Coperaco Café

Absolute gem! This local cafe was amazing. I ordered the mango matcha and it was delicious! So fresh and not overwhelming, overly sweet, or bitter at all!! The cappuccinos were rich and the espresso was very good. There was a wide range of pastries, I ordered the lemon blueberry pound cake and banana bread pecan crunch. Both were amazing and not overwhelming. Not to mention the inside of the cafe is so aesthetic. Whether you’re looking for a quick coffee grab, a place to hang out, or study/work, this cafe offers it all! I saw people with computers, families gathering, runners grabbing coffee, and kids playing, the atmosphere welcomes everyone.

This cafe definitely goes all out in terms of their atmosphere and overall ambiance. A great place to study and get some work done as they have WIFI and many places to sit. The one downside is that while their coffee is good, the food is very lackluster. While the actual cafe station is small in relation to the rest of the cafe, the service was very timely and kind. They even allowed to us to re warm up a food item we ordered.

The coffees were strong and tasty. The avocado toast was well made with a nice side salad. Parking could be an issue but we went a Sunday morning and we found parking with no problem. It is inside the apartment complex but it had lots of areas to sit in. Our food and drinks came pretty quickly, even though it was busy.

Extremely Disappointed – Lied About Muffin Freshness, No Respect When I Raised Concern I’m writing this review out of genuine frustration and disappointment. This morning, I asked the staff if the muffins were freshly made today or leftovers from yesterday. The person behind the counter assured me they were made fresh this morning, even emphasizing, “We never sell muffins from the previous day.” I explained that I have a very sensitive stomach and cannot eat food that’s not fresh or that has been reheated. I made it very clear: if the muffin was made yesterday, I wouldn’t buy it. He insisted again it was made this morning. But when I took a bite, the muffin was cold all the way through—clearly not something that had just come out of the oven. When I returned to speak with them about it—not to ask for a refund or make a big complaint, but just to be honest and prevent this from happening to others—I was met with complete disrespect. The blonde female staff member kept grinding coffee beans while I was talking, making it almost impossible to communicate. No one paused to actually listen to what I was saying. No one asked how I was feeling after I mentioned that the muffin had upset my stomach. Instead, they immediately asked if I wanted a refund or a replacement. That completely misses the point. I don’t care about a $3 muffin. My issue was: 1. I was lied to. 2. I was misled into eating something that caused me physical discomfort. 3. When I brought it up respectfully, I was ignored, talked over, and treated like an inconvenience. All I wanted was a simple: “We’re sorry that happened. We’ll be more honest next time. Let us know if you continue to feel unwell.” That’s it. But instead, I got noise, indifference, and a complete lack of accountability. If a customer asks whether something is fresh, tell the truth. Not everyone can handle old food. I could’ve easily chosen a croissant instead. It’s not about being picky—it’s about trust and basic transparency. I sincerely hope this place does better in the future. A sincere apology would’ve gone a long way. But this kind of dishonest behavior, followed by dismissive customer service, is unacceptable.

This is hands down my favorite coffee shop. The coffee is always amazing, but what makes it extra special is Leslie. She’s not just great at what she does… she makes every cup with so much love. Her cappuccinos are always spot on, rich and smooth, and honestly the best I’ve ever had. Leslie is the reason I keep coming back.

came here on presidents’ day and before making the drive over, we tried calling to confirm if they were open. the numbers on their socials either went to voicemail or some sort of facility. parking was a little annoying, we drove around for ten to fifteen minutes for a spot to eventually open up. immediately upon entering it’s a quiet, lovely environment with very light chatter. it’s aesthetically pleasing with many working on their laptops. there is seating, mostly close quarters, and often taken up so you will have to walk around to find an opening. thankfully a high top with two chairs opened up after we ordered. after placing an order, you’ll get a receipt with a number on it. they call out your corresponding number so you have to wait near the counter. we ordered hot caramel oat lattes with chocolate croissants. coffee was okay, light sweetness which is preferred and the pastry was fresh all totaling a little over $10 a person. overall 4.5 stars from atmosphere, food quality, and service.

There is no place that makes me happier than Coperaco! Having a bad day at work? Get an iced mocha! Having an amazing day? Get an iced mint lemonade! I love how they customize my drinks and are so personable. It’s not like visiting a brand name coffee place! They know you there and treat you like family!

