Outside of the coffee shop
Amari E.

I loved studying here! It was a cozy and mostly quiet coffee shop in such a great neighborhood. What I assume was the owner and her workers were very kind and super helpful navigating the menu and what I should get. I ended up getting a banana nut muffin, which was cooked nicely with a nice crunch on top. I did not get to finish it because I was full from eating breakfast at home, but I enjoyed it all the same. They have great wifi and great seats to get work done.

Good vibes :)

Very cute chic cozy coffee shop! It has such good vibes, such a convenient location. Friendly staff and PLENTY of options when it comes to baked goods (gluten free options available), cold pressed juices, drinks and food! I had the egg and cheese sandwich On a Portuguese croissant which was delicious, perfectly cheesy and fluffy eggs on a decadent slightly sweet croissant with an oat milk latte which was delish. And we also had the Brazilian panini, great options for a hot pressed sandwich which hit the spot with a pink lemonade. Check this spot out! It's a great spot.

Coffee and coconut cream pastry
Chris M.

I didn't realize this was a Portuguese place until they made my coffee. I ordered a pastry and a small coffee with milk. They heated up the milk with the steamer. The coffee was too hot for me. It was good but too hot hence a reduction in one star. The pastry was good. It had coconut in it but I think Just flavor and not flakes. There were so many choices of desserts to eat. The service was good and didn't rush me and brought my food to my table. The ambiance is that of a quaint coffee shop. I would come back but let them know not to heat up the milk. I recommend this place.

I want to rave about the vibe, the ambiance and of course the cappuccino and the natas. It's such a comfy space and you feel so welcome. I'm so glad this little Portuguese coffee shop has become a neighborhood favorite, though it's down the block from a Starbucks! Skip Starbucks and go to Serra Doce!

Cute little coffee shop in downtown Summit. Really stumbled on this place as we were intending on going to the Diner. Open space and we'll lit upon entering. The servers were both very helpful. The sandwich was freshly made and flavorful. Curious about using oregano, would've been better with basil. But that's what everyone does...lol. Not disappointed at all. I would certainly go back when in the area. Field goal for the lead!

baked goods
Jennifer A.

this place is very cute with great decor & a great atmosphere. lots of room to sit and do work or meet up with a friend for a coffee date. i went in for the first time today & just ordered a decaf iced coffee with almond milk & it was very watered down. i pass this coffee shop constantly & it's been on my list to go in for a while. i really wanted to love it here but i can't love a coffee shop just for their ambiance, they need to have good coffee too! i'm sure their hot coffees are great, but i wouldn't recommend iced. however, their baked goods looked v good!

Nice spot, lots of seating, friendly service. Typical coffee shop offerings, prices are in line with other local shops. The Golden Latte was a big hit -- turmeric, ginger, cinnamon and oat milk.

Matcha latte, coconut latte, peach latte
Vi T.

Such a pretty coffee shop. The service was also nice! The drinks were a bit too sweet for me and the matcha wasn't as strong as I like it to be. The drinks were all 3/5 for me

Interior

Review is for atmosphere. I work from home and found they're a quiet place with a great interior that's very instagrammable. Got a drip coffee and it was good, along with a macaroon, which was fresh. Friendly service with plenty of space.

The hot chocolate is actually really good hot chocolate and not like the liquid charcoal served in most cafes. The food is so good and very well made. Also, the couches are so comfortable and the ambience is really lovely.

Matcha latte
Xavira H.

It's been so long since I've have a good matcha latte from a cafe. Serra Doce hit the nail on perfecting that. In addition I got the pasteis de nata (delicious). This cafe is amazing and worth visiting if you want to work, get homework done, etc. Ambiance is amazing.

Egg tart , matcha latte
Minh Minh P.

Great music and vibe. The egg tarts and matcha latte is amazing. Definitely coming back!

Sausage with mozzarella and gravy
Scott S.

Stopped in for breakfast with my Daughter this past weekend and tried their breakfast sandwiches. Outstanding flavor and made fresh and served with a smile by the friendly ladies there. I got the Portuguese sausage with mozzarella and gravy made in a pressed grill. So flavorful and just so damn good. My Daughter had the ham, mozzarella and tomato sandwich prepared similarly and she really liked it. Coffee was delicious. We had natas (egg tarts). Which were heated up and fantastic. Got some sweets to bring home: coconut Natas; Portuguese donut; and Portuguese coconut sweet bread. All yummy although I prefer the egg tart over the coconut. Give this place a try. I'm coming back soon!

