J & L Coffeehouse
3 Old Boston Rd, Scranton, PA
Crema's Take
“J & L Coffeehouse nails the shaken espresso—smooth, seasonal-forward, and craveable enough that regulars order it on repeat. The drive-thru makes it dangerously convenient for your morning caffeine fix, while the cozy interior with thoughtful design details works perfectly if you need to settle in with a laptop for hours. It's the kind of place where the staff genuinely seems happy to see you, though the food can be inconsistent, so stick to what they do best: coffee and quality bagels.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, good cold brew. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Drive-thru.

Kate & Jayna were so sweet and kind + this place has the best bagels and specialty coffee selection in Luzerne County hands down.
Good food, service, and ambiance. Whoever furnished and decorated did a great job--I was comfortable during my 2 hours working on my laptop. The coffee was delicious and bold, and the breakfast sandwich I ordered was decent. It's a little out of the way, but if I ever have cause…