We got some coffee and pastries. Coffee was quite good but the pastries were so amazing. Especially the raspberry cheese Danish was extraordinary. Also the other pastries looked drool worthy. Also seemed like a chill place to hangout and wfh, good atmosphere l. Service was meh-meh.

Probably one of the best bakeries/coffee sports around. Cool modern vibe and design. Great for working remotely, but gets a bit too busy sometimes. They have some of the best pastries, hot meals, snacks, all sorts of coffee, tea, and wine!

Walking in the atmosphere is immediately relaxed. Lots of workspaces to plug-in peripherals. Sequestered workstation area with two floors plenty of lighting from skylights. atmosphere is definitely on point. The trestle is latte and the mocha strawberry latte summer items. Also tried the chicken fajita quiche, very tender and very flavorful dog friendly.

The coffees were strong and tasty. The avocado toast was well made with a nice side salad. Parking could be an issue but we went a Sunday morning and we found parking with no problem. It is inside the apartment complex but it had lots of areas to sit in. Our food and drinks came pretty quickly, even though it was busy.

Finally got to visit Coperaco! I have seen this place on IG and I am a sucker for a cafe with seating and fancy coffee. I am so sad I didn't bring my laptop so I could work because the vibes are everything in here. I wasn't a huge fan of the pistachio latte I got, it was good but could have had more pistachio in my opinion (may I suggest a pistachio cold foam??). Esp for the price it definitely tasted a bit regular and not as nutty as I've had in other cafes. Nonetheless I will be back! Next time, I'll definitely plan to grab one of their brunch plates (ends at 2 on the weekends) and stay all day.

This is probably one of the best cafés to do work in a calm environment. The environment is one that I definitely look for when I'm trying to envision a comfortable and calm Café. I ordered a chicken baguette, which was delicious as well as an almond croissant that was also equally delicious. The service was quick and kind, but there was not much to say more about that. Overall, an excellent experience here.

This is such a cute little cafe! Their street parking can be a little hectic, depending on when you go, but it's not terrible. Normal for the area. Food is fresh, and looks great. Staff were not the friendliest (no "hello" or "have a nice day"), but not rude either. Taste-wise, the drinks were great! The food was hit or miss. The bagels were a bit tough but the fruits were fresh. They don't have much seating. While the furniture is beautiful, it takes up a lot of space and doesn't offer enough room. Many people were saving seats, as well as small groups taking up large tables. I went during a weekend morning, when we were the only ones on line, and there was no space for four people. My group and I sat outside and there was garbage and leftover food out. Overall, I'd come back again if I was in the area. The price is reasonable and the food is ok.

This is definitely the place to come chill and enjoy coffee. The ambiance is spectacular. It's got multiple rooms, seatings, areas, desk, tables, etc for you to find the right spot with the right lighting noise level etc to enjoy your coffee. This place is pretty spacious and the likelihood of not finding space is little to none. Would definitely come back to this place again in the future

This is a nice local café which is easily accessible from the Harrison Path station. They have all the typical barista type drinks in the morning and from looking at their menu, it looks like they have wine and other drinks set up for the evening. I tried a bagel breakfast sandwich and it was ok. The Americano was really good. Service was ok. Décor is beautiful and welcoming. Overall, it's a nice place.

