Jola Coffee — Restaurant in North Caldwell

It's about damn time there's a good coffee shop in the area!!! They carry Counter Culture coffee which is really good...and usually way more expensive. The owners and baristas know their customers and can still make you feel like the only person in the shop when the line is out the door. Lots of pastry options including a ton of healthier options and also gluten free stuff from Zest. Great place and such a breath of fresh air in the land of, "What do you want from Dunkin?" Nothing! I want real coffee, I want to go to Jola.

2022 update: Man, I LOVE how creative the seasonal drinks are. I try to sample everything on the menu. Where else can I get my comfort food (PB&J) in a latte? Or my favorite summer treat, berry puree in my iced coffee? So good! I'm a proud regular here even though I don't even live in the area and if you're nearby, what's your excuse? It's so good! Even if you're not a coffee person, you'll find something you'll love. We've even converted my anti-coffee mom who now can't go without her iced...

I just went today, and I was pleasantly surprised! Not only were they open with all the snow, but it was a very cute, small coffeeshop, a great option for some fancy/artisan coffee. It's a little pricier than other coffeeshops I've been to, but not so pricy I'd put off going. I got the mocha latte, and it tasted + looked great! I like the little things about Jola Coffee that add to the positives I've mentioned so far; the two ladies who were working were very helpful, and made my mocha with a nice heart on top, despite me getting it to-go (usually, coffee places skimp on that if it's to-go....small detail, I know, but I liked it 😁). Another small nice detail I liked was the little green things you put in the lid to cover the hole so it stays warm to-go (which, after walking about a quarter of a mile in the snow, it did indeed stay very warm!). Overall, it tasted great, had great presentation, staff was helpful, and the little shop looked cute inside and out! Definitely am going again, and will recommend it to...

I have finally found a café spot on my daily drive. I don't run on Dunkin but I do go to Starbucks. Now Jola is a gem a jewel of a place for your hand brewed café. There is espresso which is great they also make those Foo Foo drinks. I saw one of those drinks made with the design I just don't get it.

They have a little fridge with your teas and designer drinks as in sodas and juices. They carry your pastries and yogurts for a quick grab and go or if you want to have a seat. I have met some nice owners of shop before but Mrs. Jodi and Larry are truly two of a kind.

Engaging knowing names of their customers having friendly banter with them. They are Indianapolis Colts fan and we had some fun football talk. I found out that I'm not welcomed there cause I'm a Steelers fan. I say that jokingly as Larry tells me about a game from the 90's that still bothers him lol.

Great owners great café great...
