The bent spoon always commands that kind of line and is always worth the wait. In addition to their rotating flavors, they also have pints for sale, some baked goods, and even some hot chocolate (in the colder months)! The ice cream itself is perfectly rich and creamy, with a great consistency. The flavors are always unique, but not unwelcome. I always make a point of trying to stop in whenever I'm in the area. Just don't be deterred by the line: It's worth it.

10 stars! This place has consistently been one of the best ice cream shops I've ever been to. Even…read moreon a relatively cold spring evening there was a line that stretched halfway down the block. The shop itself is very small with extremely limited seats (if any) so plan to walk around town while you enjoy your ice cream. They have their usual standard flavors, and several seasonal ones that rotate. They allow samples so I'd recommend trying out their rotating flavors even if it sounds like something you normally wouldn't go for. They can make just about anything taste good!

Modern and chic bakery located right in downtown Princeton, just steps from Princeton University…read more The space feels inviting with a wide range of both sweet and savory pastries, plus plenty of full-size cake options. I tried the fig and brie pastry, which turned out to be much sweeter than expected -- the brie flavor was almost missing, and it lacked the salty balance I hoped for. The spinach feta pastry was better, with a nice crisp texture and good flavor overall. The two came to about $10. Cakes are available in full sizes, ranging from $40-$60, and they also serve coffee to pair with your pastries. A nice spot to stop by if you're in the area, especially for cake lovers.

In all my many visits to Princeton, I somehow have not visited Rojo for a caffeine pick me up. I…read morewas on the hunt for a new-to-me cafe where I could get an iced latte and get some work done. Yelp brought me right to Rojo's! I double checked that they had public wifi before ordering and then found a spot along the window to sit. They have a simple menu with everything you'd want from the basics to a few seasonal drinks, but I stuck with my go to oat milk latte. What's to love: -The staff was friendly and kind and my iced latte came out super quick. -There isn't too much seating, but what they have they made cozy and perfect for person to sit, hang out, chat with friends, etc. -My iced latte was pretty good! Good to know before you go: The wifi was terrible, unfortunately. I had to pack up and find another place to work because I could just not get any sort of internet. That, plus there being no bathroom makes this a less than ideal spot for remote workers/students looking to hunker down. They are right on Palmer Square (next door to Bent Spoon) and would be the ideal spot to grab a drink and sit outside.

I got the Far East Salad, one of my recent faves, and an iced matcha latte and took a seat on their little wall of stairs. -Wifi was strong -Matcha latte was refreshing and delicious -Far East salad was soooo good! I love the crunch broccoli, the flavorful tofu, the dressing. If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend. The team is friendly and fast and brings the food right over to you. I have always been a huge Alfalfa fan so I can safely say you will love them.