7.0/10 Stopped by Coperaco in the morning to get some work done. I had just flown in on a red-eye from Orange County so I desperately needed caffeine. Came here for vacation and I'm so glad I found this cute cafe. The coffee is tasty, standard but won't blow your mind. The pastries, on the other hand, are amazing, at least the one I had. I got: Sweet Cold Foam Cold Brew $5.10 | Spinach Bistro $? It was a cold and rainy day but Cold Brew is always one of my top picks and I'm glad I added the Sweet Cold Foam. It added a nice touch of sweetness without being overly sweet, just how I like it. The coffee was good but wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Per usual, I never finish mine as I'm quite sensitive to caffeine and even drinking half, I'm constantly needing to release my bladder. But this is perfect for me because then I have coffee for the next day. The bistro, however, was so so good, buttery and flaky pastry with a creamy, savory spinach filling. They heated it up which probably attributed to it tasting so good. I could have eaten three of these but I only got one and it was the perfect snack. Their website mentions their dedication to honoring the land, however, there is no specific information provided about eco-packaging or sustainability practices, bummer. It also suggests that they source their coffee from various regions around the world and they mentioned that they have a roasting plant in Brooklyn. They're located on a small street in the Urby apartment complex. This area looks quite new and nice compared to other parts of Harrison that I've seen. It seems mostly like a residential area, I tried to walk around but there wasn't much, mostly homes. I took an Uber here but according to other reviewers, it looks like there's a paid, unvalidated parking garage or metered street parking available. The inside is very cute and modern, giving off treehouse vibes. There's plenty of inside seating and outside seating. I will, however, mention that the coffee shop does get quite loud even when there aren't a lot of people. I think it's because it's a large room with high ceilings which intensifies echoes. I had to take a lot of work calls and clients were having a really hard time hearing me. I tried to work outside, however, the wifi didn't seem to reach well. Service was fine, although, I felt that some of the employees were a bit curt. Came on a Wednesday around 9 AM and there was no wait to order, my drink was ready shortly after. I think for the quality and quantity, the price is right. Coffee will never be affordable in my eyes, I see it as a luxury to have every once in a while.

The coffee is average it's not anything special Salmon omelette 5/10 the best thing about the place is the decor lol but there is not enough seating

Awesome food, coffee, and setting. This place is awesome. They heat up the breakfast sandwiches and croissants which are delicious. People are super nice.

One of my favorite coffee shops! So aesthetically pleasing, it reminds me of a tree house to say the least. First time I was here was years ago and decided to make a return last weekend for a chill Sunday and get some work done. The menu is pretty decent in pricing and with variety. I ordered the avocado toast and eggs and a iced latte. Pretty good! I sat down near the entrance and it was a beautiful day out but it was pretty full inside. The location is pretty spacey. They have an upstairs and downstairs and they are connected to the Urby which are apartments. There is street parking but there are meters. Service was pretty quick and staff were friendly! Definitely recommend for anyone who wants to enjoy the aesthetics and get some work done or just chill!

Got a strawberry matcha here to go and it was super good! I've heard this is a very "instagramable" cafe so it sounds like a nice place for a morning pick me up or to spend with friends.

Fast, attentive, impeccable, clean, calm area for workspace, reading, big with several seating, very different in ambiance than your regular coffee shops around here. I highly recommend this place

Looking for a place to work from home or study, this is your place. I've been to a few cafes in NJ and this one is by far the most relaxing and cozy to get your work done. I ordered peppermint tea and a croissant from here and both were delicious. The tea wasn't sweetened or anything but that was my preference. They also have a fridge with a bunch of good drinks ranging from kombuchas to different beers and energy drinks. I would 100 percent recommend this place if you want to get out of the house and get some work done!

Cute place. Horrible Staff. All it needs is some friendlier workers or baristas that enjoy making coffee.

Omg such a cute cute place! Food is good too! Price isn't bad either. Iced freddo (I think that's what I got) was really good Service is okay Lots of cute seating areas I think charging $2 for like a quarter of avocados is expensive but I guess everything is getting pricy. I would def stop by more often if it was closer. I guess it's a good thing it's not close by. This place is Seems like it changes to a wine bar thing and night! So so cute!

They DO NOT know how to make a decaf latte. I have given several tries but it tastes extremely burnt almost every time. There is a different technique and temperature required for making a decaf latte and they simply do not know. As a shop that pretty much exclusively sells coffee and invested in a beautiful, expensive machine this is something they really should master. Otherwise, everything else as far as the service, pastries, regular lattes and ambiance is very nice.

Coperaco was on my list to visit during my trip. The design of the shop is beautiful. There's so much greenery. There's a few tables available to sit at. They also sell pastries, breakfast items, and some alcoholic beverages. I ordered a vanilla latte with oat milk and an almond croissant. The coffee was aromatic and bold. The croissant was flaky and warm. The middle wasn't overly sweet. This seems like a nice coffee shop to come and study or get some work done. They have those long tables with lamps and sockets on top. The customer service was good. I would stop by again when I'm in town.

Was in NJ for the weekend, and wanted a really cute coffee shop.This place is so cute! They had a lot of space to sit and do work if needed. They had a lot of coffee,latte, and espresso options. The coffee was really good. I had the caramel latte with oat milk and sweet cream foam. Also for breakfast I had the ham and Swiss croissant, that was really good as well. The cashiers were welcoming. Definitely will come back!

