Northern Light Espresso Bar and Cafe

Nice place for a quite morning coffee, the coffee is decent and breakfast burrito is tasty n filling. It has 2nd floor which is cozy n detached to go about your coffee business

This has been my favorite Scranton cafe for the past two decades. It has always been an escape for me, a lovely place to go and recharge, meet with friends, refresh on a long day and make the most of the short days. The quality of food and drink never disappoint. The staff is always beautifully welcoming & competent. There is space for chatting with friends as well as space for quiet studying or working.
My least favorite part is trying to find a parking spot, as it is on the square. But once you do, it is a great central location to wander and explore downtown.
Absolutely worth a visit! ❤️

Walked in to hear great classics from the 60s... We're off to a good feel start. Eclectic decor, small but airy two-level cafe. Sunday crowd pleasantly conversing or getting something done on their laptops. The eats look great and from the kitchen that's visible from the counter it's clear things are fresh and made in-house.

To be clear, this is a coffee and tea shop. The food is good, but very limited. I didn't remove any stars because it's not meant to be a cafe, just a coffee shop.

That being said, the atmosphere is very relaxed, chill, and pleasant. The teas are all excellent, I've heard the coffee is fantastic, and in general it's a nice place to come with your lover or friend and chat over a cup of coffee. Definitely the best coffee place on the square.

favorite cafe in scranton, super cozy place to read, play chess, study etc & the tea is delicious! Super friendly staff! :)

The shop is so so I gotta coffee and fruit cup and the fruit cup was rotten as attached in picture.
I told them and they throw it away and refund me.

Employees were rude and unfriendly. They are so skimpy with portions that the cream cheese doesn’t even cover a bagel.

Shop local! Great little find on our overnight stop in Scranton. Well-prepared coffee, pastries, bagels, yogurt and quiche. All for a to-go cup and forgo the top. If coffee is not your thing, they offer tea as well.

A wonderful place to stop and have a snack or coffee. Great atmosphere, helpful staff, clean bathrooms and seating areas, and a beautiful view of the square. There was various seating available, ADA compliant, and the food and drinks were delicious! Definitely recommend. I stayed at the Hilton and enjoyed going to this coffee shop which is a short walk from the lobby.

Just got hot chocolates, so cant comment on food and coffee. Nice setting.
