    Water down Americano with a side of attitude
    Carmiña C.

    We came on a Sunday Afternoon and I ordered an Americano and the water to espresso proportion was completely off. It was basically coffee tea. When we politely mentioned it, the girl told us with an attitude that, "that's what an Americano is, expresó and water" and did nothing about it. The scone was doughy... very dissatisfied with the service, drink and food.

    Cookies and cream blended with peanut m&ms.

    Thomas Sweet, to put it lightly, is the greatest ice cream place on this planet, and we are blessed to live in NJ and be within 15 minutes of two locations. I don't want to tell you how to order, but if you order anything other than cookies and cream ice cream blended with peanut M&Ms, you are not achieving your own potential in life.

    Chocolate Chip Cookie

    The service here is amazing. The person at the counter gave the best recommendations and let us try so many flavours (and even encouraged it!!! We love an ice cream place that isn't stingy) I'd 100% recommend the chocolate chip cookie ice cream. As the worker there put it--it's like the dough parts of cookie dough ice cream, but the flavor is entirety of the ice cream itself. Definitely hard to find a flavor like this elsewhere. I wouldn't really recommend Jersey Shore (vanilla with caramel) though, it was definitely too sweet and I couldn't get through that scoop.

    Chocolate chip cookie on bottom, birthday cake in the middle, and Nutella on top

    I love how large the space is and how much seating there is. A+ for space and ambiance. Much nicer vibe than a normal ice cream place, and it was so refreshing not to have to fight for a table (cough cough like at the nearby Bent Spoon where you feel like a burden to everyone for just being there). Also, ice cream places are often freezing inside but I was quite comfortable, so my friend and I were able to stay and chat for about an hour before we realized how much time had passed. The ice cream flavors I got were chocolate chip cookie (which is the best ice cream flavor ever to be invented anywhere), birthday cake (which was phenomenal), and Nutella (which was great, except that the lady gave me about one bites worth so I really didn't get to experience this flavor at all...) The ice cream quality is awesome, the flavors unique (though not as many fun flavors as other Thomas Sweet locations), and the setting is chill. My one complaint was that the server gave me such a minuscule amount of the Nutella flavor that it truly was only one bite's worth. Also, they don't have waffle cones, just cake and sugar. Overall, good experience. Definitely better than the Bent Spoon in Princeton (whose serving sizes are all child sized despite the high prices, and where you will never sit because they have one single table), but I think I might still prefer Thomas Sweets in New Brunswick.

    I just paid $35 for 4 large??? Sundaes. The container is large but the actual contents is SMALL at best. What a total Rip off! I'd really like the owner to contact me. My Response to the owners response. I did in fact "engage" with him. He quickly decided that the customer is always ...wrong. That's bad business to me. Exact Same order at Uncle Ed's in Pennington a month ago was $28 for much more ice cream.

    Black River Roasters is one of my long-time favorites. Their seasonal drinks are always so good. I…read moreespecially love the iced maple latte. There's plenty of indoor seating, and the outdoor seating area is spacious and really elevates the whole atmosphere in the warm weather. The baristas are consistently kind, quick, and talented, and the drinks come out perfect every single time. I'm a huge local coffee shop fan, and not every shop nails consistency, but Black River Roasters has gotten it right without fail since the day they opened. I've been coming here since they first opened their doors, and their coffee is still tough to beat. Truly some of the best coffee I've ever had!

    Passing through Whitehouse Station and in search of coffee brought me to Black River Roasters, and…read moreit definitely was a pleasant surprise! First impressions: wow, this place is huge for a coffee shop. Black River roasts their own coffee beans in house, which is always nice and means you're getting some high quality caffeine. Seasonal flavors included pumpkin, bourbon maple, and apple cinnamon -- so you already know you're getting quality, since these aren't flavors you can get just anywhere. I loved the signage depicting staff favorite drink mixes as it adds a fun touch to the menu! Coffee was great, my only complaint is that with syrups the drink can get way too sweet (especially since I typically drink unsweetened coffee.) Make sure to ask for less syrup and you'll be good to go! Can't wait to return!
