I've been here a few times and can't believe I never left a review! I've always had a positive experience here, the baristas are always friendly and welcoming. Especially today (July 17th @ 9:30am) the girl taking orders was very helpful and informative of the drinks and their sweetness levels. I came in wanting to try the banana flambé and asked how sweet it was and she told me it was pretty sweet due to the banana milk already being sweet and asked me if I wanted to try the banana milk first - in so glad she offered! I've been curious about it but didn't want to commit and then dislike it once ordered, needless to say I got the banana flambé latte and it was indeed sweet once mixed all together! It was tasty but too sweet for my preference. My go to is usually the chocolate covered strawberry latte, ordered less sweet of course with their house made almond milk. I love that majority of their milks are house made instead of the commercial junk with added additives, artificial flavors and junk ingredients. I'm not sure if they make their own syrups but that would be an added plus! Try their everything croissant! It's filled with scallion cream cheese and is so delicious! The chili cheese palmier is also a delicious option. Parking is paid street parking, be sure to read the signs so you don't get a ticket for street cleaning. Ambience is laid back. A couple table indoors and out to sit and enjoy your beverage. read more

I really wanted to like this place because I had seen it all over TikTok, but unfortunately it was probably one of the more disappointing matchas I had in NYC. I ordered the strawberry matcha and for the price I was expecting it to be way better. The strawberry didn't add much and the matcha itself was pretty underwhelming. The service also threw me off. We asked the person taking our order what the butterfly pea drink was because we were curious about it and she couldn't really explain it at all. She basically just told us it was blue, which wasn't very helpful when we were trying to decide what to order. The actual coffee shop is really cute inside and I liked the decor, but that was probably the highlight for me. Between the drinks, prices and service, I left pretty disappointed. Definitely would not come back. read more

Forum Coffee - strawberry matcha - Cafes Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Came here for the first time for a matcha saw it in tik tok and was pretty disappointed. The place was super cute inside but would probably not come here again. Service was not great. The girl was taking our order was kinda rude and didn't seem to know much about the products. For example, my friend asked about the butterfly pea matcha and the girl didn't even know what it was and then proceeded to just say it's blue... I ordered a 20oz (large) matcha with vanilla and it was pretty underwhelming. For a $10 matcha I have had better. read more

Small store with great coffee and flavors to choose from. They make a lot of their own syrups and flavorings which we love. Absolutely delicious we will be going back and we were happy to see they have other locations! read more

Ordered: 16oz Iced Latte (~$6) with Lavender Cold Foam (+$1.25) Aya's take: It seems like Forum Coffee is taking NJ by storm and I wanted to see what the hype was about. I ordered a 16oz Iced Latte and decided to add Lavender Cold Foam for some sweetness and brightness. My order took longer than expected, just to find out the worker "didn't see me there". Anyway, I grabbed my drink and was on my way. The Iced Latte itself was decent - balanced, creamy, bold. The Lavender Cold Foam was lacking in the main ingredient, lavender! It was barely palpable in any sip. It definitely needed to be more prominent. I did like the cold foam which made the latte a bit sweeter and thicker. My experience is like a 3.5 but I rounded up in this case. I may give it another chance but I'm not itching to go back. read more

On my adventure of visiting coffee shops near the office I stopped by this coffee shop as part of my list to try out theirs dirty cha latte with home made oat milk. They had 3 seats and high top table with chairs not busy at all read more

Such an adorable coffee shop. I really like the diversity of flavors and different ideas for drinks which makes it standout from other places. However, I couldn't enjoy my coffee as the roast tasted like dirty water. Couldn't even finish my French toast latte. It was pretty though. Optimistic that their pastries are better because they look great. I'd probably get a tea or matcha from here, but this is sadly a miss on the coffee front. One table for sitting, this is more of an on-the-go spot. read more

Service is slow but the coffee makes up for it. Banana matcha latte was SOOOO GOOD. Came back next day and they ran out. So I did a banana coffee instead and it was so delicious. Highly recommend but not a spot where you go to get a quick coffee and run. There's only 1 girl and she has so many orders, she needs help y'all. People were leaving bc they didn't want to wait. My wait time was 15 min. There's also no where to sit. Def a local spot for locals that walk or if you work there. read more

