Reviews for RaonJena Coffee & Dessert in Glastonbury, CT

My husband and I visited recently and absolutely loved the vibe! So many awesome plants to make this place so cozy. Plenty of... seating so dining in and hanging out is not a problem. Great baked goods and food choices as well as a nice drink menu. Lookingforward to visiting again! Read more

Excellent coffee, pastry and baked goods in a beautiful open space, and the owners are great people...highly recommended.

One of my favorite coffee shops in town. The owners are incredibly nice and we've ordered cakes from them, tried many of the... items (macrons, taro crepe cake, espresso tonic amd lemonade tonic are some favorites), and love that the space has expandednow. Less popular but an item that really sets it apart from others are the Bing su dishes. Portions are large so don't beturned away by the price. Do wish there was an additional mochi since the dish is perfect for sharing. Be aware that the hoursare limited, which often makes it hard for us to get to, and closed on Sundays but this is because they are family first smallbusiness and want to be sure to get time with the family (which is why I continue to support them).

First time ordering a Taro mousse cake and it was totally worth it! The consistency of the cake was amazing, unlike any other... cake we have tried. The layers of cake were just the right amount of moist and the mousse flavor was great. We asked to add thefresh fruits at the top as well Read more

raonjena's cakes are always a hit! very accommodating with flavors, and so many to choose from. because of a snow storm I picked... up this particular birthday cake (blueberry yogurt flavor) the day before, and the next day it was still just as moist anddelicious. as for individual slices, I found the crepe cake to be a bit heavy but you can never go wrong with the fruit cakeslices and the taro cheesecake is my all time favorite!

I decided to try this place as it was close to where my parents live and I wanted to support an independent cafe instead of a... chain. It seemed like they had festive holiday drinks, so I thought it would be a fun treat for my roadtrip ahead. I ordered ahot chai latte, and sadly it was the worst chai I've ever had. There was so much spice in it that it burned my throat, yet itwas oddly flavorless. It basically tasted like water with a ton of spices thrown it. I couldn't even take more than a few sipsbefore I tossed it. I also ordered an egg and cheese sandwich and the egg was so runny. It was a mess and not cooked through.That may just be my individual preference, but they did not ask how I wanted the eggs, and I've never actually had an eggsandwich that didn't cook the yolk all the way through as usually it's scrambled. I also threw out the sandwich. It was alsosimply served on plain white bread which I didn't expect from a high-end bakery. I was hoping for a bagel or croissant orEnglish muffin, but the menu didn't specify and I incorrectly assumed. However, I ordered my friend an iced coffee and she likedit well enough, so extra star for that. Read more

It's fine, but not phenomenal. The place feels small and cramped inside, the menu can not be seen until you're literally at the... register, and the prices are higher than expected. A banana pudding (skip it), tart (ok), 1 cookies and cream macaroon (great),and a brown sugar iced coffee (skip) was like $18. While the macaroons are very tasty, I won't be buying them again outside ofa special occasion. Be prepared to wait in line for 10 minutes and be prepared for things to sell out by early in the day. Ipurchased a tart at 1030AM and found out that they didn't have any left after cashing out (had already sold it but presumablydidn't remove it from case). The whole experience felt a bit chaotic behind the counter. There were 5-6 employees in a crampedspace trying to avoid each other and complete orders. Read more

It's my first time here and I already want to come back! Unique drinks like the taro latte and toffee iced latte were out of... this world! The dessert selection was tempting so I ended up will a vanilla cream puff. It was fluffy and sweet! The decor ofthe cafe is adorable minimalist chic. Great for anyone who likes those Instagramable moments. I came here about 30 minutesbefore closing on a Saturday and they were pretty busy. Looks like a great place for anyone finding a place to study or get somework done too. The service was great and cashiers were helpful with suggestions. Give this place a shot caffeine and sweetslovers! Updates: July 24th, 2020 Just tried their Bingsu (Korean Shaved Ice) and it's amazing! Very refreshing and perfectsize to share! July 27th, 2020 Got the Bulgogi sandwich and taro cream puff today and they were so amazing! The brown sugarboba drink tastes a lot like honey milk. It was a nice sweet treat! Read more
