Harper's Cafe
134 South Valley Rd, West Orange, NJ
Crema's Take
“Harper's Cafe in West Orange strikes a welcoming balance between specialty coffee culture and neighborhood gathering spot, where thoughtful touches like oat and almond milk options and made-to-order breakfast items like French toast with housemade syrup show real care for their regulars. The matcha drinks and specialty beverages pull in enthusiasts, but it's the owner's genuine warmth and the comfortable vibe that keeps people coming back to linger with a hot chocolate or catch up over the Harper's Club.”

First time here and I had a great experience! I tried their matcha and it was really good. I’m dairy free and appreciated that they offer options like oat milk and almond milk. The owner was super nice and genuinely welcoming, such a great guy. Overall, the vibe was great and I’ll definitely be back!
I asked for a vanilla iced latte and I received a drink that looked like and tastes like watered down coffee and coffee mate creamer. Paid close to $6 for my drink. I’m all for supporting small businesses but if you’re going to overcharge you should put a bit of effort into the drinks.
I've been meaning to come here for a while now and I am so happy I did today. I had a delicious hot chocolate and the Harper's Club; both were delicious. I wish I could have dined in because the vibe was nice but I'll be back soon. ❤️
Hey, so I love this place until I realize every morning when I’m on the go there’s something wrong with my order which I never called and make a big deal about but just so happen this day. I decided to reach out to let them know like hey, this is a continuous thing every day of the week….. Which I only support this business because I literally live four houses down!!! And it’s very convenient when I spoke to the manager about it he was very aggressive his tone very aggressive the way he approach the manner very aggressive. I only support because I am black and it’s black owned but one thing I realize you can’t really support Black people. The customer service isn’t really customer servicing because if you can get aggressive about something so simple that’s a mistake. I would never want to support your business or even give you another dollar to support your business..
Came here for breakfast. Part of the menu is only available after 1030am so I ordered their French toast. Delicious and great flavor! The syrup is on the side so you can add as much or little as you like. It’s not overly sweet yet full of flavors and I enjoyed it a lot! My only complaint is that it’s a little burnt on one side but not too much to an extend that you can taste it. Great atmosphere and service too! I also enjoyed their playlist :)
