15 Best Coffee Shops in Ocean City

“Delicious Breakfast and Wonderful Hospitality! My family and I were in Ocean City helping a relative move back to Wisconsin, and we stayed at the beautiful Hyatt Oceanview Resort. My daughter and I decided to try a breakfast spot on the Ocean City Boardwalk and found Crepe Daddy — and we’re so glad we did! The food and service were both amazing, but what really made the experience special was meeting Ben, the owner. His kindness, genuine personality, and personal touch made us feel so welcome. We had a great conversation with him that truly made our trip memorable. We can’t wait to come back with the rest of our family so they can meet Ben and enjoy his delicious breakfast menu and lattes. It’s definitely a must-visit spot when you’re in Ocean City!“

“Vegan review:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Chai latte with oat milk - not too mild 💋
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Hot chocolate with oat milk - real chocolate flavor not syrup.
⭐⭐⭐⭐Avocado toast - light on salt and wish there was lemon or lime flavor in mashed avocado.
⭐⭐⭐The happy cow -vegan breakfast burrito. With hot sauce it is 4⭐s but it lacks some flavor but the tortilla is nicely crisp. The sauce it comes with is mild and underwhelming, I liked the blue agave saracha.
When they called our order it was difficult to here our name but it was not loud so be careful.“

“Dog friendly and great food. Friendly and fun atmosphere. Owner personally greeted us with biscuits for our dog Skillet.“

“Luv’s Coffee & Bagels — Ocean City’s Hidden Breakfast Gem with Heart (and Gluten-Free Heaven!)

Tucked right on Fifth Street in Ocean City, Luv’s Coffee & Bagels is the kind of spot that instantly wins you over — not just with the smell of fresh coffee and toasted bagels, but with genuine warmth, great food, and a real commitment to every guest’s needs.

From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel like locals. Friendly smiles, upbeat energy, and food that tastes like it’s made with love — the name Luv’s fits perfectly.

☕ The Coffee

Their coffee is phenomenal. Smooth, bold, never bitter — you can tell they take pride in every cup. Whether you’re a straight-up black coffee drinker or you love your lattes, they nail the flavor and consistency every time.

🥯 The Bagels & Breakfast

The bagels are next-level — perfectly chewy on the inside with that golden crisp outside. But here’s what really sets Luv’s apart: their gluten-free options are legit. My girlfriend is gluten-free, and this is one of the very few places at the beach where she can order freely without worry.

They offer gluten-free bagels, almond flour pancakes, and even gluten-free waffles that are so good, you’d never know the difference. Everything comes out fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor — no shortcuts, no dry texture, just genuinely great food that happens to be gluten-free.

🥞 The Vibe

It’s bright, welcoming, and full of local energy. Whether you’re starting your beach day, grabbing brunch, or just hanging out for a while, it’s got that perfect Ocean City vibe — relaxed but full of life.

❤️ Why We’ll Keep Coming Back

It’s rare to find a café that gets everything right: delicious food, top-notch coffee, friendly people, and thoughtful options for everyone — including those who need to eat gluten-free. Luv’s Coffee & Bagels isn’t just a stop; it’s a destination.

If you’re in Ocean City, do yourself a favor — go to Luv’s. Whether you eat gluten-free or not, you’ll leave happy, full, and probably planning your next visit before you hit the boardwalk.“

“My first experience with Coffee Beanery. I was knocked out by the smoothness of their coffee. This will definitely be my go to coffee place when I visit Ocean City or wherever I can find one!“

“Best Dunkin' in OCMD. Thanks for always supporting the car enthusiasts during cruise weeks. Even with the long lines and hours of crowds the team always provides top notch customer service, good donuts, and hot coffee as well as clean bathrooms!“

“It is the cutest storybook A-frame cottage that houses the Dunkin’ Donuts on 67th Street. Parking & easy access out front at the Town Center. Absolutely spot-on service! A systematic team here to put your orders together. We enjoyed the ambiance outside on the front patio while we ate our breakfast & sipped our favorite coffee.“

“Workers should go up north to learn how to move their butts, 12 minutes for a coffee and a wrap is a bit ridiculous alot of employees and it wasn't even that busy“

“First time and I Loved it! Amazing customer service Friendly atmosphere Scrumptious food Definitely give them a try when in ocean city!“

“"☕ Royale Roasters - A Coffee Lover's Paradise! ?If you're passionate about coffee, this place is a dream come true. The rich, aromatic brews and cozy ambiance create the perfect coffee experience. Don't miss it!#RoyaleRoasters #OceanCityMD #CoffeeLovers #PerfectBrew #CozyCafe"“

“Spent the last 5 days in Ocean City and this Dunkin has been my go to spot! I place my order just a few min before I go to the drive thru window and it’s ready asap and made correctly every single time.
This Dunkin has the best and friendliest employees I’ve ever encountered. All Dunkin’s should be like this one.“

“We happened upon this place while checking out reviews of breakfast spots. We've been by there numerous times during the OC cruises, but never tried it. We really enjoyed our breakfast there Sunday morning! I had the "goin' bananas french toast" (really good, and lots of it) and my wife had the "avocado toast", which she loved. Met the owner and had a nice chat. Good food and made fresh. Will definitely return next cruise we attend. Highly recommend.“

“Visited this store for the first time today. Absolutely loved everything! Such a great selection of ladies clothing and accessories! They have nice boutique clothing and also some nice beachy/local items if you are looking for something seasonal. I was really happy to happen upon this store while vacationing on OC. It will not disappoint you! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“I have been going to Pho-Char for about 2 years on a regular basis. The owners do a phenomenal job staying on top of everything. The place is always clean, organized, and well kept.

The food is amazing. I have yet to have even a mediocre meal here. I typically always get the pho, but the fried rice is excellent, appetizers are great, and everything is always supurb.

Highly recommend this place for pho lovers. I love supporting mom and pop shops and what seems to be a husband and wife are always there working extremely hard.“
