    Starbucks in Ridgewood is where teeny boppers go to feel grown up. They sip macchiato's, text and photograph each other and finger their iPhones and iPads like lovers, seemingly oblivious to the larger world in which they live. It's a marketing dream -- selling the "culture of stuff" to i-Gen's, whose self esteem is built largely on labels and more stuff. Starbucks and Apple: perfect together! I remember my adolescence in the West Village -- differently. Back then, places like Cafe Wha? and other dimly lit rathskellers, that have long since faded into the good night, helped us BECOME older and wiser. The "scene" motivated many of us towards independent thought and self-reliance; it was a road map on how to own and make your future. We sipped grenadine or coffee, made eye contact with other humans over chess boards or card games or debated something Kerouac or Ginsburg said or wrote. We listened to poetry or random players do jazz. We dreamed big. Some of us dropped out -- never to be heard from again. Others -- realized their dreams. We were tuned in and turned on. We invented cool... We distrusted anyone over 30 (turns out, for good reason). And I can't say for sure, but I sure hope the youngins at this Starbucks get more wisdom here than just a daily dose of caffeine and cool. In a fiercely competitive global economy that chews up Millennials and spits out what's left like chaff, the i-Gens will need something more substantial than the "culture of stuff" to get what they want. Meanwhile, whatever your age, you can still get a decent cup of coffee at Starbucks (make mine a double red-eye please with a slab of lemon pound cake).

    Each time I come to this Starbucks I already know I will have a good day. The baristas are all super friendly and courteous. They always get my order right and although there is always a line I'm never left waiting for more than 5 minutes. We all know Starbucks isn't the cheapest coffee which is why I expect to get my moneys worth, and I know I won't disappointed when I come to this particular Starbucks. Parking is pretty convenient during the mornings, street parking of course so sometimes you aren't so lucky, also not too sure about the afternoons but I know they also have a parking lot in the back entrance. They also have outdoor seating during the summer & spring which is great. There is handful of tables inside as well if you have to get work done or just want to relax & enjoy your drink! My favorite drinks are the green tea latte & the dirty vanilla chai, definitely must try!

    This cozy little starbucks is slightly small for the traffic it received on a saturday morning. However, clean environment and friendly staff puts it above average for a starbucks. Of course, it helps to provide me a good sample of red velvet cupcake for my tour. I will copy and paste my review for reference. Ridgewood Coffee Company ____________________________ The red velvet cupcake wasn't the most appealing, but it's one of the best I have ever tasted. The frosting was very good, I think I tasted some expresso in it. The cake was moist and flavorful. It's just sweet enough for my taste. This is the best of the bunch. Starbucks ____________________________ The seasonal red velvet cupcake had the best frosting (cream cheese based). The cake was more than decent. However, Starbuck's quality control on the cupcake is just a bit more than decent. I'm pretty sure some stores keep it for more than the 2 day limit, and the cake can get stale and dry. Cupcakes by Carousel ____________________________ The cupcake was better than the avg starbucks cupcakes. So it tastes as good as 80% of the starbucks cupcakes out there (due to the mass produced QA I assume) The frosting was alright. It wasn't anything spetacular. Crumbs ____________________________ The most presentable cupcake of the bunch. The frosting was supar....probably a sacrifice that needed to be made to make it look so pretty. The cupcake was downright disgraceful. I wouldn't feed that to my dog. (but I would give it to my friend as a gift:-D) Yeah, it's logical. My friend can appreciate the presentation for the cupcake. A dog wouldn't know a pretty cupcake from an ugly one.

    There is just something slightly unwelcoming about this Starbucks location to me. It is often very busy or crowded with raucous pre-teens. I have had staff just forget to make my coffee here and then ask me 5 min later what I was waiting for. There is a parking lot in the back, but it's shared with multiple other stores so it is often full. They do have some outdoor seating in front for warmer weather which is nice. The seating is right on ridgewood ave which is great for people watching and shopping. The parking lot is around the corner, entrance on cottage place. I usually come here more often than the glen rock location on rock rd (which I prefer to this location) out of convenience and often being in this area, but if I had a choice or were meeting a friend to talk for a while I would def. drive the extra few min to glen rock.

