bagel, medium coffee. Would have preferred toasted bagel but website doesn't give you option to request modifications. I wanted to order a skinny cappuccino but they only offer whole milk. Coffee was meh - ended up throwing it away. read more

Came to Driftaway Cafe on a Saturday morning. The atmosphere was great. Coffee was decent, but I had to wait for 45 minutes for my bacon egg and cheese on a bagel to be prepared. Didn't expect to wait that long. I wish I've known in advance. read more

This is a great little spot to just relax with a cup of coffee in the morning. I like to visit on a day off from work during the week when it is not busy and my daughter is in school. A little me time. They have a great selection of handcrafted coffees and teas. They have several food options and bakery items as well. However, I always get the same sandwich, Pork Roll Egg and Cheese on a kasier roll. Delicious!! I do switch up the coffee based on what yummy specials they have on the menu. A huge open porch and plenty of rocking chairs to just sit back and relax. I always have my Kindle on me and enjoy my book and coffee while rocking away. I especially love to sit on the porch with a hot coffee in the fall and enjoy the gentle breeze and the ever changing colorful fall foliage. Take some me time and go sit and relax. read more

Nice place to stop for a really good cup of coffee. The pastry was good. Weather permitting you can enjoy your food outside on the porch. As an added bonus they share the same building with Napoleon's Creme Puffery which was also really good. read more

matcha was the worst matcha i've ever had. it was so overly sweet that the entire cup just tasted like sugar. It didn't taste anything like matcha and went straight in the trash. A lot of people seemed to be getting the breakfast food, so i'd come back and try the food but the matcha was a no go. read more

One of my two favorite coffee shops in the area. The beans they roast or use are unique, and it tastes amazing. The service is really good. I never have any problems when I come in for my orders. I like the vibe the place gives off. I'd highly recommend them!! read more

Had the pleasure of visiting this charming cafe that not only offers yummy coffee options but also delicious sandwiches and healthy smoothies. Loved the cute front porch style of this old farmhouse setting to enjoy a moment away from it all. Highly recommend! The owners also are a treat. So gracious and happy to make the experience top notch. read more

How adorable! What a great use of this porch. I've come to this location some time ago for the business next door and was completely turn off and away. What a waste, I could have been enjoying yummy coffee and treats all this time. I've tried their danishes and sandwiches and only heard about the avocado toast which was meh. (But person was still willing to try it again). It's so close to my office and the people at the window have been nothing short of friendly and vibrant with their willingness to help. No complaints from me. I just cannot wait for the weather to break to enjoy a cup of coffee on the porch since the inside continues to be closed. read more

Variety of flavors and love the ambience I thought it was a house at first but I love cafes that are their own and the breakfast sandwich was really good! read more

They have online ordering and a walk-up window. They take credit cards. I feel like that's still harder to come by in this area than in other regions. So Driftaway gets stars for that. I was looking for a quick breakfast before an early morning appointment in the area, and I didn't want Starbucks, Wawa, or Dunkin. I was pleased to find Driftaway on Yelp. Food and drinks are made to order. There's a big porch if you want to eat there. My breakfast sandwich was exactly what I ordered. I got a silly, sweet espresso drink because why not? Staff were friendly and were definitely hustling at 7:30 in the morning, managing walk-up orders and online orders. read more

This place is amazing. 5 out of 5. One of the best bagels I have ever had. Got an everything bagel with cream cheese. The bagel was soft and crunchy in all the right places. Also got the pineapple strawberry smoothie which was delicious. Definitely coming back here again read more

Great place for coffee, bagels and pastries. Relax outside on the porch in a rocking chair.

I absolutely love Driftaway. I'm sad I had not found them sooner. Ever since finding them, I find myself ordering coffee drinks about 5 days a week. Staff is super friendly and they make amazing drinks. Their breakfast croissant sandwich is the best I've ever had. read more

im gonna be honest: The food isn't all that but you know what was? The DRINKS. I'm obsessed with the strawberry matcha and their refreshers as well. Serves as a great alternative to Starbucks as well in case you're boycotting them like i am :) read more
