CLOSEST TO COFFEE HEAVEN Cafe Peanut is a funky little place located in the heart of Journal Square, Jersey City. Dedicated to quality, charming artistic cafe is the closest to Coffee Heaven you will …
Normally love this cafe, the food is fresh and tasty. First complaint I have after 10+ orders is bagel with cream cheese came with next to no cream cheese. Like we're in NJ, load that sucker up! Besides that I always love their food!

I am so mad that I wasted $46+ on this place! They have some nerve calling this "avocado toast" & charging $16.50 for it! Smallest piece of "toast" (wasn't even toasted btw) with the tiniest egg I've seen but even worse was that there was no actual avocado! After taking a couple bites with zero taste of avocado I moved the spring mix aside to see there was NO avocado or avocado mash at all on the bread (see pic). Instead it was just a mix of diced tomato & cucumber & onion mixed with a tiny bit of fake guac-like sauce that tasted like a cup of water had been mixed in (nope can't even call it guac). I dont mind spending money on good avocado toast but no one can call this avocado toast. Talk about ripping off your customers. Thank goodness I ordered the bagel as well or I would've been starving, but even here they were so stingy that there was the thinnest layer of cream cheese possible. Also I ordered a hot Peppermint Mocha and instead they sent me an iced latte. If you're going to charge so much at least provide some quality food. I'm being generous even giving 2 stars. Don't waste your money here.

The portions are minuscule for the price. I ordered a side of hummus that was nearly $4 and it was literally a tablespoon of hummus. Chickpeas and tahini aren't that expensive. I also got 3 strips of bacon for $5. Quarter included for scale

Vegan Breakfast Burrito was alright- the ingredients were healthy but did not taste too fresh, especially the black olives. I would not get it again. Ginger Tumeric Latte Regular was perfect! The 10-vegetable soup was also great.

They are consistent and always handle everything with care. The bacon egg and cheese is my favorite brekky sandwich in JC.
