Paper Plane Coffee Co. - Montclair

Very cute location! This is such a fun and unique twist to coffee. I usually do not like coffee but wow it was great!! The flavors are very smooth and made me want to drink another!

In its natural state, the coffee bean is wrapped in a parchment layer, and enclosed within the red cherry like coffee fruit. The outer layer of the coffee cherry, the layer that gives it its red color is called Sultana in Bolivia, Hashara in Ethiopia; Qishr in Yeman; Cascara in English Spanish). It is also known as Coffee Husk.The coffee husk or Cascara is typically discarded in the milling process.But it is delicious and has health benefits. Traditionally it was brewed like tea) all by itself or blended with coffee beans and brewed like coffee. When blended with coffee beans it reduces the acidity of the coffee and adds Umami.At Paper Plane we don’t get Cascara blended with coffee, but they do have a Cascara drink on the tap). I am told that this drink is seasonal and may not be available in winter. I love the Cascara at Paper Plane with a spoonful of honey.

Superb coffee, creative atmosphere and the lovely location around Montclair downtown. The cold brews are delicious

My gf loves this place. It's quaint and cozy, we wanted to sit, but it's extremely busy, to the point you have to wait outside. They also have two old school arcade games, which I couldn't figure out to work. There merch is also pretty cool, we will be returning and hopefully we will get a seat next time.

The most amazing coffee shop that I've been too. Staff and owner are extremely friendly, decor is awesome, prices are reasonable. The cold brew on tap was some of the best that we've had from a coffee house.