There's space to wait for your order too- so if it's cold or raining, there's room for you. They're open 7a-7p which is great. It was busy when I ran in today around 12:45p on a Sunday and that's always a good sign. It looks clean and the drinks I saw looked appetizing. The food menu sounds fantastic. The guy who helped me with my order was super nice. But I actually went in there on the hunt for something specific. It's the 2nd time I went in since they moved to the space across the street from where they were. The first time I stopped in quickly and saw they had what I was looking for but very few so I didn't buy anything. l had done a very difficult and time intensive Google search for Macaron Cafe macarons. They wholesale out of NYC and they're the best macarons ever. There are probably 6-7 places in Ridgewood that sell macarons, some that make them fresh baked. And none are as good as the ones from Macaron Cafe. Pre-covid I could find them locally pretty easily. But now, it's really hard. Most of the places that sell them put up a menu of the flavors that's very easily identifiable, and they carry the full line. By googling a photo of the menu I was able to find them in Fort Lee and American Dream and those are both too far. I'd gone into every single place that sells macarons in downtown Ridgewood except RCC and none of them have them. I finally made it into Ridgewood when RCC is open (we usually end up in Ridgewood after dinner and they're closed) and imagine my joy in seeing the macarons there. I can tell it's them instantly. Except - they only have like eight of the flavors! They don't advertise them. They don't have the menu up either, so they only way I could tell there might be a chance of them being there was an old photo of their counter from Yelp or Google. So, I didn't have any drinks or food. I just bought some macarons. And I would've bought more except that they didn't really have the flavors I wanted. There are generally around 28-32 flavors and they change/add/take away every few months/holidays, etc. My knocking a star is ONLY for the lack of flavors of these amazing macarons and only having a tease amount of flavors of them. And they should advertise their baked goods/desserts better, like in photos on instagram. They don't post enough of all their food. I had to just take a chance and come in from an old photo. I know I don't want to have to drive to American Dream mall for these macarons. And I know the girls behind me in line today were talking about how they came in for tiramisu.

The matcha einspanner caught my eye, but unfortunately the flavors fell short for me. The barista making my drink appeared to be newer (another barista ended up taking over to finish the drink), and the drink itself tasted overly milky with not enough matcha flavor. Maybe it was the whipped cream, but it felt diluted overall. On the other hand, my husband's New Orleans iced coffee was good, and my friends enjoyed their other coffee drinks as well. Next time, I'll skip the matcha and just stick with coffee.

I tried a bit of the éclair and we both agreed that it was the star of the show. I normally am not a big éclair person but this one was so chocolatey and rich.

The staff looked us up and down and immediately told us there was a problem because the kitchen was not working and no food could be prepared. We noticed that coffee and pastries were still being served, so we asked if we could at least order those. The answer was yes, but no one offered to seat us or explain the situation further. We ordered coffee and a spinach feta pastry, which was served cold and tasted stale. Considering we were charged $12 per pastry, the quality was extremely disappointing. The most frustrating part was what happened next. About 10 minutes after we sat outside, another family was seated nearby and was served food from the kitchen without any issue. If the kitchen had become operational again, no one informed us or asked whether we would like to order anything else. Instead, staff repeatedly came to our table with the bill, even bringing the wrong bill the first time, making us feel rushed and unwelcome. The café was nearly empty, yet we received some of the poorest service I've experienced in New York or New Jersey. I still don't understand why we were treated differently, but the combination of poor communication, unfriendly service, and overpriced food made for a very disappointing experience. Unfortunately, I would not return and would not recommend this café to others.

The pastries are a highlight too; they are homemade and baked fresh on a "need-to-basis," so you know everything is made with care and never sits around.
