Caffe AND — Restaurant in Fort Lee

Visit: 10/17/23

PROS Friendly staff, very smiley, welcoming, and polite. Cozy, quiet space with natural zen vibes. Good study area and decent dating spot, but only groups of up to two or three recommendable. (See CONS) Classic breakfast/brunch/lunch/quick bite/dessert items from coffee to sandwiches to macarons. A rather unique dish, though, is their crossands (croffle + sandwich), NOT a typo! I got plain croffles because I didn't want anything fancy or too sweet, and they were great! Wifi and bathroom available. Points system that keeps customers engaged. I unknowingly dropped by on their one-year anniversary and received a pen! But it seems five loyalty customers' names had been drawn for a better prize! 😀

CONS Limited space. When I visited a little before 3 PM, the line to order was reaching the entrance. Plus another line to pick up the orders. But perhaps this depends on the day and time. Limited seating. There is one "spacier" table with four cushioned chairs, two smaller round glass tables with three wooden stools (no back) each, and one long, thinner table lining the windows with four bar chairs. Tldr: not great for large groups or more than...

Ran into a few issues ordering through Uber - they forgot one item and they swapped the bread for 2 of the sandwiches, which wasn't the end of the world. The biggest problem was in my bacon, egg and croissant sandwich. I was halfway through it when I took a bite in the middle, I felt something hard in my mouth and there was a plastic ring for a plastic bottle cap inside..

The food itself was actually really tasty and huge portions, so judging based off that alone from me would get a 5/5. But finding something like this in your food... it really sours the whole experience no matter how good it is. The plastic piece is small enough also that if someone wasn't paying attention, they could have choked on it.

I'm sure this was just a one off experience, but whoever was cooking this morning today on 9/12, please be a little...

WOW JUST WOW

Latte was made to absolute perfection. The micro foam to the temperature. The barista Justin is an absolute master at what he is doing! By the way I open the cap and saw the beautiful flower hidden within.

I went a little off the regular latte I would normally go for and got a drink called the spring garden. Wow the flavors were subtle but just perfect enough to complement the espresso. The latte is was bigger than what I would normally want. I tend to believe small latte should be 10oz and a larger one should be 12oz but I can easily say the 16oz I got was still great!

The place is small but cozy, seems to have tons of options from hot food and deserts which were very tempting but I’m...
