    Interior
    Eric K.

    Great little cafe out of nowhere! I needed a place to get a good quality quick bite and work and this cafe fit the bill! Ordered chicken pesto with roasted red peppers panini and a cup of Joe. Interior is nothing fancy and I noticed that overall tables aren't very clean... because this is literally a one man shop. The owner lady was constantly busy making things! Coffee was rather watery and not too good. My panini took a few minutes but it was solid- good quality and decent quantity with nice flavor of roasted peppers. Only gripe was that I couldn't find a single outlet anywhere so I had to cut my work short at an hour mark... but judging from the space, it probably isn't that kind of cafe anyways... it's likely a lunch spot for ppl who work around the area. So I was ok with that but cafe warriors be warned. Not much of an atmosphere to write about but it was comfortable for its purpose. The lady was super nice and she came over to chat with me briefly when she saw I was working on music. If I ever worked around here, I'd visit once or twice a week for lunch and fresh juice! Prob not coffee though.

    Sometimes, you find a tasty spot to eat in the most unlikeliest of places. Illy coffee and tasty breakfast wraps made on site. With a smile and pleasant service. Nice little cafe to hang in while waiting for a friend or family having a medical procedure in the surgical center it's located in. While my gal was having surgery I grabbed a bite to eat and some iced coffee. Definitely a step up from hospital food. Plenty of seating along with an outside patio area. They also bake their own products here such as cookies, scones, cakes, and other pastries. Many are gluten free too. The owner who also works the counter does it all herself. I saw people come in to make a purchase and they weren't even there to see a doctor. This spot made trekking out to NJ at 6am a bit more reasonable.

    This is the Ferrero Rocher cake!

    Esti's is deceiving. Because it's situated in the lobby of a huge medical complex, it's easy for your first assumption to be that it's just a run of the mill refreshment stand. You couldn't be more wrong. This woman runs a full scale bistro, but because of the price of rents in the area, it's more affordable for her to have her shop in the building as opposed to owning a store front. She makes fresh soups, salads and juice. She grows her own wheat grass. She makes wraps with fresh ingredients, not cold cuts. She also does catering. But her signature are her cakes, cookies and pastries. Carrot cake, shortbread cookies, oatmeal cookies, baklava, cheesecake, etc. My favorite is the Ferrero Rocher cake. So delicious! Give this place a try. You will definitely be satisfied.

    Came here in August 2018, I was looking for coffee in the area other than Dunkin's & found this on Yelp. It's noted to be a cafe within a medical building, so0o it was a bit challenging to be certain of its location. Upon entering the driveway, make a right & park towards the entrance. When you walk in, you'll see Esti's Cafe straight ahead. Instead I got hot cocoa which the barista mentioned she would source her cocoa powder from Germany, therefore is high quality cocoa. It was good that it wasn't that sweet, but I felt it needed more richness. There's lots of snacks available, I didn't have much time to scout out but the menu also included sandwiches, soups & salads. When I'm in the area, I would come back to try something else.

    Esti's Cafe is our favorite for catering our family gatherings/ events. We have ordered catering in the past for our daughter's 1st birthday and 2 of our Xmas parties. All the dishes we have tried are absolutely delicious and the presentation is something to admire. Our guests are amazed with how flavorful (and how beautiful) the food is. You will be left with a lasting impression. Esther is always accommodating to our needs and she goes above and beyond with treating her customers as her top priority. I would recommend you call directly than ordering from the website. There are more options than what is on the site. Here are a few photos of what we have ordered. We are so glad to live nearby!

    Breakfast rap, pecan pie (gluten-free free), banana pudding (gluten free)

    This place is AMAZING! Just had a gluten free breakfast rap that she makes and it was one of the best breakfast I ever had I even got a second one. Huge selection of gluten free food and special drinks. Esti was supper nice! Can't wait for next time!!

    My wife has been coming to this establish for more than 15 years and she is convinced that the…read morequality of the food here has never fallen. To be fair, all she orders is the chicken salad sandwich and she has order nothing else. Today, that changed as we ordered the Apple Cranberry Crisp à la mode along with her Chicken Salad sandwich and that dessert was delicious! It wasn't too sweet and it had me thinking "what kind of apples do they use for this?" It even got reactions from everyone who dined nearby us in the restaurant. So the ambiance was very friendly as while it appeared like they were regulars, they were not because they've never seen the Apple Cranberry Crisp in person. We took our four month old infant and the place was accommodating to that as well. The decor was very traditional but very clean, like you were in the dining room of the golden age of your grandma's house (I hope that makes sense like it does for me). Anyway, I had the NJ Sloppy Joe and that was also delicious - especially with the sweet potato salad that came with it. I also had the cappuccino and the affogato because I had no coffee yet by this point of the day and I had to double down on my espresso intake lol. The Rolling Pin looks like it's been around for the past 75 years and I hope it sticks around for ever. Please give this place a try if you're nearby looking for lunch. You won't forget it!

