And the service is great, which is hard to come by these days. It’s clearly a family-run place where Everyone cares about the quality. Also impeccably clean!“

“Took the dog to the animal hospital nearby and stopped in for a cappuccino. I was impressed with the operation, and the different type of coffees and preparations. Definitely a great place for coffee.“

“So, we’re from boston and are visiting my son. Not too much to choose from around here in terms of restaurants. But suddenly I see a sign Minas Grill and went in just because of the word grill. It’s Brazilian! My heart is singing! Great coffee, the food is like home cooked. Loved the cheese bread and you can shop here too! Lovely warm people and so helpful! So we’ll be back while we’re here.“

“I have dined here multiple times. The food is always great as is the service. The restaurant has a cute vibe, however the last few times I have eaten here the restaurant has been extremely dirty. The silverware is not clean and the tables and floors are not clean. The tables nearby remain uncleared for the duration of our dining. I want to keep dining here, but it really needs to be better kept.“

“I’m picky when it comes to my coffee, which is why I get mine here when I’m in the area. Coffee is always perfect and strong The bagels are also very good, along with their other baked goods. The workers are very nice too!“

“This is hands-down my favorite coffee shop. Everything on the menu is incredible. I’ve tried so many different drinks here, and not once have I been disappointed. Whether it’s a matcha drink, coconut water hydrator, an iced cold brew special or one of Jen’s signature creations, every cup is thoughtfully made and absolutely delicious. There’s an item on the menu for every taste and preference, from skinny drinks to collagen protein add-ins, kid friendly ice pops, and more. You can tell that a lot of love goes into every detail — from the coffee itself to the welcoming vibe and friendly service. It’s the kind of place that instantly becomes a local favorite, and once you try it, you’ll keep coming back. If you’re even thinking about trying this place, do it. You’ll be a regular after one sip.“

“Adorable location and delicious selections of fresh coffee. Such a pleasure ☕️☕️“

“This is my go to place for coffee beans, roasted on premises. There is a good range of beans. I started with the summer blend and found that too mild. Then I switched to Brazil and am happy as a clam. And, the baked goods are delicious, vanilla scone topped with a dollop of icing. Yum!“

“I order in advance since it takes around 25 min to get ready. Love the half sandwich half salad option. My favorite is the pesto ciabatta with an egg over it and the kale salad. You can’t go wrong with the match strawberry iced drink:)“

“A passionate owner is the first step to a successful business and you have that here. Great pork roll and coffee is a plus. Highly recommend this place.“

“The food !! Everything is fresh & yums!! They also made corn pancakes ( don’t judge til you’ve had them 😊) not on the menu for myself & my bff!!“

“Been going here since it opened, as a great place to sit in the sun outdoors, or inside at the various seating options. Fine coffee, great service from long time friendly staff members here, and a top place for casual meetings on the West Side of Red Bank. Limited but tasty food options.“

“Best rook ever! I hope the manager knows they have the absolute nicest girls working here! Me and my nana have been coming here before college testing, we don’t live around the area. The girl behind the counter remembered i was taking my test and asked me about it a week later when i was up here to take my next test. That meant so much to me!
also the Banana toffee is TO DIE FOR!!!“

“When you want the best ���“

“First time here and won't be the last. The ice cream was so good. The only problem with the ice cream was which flavor to choose. every one we tried was so good.“

“Love the ambiance and decor, which makes you feel like you’re in an airy part of Paris, or maybe even the countryside. The latte was incredible. I tried the Parisian ham, egg and cheese croissant while my wife tried the bacon, egg, and ham on a roll. I thought mine was better because the croissant made the difference. Will return!“

“I’m in love with this location, the baristas are amazing and I’ve never had a bad experience here. My favorite baristas name is Elita, not only does she make a perfect drink every time I order she is kind, compassionate, works at a good pace and is a beautiful person, as all of the workers are, I only remember Elitas name right now. Forgive me 💕💕“

“Once I've paid for my coffee there is no reason why I should have to stand around waiting for it to be given to me while the same cash register worker takes two other customers and they walk out the store with their purchases. I still need to access the crowded milk/sugar station, which delays me even more. This has happened many times, which is why I think twice before going to Paris Baguette so I frequent Starbucks instead. Ordering online and picking my order up just makes more sense, it's certainly quicker.“

“totally blown away . yummy“

“Just fabulous. I heard of Rook coffee frankly from Alix Earle on TikTok. Anyways I was in red bank and saw a sign and thought that might be that place she kept talking about.