Dropped by here on my way to work once I learned that one was being opened near my home. This particular location btw does not have seating, so don't plan to bring your laptop or anything. Grab and go for sure. French toast latte was a delight! Had seen it a bunch on social media and had to try it since this flavor is unique and it was delicious. I love that their drinks are not super sweet so you can taste everything that is in the cup in every sip. Online ordering is available so that is always a plus when you are on the go! read more

I was advised drinks were available in only one size, an "eight-ounce cup." If you order a cappuccino, what this means is that for $5-plus, you will receive a cup of foam with perhaps an ounce of liquid in the bottom. I shrugged it off, but seriously, don't go here. read more

Decent coffee shop, albeit small. A few pastries but no restrooms. Probably best as a grab-and-go.

Wow. I have truly never experienced such horrible customer service before. I stopped by early afternoon on Labor Day and immediately noticed how overwhelmed the man behind the counter was--he appeared to be the only one working, taking orders and making drinks. When it was my turn, I asked for a nitro cold brew. He cut me off with, "What else?" so I continued with my second drink order, an espresso coconut cloud with decaf. He abruptly told me he couldn't make it. I thought he meant it wasn't possible with decaf espresso, so I clarified by asking if they even had decaf espresso. His response was, "Can't make it right now, I have too much other stuff I need to do... I'm the only one here and I have four other meetings to go to," followed by more complaints I didn't catch. At that point, I gave up and just stuck with the cold brew. As he began pouring, the keg ran out halfway through. He groaned, walked to the back, slammed the fridge door, and then loudly shouted "F*CK!" with no regard for customers overhearing. He came back out with a new keg, dropped it on the floor behind the counter, and hooked it up before finishing my drink. Needless to say, I left with one drink instead of two, zero tip, and feeling upset from such an awful interaction. read more

A very friendly place. Crumb came is delicious. the freshly squeezed Orange juice is unbelievable.

We got the matcha coconut cloud and matcha latte with almond milk. The matcha cloud was amazing! We liked that a lot more than the regular matcha latte. The barista was really nice , she offered us to try the coconut water in the coconut cloud. read more

Ordered from here a few times now. Not sure I'm impressed yet. I had one latte that was very tasty, chocolate dipped strawberry. I ordered it the next day again, from the app for pick-up, it was made completely different and tasted not right. I asked them if it was my drink (confirmed) and then walked out and then went back inside to ask again if maybe they gave me the wrong drink. But it was not the same drink I had the day before. I didn't feel they were very nice about it. Recently I ordered the iced black and white latte (just ok but looks delish) and I asked for oat milk, I watched the lady make it. She began with oat milk, ice, espresso and then I watched her pour whole milk into it and then cold foam. Not ideal if you have dairy issues. Fun menu to try but feel their service and drinks making skills is half ok (especially for $11) drinks. read more

Great Coffee and decaf , including friendly Service.The pastries are delicious especially the monkey bread .

Good coffee. Slow service. The real problem : $8 for a large cold brew? Almost 9. That's insane. That's greedy. I paid $20 for 2 coffees and croissant. Never again. read more

I love the Livingston location but not sure what happened here. My coffee was gross.

My favorite coffee in Hoboken. Coffee always consistent-- my favorite is the crème brûlée latte. Baked goods always fresh.

This place has so much potential! Unfortunately my 10$ latte ended up in a garbage can. It was basically a cup of milk with a little bit of not great tasting espresso. Sad. Hope they improve but don't waste ur money read more

Disappointing. I was excited to try it. I ordered a large cannoli oat milk latte and a pastry. The pastry was good (but not $6 worth of good) and the latte ($10) tasted like a plain oat milk latte--which means they either (1) use an imperceptible amount of syrup despite charging you for it, or (2) messed up my order even though I was the only customer the entire time I was there. Either way, I won't be back. read more
