Morris County runs on coffee, and the good news is you do not need a drive-thru chain to get a great cup. Our towns are full of independent shops where the beans are roasted in small batches, the lattes are handcrafted, and the owners know their regulars by name. Here are eight local coffee shops across Morris County worth a stop.
Boonton Coffee Co. (Boonton)
602 Main Street, Boonton
Boonton Coffee Co. is a small batch specialty roaster that has become an anchor of Main Street. Beans are roasted fresh and bagged with the roast date, and the cafe stays open into the evening most nights, which makes it as good for a late study session as it is for a morning pick-me-up.
Java Smugglers (Boonton)
922 Main Street, Boonton
Boonton is officially a two coffee shop town. Java Smugglers pours low acid volcanic coffee from Bali and sells bourbon barrel aged whole beans, alongside teas, smoothies, and pastries at its cafe and health bar, open seven days a week. We profiled what makes Java Smugglers one of Boonton’s most unique cafes and it has only gotten better since.
Sunday Motor Co. Cafe (Madison)
27 Kings Road, Madison
Set in a converted 1950s service garage, Sunday Motor Co. blends motoring culture with a serious cafe program. The food menu goes well beyond pastries, and the space fills up fast on weekends. It is one of the most distinctive cafe settings in New Jersey, let alone Morris County.
Sweet Vinyl Cafe (Denville)
23 Diamond Spring Road, Denville
Coffee in the front, crates of records all around. Sweet Vinyl Cafe is a record store, cafe, gift shop, and performance space rolled into one, with new and used LPs to flip through while you sip. It is a Denville downtown favorite for a reason.
LOKL Cafe (Morristown)
80 South Street, Morristown
LOKL Cafe serves direct trade coffee, handcrafted drinks, and fresh baked goods in the heart of Morristown. The shop has built such a following that it opened a second location in SoHo in New York City, but the original South Street spot keeps its neighborhood feel.
Roast Coffee House (Morristown)
74 South Street, Morristown
Just down the block, Roast Coffee House takes an upscale, design forward approach with a deeply curated drink menu. Set slightly off the South Street bustle, it is the quieter, more polished counterpart to Morristown’s busy cafe scene.
The Coffee Potter (Long Valley)
24 Schooleys Mountain Road, Long Valley
The Coffee Potter is a neighborhood coffee shop built on community, care, and connection in the Long Valley section of Washington Township. It is the kind of place where you come for the coffee and stay because you ran into three people you know.
Endulzarte (Rockaway Borough)
30 Wall Street, Rockaway
Part Colombian dessert shop, part cafe, Endulzarte pairs its coffee with tres leches, crepes, waffles, and traditional Colombian treats. We covered Endulzarte when it charmed its way into Rockaway Borough, and it remains one of the sweetest coffee stops in the county.
One County, Eight Great Cups
From a 1950s garage in Madison to a record shop in Denville, Morris County’s coffee scene is proof that local beats corporate every time. Grab a cup, support a neighbor, and tell them Shop Morris County sent you.
