Uncle Milton’s cafe

you're on jefferson street in hoboken, which isn't the part of town most people default to, and that's part of what makes uncle milton's work. it sits at 1119, a few steps off the kind of block that rewards people who actually know the neighborhood rather than ones following a top-ten list. the regulars here aren't casual about it, they come back with the kind of loyalty that only builds when a place is consistently doing something right. you don't have to take anyone's word for that. just show up on a weekday morning when hoboken is moving at full pace and watch how many people make this specific stop their specific stop. the flat white is a reasonable place to start.
