Absolutely love Union! Their traditional espresso drinks are top-tier and the environment is always my go to! Their Live Music Series each moth is a great way to enjoy the evening and got work done. The staff is always so kind and their music taste is so sick. Thank yall for always playing the niche artists, it makes the vibe perfect read more

The best part of this cafe are the service and ambiance. The servers are always very sweet, kind, and efficient, and there definitely is a friendly atmosphere. There's always a decent line but a lot of available seating. Union Coffee is a good place to get some work done. However, I honestly am not a fan of their drinks. The lavender and snickerdoodle lattes are both incredibly sweet and syrupy, and I'm not a big fan of the taste. The regular coffee drinks are below average for their price range and nothing special. The food is also overpriced and much lower quality than you'd expect for a New Jersey bagel or sandwich. I think it's a decent place to stop by if you need somewhere to work for a few hours. I just personally wouldn't come here again. read more

Stopped in just before closing for lattes. The service was efficient and friendly despite the late hour. The lattes were tasty with no complaints. read more

We got here early and it got crowded quickly. I ordered a pour over which was well prepared. It was a single origin, Honduran coffee, but my tastes tend more towards Ethiopian and this one lacked the fruitiness that I like. I would've preferred to have a couple different to choose from. Julie got the chai tea latte but she said it could've been a little bit hotter. Definitely has the good coffee place vibe with interesting people and soft indie music playing in the background. Looks like they handle Partners coffee beans, which I think are Brooklyn based. The fresh local milk and eggs make it a little quirky. read more

Union Coffee - Doodle time - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lambertville, New Jersey

This is one of my favorite Lambertville cafes. I'll normally start my day trip to this cute, cozy town here with a latte to sip as I bop and shop. It has plenty of space inside if you want to take a break from the walking around and sit for a bit, a little nook filled with gifts, mugs, cards, etc and a friendly team that has always been super quick with orders even on the busiest of days. I will usually get my usual oat milk latte but I've also tried their drip coffee, cold brews, and a few of their seasonal treats, it's always great. I love that they have a tap for water, perfect for when I need to hydrate a bit before I recaffeinate. It's always buzzing and busy so I think everyone else in town has the same love for Union Coffee that I do. read more

My go to coffee shop in Lambertville! What's not to love about this place? They serve amazing coffee, a variety of delicious food (the egg salad sandwich is to die for), have a cute little gift shop & lots of seats with occasional live music. The best part is they sell local eggs & milk. Everyone is always welcoming and kind. I wish they had a larger iced latte size, my coffee never lasts more than a few minutes, haha! read more

Super cute spot, great vibes, and great lattes! We stayed with friends over in New Hope, but hopped over the river to do some antiquing. This spot was a great place to start our day. My chai was lovely and the staff ensured all the ingredients were gluten free and safely made my drink. Lots of space to sit and a cute little offering of food plus a small shop in the back. Will definitely request we go here on our next trip back! read more

Here's a polished version of your review: I really love the place and the overall vibe -- it's a great spot to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. However, the experience was disappointing due to the attitude of the staff behind the counter, who came across as rude. I was also charged the price of a latte for a cup of drip coffee, which didn't feel right. People don't just come here for the food and drinks, but for the full experience -- and unfortunately, the service didn't match the ambiance. read more

Union coffee is a gem in west Jersey. Union Coffee is an ideal spot for grabbing a hot/cold drink, a snack and getting some work done. My go to drink is the snickerdoodle latte. Each time I've gotten it, it has been great. The espresso is always roasted to perfection and it always finds a happy-medium for sweetness. It's never too sweet, but it's sweet enough where the snickerdoodle flavor comes through. As someone who eats gluten free, I appreciate the chocolate-coconut cookie at Union. The cookie is soft and hits the spot. The service at Union is fast, which is a nice touch for a local spot. Union Coffee has a cozy and inclusive vibe, and sometimes features local music artists- making Union a solid choice for a date or meetup spot with friends. The next time you find yourself in Lambertville make sure to stop at Union Coffee! read more

I've popped into Union Coffee a couple times now when I've been in the area. The first time for a lemonade, the second time for an iced latte. I'd say this is one of the better places to get a nice coffee in town. There's a cute corner with goods for sale, and a nice selection of coffees and beverages plus snacks. Today I got the pumpkin bread and an iced latte. The pumpkin bread was especially light and tasty - I wonder where they get it from? read more

A nice small sized café with really good coffee and tea. All brewed on the spot. Coffee beans are fresh, atmosphere is cozy. They have a small merchandise aisle and a nice size bathroom. There is also good Wi-Fi as well as a large table with chairs that you can sort of communal work together with strangers. Large windows with a small Christmas tree that shows people walking by. Right across the street there is a very old bookstore with lots of additions and hard to get vintage books. read more

Cozy cafe with friendly staff, ample seating( both indoor and outdoor tables on walkway), selection of pastries/sandwiches, smooth and tasty coffee, no bitterness in sight right in the downtown of Lambertville. We went on Saturday morning, it was busy but we were able to get table and enjoy our lattes and bagels in the cafe. You can enjoy the coffee in cafe or walking around the town or on trail along the canal. would definitely recommend this coffee shop. read more

Visiting New Hope/Lambertsville for a girls weekend and came here for coffee our last day. I was without a voice and the team was so understanding and helpful. Our drinks were amazing and the ambiance of the shop is great. Highly recommend! read more