This place is so adorable. I love the ivy all over the outside so I decided to stop in. I've been to Europe quite a few times and it reminded me of the quaint cafes there. I love that everything seem to be surrounded by nature. I kept it simple and got what I would usually get anywhere else, a café mocha, which was very delicious and just for posterity I got a strawberry tart, which was surprisingly good! If you're in the Harrison area, definitely stop by.

Harrison, NJ // Spacious cafes are hard to come by around the neighborhood, but Coperaco offers aesthetically appealing indoor and outdoor spaces. It was a busy Sunday, but the floor ceiling with high ceilings, airy front outdoor seating, backyard seating and second floor accommodated both seated customers and ordering customers just fine. The iced mocha, almost croissants and plain croissants were all delicious.

I was staying at a hotel nearby and chanced upon this coffee shop. It is a green paradise I loved all the indoor plants it was stunning. I had a dessert and coffee with my pup which was an added bonus. Food and ambience was very nice.

Alyssa from the Element Harrison had told me that there was an independent coffee bar 'just down da street', so I took her recommendation and visited the next morning. Coperaco does not look like it's open from the outside but once instead it's an oasis of coffee heaven. The coffee bar and its attendees are super friendly and OMG the smells of the coffee grinding and brewing are pure nirvana. Inside is very trendy and very remote work friendly or student studying. It's just stunning inside and the big windows and the greenery really give you a blend of Southern American and European coffee house vibe. They also sell their own whole beans in many different varieties. Just don't take your coffee to go. Order inside and enjoy your coffee, you'll thank me later.

Such a vibe! Decor is beautiful inside and outside. We visited on a sunday and place starting filling up around 11:30am and onwards. There is plenty of seating and nicely spaced out from each other. We love the high ceilings, open concept and of course the plants! Some of them are real actually. We got their cappuccino and latte and they were perfect for this wintery day. They have a breakfast menu, pastries, some sweets and they even serve alcohol. They are pet-friendly as well! Seen 4 dogs already for this visit. Lol One of the prettiest cafes in NJ! Definitely a must visit!

I love this place! They serve amazing coffee! This coffee shop is unique and beautiful and the baristas are super nice. This is my Second time coming here and I love it

Nice layout and food wasn't bad but I can't recommend this place. I don't mind waiting but stuff came out slow, our matcha lattes tasted like regular milk with green coloring, and some of the workers had an attitude. Feeling nice so I'll give it 2 stars rather than my initially planned 1 star. seriously an insult to matcha drinks everywhere

Ambiance is very relaxing and positive. Service is fast and the mocha tastes really good. The place is designed nicely. I highly recommend.

What a great place to study! Never knew there was so much space and seating in this place. Love the upstairs area with couch, tv, books, large table for multiple people. Cozy and cute. Lots good natural light even on cloudy days. Nice selection of breakfast pastries, hot food, and yogurts. All the favorite coffee drinks are available. Shocker for me was finding out vanilla syrup was free and sits with the sugar and cream. Sweeet. Lol took a risk and had regular milk because I'm just tired of paying extra for alternative milk. I'm still alive to write this review. The latte was just ok. I've had better with stronger tasting espresso. Also, I saw in the evenings they have cocktails, wine, and beer and possible happy hour?? That's awesome. A little something for everybody is this shop.

Really hoping someone in charge reads a few of the other reviews including mine and takes them into account--ambience and atmosphere is beautiful. Quiet place to work from home or study if you're doing that. Their food is pretty good and like that the baristas are bilingual (very helpful!). I've gotten a few beverage items from their menu and so far their mocha latte is pretty yummy and their coffee is okay (sometimes tastes a little burnt). I got a matcha latte this time around and I really think there needs to be more training for the baristas on the pours for coffee and lattes. Barista out two (giant) scoops of matcha into my latte and a matcha isn't supposed to have more than 1 scoop (or 1 teaspoon) of matcha powered in it. The taste completely overwhelmed me when I took a sip, sugar and milk didn't help at all. If I'm paying $6 for a coffee or other flavored latte it would be nice if there was more consistency in how they're made. This isn't a reflection of the baristas ability to make anything---this is totally on the management and helping to provide training. I'll stick to the mocha next time though...

