2. Starbucks

343 Millburn Ave Millburn, NJ 07041

Phone number: (973) 258-1986

What they are saying: Stopped in because I had some time before my flight departed at Newark airport. Seating is limited and it can get very busy quickly but the baristas give quality service. The restrooms were clean and the coffee was fresh. One barista in particular, Jordan made me an amazing salted caramel mocha! He is a really cool guy that Starbucks is lucky to have and made the experience worth the trip. Would definitely stop in again, great small shop feel for such a big coffee chain.

3. Common Lot

27 Main St Millburn, NJ 07041

Phone number: (973) 467-0494

What they are saying: First of all I must say that our server Angie is amazing! She knew everything about the menu and special. She was very attentive. It's a BYOB and she never let our glasses run too low. The employees here work as a team to assure your experience is a memorable one. They made us feel like the only guests in the room even though this place is always packed! So make a reservation. The food is perfection. Each ingredient used in the dishes adds to the full bite, nothing goes unfinished! The ambiance is warm and cozy, yet modern with a hint of rustic flare. It is the perfect date night spot. We like to start with the bison tartare and end with the cheese plate and usually get everything in between. Another favorite is the open kitchen and the cleanliness through the whole restaurant. At the end we like to enjoy the French press coffee and desserts just to top off the night! Highly recommended.

4. Squirrel & The Bee

Phone number: (973) 467-8833

What they are saying: I got a honey ginger oolong tea and a taro milk bubble tea. Both were phenomenal. The service was great too and the girl answered all my questions and offered some samples to help make decision. Can't wait to go again and try one of the many awesome drinks they have on display.

6. The Able Baker

What they are saying: Next Door is a welcome addition to Millburn. Located "next door" to the famous Millburn Deli. Open for breakfast and lunch only. No takeout as yet. The businesses must be related. One orders at the counter and staff brings the food to your table. Breakfast is eggs from plain to skillets and omelets. Plus waffles, pancakes etc. Full selection of coffee drinks and tea. Lunch is burgers, flatbread pizza and some other items. Children's menu too. We had huevos rancheros, veggie eggs skillet and King Louis french toast. All were good. We will be back soon for lunch.

What they are saying: Loved this place so much. Tasty and cheap bagels and you really feel like you're getting a taste of the "real" Millburn if you come in on a weekend morning. Gotta love any breakfast spot that will serve your bagel on a real plate, your coffee in a real mug, and encourage you to sit a while. (They've got copious seating, and more outside oh nice days!)