The place is typically busy, especially packed on weekends. The drinks are pretty dang good, and unique. I've had about half the drinks on their menu now and I've enjoyed them all. Memento Mori is my current favorite, followed by Phoenix Feather. Drinks are not all super sweet or overpowering flavor wise, with a wide range of choices and varying intensities. The pastries are great too, and seem to cycle about half the offerings frequently. Their made to order menu is unique, with the Fat Bee being my regular choice. (Lavender cream, in a croissant, with a honey drizzle, lemon zest, and edible flowers) Thematic music is always playing, and it isnt so loud that you can't have a conversation. They also always seem to know what is playing if you want to listen to it later. Local artisans sell their wares that fit the vibe of the shop, with prints, hair accessories, essential oils, potions, and more; they seem to be very supportive of local creators. The walls are black, decorated with various pinned insects, flowers, and interesting small taxidermy in theme for the place. Furniture is varied and unique, along with a bar seating for 3 persons. With space for single patrons and small groups to find adequate seating assuming the location isnt packed with it being a fairly small space. This is my personal favorite coffee place (if it isnt obviousby now), and a weekly stop even though it is not on my way to other shops I frequent. Very glad they opened up, even though I'm not goth, it is easy to feel at home there. Including to my child, who adores their hot cocoa.

    My partner took me to this shop as an alternative to our usual trip to Starbucks. I was visiting…read morehis neighborhood and he was very excited to show me this place. And rightfully so - this is a very well executed idea for a gothic coffee shop. I was trurly amazed. The line stretched across the whole shop, which spoke to its popularity. I think they were understaffed the day we visited. It was only 3 employees and once of them was a cashier which also made drinks/ food. Stood in line for about 20mins until it was our turn to order. We did not mind the wait actually. It was very bearable with the music in the background and so many things for sale to look at. Once it was our turn my partner ordered a Cemetery Dusk Latte (Tiramisu latte, chocolate ribbons, mascarpone top and chocolate power), and a pineapple danish and coconut flakes. I ordered the Deadly Nightshade (Expresso, Blackberry Vanilla Syrup, Blackberry cold foam and sage), and the Little Lad Croissant which was served with cream and berries (and had cute little flowers for decorations). The shop was packed, but yet we somehow got two seats. There are tables, green couch and red velvet armchairs with a high backs. We sat on the armchairs. Everything was so delicious. I actually gave up drinking coffee, substituting it with matcha, but I decided to make an exception for today. And boy I am glad I did! I never had more delicious coffee. And if I said I did in my previous reviews, please consider that voided haha. Overall great experience! I would definitely come back there instead of going to Starbucks when I'm in the neighborhood.

I don't buy from Starbucks…read moreor Dunkin' (for reasons I won't discuss in this review), especially when there's so many small businesses to choose from and support. The Dell Coffee Co is located on Oradell's bustling Kinderkamack Road. I've driven by it so many times and finally decided to check it out. There's free street parking and a lot in the back. The atmosphere is charming, cozy, and calming. The owner did a great job with the interior design! Lots of plants, earthy tones, wooden furniture, large windows with natural lighting, pillows, and comfortable sofas. They have wifi and outlets, making it an ideal place to work, study, or read in. Seating is a bit limited - there's a communal table that fits six people, three stools at a counter, and three small sofa chairs. I visited on weekday afternoons and didn't have a problem finding a seat. The drink menu has your classic espresso beverages, tea, and cold brew. They have a food menu with sandwiches, wraps, avocado toast, and acai bowls. They also have fresh pastries to choose from like croissant cubes, scones, banana bread, and muffins. The baristas are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. They have a lot of regulars here and you can tell that this is the type of coffee shop that will remember your name and order. I've tried... *Hot Salted Caramel Latte ~$6 - A creamy and comforting drink! The milk to espresso ratio was just right. The espresso was strong and went well with the richness of the caramel. It wasn't too sweet at all - flavors were well balanced and I could taste the hints of sea salt. *Churro Croissant Cube $8.50 - Highly recommend! It's a croissant in the shape of a cube. It's flaky, crispy, and coated with cinnamon and sugar on the outside. The bread was soft, airy, and buttery on the inside. I loved the contrasting textures! *Sugar Cookie Latte ~$7 (vanilla and almond infused espresso with whipped cream and holiday sprinkles on top) - This was more on the sweeter/sugary/milky side, which was fine with me. The cookie flavor was subtle. I would have liked the espresso to be stronger. *Cold Brew $4.50 - Not a fan. The brew was too bitter and tasted watered down. I added milk and sugar, but that didn't help. *Egg Salad Sandwich $10 (tomato, lettuce, egg salad on sourdough bread) - The bread had a crunchy crust with a chewy interior. It had a tangy flavor to it, which I enjoyed. The egg salad was too salty. Overall, the sandwich was decent, but not great. It's small for the price; I don't think I'd pay $10 for it again. Keep supporting your local coffee shops!
