Boxwood Coffee

This has been my go-to coffee shop every weekend for the last couple of years. To put it simply, their coffee is fantastic. Specifically, their cold brew which is extremely smooth and strong, and in my opinion you don't even need to put anything in it unless you really want something sweet, although why would you get a cold brew if that's the case lol. Also packs quite a bit of caffeine so you'll be good for the rest of the day. Their pastries are pretty solid as well, although a bit on the pricier side.

The cafe itself is on the smaller side but still an ample amount of seating. It's excellent for meeting with a friend, however the tables are rather small so it is less study friendly unless you manage to snag one of the bigger tables by the entrance. Which is admittedly pretty tough to do unless you get here right when it opens or catch a lucky break when someone leaves - I speak from experience. That said, it's overall a pretty solid spot to get work done.

Parking in downtown Summit is a pain in general, I usually just park in the lot and walk over. Limit is at 5 hours and you will have to walk back if you want to extend it. There might be parking available by the cafe, but I'm personally less confident on how long you can to stay before getting ticketed/booted, so do so at your own risk.

With a late afternoon flight out of Newark and nowhere to go until then to work, I decided to visit Boxwood Coffee for some food and a nice workspace at the recommendation of my friend who's a local.

This place is incredible, the staff were all super friendly and helpful, the place is very tidy, with a nice quietly atmosphere perfect for working from, plenty of seating and outlets, and some delicious food and drink options.

As a non-coffee drinker, sometimes coffee shops can be big flops for me, but they had a very nice tea menu so I decided to try some of their Hibiscus berry tea which was very refreshing, fruity, and floral. Additionally, I was hungry so got one of their beautiful baked goods - a banana chocolate chip muffin. Anyone who knows me, knows this is exactly the type of baked good I love and it checked off all the boxes. Such a delicious way to start my day.

I stayed here for the whole morning while I drank, ate, and worked and it seemed that was pretty normal here. The place got pretty busy towards lunch time, but the staff never made me feel unwelcome. Great experience !

Cute little café in Summit. Coffee is really good, and the staff is friendly. Came here around 8:30 am on a Saturday for a quick bite and coffee while my car was in the shop. Quiet and cozy- perfect!

Great coffee shop in downtown Summit. A lot of seating, which was good considering the large number of people that were there the day we showed up. The coffee itself was excellent but the cappuccinos prepared perfectly. Nice coffee shop vibe inside recommend to any coffee lover.

Came here with my boss for a quick coffee and sweet treat after a lunch. The lavender latte (I have no idea what the actual name was) was incredible, and I had a pistachio macaron that was the perfect bite. Definitely not a Starbucks-style "factory," so the artisan drinks may not be immediately ready, but the space is nice enough to hang in while you wait. There were tons of tables outside for us to work at, but the shrubbery was a bit awkward.

Very expensive for a small latte and croissant. Got charged extra for almond milk(that's fine) PLUS another custom amount whatever that means. Ordering in store was not smooth, waited a long time for 2 items. Ambiance is nothing special.

Great oat latte. No soy here. Good temperature but would have preferred hotter.

$6.66 for an oat latte. Was filled 75%.

This place caught my eye initially with the most wonderful quote on the window. I have frequented it since and like the ambiance and usually pretty fresh beans. The consistency of the coffee is mostly solid, however it would be good to see some greater standardization as I have come and had wonderful cups and sometimes it is schlepped.

Nice little coffee shop. Enjoyed a tremendous tres leches donut with a hot chai latte. Super nice staff and convenient location!

Terrific shop offering hand-crafted coffee and tasty treats. Ample seating if you'd like to stay a while. Friendly staff, and very nice decor.
