12 Best Coffee Shops in Asbury Park

“Super amazing service. I went twice in the same day as i’m from North Jersey and was only on a small weekend getaway trip. The girls were lovely - I wish I caught their names. But they were amazing! Matcha was great quality - I think I have the Graham Central (something lol) and the Baklava Latte. Super yummy!“

“Dutch Coffee!!! Wonderful staff and a cozy environment.“

“One of the better Sausage egg and cheese on a roll around. I always add a PB&J bar along with my dark roast. Staff is friendly as well as the people who visit. Nice to shop local and family run. I only wish they had more seating as it can get busy and I come from out of town so I’m not a take away customer. I can see take away is their bread and butter. Good stop to buy beans for home.“

“Forget the rest, AP is the best.
Don’t be fooled by new comer coffee shops in Asbury Park. If you want good fresh roasted coffee, look no further. Take the walk to 2nd Ave. The folks working are always kind and there is comfy seating if you want I stay. The iced coffee is god tier, probably the best I’ve ever had. Rich and flavorful but no bitterness. I’ve been coming here for years and have started bringing the beans home for when I’m not in town. I’ve ordered also from their website and deliver was fast and easy. Now when I have visitors at my home they remark at how good my coffee is, the best they say. I say yes, yes it is.“

“So glad I found this place on my trip to Asbury. Coffee was stellar, pastries were great (had a croissant bread pudding? Ummm... what?), and the service was wonderful and even better... the vibe.

True community spot and will be my go to on coming back.“

“Absolutely love what Makana’s has brought to Asbury Park! From the moment you step in, you’re greeted with a burst of fresh, inviting aromas and a smile from the friendly staff. I tried their signature Philly Wrap and the Ube latte, both of which were out of this world!“

“Delicious, quality desserts & great service.“

“Wonderful place with great and different food combinations in their omelets, eggs, and sandwiches. Didn’t get to taste the pancakes, that looked amazing ! Love this place 😍“

“Had cookies made for my sisters 60th Birthday they were adorable.. sunflowers. Dani was pleasant personable and did exactly what I wanted as per cookie designs. The cookies were wrapped in clear cellophane bags and were yummy! 😋“

“Eddie is the best! Best ice cream in town, and for a more than fair price. Really good milkshakes too.

Shout out to who was holding it down this past Sunday afternoon/evening in the cold rain….the Wonder Bar Sunday Crew loves you!“

“Visited in June 2025 for brunch during business trip. This charming tea shop never disappoints - been coming here since my London days when friends first introduced me.\n\n**FOOD QUALITY:**\nOrdered the Devon Cream Tea (around £9) - absolutely perfect. Two fresh scones served warm (cut into 4 pieces) with clotted cream and jam. The scones are lightly toasted and incredibly addictive! - easily finished all 4 pieces. This is clearly what most customers come for, and rightfully so.\n\nPreviously tried their sandwiches which are also excellent - substantial portions with great flavors, perfect for lunch.\n\n**ATMOSPHERE:**\nAuthentic old-style British tea shop atmosphere. Traditional decor - quintessentially British experience.\n\n**SERVICE:**\nEfficient and professional staff. Not overly chatty but very competent and quick service once seated. No unnecessary fuss - just good, reliable service.\n\n**WAITING TIME:**\nReservations may be possible (worth checking ahead!) though I walked in and waited. Had 3 groups ahead of me during busy period. Recommend either arriving early or calling to check booking availability to avoid queues.\n\n**VALUE:**\nExcellent value at £9 for cream tea set. Generous portions with large pot of tea and two substantial scones. Quality justifies the price completely.\n\n**LOCATION:**\nClassic London tea shop experience in the heart of the city. Perfect stop during sightseeing or business breaks.\n\n**PERFECT FOR:** Traditional British tea experience, tourists wanting authentic atmosphere, locals seeking quality comfort food, no issue with solo dining which is good!\n\n**TIPS:** Arrive early to avoid queues, definitely try the scones, consider takeaway option\n\nThis is my go-to spot every time I'm in London. The scones alone make it worth the visit - truly the best I've had anywhere. Highly recommend for anyone wanting an authentic British tea shop experience.“
