Nectar Cafe

Incredibly cute café with excellent food. I tried the buffalo tempeh wrap which was flavorful and had a great texture. Will absolutely be back to try more !

Such a wonderful little café set behind the strip mall and adjacent to the yoga studio. This place should really be more visible to the public with its great juices and healthy vegan food options. Thankfully, I discovered it on Unilocal.The staff was helpful and made great recommendations. Got the Grass is Greener smoothie, the southwest black bean burger and the health salad. Loved everything! If you have resolved to eat better this year… Go to Nectar Café!

Cheery café and the food is wonderful and I not even a vegan! Will return often!

Found this place thanks to Unilocal!Do not be put off by the weird strip mall location. Just walk in the door and it’s right there on your left. We went in the morning and ordered several items to go, to be eaten later for lunch. Quinoa salads and black bean burger were really good… and the BBQ tempeh «wings» were amazing! All the food kept well and traveled well (we took it for lunch on a hike). I will definitely be back next time I’m in the area. The girls working were very nice — only wished they had coffee! (Thankfully Starbucks is nearby!)

Everything at this place is DELICIOUS and HEALTHY!!! As a vegan I’m so lucky to have this place 2 miles from my home. I will support it and tell everyone I know! The food is so good. I’ve had the raw lasagna, the pizza bites, the summer salad, the zucchini pasta and seitan meatball (they haven’t had this in a while & I’d love to see it brought back). And the desserts and incredible. Vegan cookie dough balls, cinnamon rolls, and more. More people need to eat here and try out how good everything is. I would love for them to expand the menu & offer more meals both ready-​to-​eat prepackaged and made to order.

I don’t go here all the time because it is a bit pricey for small portions. However, when I do go, the food is always amazing. Last time I was there I ordered the mint chocolate chip shake, mac&cheese, lasagna, and chia pudding and it was all amazing. They have a good variety of both raw and cooked vegan foods

I absolutely want to live right next door to this place! It may be a good thing that it is far from my house as I would be broke!
This is in a strip plaza off the beaten path and if you were not aware that it was there, you would probably miss it. I did my normal research before heading to NYC for any raw, vegan cafes. This was my first stop and I exercised significant willpower and didn’t buy everything that I wanted and only had a tiny piece of a few of the things, even though I was starving, since I had lunch reservations at a restaurant in the city.
I purchased a cold pressed beet juice, the cinnabuns, cookie dough balls. All SO good.
I literally have been weighing whether or not I should make a trip down there to stock up! I have to go down to NYC again in a few weeks and this is going to be a stop on my way home, so I can stock up.
P. S.–my BFF that went with me texted me after we went pretty much saying the same thing — that she is thinking of driving back down and that was her favorite stop of the trip! We went to about 15 natural food stores/​cafes/​restaurants that day and both agree this some of the best stuff all day!

yummy!
my daughter takes a music class in the building so that’s how I found this place and, while I’m not a vegan, I have eaten a lot of vegan food over the years and this place is great! I had a smoothie and the vegan tuna salad wrap which was delish! made with beans, artichoke, potato and other goodness it was really satisfying and filling. will be back for sure!

I’ve eaten here a few times in the past and always loved most of the food. Their Falling for Maple salad and the vegan date brownies are my favorite! I love that you can get juice with plenty of ginger in it. I’m not a big fan of the Indian green soup with the fake cheese, but I can’t say that I’ve ever had a bad experience eating here.

What’s not to love about this little gem off the beaten path?!
The rundown:
1. Vegan café offering many GF options – cooked (think soups and stews), raw (salads, and the like), juice, smoothies, and of course… dessert (insert heart-​eyed emoji here). My favorite items include the raw pizza bites, fall salad, lasagna, sweet potato stew, mac and cheese, and ANY of the desserts. You really cannot go wrong.
2. The people who work here are super friendly and helpful.
3. The prices are very reasonable.
4. As others have mentioned, it’s a bit tricky to find. My GPS did NOT bring me to the right place. It’s in a building adjacent to the train tracks there on whatever street that is (very helpful, I know!), behind CVS I believe. You do have to drive back off the road quite a ways, but once you’ve found it, you’re golden. Call them if you need assistance – I’m sure they deal with this quite frequently!
In short, Nectar Café is definitely worth the trip, if not for the delicious savory options, then most certainly for their desserts!