This is a cute coffee shop. I came here on an early Sunday morning and everyone was really nice and it seems like there are definitely "regulars" who come here. I did not try the coffee but the green tea was very nice. I am gluten and dairy free and found a few available options: apples and peanut butter, overnight oats with nuts and berries, and an oat yogurt. They don't have gluten free bread here to be able to try any of the sandwiches, or really any pastries that were gluten AND dairy free (but they did have gluten free only options and dairy free only options). There's an older guy who seems to come here regularly and one of the staff was super nice to him, making him a special bagel surprise etc - it was super heartwarming to see. I like the vibe here, it's super chill. I don't know why this doesn't come up on recommended places near me since it's only an 18 minute drive. There are 4 small tables, a booth, 3 bar stools against the wall, and then a big family style table with maybe 10 seats. There are outlets on the wall and the wifi seems pretty fast. They also have a cute little gift shop in the back. Parking nearby has to be done with the ParkMobile app unless you come in when parking is free like a Sunday morning. read more

Perfect cup of coffee here. Tried a cinnamon toast cappuccino and it was so good. Minor complaint but mainly a plea to coffee shops to bring back real mugs, like the ceramic ones. This coffee especially deserves a real cup even though the paper cup was just fine. read more

This is overall a cute shop and the staff was nice and the prices were reasonable. I was happy to know they had decaf coffee. Looking for an escape from the cold army friend and I stopped in and I got a plain decaf drip coffee - they have milk and sugar and such at a bar across from the counter. There were so many people working there at least 5 and all the seats were taken. It was definitely busy and I enjoyed that they had a little shop. It did feel a little dirty though - probably from how busy it was. And with it being so small it got claustrophobic when big groups came in. That aside what was disappointing was the coffee - at first sip I enjoyed it but by the end it just tasted like sludge. Maybe we got the end of the pot? I'm not sure who's coffee they use, but it was disappointing to say the least. No matter how nice the spot is, if a regular cup of coffee is disappointing then I can't realistically give a high rating. Maybe try other items from their menu? They did have some nice looking food options as well! read more

Union Coffee - Coffee counter - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Lambertville, New Jersey

I have mixed feelings about this establishment which ultimately is disappointing because they put out great product. I live close by and this has been my go to spot for the better half of a year, but the continuous odd and negative encounters I have with the staff, is preventing me from being a regular patron. 90% of my visits I feel as though I am bothering the staff by being there. While some of the baristas have been friendly, I continuously feel as though I am interrupting their social hour. As I mentioned, I like their drinks and food but the overly chattystaff create a wait time for the drinks and food that is borderline unacceptable. read more

I really needed coffee this morning. I'm not a serial coffee drinker but with Halloween I was up later than usual which messed with my internal clock. I've been to Union a few times. The coffee is okay. As mentioned I'm not a coffee snob. I couldn't really tell you much in terms of this coffee compared to others. The employees here are friendly. There is usually a crowd of people drinking their coffee and hanging out so definitely a good ambiance and place that people like. I'll be back for another one of these I'm sure. read more

Service was very friendly, which I appreciated. But the latte was mediocre. I don't know why cafes don't use barista milk, the difference in creaminess in alternative mills can be tasted right away. An okay experience but left me wanting. read more

Snickerdoodle Iced Latte was great. Scone was very good too... although it wasn't the one I ordered.

Best coffee in Lambertville (You could maybe say tied with luminary but they don't have the atmosphere this place does). The atmosphere is on point and it's a wonderful spot to spend the morning chatting with friends or just enjoying the morning. Staff is super friendly and attentive. Great baked goods. read more

Coffee taste burnt and the establishment is dirty. We had the avocado toast and it was mediocre. The signage inside of this place is straight offensive. read more

Great coffee in Lambertville. Choice of milks, fast service. A great way to warm up while antiquing downtown.

Great coffee! Great vibe in the place! Was there in the middle of the afternoon and it was packed! My initial thought was "going to be too crowded", but I really enjoyed working for the next two hours. read more

Visit lambertville often and Union coffee is always a must do. Love the ambiance, coffee, and this time around finally tried some of their baked goods. Croissant was our favorite followed by the coconut blondie, ginger cookie and chocolate chip cookie. All were delish! Also love the little stickers you can buy at the counter. read more

Worth seeking out! Really good espresso-based drinks and snacks in a clean, comfortable, welcoming space. Quite a few patrons working inside on laptops while enjoying their drinks, with several others enjoying the outside seating as well. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Carolyn, who couldn't have been more pleasant and welcoming. Highly recommend this nice local joint. read more

Fast , friendly , coffee with a smile. Had a great latte and a vegan choc chip cookie. Both did not disappoint .

Stop by for a snickerdoodle latte and it tasted great. Nice space and enough seating all around. Would love to come back and try the other drinks read more

Fantastic service and super high quality ingredients. The quiche was off the hook (Brie and ham)

This is such a cute coffee shop. It's clean and airy it has a few tables to sit at. The coffee was great and the staff were very nice.

Best iced oat milk latte I've ever had! I'm so happy this opened close to my work. Carolyn and her staff are so friendly and welcoming, too. I usually get one of the Factory Girl pastries, but the few times I've tried the in house food, it's been very tasty. read more

Union is now officially the first place we stop when coming into town AND the last place we stop on our way out! They have delicious daily food specials and the baristas turn out consistent and delicious drinks. They are brewing coffee from Partner's (fka Toby's Estate) with the Brooklyn roast for drip and Flatiron, which is one of my favorites, for espresso based drinks. The staff are all super friendly, remembering the regulars and their ongoing conversations. They are also always happy to help new customers decide between all the amazing choices. read more
