Barrio Barista
60 Sip Ave, Jersey City, NJ
Crema's Take
“Barrio Barista is a newly opened Jersey City gem from the Jam + Jarwin team that's earned serious devotion from coffee travelers willing to trek nearly an hour for their expertly pulled espresso drinks and signature creations like their cult-favorite ube lattes. The carefully curated pastry selection—particularly their addictive ube cheesecake cups—pairs seamlessly with their top-notch beans, while the warm, home-like space and attentive service make it equally perfect for a quick caffeine hit or a lingering afternoon. It's the kind of specialty coffee spot where every detail, from the balanced sweetness of their Spanish Latte to the pristine atmosphere and good music, feels intentional and worth the visit.”

Stopped by Bario Barista Espresso Bar in Jersey City and had a wonderful experience. We tried their coffee along with the Ube Cheesecake, and both were absolutely delicious. The coffee was rich and perfectly brewed, and the Ube Cheesecake was creamy with just the right balance of sweetness and flavor.
Traveled from almost an hour away and it was absolutely worth it. Some of the best coffee I’ve have in a long time. I got the Spanish Latte and it was absolutely delicious, so good I was sad when I finished it. Also got the dulce de leche cheesecake cups and they were amazing. The staff was so kind and helpful. Would highly recommend and will be returning!
Kudos to Jam + Jarwin’s team! Their new cafe is truly deserving of more accolades! Ordered their iced ube latte and it was superb—smooth, perfectly balanced, and not overly sweet. The space has a homey and bright vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. The owner, Jam is incredibly knowledgeable about coffee and baking, and you can really feel her passion and experience! Such a welcoming spot with great quality—highly recommend! PS Don’t leave without trying their ube and dolce de leche mini cheesecakes!
Just tried this newly opened coffee shop and I’m officially obsessed. Their cheesecake cups are unbelievably good, creamy, not too sweet, and honestly addictive. And if you’re an ube lover, prepare yourself… the ube latte is to die for. Rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced. I also tried the calamansi tea, and wow. Refreshing, citrusy, not overly tart, just the perfect drink to brighten your day. Great flavors, cozy atmosphere, and super friendly staff. Definitely worth the stop! ☕💜🍰
Great spot for coffee lovers! Espresso beans are top-notch, pastries pair perfectly, and service is quick. Clean space with a nice atmosphere and good music — will definitely be back. For drinks, my parents and I ordered the spanish latte, clamansi lemonade refresher, and ube latte. Spanish latte was my fav along with their ube cheesecake and chocolate croissant.
