Places I like

Morning bakery counter and cafe energy, then it turns into the pizza / restaurant move later. Good when you want breakfast, panini, bread, pizza, or a proper dinner without changing spots.

Fine fast-casual Italian in Montclair. This is a lunch and dinner pick, not a breakfast stop: pizza, pasta, panuozzi, salads, and proper Italian comfort food.

Breakfast, brunch and lunch spot. Best before 4pm: coffee, eggs, brunch plates, sandwiches, salads and the kind of daytime food that works when you do not want dinner energy.
