Iced coffee is the best. No gross leftover coffee - made with water and shots of espresso . Love their hearty oatmeal with brown sugar too!
cold brew coffee is pretty good. lots of seating in the back. I was hoping for it to be a little more hipster , but I guess this is the best that Princeton can do.
huge work space that fills up quickly on sunday mornings - flat white is 6/10. would want to try the chai next time!
The NOLA is a spiced, iced coffee drink that is unreal. You won't regret getting the double. Note: this location is cash only .
Chai is indeed great! It has a little kick, which makes it that much better. Awesome service and cash only . Also, long lines do go quick and worth the wait.
Capuccino forte + gluten free oatmeal cookie ♥️ cash only ! Great coffee ☕️
They've been flavoring their coffee drinks since I started coming here (1994). Not just mint or hazelnut . The flavor selection is fantastic and you should try different combinations.
Great place to hang out in Princeton! The chai is spicy and amazing and the muffins are particularly delicious, too.
Its areal cup of coffee ! Nice place inside, usually with a exhibition ! Nice atmosphere!
The Tough Chai is the spiciest drink I've ever had. If you're a fan of Chai from Starbucks you might wanna take a pass on this since it's NOTHING like the SB version.
Iced coffee ! Also tons of seating and great place to relax or get some work done!
Intimate friendly neighbourhood coffee shop ! Pick up their home roasted beans to take with you!
If you're looking for the local Princeton "coffee shop ," this is the place. Newly remodeled and great for studying/groups. The iced mocha takes the cake and the warm peppermint mocha is fantastic!
Cash only . One-hour wifi slips available at the counter. Often a tad too crowded for work. Still the best coffee in town .
Best local place around to grab coffee especially if you want to escape the generic Starbucks.
Chocolate-y Breve Au Lait to Stay is the way to go if you are planning to be here for a bit!
Best coffee in Princeton . Cappuccino frappe is my fav! Also, buy a lb. of either the Joker Poker, Love, or Grumpy Monkey blend. All really good!
Double Double (large coffee w/2 shots espresso ) made perfectly. Oh, and the ginger cardamon scone
my go to coffee shop in Princeton! their coffee is delicious and really smooth
Opened in 1993, pre-dating the local "chain" coffee joint by many years. Did you know that they roast their own, and also supply many fine, local eateries with the best coffee around?
Great coffee shop right in the heart of Princeton. I highly recommend the tough chai .
The only place that I have seen in us offering full tea leaf as common in Arabic gulf region.
The new addition to the dessert menu -- locally made pudding-- is out of this WORLD yummy! Perfect with a cappuccino !
Best cappuccino more or less anywhere in America, equaled only by very expensive Italian restaurants .
This place was awesome, especially the tough chai . But be prepared — it's VERY intense!
Small World Coffee's House Blend is smooth and far superior to the nearby Starbucks' blend.
Great non-chain coffee stop in Princeton-strong coffee , great little bites.
Great cappuccino and red velvet cupcakes the perfect pairing.
Great place to come and read.. everytime I've visited, I've always found a place to sit. Although, why is the Coffee of the Day only served until 11:30am? It should be called Coffee of the Morning.
Must ask for Internet code at register!! For every device
Quite possibly the only café open past 8pm in the area. The coffee 's only okay, especially for the price. Not a bad place to chill with a book .
Plenty of power outlets along the walls. Free Wi-Fi with purchase, ask for password at the counter. Read more
Skip Starbucks and hit this place up instead, great coffee and plenty of seating!
good coffee great staff oddly placed condiments and coffee accoutrements
Their cappuccino is as good as any you'll find in Italia. And try the mini molasses cookies - they're like gingerbread , only better.
Coffee and ambiance are great. Downside: only one hour of WiFi
Cash only . A house coffee is called a Joe. So say small Joe to go.
House blend is delicious, can't wait to try the other blends/flavors!
Great coffee , great service, great feel, great place to read
Grabbing some coffee for a Reverie Events client meeting! The lattes here are the absolute best.
The latte is amazing. And the Nola coffee !
The Tough Chai is the best but not for the faint of heart
Cappuccino and hot caramel apple cider . Great for snippy weather.
THE place to go for coffee in Princeton . The best coffee , and EXCELLENT atmosphere. Some nights they have live music
Amazingly earthy iced coffee without a hint of bitterness. Availability of New Orleanses completes the Blue Bottle-ness.
Cool place crowded at times. Great coffee .
The straight up chai is wicked strong!
The Tough Chai is really spicy . Great for a cold day, but be sure you're ready for it.
This is our favorite coffee stop when we travel between Glens Falls, NY and Philly/South Jersey!
Definitely not the best coffee I have tried, but looks like the best in Princeton.
Great baristas! Often crowded due to the downtown locale, but always able to provide the comfort of home in a cup. - JT Holderman
They have a very nice cake selection and some good sandwiches. I always order cakes from here for office and other events. - Aleksey
The best artisanal coffee in the area. I love their pour overs. Recently they have started accepting Apple Pay. - Aleksey
The sandwiches and desserts are amazing. Treat yoself and get the raspberry chocolate mini-cake to go - Sabina B.
Beer sampler is awesome! For the vegetarians, there is mushroom burger and Brie sandwich are the best choices according to me. - Murali Vishnuvajhala
Sicilian Blood Orange is so good. And try the mini cupcakes. THEY ARE FANTASTIC. - Erin Byrne
