N.J.'s best coffee shop just opened a new location. Here's where.
New Jersey's premier coffee shop just opened the doors on a new location. Treehouse Coffee Shop, the burgeoning Jersey City cafe that claimed the No. 1 spot on coffee shop ranking, just opened its third location. The new Treehouse shop, also known as 'Treehouse 3″ is located at 75 Bright St. in the Van Vorst Park neighborhood of Jersey City's historic downtown. The shop's soft opening, which included its full menu, took place on Aug. 15. A grand opening ceremony is expected to be held sometime in September, although an exact date has yet to be determined. Treehouse's first shop opened on Jersey City's West Side back in 2019. A second shop with a larger seating area opened downtown on Brunswick Street in 2023. Owner Frank Young told NJ Advance Media the company's success and expansion has come out of necessity. 'We felt like a lot of people were kind of backed into a corner when the pandemic happened,' Young said. 'We bet our house on the first shop, so it was like, 'we better be good at this.' The new shop is the smallest of the brand's locations, encompassing less than 200 square feet of space — more of a grab-and-go operation than the previous outposts. Young said they took all of the elements of previous Treehouse spots and put them into a smaller space. Their signature pink, green and blue color scheme is still very present. Treehouse offers coffee, cold brew, espresso, matcha, tea and more. Speciality drinks like their horchata latte, Vietnamese red eye, NOLA latte and caramel shakerato have made the shop a local favorite. Their menu also features croissants, cookies, scones, brownies and overnight oats. Treehouse also runs the coffee program at Whealth Kitchen, a health food eatery in Jersey City's Journal Square neighborhood. Young pointed to the cafe's emergence as a communal space during the COVID pandemic as a reason for its popularity. 'When the pandemic started, we took a day to merge everything online and opened back up the next day as a grab-and-go spot. We actually forged a lot of relationships in the neighborhood,' Young said. 'People were home, so they needed to take a walk, have small conversation and just get out. We became the spot for that.' More food coverage: What is a 'Camden-style' cheesesteak?

Now Would Be a Good Time for a Career Tune-Up
I'm writing with two reasons you might want to get a status update on your job. First, the gloomy one: There are signs the labor market is shifting into a lower gear globally. The US recently clocked the worst three months for job growth since the pandemic. Applications for US unemployment benefits rose last week to the highest level since June. My colleague north of the border just wrote about how young Canadians are getting 'ghosted' by potential employers at frustrating rates amid a deepening jobs crisis. And on the other side of the pond, Britons have been muddling through a labor market notching superlatives for all the wrong reasons.

Philip Cross: Why is youth unemployment so high? Government policies
Young people have borne the brunt of the recent deterioration in Canada's labour market. Youth unemployment usually runs at about twice the rate for adults, reflecting young workers' lower productivity and inexperience at searching for a job. But now it's nearly three times the rate for adults, which puts it at 'crisis levels' according to some commentators. The likely cause of this crisis? Government programs that have raised the minimum wage and sharply increased the supply of low-skilled foreign workers. The unemployment rate for those between 15 and 24 years of age shot up 5.4 percentage points from its recent low of 9.2 per cent in March 2023 to 14.6 per cent in July 2025. Over the same period unemployment for those 25 years and older rose just 1.3 points, from just 4.4 per cent to 5.7 per cent. The rise in their unemployment does not fully convey the deterioration of labour market conditions for young people, however. Disappearing job opportunities discouraged many from even looking for a job, which means they aren't counted as either in the labour force or unemployed. Moreover, in July a majority of those who did have jobs were in part-time, not full-time work, only the second month that's ever happened outside the 2020 COVID pandemic. Among those 15- to 24-year-olds, teenagers have been the biggest losers in the labour market lately. Their unemployment rate has nearly doubled over the past two years, from 11.9 per cent to 20.0 per cent, a level more typical of Europe's sclerotic labour market rather than North America's usually dynamic one. And, again, many teens have simply dropped out of the labour market, resulting in their participation rate falling from 52.0 to 46.5 per cent. Young people aged 20 to 24 have fared better, with the increase in their unemployment at about three percentage points over the past two years. And their labour force participation rate has remained stable near 78.0 per cent. Why has the labour market for youths, and especially teenagers, deteriorated so badly in recent years? Government policies that raised minimum wages while at the same time allowing a flood of low-skilled foreign workers into the country. Driven by the misguided slogan of providing a 'living wage,' most governments in Canada have raised the minimum wage to at least $15 an hour, double what it was in 2005 and with growth twice the rate of inflation. Many economists, including me in a 2021 paper published by the Fraser Institute, warned that such increases would be devastating for youths, and especially teenagers. Higher minimum wages support increased incomes for only the very small number of adults who are paid it — and if you are 40 years old and still earning the minimum wage, you should probably spend time reflecting on your career choice, your skill set or your motivation. Even as higher wages were pricing young people out of the job market, a surge in the number of low-skilled workers entering Canada meant supply was rising to take their place. Ottawa relaxed the rules governing low-skilled, temporary immigrant workers in 2023, triggering a flood of two million entrants since then. Recognizing it opened the floodgates too wide, the government last fall cut the number to be let in this year and next. And last week it announced it was reviewing its 2024 initiative to allow these temporary foreign workers an easier path to permanent residency. The combined impact of higher minimum wages and a rising supply of low-skilled immigrants has crippled job opportunities for youths, especially teens. When compelled to pay a minimum of $15 an hour or more, employers usually prefer hiring a highly-motivated and more mature immigrant worker over an inexperienced youth with no résumé. Philip Cross: Trump's conspiracy theory about 'rigged' U.S. jobs data doesn't add up Philip Cross: Buckley showed conservatism needs a moral foundation The sudden worsening of labour market outcomes for young people compounds their frustration at being shut out of Canada's prohibitively expensive housing market. It should not have surprised anyone that young Canadians, hoping to remedy the damage caused by government policies, were increasingly open to voting for Pierre Poilievre's Conservative party at the past election.
