Crema's Take

Nova's is a relaxed Elizabeth spot where you can linger over traditional coffee drinks while diving into generous breakfast portions that lean into Latin-inspired pastries like fresh alfajors and fruit pies. The vibe is genuinely family-friendly and welcoming, with staff who go the extra mile, though consistency with both food quality and service can be a bit uneven depending on when you visit. It's the kind of place where you'll want to settle in for a work meeting or catch up with friends over something homemade and satisfying.

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Such a pleasant place. Great food, customer service. Portion was HUGE. My sister and I shared a plate and still had leftovers. Dessert was simply delicious. I will most definitely be back.

Everything with a crust is so yummy and the alfajor cookies are fresh and tasty. Looking forward to going back for the fruit pies. The location is nice and the service went beyond.