I didn’t have high expectations or anything but I was curious. And it is fabuloussssss - the New Orleans cold brew! I had New Orleans cold brew in New Orleans and always try it black first. When I did it had a very licorice bitter taste. Rook advertised theirs as dark chocolatey and that is what it truly was. I could drink it black but then I added oat milk and it is divine. Love love love! Thank you Rook! Come to NYC 😘“

“Zeynep is amazing!! She baked an absolutely stunning first birthday cake for my son’s’s birthday. It was a 3-tiered teddy bear-themed cake, and she did a fabulous job!! She was a pleasure to work with, and I’d highly highly recommend her.“

“To the BASHERS that have posted such a bad & vicious reviews .
PLEASE STOP . The food is excellent. The service is superior and PERSONAL and the atmosphere is very nice.
We Are coming to this coffee place every Friday for the past two years , and ALWAYS enjoy as this is the first time .
BRAVO ….
Did I mention that we are owners of a restaurant as well 💕“

“Wonderful brunch menu and great service (Thx Kaylee!) Made for an enjoyable Sunday!“

“Wow! From the first time I took a bite out of the mix dozen bagels I bought I knew I have found the perfect bagel. Great staff, clean and a delicious variety of coffee.“

“This review is for the Mexican grill within the store.

I just had their Quesabirria tacos and OH MY GOD, they go up against any restaurant’s, EASILY. And for only $14 where everyone else is charging $17-$18 for the same amount? It’s a steal and I can’t wait to try everything else out on the menu!“

“hands down my favorite coffee shop. The two girls behind the counter are so friendly and seem to know every customers order by heart. The coffee is always delicious and the service is always quick; everything served with a smile! i’d give more than five stars to this store and their staff!“

“I actually had to take the time to give this place a five star review because I was so impressed by their service, atmosphere And friendliness. The staff that was working this morning was absolutely amazing and truly are the reason I will continue to come back to this one even though I am a Hazlet resident and used to go to THE ONE in Hazlet, but stopped a while ago because the staff and attitude there is so absolutely horrific. I left them a review today also just because it showed me how disappointing their location is and that they should really go to the Cliffwood location and be trained by them. Even the coffee was better. Five star review across the board!“

“Customer should be serced according to how long they are waiting I was Waiting to pick up patiently , more customers came in after me and they are bing served first because they are in front of the register? Meanwhile I have been waiting probably 5 minutes before that person. Bad habit.“

“This is my closest local dunkin & we go through the drive-through almost every day. I have a serious matcha latte addiction & we prefer Dunkin’s drinks over the competition. Our lattes are always made perfectly & our food/snack orders are always as requested. Staff is professional, friendly& personable.I continue to order from this location. Thanks guys!

Vegetarian options: The humus or avocado toast with roasted sun dried tomatoes are favorites’

Parking: There is immediate parking in front, but this is a Large parking plaza (conveniently shared with Bay Shore Pharmacy, FoodTown Supermarket, Pomodoro Rosso Pizza, a dry cleaner, a liquor store and A sub shop) so you will always find parking near by.“

“First time at Once Bitten and we will be back! So many choices of donuts! We bought the Red Bank, Strawberry lemonade, raspberry beret (I think that was the name) and another chocolate raspberry. All were delicious. Can’t wait to go back and try more flavors!“

“Just the best little coffee shop around! I'm not a big coffee guy, but they have an Malt Cold Brew that I get with oat milk that is heavenly and surprisingly doesn't give me the jitters like so many others do. Other times, their Iced Matcha Latte (also with oat milk) is just the right amount of refreshing that I need when stumbling into work there at Bell Works. But, if I'm really being honest, it is the staff there that keeps me coming back each day I work from the office. I feel like Norm from Cheers when I walk in, greeted by name with my customary order already on its way to being made and I don't even need to give them my name or phone number for the loyalty program, such is their attention to customer service. Do yourself a favor and stop by and tell them Gary sent you.“

“Ray and Jay are some of the sweetest people in all of Keyport“

“I was picking up my mom’s birthday order and mine today. I’m so pleased! They called me in advance to let me know they were out of stock of part of my order. Very attentive. Then when I went there for pick up around 1:15pm today, a girl named (hopefully I heard it correctly) Carrie helped me with everything which was a relief because it’s my first time visiting this place. Great service! Thank you“

“Milk,dark & white chocolate pretzels were delish! Also the different flavored truffles were decadent. Drop by and feed your sweet tooth. Yummy.“

“This was soooo freaking tasty 😋 I was shocked, impressed and absolutely blown away with Hands of royalty that made me this Devine drink .
I am so happy right now it tastes sooooo freaking sexy omggg yessss . I will see yall new year's for the discounted merchandise but I will be back for a another cup of gold soon. until then stay super riders.“

“Nice employees friendly and eager to help“

“They have amazing vegetarian and vegan options on both the food menu and within the bakery. Everything is so so so good!“