Quaint little local spot. Not the easiest to find… Drive around a while before landing, which is because it’s tucked waaay back off the road. On top of that, it’s inside a building that hosts other stores lol. It had signage which was the only way I was finding it lol.
Menu offers lots of options!! totally great selection. It could be consolidated a little better, and the dark green letters need to be lighter lol cuz it’s hard to read, but all in all not too bad.
I will say take it easy on the ginger!!! Holy moly! I did get a smoothie with ginger, but a little goes a loooooong way hahaha. Chill with that ginger, ginger lol. (Made it very difficult to finish my $ 10 smoothie)
All in all nice little jammer. Fair prices, friendly people, good ingredients.
(Sorry but the ginger jam and difficult to find spot gets you 4*… But I still have 4 Nectar ;)

Went there this past weekend and had the black bean burger. It was really good!
I’m the past I have also had their protein packed quinoa salad and the «tuna» salad. Both very good.

Awesome juices! Friendly staff. A little out of the way but honestly worth it. Prices were very reasonable. And the pumpkin fudge was yum!

So, I had just spent most of my time after a class at Ridgewood Coffee Company and I was in the mood for something to eat, I drove over to Nectar in hopes of something quick and healthy, an that’s exactly what I found. Now, I’m no vegan but I decided to get a kale salad with peanut dressing and I can say that I am officially a fan of kale! everything was fresh and done with a purpose as flavors were well balanced and it all fit together perfectly. Sadly portions are on the small side which is a bummer when the food is so good and you could go for way more! Although the portions are small the prices are fair for a small business in the area that is focused on organics and I managed to get a salad for just under five bucks. Honestly if you don’t walk out happy with what you get here you probably have no sense of taste. I’m going to head back soon so I can go and try the juices!

Nectar café is hidden tucked inside a yoga studio in Glen Rock and is by far the best place around for healthy juices and smoothies I am so happy this place exists. I love their Green Detox Lemonade (kale, lemon, ginger apple) delicious!

Very expensive for what it is. If I’m paying $ 7+ for a FRESH juice, it needs to be made in front of me & not pre-​made, taken from a refrigerator. Juices are made and consumed, not refrigerated.

Love, love, love their juices and that’s what keeps me coming back. Everything is always fresh and delicious. They have a great variety of cold pressed juices and I frequently stop buy to pick up a bunch for the week. The service however leaves something to be desired. I can’t tell you how many times I have walked in there and not even been acknowledged let alone said hi too.
I would give this place 5 stars if it wasn’t for the awkward energy I have to endure.

So happy to have found this hidden gem! This little juice bar is vegetarian and mostly vegan. They have tons of juice and smoothie options which are customizable. I tried the peanut butter cup and asked for kale in it. It was delicious! I also got a great kale salad and raw vegan gluten free donut holes. Everything tasted great and fresh. Loved all the vegan options!
The staff was very nice and I was loving the 90s alternative music they had playing. It’s a tiny place, nowhere to sit and eat, just a grab and go spot. Perfect place for a snack after yoga at Naturally Yoga, which is in the same building.
They have soups too and offer juice fasts for $ 50 a day. Just wish the hours were better… Closes at around 1pm on weekends and 6pm during the week.

The Juices are good, but expensive! ($ 7 for apple, pear, beet, ginger, lemon «BLISS»)
They are hesitant to make juices on the spot for you and try to sell you the cold-​pressed juices in the fridge from the morning. Those are fresh but i like absolutely fresh juice if I am going to pay that much.
Nice addition to Glen Rock… needs main street signage though.

Great little hidden-​away juice and smoothie bar in a building with a yoga studio and karate school. Currently, they serve juices and smoothies, but do they have a small fridge with quinoa salad and other snacks. During the week, they have soup, and they’re hoping to add sandwiches soon. Excellent selection with at least a dozen smoothies that can be customized to your liking. I tried the Breathless smoothie, which included kale, spinach, banana, apple, strawberries, and filtered water. Very clean and has a friendly staff!
