While on the way to the bookstore, we came across this place and it looked amazing from the outside, so we decided to check it out... The store has a small coffee shop inside, offering both food and drinks. A large bakery assortment and several savory options like quiche fill the showcase. Freshly baked cakes, pies, pastries, and other goodies line the display cases and look very inviting... The shop also has a retail section with Boonton-themed T-shirts, soaps, and seasonal décor items (this time, Christmas décor was on display). The place has a really nice vibe. I ordered a hazelnut coffee with a slice of banana cake and enjoyed my time here... read more

So I enter this store to get some work done. I wasn't aware that food and drinks weren't allowed. Within 5 minutes the owner approaches me says "Can I help you? what do we got going on here?" Then told me I couldn't bring anything in and then walked off to continue his conversation with his buddy. Now I respect policies but this dude is something else. Theres a lot of ways to approach the situation and the way this old guy handled it, was not it. He thinks he's some sort of marshall and has no concept of how to talk to people even though he's dealt with the community for years. If you want to try bringing in your stuff, you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. Im sure their overall service is good but he needs a complete attitude adjustment or retire. read more

Don't sleep on this place. I didn't stop in for a long time just because their name was strange and I thought they were more of a gift shop, but their coffee is the bomb. Their iced coffee flavors change daily, come with a big coffee ice cube (LOVE that), and a large is only $3.75 (cash). You can't beat that in this area! I also really like the coffee beans they sell (and will grind for you); I've gotten a few bags of a few different kinds, but they have a monthly coffee club membership available for their beans, too, which is cool. 4 stars only because the pastry I had there wasn't the greatest/didn't taste super fresh. But their iced coffee is ALWAYS on point, and the owner is super friendly. read more

My husband and I and two friends went to Heavenly Temptations for lunch today. The food was excellent. The prices were very reasonable. And of course, being surrounded by tempting chocolates and baked goods, I had to buy some, all of which were excellent. The atmosphere was warm and friendly, and the staff were all friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Great place. read more

Established in 1989, Heavenly Temptations has a business model that employs the internet, as well as, a brick & mortar construct to produce an attractive cafe & gift shop atmosphere while capitalizing on the power of the internet. Have you ever dreamed about what a coffee shop should be like. Of course it should have lots of varieties of coffees,cappuccinos and teas. It should offer to grind your coffee. As for treats it should offer homemade chocolates, fudge quiche, pies, soups, raisin scones and almond biscuits. How about a nice place to sit and recharge your electronics with free WiFi? Friendly owners would be nice and welcome dogs, well that would be a plus. Yes, it should be open 7 days a week for breakfast and lunch. If, you are ever in Boonton, Heavenly Temptations is your place. Aside from coffee & teas, you can buy gift themed cards, baskets, unique gifts, mylar balloons, T-shirts and my favorite homemade fudge. read more

A very warm and casual place with coffee, food, knickknacks, T-shirts, etc. Really nice. I would not hesitate to go back. I opted for a dark roast, which I usually drink, and there's was great. A great little excursion in Boonton. read more

Adorable old school candy shop with a very unique retail area, perfect for grabbing the cutest gift with some homemade candy or fudge. Definitely will return to try the homemade soup. read more

My wife and I stopped in after dropping our daughter at school for a light breakfast and coffee. The atmosphere was pleasant and inviting and the service was exemplary. We ordered quiche, oatmeal, an Americana and macchiato. Everything was prepared well and served with a smile. There were a number of Knick knacks as well as gifts available to browse and purchase including soaps, cards, balloons, etc. The website does not do this store justice. Very nice and will certainly return. read more

This is a gooooood iced coffee! Made with coffee ice cubes too ~ that's doing it right! YUM! Got the chocolate raspberry flavor, which is roasted in to the bean, as opposed to a flavored sugary syrup. Stop here - you won't be disappointed!!!! A+!! read more

Heavenly Temptations - a drink in a plastic cup with a straw - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Boonton, New Jersey

We stopped in here one night after stuffing ourselves full of sushi across the street. We'd never been in here before so we were pretty intrigued by all the cool knock knocks, the coffee bar and the FUDGE! They really do have some cool items in here and we bought a couple "sayings" for my daughter to hang in her dorm room. The flavored coffee we got was actually quite delicious and the fudge...ohhh the fudge was really quite perfect. We don't find ourselves in this area a whole lot, but the next time I'm here I'm stopping back in for some more coffee and fudge...diet be damned! read more

This is the perfect spot to get a cup of coffee or tea, a delicious treat or even a light meal. It's bright and airy with plenty of table searing so it's a great place to get a little work done too. There are also a lot of nice gift items available. read more

Heavenly temptations is a delightful coffee shop that I have frequented for many many years (even back when it was located under the Holmes Library). The store is adorable with small town charm and super friendly staff. In addition to beverages (coffees, teas, hot chocolate, white hot chocolate, 1/2 priced milk shakes in the summer, etc), I am a huge fan of the to-die-for fudge and the peanut butter pie. The best part is the comfy couch and free wi-fi, which makes for a great work or meeting environment if you need a break from a traditional office. read more

I'm always in/around Boonton & never had the opportunity to go in.. I went for the first time two weeks ago and have been back three times already! Great little store with delicious coffee, hot chocolate & lattes.. Nice variety of chocolates (their fudge and chocolate covered pretzels are delicious). read more

Stopped in for coffee and quiche. Great little place, food and service both excellent.

