How prettyyy. The early afternoon light spills into the room. What a vibe with the quaint jazz in the background. It's too bad they close so early in the afternoons. There's a little outside bench as well. Absolutely adorable space. Pumpkin Spice Latte hot 4/5 I'll have to find time to come back for that matcha yuzu. read more

Early Bird Coffee & More - Inside - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cresskill, New Jersey

Another local café in the books! Early Bird Coffee is tucked away in a small plaza in Cresskill, NJ. It has the perfect atmosphere to work in. There's wifi, outlets, and plenty of comfortable indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of plants and natural lighting, creating a cozy and calm aura. I was able to stay here for a few hours doing work and sipping on my drinks. In addition to drinks, they also sell pastries and sandwiches. It was my first time here and the employee was very helpful and welcoming. I ordered: Matcha Cucumber ($7) - I'm a matcha lover and this drink did it justice. It reminds me of a mojito with a slightly earthy aftertaste. Good choice for those who want something refreshing that isn't sweet. Cold Brew ($5) - An okay drink, it wasn't the best I've had. It wasn't as smooth and sweet. I really wish they could stay open for a bit later, maybe until 5 or 6 pm. Next time I'll try their food and more of their matcha drinks! read more

Coffee is great. There is outdoor seating and parking. The place is cozy and looks like a popular spot with students studying for exam. I also like that they had a community board with information about a local camp and other small businesses. The reason for the low rating was service. I asked if they had anything gluten free and was no. I tried to see if there are other things I could have and the person at the register seemed annoyed. I asked for napkins, I got a look. The coffee shops that I usually go to are like little communities where everyone is all about getting to know each other and helping one another - and it has to start from the staff. read more

I came here on a Sunday afternoon to work. It's a small place, so there are not many tables, but they have WiFi and outlets. The cafe is covered in real plants. The servers were kind and friendly and you could tell the barista was passionate about the art of coffee. The food and drinks were great: * Matcha Yuzu - 10/10 - The matcha flavor is not strong and earthy, so it's perfect for non matcha lovers. The yuzu syrup adds a nice brightness of flavor, and the addition of the sparkling water makes the drink extra refreshing. I saw the barista hand whip the matcha too. * Cortado - 8/10 - I'm not a coffee drinker, so take this review with a grain of salt. This drink is pretty strong since it's equal parts espresso and milk, but I liked the flavor of the beans. * Chocolate Croissant - 8.5/10 - The pastry was buttery, flakey and light. I wish there was a bit more chocolate tho because only 1/3 of the bites had chocolate. Overall, I would definitely come again for the vibes and food. I want to try their hot food options next time. read more

A new place in Cresskill. Highly recommended by a dear friend who lives in Cresskil, and who frequents this cafe probably every week!!!!! We've tried most of the sandwich & panini selection - i.e. not too many hahaha, and they are delicately crafted, not too overwhelming, and very fresh. The presence of La Marzocco was convincing enough to confidently order cortados and drip coffees. Their drip coffee is sooo good. Try their croissant !!!! Especially warm in the morning !!!!! read more

I enjoyed my pumpkin spice coffee from here! It is decorated so nicely and the staff was very pleasant! Personal opinion : it is quite expensive for a single cup of coffee. My latte was $6 and that's with regular milk and a small size. My sisters matcha $6.13. Again personal opinion so not sure if this would ever be a daily or weekly spot for me personally . Overall a pleasant experience and seems like it would be a nice cozy spot to do work at. read more

It's a great neighborhood spot with a nice big parking lot. The person behind the counter was named Carlos he was great, he was super friendly and welcoming. I asked him about the display case and he mentioned they make their pastries daily. The food: Matcha Cucumber- I am not the biggest coffee person because it makes me jittery so I asked if I should get the matcha lemonade or the matcha cucumber? He said you should get the matcha cucumber, omg it really reminded me of drinking a virgin mojito. It was so refreshing and not too sweet. I think this was great because it felt healthy and it would be great to relax with at the shop or it would be perfect for a picnic or a nice drink to have on a nice hot day. read more

Omgggg the prosciutto Sando was just made to perfection!! The ciabatta was crunchy and the mozzarella with the olives just complimented each other so well.

First time going after looking for a spot to do some homework and get a latte and bite! Ample seating and very nice ambiance. Carlos was working (alone!) and it was pretty busy, lots of seats taken and my food and drink came out very fast and delicious! Really good customer service. Loved that the warm drinks and food came on these ceramic plates and cups. The tumeric latte was exactly what I needed and the egg sando on croissant was sooo yummy. Definitely will be coming back and telling friends and family about this place! Also got the Matcha cucumber and it was like nothing I've had before! I love everything matcha and this sounded very enticing im so glad I tried it. Can't wait to come back read more

The salmon sandwich was awesome, and my friend ordered the avocado toast, which looked pretty fulfilling and fresh. Drip coffee was good. It has very cozy and earthy vibes inside as the interior and the bathroom is clean. Service there was very good and tentative. read more

I will never go back to this café ever again. The owner does not make you feel welcome. He has a nasty demeanor. There are way too many other great cafés in Cresskill. Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! read more

Went to Early Bird Coffee for the first time today and loved the interior and cozy vibes. Had their avocado toast and the matcha yuzu. The avocado toast was simple but tasty and can't go wrong with Balthazar bread. The Matcha yuzu was the highlight for me - absolutely refreshing and delicious!! I will be back!! read more

The matcha latte was excellent. The lemon pound cake had a proper natural lemon taste and not too cloyingly sweet. Music selection was excellent and very nostalgic. And a very laidback relaxed atmosphere. I would recommend this small cafe. read more

Very attentive staff and excellent coffee but the pastries make it unsurpassed as a whole. I tried the almond crossiant, cinnamon roll and lemon loaf. All were phenomenal. If you like a well baked pastry, you will be addicted. The outdoor seating is adorable too. read more