This cafe is so pretty! Indoor spaces is really big with lots of seats Very comfy and clean And drink is not pricy at all. $4 for latte, $2.5 for coffee! I went little too late, they are about to close so I haven't have any chance to try their drink. But I will definitely come back!

I was on the hunt for a good cup of hot chocolate, and this cafe did not disappoint! It was just the right amount of sweetness and richness. I loved the decor too--I was obsessed with the green vines that spread like a canopy!

This place looked like a spot to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee with my wife. The coffee... was alright. I just got a vanilla latte and it just didn't have too much flavor. But the worst, the workers here did not care at all about food safety. They did not greet us when we went to the register, did not seem to know the menu well. I watched the barista sip her own coffee AND eat her own sandwich as she made our beverages!! That's food safety 101. I'll say the croissants tasted nice, and this place obviously caters to students who don't care too much about the service. But if you think this will be a nice place to sit and relax, the price is not worth it and the ambiance doesn't make up for the (lack of) service.

This is definitely going to be one of my go-to cafes in North Jersey! It is super spacious, has an array of different seating, lots of coffee options, and is great for those who are interested in a quiet workplace. I loved the outdoor seating, as well as the cocktail options available, although I did not drink. Prices were fair, and the music was at the perfect volume. I had a chocolate crossaint and a coconut guava refresher beverage that was made with coconut milk. Everything I had was excellent: fresh and tasted delicious. I definitely recommend this place as one for a date, catching up with friends, or a quiet place to work.

great coffee, 100 times better than in starbucks (and its cheeper too). Really nice service. it can be a little bit busy during the day, but you almost always find a place to seat. Highly recommend

I enjoy this place. I stop in frequently for my cappuccino and initially I had to guide the girl into how I wanted it but now it's come to the point where it's a blessing I'm in and I'm out it's delicious the right amount of cinnamon the right amount of a cream the coffee is delicious. I highly recommend this place.

Entering Coperaco is an experience on its own. The ambiance is amazing, it feels like a Swedish Cafe in NJ. The staff is excellent, let alone the quality of the coffees they serve. They have a good variety of options for breakfast and brunch. I have been there several times and see new items on the menu every time I get there. I would highly recommend this café, you won't regret it.

Food: Weak, similar to airline food, I wouldn't return for it. Coffee was coffee. Service: Contrary to most reviews, the service was great, both baristas were kind and courteous. Ambiance: The place is beautiful, it overcame my expectations. I can see it as a reason to return, a business appointment, perhaps a coffee date? Overall: A suburban chic overpriced cafe is the kind of place that makes me crawl inside. Perfect for the plastic world we live in? I'm more attracted to the food experience, where the food is so good the rest is either additional perks or not important cause the food is that good.

Omg I love this coffee shop so much!!! I love how much natural lighting it gets from the big windows and ceiling windows, and the decor is very pleasant and natural (lots of green, wood, and stone colors). It's a great space for doing work, they have many different corners of the cafe, big open networking tables, small round individual tables, large sectional couches, an upstairs that's more quiet and dark, and outdoor space! It's part of an apartment complex, and dog friendly. They offer a variety of sandwiches, pastries, and drinks on their menu, def recommend. I was able to find metered parking without a problem too

this is my first time here. im only going to rate this towards my experience, not the drinks. i just left here about an hour ago, i was in line and my mother and i noticed bugs walking on the pastry's. it was my turn to order, the girl who took my order had an attitude off rip. i nicely told her my mother and i saw a bug all over the croissants. she literally grabbed the fan and put it towards the pastries for 2 seconds and thats it. she said oh" and that was it. like are u serious?! i literally said " it doesn't matter anyway im not going to order those anymore. then she proceeded to ask what i wanted to drink. like u didnt even care to do absolutely nothing about the situation. you literally didnt care about the bugs crawling on the food and she continued to take peoples orders right after like it was nothing. this is dirty and disgusting for the people who eat food there.

