One of the best cafés I’ve ever been to in NJ! My friend and I came here every morning throughout our trip for their earthy lattes and soft, buttery croissants. Everything was so good, and it became our favorite morning ritual. Definitely a must-visit! ☕🥐

Had the Philosopher’s Garden sandwich, and it did not disappoint! Excellent food and great service. Definitely recommend!

Stumbled upon this place a couple of weeks ago! It has such a good energy and love that it’s a local business. The owners seem so sweet and the menu looks fantastic. The dulce de leche latte is a MUST HAVE!!!

Great little coffee shop hangout with pastries and sandwiches. We loved our specialty matcha and latte drinks! We observed many regulars stopping in with friendly greetings and conversations. Great atmosphere!

Everything at this cafe is delicious. I visit at least once a week. Ask for the fall menu for their Parisian sandwich and fun drinks! Their pastries and bagels are also very good! I love the hazelnut croissant. The dulce de leche latte is also a must try!

Alchemist's Table is literally a rainy day haven. I stopped in while it was raining outside, and stepping into that warm, inviting space felt like total vibes. I ordered the Philosopher’s Garden to eat, and it was ridiculously delicious; super fresh, flavorful, and so comforting alongside their house made matcha. The whole place has such a calming, cozy atmosphere where you just want to sit, slow down, and stay awhile.  Come on? Alchemist-themed menu? Yes, count me in. Absolute neighbourhood gem!

10/10 best place! It has good food and the coffee menu! Some even have cool nicknames to describe or choosing coffee and foods. I was mesmerized even by the writings menu. And I especially love the atmosphere, clear and bright. Not even tight spaced, just perfect. I can't see anything bad about it.

Union City has changed so much in the last decade, becoming less of a neighborhood and more of a new slice of New York. With that said, restaurants have come and go, new cafes have been built but if you’re looking for a place that screams “We are here and we will NOT move”, this is that place. A father-daughter owned cafe? Sold immediately.That’s not just the best part of this Jersey based business - I haven’t even gotten to their coffee yet.You can tell so much detail went into their menu!! The Nutella latte and the Dulce de Leche latte were my personal favorites, and that chocolate muffin.. wow. So warm, and I’m not even a genuine fan of chocolate!My friends have all gone and visited since the grand opening, and it’s not just the food & the coffee that make it worth visiting, but the atmosphere. Erin is SO sweet, and absolutely a doll when it comes to serving customers & newcomers, and so diligent with keeping up with social media for the cafe and ensuring this is the cafe that deserves to stay strong and a testament to the old Union City I grew up to love.

☕ NEW SPOT ALERT! ☕I’m loving this fresh new coffee spot! They opened just three months ago and are already brewing up an impressive 5.0 rating, so naturally, I had to see what all the buzz was about.I stopped in about 20 minutes after opening and decided to let them surprise me. I asked for a recommended hot coffee drink and whatever had just come out of the oven. They served me a dulce de leche cappuccino, which made me a little nervous at first, a piping-hot croissant and an empanada with chimichurri sauce.Everything was delicious! The empanada was smaller than usual, but the pastry was light and thin, and the filling had the perfect balance of flavor and juiciness.My only little espresso-sized complaint: I was charged $1 for the chimichurri sauce. In my book, the first sauce should be complimentary, or warn your customers.I also had a chance to speak with the owner, and he has exactly the right mindset: freshness and consistency. This is a great breakfast spot and definitely worth checking out!

Lovely neighborhood establishment. Great coffee drinks, delicious fresh pastries, and tasty finger food. Great vibes, calm atmosphere. I will be a frequent customer as it is in a wonderful location and has consistently good coffee.

Very relaxing cafe. The drinks are good! The owners are super friendly and welcoming. From the way they greet customers and keep the place tidy, you can see they really care for their cafe!

Amazing Cafe! So many fun and delicious things on the menu! I recommend getting the Dulce de Leche Latte or the HOMEMADE Empanadas! On top of that the owners of the Alchemist Table are the kindest and most friendly people you'll meet! I enjoyed my experience and I will be coming back.

This family run spot should be high on your list if you're around. Lovely people, great coffee, and a really unique menu full of delicious stuff you won't find elsewhere. Full of charm. My neighborhood spot!

Not a huge cafe-goer but stepping into this location during the soft launch definitely changed my mind! On top of the cozy atmosphere, the drinks and food are delicious. I got a Dulce De Leche Latte and a chocolate muffin my first time going and I've been hooked ever since. I highly recommend this location to both cafe enthusiasts and first-timers like myself!

2026-09-04T20:31:34.008Z

Great drinks and the owners are amazing!

This cute shop opened a couple months ago a block away from my apartment. I decided to stay stop by today to grab a coffee. The service is amazing, the owner Luis is so welcoming and kind. Definitely recommend if you want some relaxing time or need to focus on work !

Great cafe! Came across this place on way to another cafe. I am glad we stopped to check it out. The mortadella panini and beef empanadas were delicious, as well as the coffee. I will definitely be back:)

Ordered their latest creation, a Salted Maple iced latte, it is absolutely delicious! The vibes in the shop are so great, I also love how knowledgeable the barista is on coffee. She always whips up great drinks! The food is also delicious and freshly made. I look forward to enjoying hot drinks in the fall and winter here. Come visit!