I was recently in Boonton and was happy when I spotted a coffee shop. This place is more than a coffee shop and that's good and bad depending on who you are. After spending a little time inside, I think of it more as a store that happens to also sell coffee and not vice versa. I ordered two drinks...mocha lattes with skim milk and no whip. What did the girl behind the counter make us? Two mocha lattes with lots of whip, chocolate syrup and no flavor. There was no one else in the store and she asked me twice how I wanted the drinks made. Screwing up a simple order will result in a low rating on Yelp. Sorry, there is just no way around that. The space itself is in a really cool old building and has the potential to be a really hip coffee place, but not with bad service and extremely mediocre (at best) coffee it's just not going to happen. Trust me, I know how hard it is to make a coffee shop profitable, but don't mix a Hallmark type of shop and a coffee joint into one business and hire help that could never refer to themselves as a Barista...it's just uncool. Pass! read more

Great location, great coffee. Love the area for the local chocolates and treats! This place was my childhood in a nutshell. read more

Thank you, Jackie and Ann, for making my gift basket experience a resounding success. I called Heavenly Temptations to order a birthday gift basket for a friend. Jackie took my call and walked me through the entire process. She did a fantastic job making sure she had the necessary information and patiently listened to my specific requests. Ann provided helpful correspondence via email. The gift basket arrived on my time and my friend was quite happy. Thank you, Jackie and Ann, for your outstanding communication and service. read more

This place is one of the few friendly places in NJ. The staff is helpful and nice. The treats are very yummy. I tried a sandwich once and that was good too. They also have warm drinks for cold days, and really good homemade fudge. In the back corner are a couch and couple of chairs, and in the front are a handful of small tables, plus the counter facing out the window. I wish this place were open more in the evenings. Part of it is also a store, with food and other gift items. I recommend it. Just make sure you are nice when you are inside. read more

Wow! The Chocoholic's Choice power frappe was so chocolately and delicious! The Strawberry Slam was sweet and refreshing, especially on a hot day. You can tell they were made with fresh ingredients. As an added treat, the homemade ricotta cookies tasted exactly like something my grandmother made. Cute selection of gifts as well. Need to come back and try the fudge next time! read more

Heavenly temptations has been my favorite and trusted coffee, breakfast, lunch, card, gift resource for over 16 years. Not to mention, every time the power goes out, they allow me to sit here all day recharging electronics and using their wifi! I appreciate the variety of this shop and quality of food, coffee, treats, along with friendly service. I don't know the owner on a personal level, but from interaction with her and watching how she puts so much effort into merchandising mix, staffing and kindness toward customers, she is a great lady. My favorites- cappuccino, vegetable quiche, soups, raisin scones, almond biscotti, and chocolates. Gift and card selection have gotten me out of many last minute gift needs! Thank you for being so consistent Heavenly crew. I really appreciate you guys and the fact that you are an independent neighborhood store. read more

I adore independent coffee shops... These folks have great coffee, same price as Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks, great HOME MADE snacks and what not. VERY friendly staff, they always make time to be kind. Just tried their home made veggie rice soup, it was excellent! Go here and support a great local business, :) read more

Heavenly Temptations will truly tempt you to ascend to the celestial skies. The coffee and hot cocoa are divine, and the wait staff friendly. The layout is a bit odd as it's just as much of a card and gift store as much as a cafe. A lot of the gifts are hokey like those that you'd find in a tacky tourist trap in any small town with its "life is good" brand t-shirts and inspirational magnets. Seating is limited, but it makes it nice and quiet - unlike S'bucks. read more

This place is cute and adds a nice little charm to Main St. Their coffee is pretty good and I do appreciate that they offer flavored decaf. I've purchased a few gifts here as they carry "Life is Good" products so that makes life easy for me. A lot of the other stuff they carry isn't of interest to me, handbags, high end soap, quirky jewelry--but overall I like the small time mom and pop feel that is has. I've never had their baked goods but some people have said they're good so maybe I'll try someday. read more

It's nice to have a place like this in town. They have a large variety of coffee that they will grind up for you, along with a coffee club. What draws me back though, is their daily offerings of quiche and soup. Delicious! read more

Was amazed to see they are celebrating 25 years in business. Was there when they opened ...love the coffee love the snacks especially the fresh popovers! Super offerings including great fudge. Great gifts. fabulous customer service and Ann is absolutely the best ever in remembering your name! read more