Do yourself a favor and visit this beautiful cafe in Newark, NJ. You won't regret!! Our first time here and the cafe has left the best impression. This place is cozy and has beautiful aesthetics. The atmosphere is chill and cool and the bartenders are also really friendly. I asked the bartender for coffee recommendations and she suggested to us the Vanilla Latte and Mocha. They make their vanilla syrup in-house and so we decided to go with her recs and the drinks came out exactly as she mentioned. We also got a tomato-mozarella flatbread and a chocolate croissant and they were both equally delicious Everything from the ambience to food and drinks was absolutely amazing. This place is going to be a staple now. Tip: This place is pet-friendly

Went with friends to study for a few hours over the weekend. Parking was a little difficult to find, but it was the perfect study spot. I really liked the aesthetic of the cafe and there was ample seating, lots of outlets, Wi-Fi, and lamps for extra lighting. I've tried both the cold brew and the americano and the coffee was also really good -- a little on the darker side. I didn't get the chance to try any of their food items, but a friend tried one of the breakfast sandwiches and said it was very tasty.

Wanted to love this super cute café so bad! Honestly the only reason I'm even giving it 2 stars is because of the vibe and decor which were absolutely perfect. Matcha green tea latte- shortly basic. Not enough matcha flavor and it wasn't sweet enough either. I asked to make it sweeter, she put simple syrup which almost did nothing. Didn't want to keep adding more sugar in my body so I left it as is. The pastries didn't look too appealing in my eyes either. They have cold sandwiches daily if you were looking for more of a meal. They let you sit in the back or front which is nice. Return? Maybe if I need a quiet space Outside my apartment to get some work done. Recommend? For the same reason as above.

So good, I came twice. ;-) No, literally. I had an overnight stay at the hotel up the street and I always check for nearby coffee shops. Coperaco came up and I had to check it out. The story behind the interior design was pretty cool and the pictures were a dream for those who are into social media aesthetics. Upon entering, the inside was big! I was so surprised because it's attached to an apartment complex, but that didn't even matter! There is foliage everywhere! There is a lot of natural lighting that comes into this shop and the furniture and colors really complement it. The first time I ordered I had an amazing red velvet muffin and the cold brew with salted caramel cold foam; it needed more sweetness, but it was good nonetheless. On the second day, I had the pumpkin latte and the TBE&G on a brioche. The coffee tasted great, but was lacking in pumpkin flavor and the breakfast sandwich was not warm all the way through. Coperaco has great quality products, but execution and consistency can be worked on. I will say this is a great place to study or get some work done since there is ample room, it's relatively quiet, and has plenty of outlets for you to plug up.

If your looking for a chill, relaxing place here's your spot. They have many areas to sit down and work peacefully. The coffee hit and the almond croissant was delicious. If I had to give a recommendation, only thing that employees be more outgoing but everything was great.

Been here a couple times the first time was shortly after their opening and the second was months later. The setting is awesome. It is equal part chill café with an upscale feel. As far as what they offer, nothing has wowed me. I think their coffee is Nicaraguan which sounds really good and I'm sure it is, but didn't really impress in either visit. On a more recent visit I was told they were out of almond milk. That's not the worst thing, but I'm sure other similar spots small or big time like Starbucks wouldn't let this happen. I've seen mention of croissants in other reviews but both of my visits I didn't see much in the way of food or snacks available. Were they out of this too? If so each visit must have been hit with a rush moments before me coming in. Again the setting is easily the best part about Coperaco. Outdoor seating both in the front and back of café, lounge area, and standard tables, with nice soft lighting. If their offerings are tightened, it can be a nice coffee shop, but as it stands more pretty than anything.

The place is really nice!!! So aesthetic and so much room and very open! The lighting is great. They also have areas that is conducive for studying! Coffee is great and pastries were awesome! Will be back for alcohol and brunch!!! Baristas were nice and helpful! Great service! I highly recommend this place.

This is a comfy warm place in Harrison . So nice to have a cafe nearby with amazing ambience . Urby is beautifully designed and gives a rich look to Harrison I know from ages .

I'm all about the aesthetics of a cafe and this place has captured my heart the minute I walked in, I was swept away by the greenery and decor. The natural lightening and ambience of this place is captivating. I ordered their oat milk latte, and the coffee is pretty standard, it doesn't necessarily blow me away but the ambience captures it all. The music isn't overbearing and it is a great place to study and relax and enjoy by yourself or with some friends. They produce their own beans, so I wonder if the other coffee selections would have a bit more kick than their latte. Love this place and would definitely recommend and come back here again!!
