If you have a chance to stop by this cute cafe in Nutley NJ. The decor , staff (especially Stella😉) and food is just a great place to chill. Some really great touches of the 90's. I got the smash burger slaps. Two patties cheese with a brioche bun. My lady got the notorious BLT. (Clever marketing) If you don't like any of these items come in for the coquito coffee and the nitro fries. Cajun spiced with a hint of sweetness. Crazy good. I honestly can't think of any real words right now. Great…

This was my first time trying them and I absolutely loved everything I tried. We ordered the cinnamon French toast, Passaic breakfast platter, coquito latte, and green tea mango lemonade. 10s all across the board. I’m normally super critical about food and I had no complaints!! Will be coming back frequently!!

A Cozy atmosphere, five-star service, beautiful décor, and food/beverages that did not disappoint. Everything was freshly made and packed with flavor. We ordered the deep-fried cinnamon French toast, skirt steak and eggs, and the Passaic ave Breakfast, plus a hot chocolate and latte, so good! Huge thanks to Jack for taking great care of us (and helping with lighting for our photos!) and to Jaime for her patience and assistance at checkout. We will definitely be back!

I have visited Sugar Tree Cafe several times, and each visit has been a wonderful experience. The staff is always incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive, providing excellent service every time. Jack is very welcoming and always takes the time to ask how the service is. His friendly attitude makes every visit enjoyable. Their Coquito Latte is absolutely delicious and a must-try! I highly recommend stopping by Sugar Tree Cafe if you're looking for a great atmosphere, friendly service, and…
