Valerie Robinson tends her farm and runs a cafe called Hens and Honey Shoppe in beautiful Swedesboro, New Jersey. Valerie has an incredible zest for life and is also very funny!
Her energy is felt throughout her shop, from the bright and beautiful murals to the scent of fresh flowers to her amazing flavors and coffee and tea blends. She has brought all of her favorite things together in one place where you can have coffee with friends and buy special things.
All of their baked goods, salads and sandwiches come from local bakeries and farms. The goods in their shop come from local businesses and local artists.
A popular offer from their cafe among customers is the coffee tasting. You get a tasting of four different coffees of your choice. Usually this is offered at certain times of the day as it is the most requested.
There’s indoor and outdoor seating, and signs throughout the store are encouraging, while others are just plain funny. You could also decorate your Instagram with shots in front of Hens and Honey’s decorated walls.
Swedesboro is full of antique shops and boutiques, so when you’ve had enough of Valerie’s coffee wonderland, you can spend the day shopping. There are tons of farms throughout Gloucester County, don’t forget to stop at some of the farmers markets. It’s a beautiful drive, perfect for a Sunday afternoon when you have the day to yourself. Valerie is always there. Be sure to say hi, you’ll love her.
