Had a book club meet up with my friends and we definitely enjoyed ourselves. The music was nice but not too loud. The drinks were great, I ordered the milo latter with coffee and was delicious. I want to go back to try the coquito latte! I also had a arepa de yuca with cheese on top it was so good! The staff is awesome! Definitely coming back!

First time here & I loved it ! From seeing Hector Lavoe in a Santa outfit was amazing and fun and then when I walked in & saw the amazing set up ! From a dominoes table too . I also love how they have Cbd products & goodies. I had the El clasico Sandwich which was $8.50. Omg it was amazing! Everything together with the sweetness of the guava (that’s what attracted me to this sandwich! I love guava) it was simply amazing! The cannacocktail coquito $5.50 and $10 extra for the nowadays 10mg. I didn’t add to my drink . But I do enjoy nowadays. & the coquito was delicious !!!!!! I love the taste and thickness. Every sip with coco bits. I def would come back I want to try the coquito matcha! I love the vibes! Def hard to find parking we had to park 6 mins away but it was so worth it !

Love this cafe! They’re always hosting different activities but the highlight is the coffee of course. The coquito latte is warm yumminess in a cup. I’ve also tried their bread with butter & cheese as well as their chicken sandwich and pastelitos & all I can say is yum yum yum! Good for working remote if you want a change of scenery with a cute vibe too.

Absolutely amazing experience!
From the moment i walked in, the vibes were warm, welcoming, and full of good energy. The service was outstanding — attentive, friendly, and genuinely caring. The food and drinks were flavorful. And the coffee? So good! Rich, smooth, and the perfectly made. You can tell they take real pride in what they do.
What made the experience even better was the owner and her crew — so awesome, friendly, and genuinely invested in making sure everyone felt at home. You can really feel the love poured into this place.
Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food, great service, and an overall great time. I’ll definitely be coming back! It was worth the 3hr drive!

Overall atmosphere and concept is pretty dope. Could place to just chill out and take in the vibe. Service was really good and attentive. I am pretty sure there was only 1 person working when I visited, so he took my order, made my order and brought it out to me as well. All while also helping others. He did a great job. My only reason for not giving this place a 5 was because I didn’t enjoy the avocado arepa as much as I thought I would. It just wasn’t for me however, I can’t say that it wasn’t good. It was good and I can see why people would love it. My drink was delicious. Overall great experience. Definitely worth multiple visits.

This was my first time in Marimba Cafe and I am very impressed. Hackensack has a lot of great small, businesses and Marimba Cafe is one of them for sure! FOOD WAS 10/10, authentic and cooked very well. Service was great, they greeted me as soon as I walked in. The concept and overall atmosphere felt very real and wholesome. The business owners really took their time and effort to create such a nice community center.

El classico. That was the best breakfast sandwich ive ever had in my life. Perfectly soft bread with slightly crispy melted cheese and egg and turkey pieces. This is one of those sandwiches thats going to burn into my memory. The coquito coffee was delicious and mind blowing as well. I cant wait to come back.

The vibe here is amazing and the service is 10/10! Lucia was the best and had amazing recommendations we loved it and would come back again. There are also games to play if you are looking for a place to sit, chat, and eat good food this is it!

Looooved the atmosphere at this cute Puerto Rican owned cafe. The coquito latte?! AMAZING. My friend got the avocado toast and I got the breakfast sandwich on Mexican bread. 9/10! The only downfall was that people were comfortably seated and no one was really policing the tables, but my friend and I finally got a seat and were able to enjoy the experience a little better.