This has been my go-to coffee shop every weekend for the last couple of years. To put it simply,…read moretheir coffee is fantastic. Specifically, their cold brew which is extremely smooth and strong, and in my opinion you don't even need to put anything in it unless you really want something sweet, although why would you get a cold brew if that's the case lol. Also packs quite a bit of caffeine so you'll be good for the rest of the day. Their pastries are pretty solid as well, although a bit on the pricier side. The cafe itself is on the smaller side but still an ample amount of seating. It's excellent for meeting with a friend, however the tables are rather small so it is less study friendly unless you manage to snag one of the bigger tables by the entrance. Which is admittedly pretty tough to do unless you get here right when it opens or catch a lucky break when someone leaves - I speak from experience. That said, it's overall a pretty solid spot to get work done. Parking in downtown Summit is a pain in general, I usually just park in the lot and walk over. Limit is at 5 hours and you will have to walk back if you want to extend it. There might be parking available by the cafe, but I'm personally less confident on how long you can to stay before getting ticketed/booted, so do so at your own risk.

Tried this coffee spot twice. The first time, the staff wasn't very warm or helpful. When I asked…read morefor recommendations, I was just told to check the menu. I ordered the coconut coffee which was okay, just a bit too sweet for my taste. The second time around, I looked over the menu ahead of time and tried a matcha. It was decent, but again a little sweeter than I personally prefer.

Fueling Up on Springfield Ave…read more Stopped by Gregorys Coffee - Summit on Springfield Ave in downtown Summit with a friend on a Sunday evening for a quick grab-and-go coffee. We came right before closing, and even while they were winding down, the space felt clean, cozy, and welcoming. I ordered a small vanilla protein cold brew ($8) through the InKind app for easy pickup -- it hit the spot. It wasn't busy when we stopped in, but being right downtown, I can easily see this being a popular stop during peak hours. It's a great place for fueling up before hitting the local shops -- or recharging after. There are tables, chairs, and outlets available if you're planning to stay and get some work done, though we were just grabbing and going. We lucked out with street parking, but I imagine it depends on timing. Friendly staff, smooth ordering, and a cozy vibe. It's on the pricier side, but I'd still come back for another fuel-up.

The drink kinda tasted like a brown sugar, which I loved! 10/10 Unfortunately the matcha wasn't the best, it was very watered down with too much oat-milk. No taste to it at all. Service was okay, I greeted first & wasn't a word said to me. More like of what do you want & that's it. Wasn't so welcoming. Ambiance is pretty chill, you can sit there of course & be able to work / study. Had to give it a 3 start for the service & matcha.. Probably wouldn't come back to this location exact.

It was a delight to have his return to town at Mondo and later across Springfield Ave to the market place at Wine List. I simply require a respectable cuppa joe in the morning - no fancy artwork on a cappuccino or a sugary beverage. I like the daily pot so that my taste buds get varied perks, especially Ahree special blend or Java on Monday mornings. Many come in to buy by the pound, including the upscale Kona - or order online. My drill 4-5 times a week is to go in and chatter with wine, cheese chocolate & flower folks. Like the nearby brewery, the staff & regulars there create a Cheers-like atmosphere. This week marks Ahree's 35th anniversary in the coffee business & is offering a free cup of java daily !!

Had no…read moreexpectations because, like I said, it was cold, they were the closest place to take shelter and I saw a coffee bar. Anyway, since then I've been back 3 more times; once for breakfast and twice for brunch. And while I'm confessing, the two times for lunch were on subsequent days. Yeah, they're that good. Actually, their chicken salad on a croissant is the best I've ever had and in my advanced years I've had a crapload of chicken salad.

Then there's a seating area when you can eat, served by a friendly attentive staff and an adjacent boutique area where you can purchase housewares, clothing and other cool stuff. I'm not in Maplewood all that often, generally when I'm shopping at the equally awesome City Workshop but when I do, I always make sure to hit up Perch.

The wall frames and Christmas decorations are gorgeous and there are tables, with comfortable seating, on one end of the Cafe. I ordered the following: Matcha White Hot Chocolate (a traditional matcha latte blended with white chocolate sauce), Snickerdoodle Latte (A traditional latte, blended with brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla syrup). Both of these were served at the perfect temperature, were richly creamy, and served in large mugs. I also ordered a Carrot Cake Muffin and it was very good. It was moist, each forkful had a decent amount of walnuts, and the frosting was exquisite. Once you're finished with your food, don't forget to stroll through the entire cafe. You'll probably find something that will pique your interest. Either way, try to make time to enjoy it all.
