NEW JERSEY - For the past six years, visitors to the Village at Rancocas Woods in Mount Laurel have enjoyed a unique slice of Eastern Europe. Four Green Cats Café, a popular European-style bakery and coffee shop, became a local favorite for its authentic Czech delicacies, fresh pastries, and locally roasted coffee. However, the cozy cafe is now preparing for a major transition after a lease non-renewal is forcing it out of its longtime home.
A New Chapter for Four Green Cats Café: Beloved Czech Spot Leaving Rancocas Woods for Haddonfield
The café, which boasts a stellar 4.6-star rating from over 400 glowing reviews, built a fiercely loyal following at its 118 Creek Road location. Regulars flocked to the welcoming space for its signature chlebíčky (traditional Czech open-faced sandwiches), Bohemian sugar donuts, and rich German bread pudding. With its affordable $10–$20 price point and dedication to scratch-made European comfort food, it served as a vital community hub for both quick morning coffees and relaxed weekend lunches.
While the departure from the historic Rancocas Woods setting marks the end of a cherished era, fans of the cafe won't have to wait long to get their fix. Ownership is currently relocating the business, with plans to open a new storefront in nearby Haddonfield by late September.
The move represents both a hurdle and a fresh opportunity for the small business, ensuring that their authentic European catering, specialty teas, and homemade baked goods will continue to serve South Jersey diners in a brand-new setting.
