    Went here for the first time on a Saturday morning with a friend. The staff is high energy / positive and helpful. The place is well kept with some small tables and a counter area to hang out. The cold brew coffee I had was excellent and provided a needed bolt of caffeine. I highly recommend this local coffee place, and will definitely be going back

    Cozy coffee shop off Watchung in Montclair. I've been going here for years and am always treated with great service and great drinks. The owners are such nice folks, too. Not to mention, the doughnuts they source are incredible. No, really, you have to get one if you visit. Dog friendly, ever-changing wall art by local talent, indoor seating, and public wifi.

    Great place! Coffee is fantastic, any breakfast item I've tried had been delicious 😋. These donuts were so tasty and fresh. Owners and staff are wonderful. Even my dog George loves Local Coffee

    A quaint coffee shop for a quick bite of pastry while sipping on coffee. There's limited seating and the tables are small with a sign "laptop free". Latte art was very good and coffee wasn't too bad either.

    Great coffee and espresso drinks. I’m not too fond of the beans they use, but they still make a great drink. One thing they do well which a lot of coffee shops mess up on is layering the espresso drinks properly. They do it well here. When the milk is steamed and poured well, you get a great texture and even flavor throughout your drink...this is important, and their baristas know it. Comfortable place to sit and work. The baristas are very friendly!

    Cool coffee spot to grab a tasty cup! Space is typically full, so this is more of a grab and go or sit for a few minutes and talk to a friend kind of café. Not a sit and work spot as you will see from the “laptop free” “share a seat with some one new” signs. I had a large oat latte which was delicious and I was pleasantly surprised with the heart art. I would definitely spot in again

    They make a really good latte! The staff are fabulous. They recall all the regulars and are informed and friendly. I felt like a regular after just having come twice. Cute atmosphere and I love that the owner decided to feature local artists.

    I've been here a few times as my toddler son has started to have appointments nearby, and every time it's been a great experience. The coffee is great - it definitely tends to be on the strong side, which I personally enjoy. I buy my son a treat every time and everything has been delicious. It's a great atmosphere - everyone is very kind and welcoming to my son, and he loves that dogs are allowed in! It's become a weekly tradition that we both look forward to!

    We had heard hype about Local Coffee and were excited to try it. The coffee was so-so, the pastries were limited but good when we got them. The service was poor. Staff were exhausted and rude to me and others in the shop. I would not return.

    My wife and I have been coming here for years and we adore it. This place is the definition of community and connection. 10/10 always recommend. And their harvest latte is brilliant. Brenna is a genius barista and always invents the coolest drinks.

    I organize a monthly coffee meetup and contacted Robert, the owner. He was quick to accommodate my group and was incredibly gracious. The coffee was delicious and the pastries were also memorable. The ambience is immaculate yet inviting whether for quick pickup or to stay and enjoy. Get here early before the rush!

    Absolutely incredible every single time. Great folks working there.. would love if they put up an American flag to go along with the rest of the decor

    It’s a 10/10 coffee shop. Donut Plant donuts with their perfect flat white’s and cappuccinos is a literal slice of heaven in New Jersey.

    Situated in the heart of our community, this enchanting coffee shop truly stands out, leaving an indelible impression on fortunate visitors. Upon entering, guests are greeted by an ambiance that emanates warmth, relaxation, and a profound reverence for both coffee and the local community. Every facet of this establishment, from its exceptional beverages to its outstanding staff, harmoniously converges to deliver an unparalleled experience that is truly unforgettable. The cornerstone of this establishment undeniably lies in its remarkable coffee. With each sip, patrons are transported to a realm of opulent and aromatic flavors that gracefully dance upon the palate. Notably, their espresso drinks exemplify excellence, while I highly recommend complementing them with a delectable blueberry donut, which perfectly enhances the overall experience. My affinity for this establishment knows no bounds, and I eagerly anticipate returning time and again to savor the exquisite offerings they provide.

    The owners were so kind and welcoming. I ordered a cup of Chai latte and a carrot cake muffin - both were delicious! I wish I still lived around Montclair.. I'll visit again soon! Thank you for the wonderful service.

    One of my favorite coffee shops in the area. I always try to stop by here anytime I'm around. They make a great cup of coffee and have a fun rotation of pastries that I like to try sometimes.

    I heard great things about this little corner shop and had to give it a try…. and it exceeded my expectations! My boyfriend and I loved our lattes and could tell just from their taste that good quality ingredients are used. The owners were SOOOO NICE and genuinely enjoy taking care of the customers coming in. I highly recommend sitting down to enjoy the cozy vibe, and trying one of the doughnuts. I’m not a huge fan of sweets but I had two… they almost melt in your mouth after every bite!

    A cute cafe spot around the corner. It aligns with its name, as the local neighborhood is also very pretty. They have coffee items as well as some muffins, cookies etc. They have indoor as well as outdoor seating. There’s street parking available.
