AKAR CAFE, COFFEE SHOP IN WALLINGTON, NEW JERSEY
61 Union Blvd, Lyndhurst, NJ
Crema's Take
“Akar Cafe is a warm neighborhood gem where the owners genuinely care about every cup they pour and every pastry they serve, with consistently beautiful latte art and croissants that locals rave about. The cozy, thoughtfully designed space invites you to linger with a cold brew or matcha tea, making it equally perfect for a solo work session or a family outing with people who treat you like regulars from day one.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, matcha and tea options too, good cold brew. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly.
