Stopped in this morning on a whim. I had been desperately searching for coffee and this place showed up like it was kismet! The shop itself is the cutest, coziest place and I wish I had more time to veg and try out all the goodies! I ordered the pumpkin spice latte and the cinnamon bun latte and they were absolutely delightful. The syrups they use are some sort of natural, organic something and you can taste the difference. The owners / barista are so warm and friendly and personable which was so refreshing so early in the morning. I had an absolutely phenomenal experience and I can’t wait to come back!

A Family Affair in Frenchtown

Pulling into Frenchtown on my motorcycle, I wasn’t expecting much from the quaint coffee shop I stumbled upon. I braced myself for overpriced coffee and snooty service, but what I got was the complete opposite. The moment I walked in, I felt the warm, friendly vibe that echoed the Sly and the Family Stone song “Family Affair.”

The staff, some of whom are related to their owner, made me feel right at home. The coffee was reasonably priced and delicious, and the service was genuinely friendly. But what really blew me away was the vintage, fully functional typewriter they have set up for customers to use. While sipping espresso, you can clack away on the keys, and write a letter or anything you like. Just keep it PG-Rated! 😉

The coffee shop also has good of parking, even for motorcycles, and a lovely shaded outdoor seating area. I’m already looking forward to my next trip back to New York City so I can stop in again.

I went in there on whim yesterday and ordered a Golden milk chai latte with pumpkin spice was absolutely amaaazing! Woow! I’ve actually never tried gluten free chocolate chips and honestly this was the best cookie I’ve ever had and I have a deep love for sweets. We also tried the hummus salad. It was a great little app to split btwn two. The hummus was nice and thick, it came with bread,cucumbers,carrots, celery and olives. Great price point as well.

Me and my husband drive an hour to come to this coffee shop. We fell in love with the atmosphere as soon as we walked in and fell head over heels for the unique coffee. The owner Lenny is such a kind soul and takes pride in what he does. Great vibes here and even greater coffee!

***2 1/2 stars***

It’s unusual for me (and I suspect most others) to go to a coffeehouse and have a negative experience. They practically specialize in good vibes, and they’re giving you caffeine, often in a big mug – what could go wrong? This was an odd visit. For the sake of the primarily tourist contingent (every single person who came in while I was there was from out of town), I hope it was an aberration, but it was heavy on mediocrity and light on execution.

I stopped by yesterday (Thursday) in the mid-afternoon for a latte and a light bite during a quick cameo appearance in the Kingdom of Hunterdon. Full disclosure – I grew up one town over in Milford, so I’m very familiar with this area and there’s honestly a reason why locals tend to avoid the Frenchtown downtown area like the plague. It can get very congested, especially on the summer weekends, and it’s full of overpriced tourist traps. In some ways I’d argue it’s worse than the more famous Lambertville to the south because it’s not nearly as big as that town so everything is just condensed into about three blocks worth of insanity.

Perfect Day is located in that cute corner of Bridge St where it turns in toward Route 12 and becomes Race St, on the former site of Buck’s. Despite the fact that it wasn’t even the weekend yet, the town was pretty bustling and a number of tourists were milling about. When I walked in, there were no other customers but that seems to have just been luck – a line of three or four people materialized shortly after I sat down, and there was never another time when I had the place to myself. So at the very least, it’s getting a ton of foot traffic; it must be a madhouse in a nice Saturday.

The man behind the counter (who bore a strong resemblance to character actor Saul Rubinek) was friendly to me and everyone else who came in, but unfortunately didn’t seem to have much of a barista skillset or customer service background. I ordered a rose latte, along with a blueberry crumb cake-like pastry at his recommendation. The rose latte didn’t contain any rose flavoring (he’d clearly forgotten it), and the crumb cake was just okay, a bit on the dry side. I think it would have been significantly better if it had been warmed up; arguably that’s on me for not suggesting it, but he also didn’t provide it as an option, which I think a coffee place should be doing with those types of baked goods. Also a little odd (not necessarily a negative), but when I was asked for the size of my latte, small or large, and picked small, I was told it came in the same cup as a large. That strikes me as a pretty obvious inventory addition/upgrade – why would you want the optic of a coffee mug that doesn’t look full?

The other weird part of this was the interior of the coffee place. I actually assumed based on my visit that this was a VERY new establishment because it didn’t look completely unpacked/moved in. There were plenty of obligatory set pieces that you’d associate with a coffee place, including local art on the walls and a random typewriter on a table, but there was also a pile of magazines under a chair. That just looked sloppy. There were a few areas like that with items that just hadn’t been put away, which wasn’t the best optic. The bathroom could be a potential issue for them too. Per my attached picture, I didn’t even realize until I’d used the facilities that the window was completely open and there was an unobscured view should a peeping tom have been lurking nearby. Hopefully my activities were unnoticed.

The price point is actually pretty good, given what you’re offered and the area. My total came to $14, which included the latte, the pastry and a $7 greeting card (which means the piece of cake and latte only would have been $7 total; it’s not unusual to encounter a $7 latte by itself in this day and age). That’s probably the biggest selling point by far here.

There’s another coffee shop just down the street. The next time I’m in the area, I’m going to give that one a shot instead. Hopefully their bathroom is a bit more private at least.

Perfect Day Cafe is pretty perfectly named. Though the newest addition to the Frenchtown coffee/tea market, it’s a welcome addition with its own unique twist. Their cutely named specialty lattes are tasty and unique, with my favorite being the Earl Grey-based London Fog. Their offerings of pastries were equally delicious, though it was a little surprising that the pastries cost more than the very-reasonably priced lattes. Service is friendly and often accompanied by some equally warm chatting. Picking up a pastry and a latte, then heading to nearby Sunbeam Park makes a perfect day indeed!

Gross they allow big (pet) dogs inside this shop right next to the food. Found a dog hair on my muffin and won’t be back. Pretty sure it’s a health code violation and it’s obviously encouraged.