Cutest coffee/ gift boutique ever. Employees are super nice. Coffee is good and cookies are amazing! They have a good amount of cool uncommon items for gifts. They also have a nice food section with local products like honey. Our favorite weekend morning activity is to get coffee and a snack here then walk down to the park behind Main Street. read more

I visited today. Not too busy on a Saturday early afternoon. Shop was clean, including the restroom, service was quick and friendly and the peanut butter pie was delicious. They have a nice gift shop and a nice selection of chocolate covered pretzels/candy on display. Fudge too! Most important to me was that they had regular (Tetley) hot tea, not just Earl Grey or English Breakfast. Plenty of seating so you can sit and relax. read more

Nice place. Some unusual gift items. Great coffee. Plan to go back for lunch at some point. The staff was very friendly.

What a wonderful place!!! Genuine customer service! Amazing apple pie and delicious chocolates! They freeze coffee in ice cube trays for the iced coffee, so when the ice melts it doesn't make your coffee watery! What a fabulous idea!!! read more

Great place... I especially like the coffee and assortment of food. It looks like they recently added toys for kids. It's really a convenient, local establishment and I am happy to spend my money locally. The employees are very friendly too. read more

Yummy sweets and chocolate. I usually get their whole coffee. I haven't purchased their food or any of their cooked products. It's cute local place with gifts and souvenirs. It's a nice atmosphere and they welcome dogs! The whole town is pleasant because it's very dog friendly. That's reflected very well at heavenly temptations. read more

I'm new to Boonton and have slowly moved through town trying out the food and going into stores. I was a little surprised by this place. Maybe my expectations were too high from the reviews or what the place looks like from the outside...I don't know. But I wasn't that impressed - not even remotely. The chocolate layer cake was stale - the icing tasted like it was sitting there for awhile. The peanut butter pie was fine but I've had better. The quiche had no taste at all - didn't taste egg or ham or anything...very odd for food not to have a taste. Anyway, when I went to pay for my stuff I was *shocked* by the price. Lunch and a piece of cake for two people was $25. Seriously? The quiche was small and didn't even come with a side salad. Oh, and the store was cute but nothing special and everyone was nice but - that's all I could say. Yep, I won't be back - what could I have missed? read more

i was in booton a few weeks ago and i happend to be driving by and saw a sign for heavenly temptations. Well you would think a place called HEAVENLY would be HEAVENLY but unfortunately i was quite wrong. first of all i asked the staff member for an iced coffee light and sweet, a tunafish sandwich, a bowl of soup, and a slice of quiche....for the next few days for my boyfriend and i. OH HOW I WAS WRONG. first of all the iced coffee had a weird taste like it had been sitting in a fridge for WAY too long...and you don't get your moneys worth for it. it was half coffee and half ice cubes. that dropped a star right there. UGH and the tuna was disgusting...it had a weird CRUST on it...as if it was unproperly held in the fridge. the soup was also unsatisfactory...VERY oiley and unappetizing. i ordered a ham quiche which had MAYBE 1 slice of ham on the bottom....overall i will never reccomend this place to anyone and will not be returning ever again. unless the owner...who seemed in a rush to leave while i was asking questions (be more polite next time maybe??)....unless they make new and FRESH things, im never coming back. read more

I've enjoyed this place for many years. The deserts are all heavenly temptations. I have only one suggestion, you should stay open later on friday and saturday night, and maybe have an open mic night to bring them in. We go here after dinners at the boonton avenue grill read more

Service is great and the soups outstanding. Chai Tea Faboulous! Cappaccino Great! Would be gret to get some low fat ice cream and muffins. More Dark chocolate. A little more Trendy with low fat options. Otherwise a great place to pick up a nice card or something different. Clean and relaxing atmosphere. (Offer stevia for coffee would be good too) Otherwise Specials are Great! read more

A friendly, warm place made so by its employees, where the soups are incredible and the baked goods, even more so.

I needed a last-minute surprise-party gift for friend & found this place online, so I ordered the Gourmet Coffee Gift Basket which was priced at $44.95. As I had to work until 3 hours before the guest of honor was to arrive & the party was 100 miles away, I phoned the order & was told it would be ready in 30 minutes. I arrived at their location an hour later, but it wasn't ready, so I waited about 10 minutes. When tho owner brought it to the counter, she told me the cost with tax was $53.50. I advised her that the advertised price was $44.95, with tax it should have been $48.10. She refused to adjust the price, saying that "she'd look into the online pricing". I offered to pay $50.00 cash, which she also refused. Since I didn't have time to shop elsewhere, I paid & left. But I'd never go back & will relate this experience to friends. read more

what a cute little store! they sell coffee, lunch, pastries, candies and fudge. you can also find little trinkets and walk around the store while you wait for your food. i've had the turkey wrap and it was yummy. i also go in to get a pastry once in a while such as their pumpkin apple streusel muffin or cinnamon coffee cake. the service is also excellent! read more
