It’s a small cafe located inside the American Dream Mall, but they have a good selection. There are various macarons, cupcakes, croissants, and other baked goods, along with a wide range of coffee options.
What stood out the most was how friendly the staff were.
It’s right next to the food court, so it’s a great spot to grab a coffee after a meal or while taking a break from shopping.

Illy cafe was almost right at the center of the mall. Very close to kids play area and few other shops . We looked at the ice cream and decided to order one . Service was very slow 🙁 had to wait for a long time ! Billing was slow too. Ice cream taste was good. They also sold carbonated drinks . Good experience overall . 4 stars . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Conveniently located inside American mall.. fantastic products and great service. Nice and quick and very helpful staff . . Parking in the small is a big headache and also time-consuming, especially on weekends and peak hours… the mall is slightly away from South Jersey and Central Jersey within an hour drive.. It’s still worth a visit once in six months…

I’m honestly very disappointed with the customer service. I purchased two coffees and three pastries. This young lady was rude. I politely asked if they had tissues, and she told me there were none, she was near the sugar station doing something with a costumer. I didn’t asked her to stop what she was doing , I just wanted to know where are the tissues so I can grab them.she said no so I left as I’m walking to my seat I walked to the front of the cafe and saw tissue so i grab some and she came out of no where and intentionally removed them so I couldn’t get any. That was so weird, and then she goes on saying stuff or talking about me to other costumers and the other associate. I went back to my table, but then I walked over again to ask her what the actual issue was and why she felt the need to be rude. I was genuinely confused because I approached her politely. She then told me that her boss doesn’t want them giving customers tissues. So you’re telling me paying customers can’t have tissues? And if that’s the case, why place them in the front where customers pay? The whole interaction was unnecessary, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable.

We were hungry when we arrived at the American Dream Mall so we promptly made our way up the Coca Cola Eats food court on the 3rd floor in Court C of the vast Mall.
After our eating our food from the King Kong Express & Popeyes stalls, I went to the Illy Cafe stall to buy my wife a large cafe latte with just one shot of coffee, a large English breakfast tea and a slice of their delicious tiramasu cake for me, which came to very reasonable total of $20.
My wife had said she didn’t want any desert but she ended up eating the tiramasu because it was so good and I had to go back and get another slice just for me, which cost another $9! The really friendly & helpful server laughed when I told her that the extra slice was just for me as my wife had eaten the first one all by herself
We enjoyed the drinks & tiramasu so much we returned to the cafe to have the same drinks and another slice of cake just before we caught our bus back to NYC and we were served by a different but equally helpful & friendly server.
The food court and the vast mall didn’t have many visitors when we went on a Wednesday, so there was plenty of seating at and near the cafe.

Convenient and ideally situated in middle of food court. Decent selection of pastries & sweets. Cappuccino came out smooth & flavorful. illy really knows their coffee and I prefer this over many other top franchises. The peach pastry was delicious and I couldn’t get enough of it. Each bite made you wanting more. Nice spot to rest after all the shopping

I really needed a pick me up because this mall was much bigger than I had anticipated. I went to the Illy Cafe by the garden, and ordered an Americano. It was great, Perfect actually. It was exactly what I needed, and the barista (her name was Vanessa) that made it for me was so nice! I asked her if she knew where some stores were, and she quickly pointed me in the right direction. All in all, it was a great experience shopping after this interaction since I knew where I was going. I’ll definitely visit this café again.

Great place to grab some Coffee, Snacks & Ice-cream in the American Dream Mall. Located at the centre of the Dine Area with good seating places.
Very clean and well maintained place… our Order was taken in quick time and got the same served in no time. We went on a Weekend ie. Sunday Evening and the place was not crowded (not much waiting time as well).
The Staffs were very courteous and pleasant, we will definitely visit this place again.

I love this place and the food was amazing. the gelato on the first floor made my stomach feel amazing. The staff was amazing at the first floor and they were very fast. the chocolate croissant was probably imported from France and it tasted amazing. I loved the new drink from illy and I completely recommend this and keep it up

Perfect Coffee Stop – Strong, Smooth, and Quick!
I stopped by Illy Café at American Dream for a quick coffee, and it did not disappoint! I ordered a black coffee, and it was absolutely perfect—strong, rich, and full of flavor without being bitter. You can really taste the quality of the beans. It had the boldness I was looking for, but it was also super smooth.
The service was fast and efficient, which I really appreciated. Even though the mall was busy, I got my coffee quickly without any hassle. It’s a great spot to grab a quality cup of coffee while shopping or taking a break. The location is convenient, and the overall atmosphere is nice and welcoming.
If you’re a coffee lover and appreciate a strong, flavorful brew, I definitely recommend stopping here. I’ll be back for sure!
