50 Best Coffee Shops near Belmar

“Wow, needed a coffee before summoning the energy to gut it out for some striper in the surf on a snotty day - and this place was so far beyond expectations given most coffee shops aren’t even open this time of year.

The place is perfect. The latte was amazing and the avocado toast, recommended by the very awesome Jeannette who I assume is the owner, was better and more interesting than most anything I get back in Southern California (no, that’s no hyperbole). Holiday vibes are on point too! Thanks for having me!“

“Great pour overs, well trained staff“

“This coffee shop is a hidden gem and worth the visit. I was blown away by how amazing the coconut and banana foster lattes were, and our barista Jessica was super friendly and made our drinks perfectly! Highly recommend checking Coffee Surf Co. out!“

“How this place doesn’t have 5,000+ 5-Star reviews I don’t know. Offshore has been serving quality roasts, food, service, and atmosphere for a long time in Long Branch. Their Belmar location is no different. With menu that is always great and plenty of seating you can’t beat it. They are always on their game, I can’t recommend enough.“

“Come here every day! Love, best coffee.“

“Good time. Quick attendance. Always a excellent product. We love it. Thanks Dunkin' Donuts.“

“If you are looking for a high-quality bagel in the Belmar area, the Corner Bagelry is a standout choice. The shop has a welcoming atmosphere that fits perfectly with the local community. It is clear they focus on freshness, which makes a difference in the overall experience compared to other local spots.m

The egg bagel is my go to here. I ordered mine toasted with butter, and it was excellent. The texture was exactly what you want—a soft, flavorful interior with just the right amount of chew. It was prepared perfectly, with the butter melted evenly across the bagel, enhancing the flavor without making it greasy enough r leaving a puddle in my car.

The staff was efficient and friendly, and maintained a clean and organized area. It is a reliable spot for a consistent, high-quality breakfast, and I would certainly recommend stopping by if you are in the neighborhood.“

“Thank you for the stellar customer service today with my order, Playa Bowls 👌🏻“

“Wonderful, friendly owners! Coffee is delicious and the greek baked goods/desserts are fantastic! Bonus... you can hone your greek language skills 🩵“

“Goldrush has become my favorite neighborhood spot! For coffee, an amazing cookie / pastry or a friendly face. The staff is amazing, the location is warm and welcoming. The perfect spot to pop in with a friend or hang solo to get a little work done. 10/10 recommend!“

“Great value and quality! Highly recommend!“

“This place took me by surprise! They don’t have too many specialty coffees however their coffee was amazing! It’s inside of an old bank which was insanely cool! I so happened to get a Lavender Vanilla latte and it was so good! It wasn’t overly sweet which I loved! Will definitely be coming back!“

“Friendly staff, great coffee! I had a Nutella iced latte, and it was delicious. On the weekends, they do a little pop-up market outdoors, which is extra fun!“

“Best coffee & danishes in NJ, hands down.“

“Excellent coffee shop right off of Mantoloking road. Easy to find and plenty of parking both in front of the shop and along the side. Everyone behind the counter is super friendly and quick to say hello or ask about your day. Menu has the staples, but be sure to check the seasonal specials for some fun options. Red eye Cold Brew will wake you up (my favorite). They also have some great local croissants. Coffee is flavorful and always ready quickly. Ther is also a great sitting area to enjoy your coffee or get some work done

Overall 10/10 always a stop on my list after a late night out or when headed out to run errands. Stop in and give them a try!“

“This is such an amazing place! Delicious coffees, an awesome atmosphere, and simply some of the best plants you can get in the area; it’s a completely wonderful experience every time I visit! The owner, Nubia, is beyond kind, knowledgeable, and always so welcoming! This female owned and operated small business should be celebrated for how amazing it truly is! Skip the big coffee chains and big box shops and support this incredible, local businesses, instead!“

“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.“

“Amazing food, friendly staff, delicious coffee🖤“

“All my coffee beans come from Rook! Some of my coffee mugs, too. I have the kind of machine that grinds whole beans before pouring. Rook's Nicaragua and Guatemala are favorites. The staff are all so friendly. Lots of locations, too.“

“Just a great, delicious cup of coffee .. and Mark has his shop running like clockwork“

“Everything is always so delicious and even though it’s a little far from me I try to make a trip at least once a week since it’s my favorite spot!“

“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.“

“Coffee was delicious and so was my acai bowl. Freshest bowl base had in the area and the guy working there was so nice. I frequently come back to Jersey to visit family. Really liked they had a kids table with coloring for my nephew too. This is definitely a go-to now!“

“Polite, friendly service. Clean, inviting environment. Fun music ( not too loud for 8 am). Good, quick food. Hot coffee (and HOT SYRUP!). No disdain that I was paying with a gift card for 2 free meals, and taking 1 togo- super accommodating and bonus points bc that's not a great table to get on a Sunday morning. kudos Joshua 😊“

“This is the cutest location weve been to yet. Really friendly staff and awesome vibes coming from this place. there's nowhere to really chill but you shouldn't be hanging there for too long anyway because there's too much life to live outside“

“Today was my first time and the staff was very friendly and informative,I’ll be back definitely“

“Absolutely loved this place and so glad to have found it on a recent trip to Asbury.

We tried the Americano and a bagel - both were excellent. Good enough that we made time to go back before heading to the train and bought some Black & Tan beans to take home, which are also so good!!

Not many tables but that wasn’t an issue for us. The fact that you can see them roasting the beans is a nice touch as well.“

“The Best. Sumatra , pumpkin Spice Oh love.“

“We were invited to the friends and family breakfast the day before opening. We were all absolutely floored by this place and have already made a new tradition to come every sunday! The wait staff and INCREDIBLE, they are so sweet and so speedy! They were so considerate, turned the fire place off for us, and talked with our kids. The restaurant is clean, calm, almost beachy feeling. The most important...the food was absolutely amazing AND at an incredible price. The portions are large and VERY affordable, while looking and tasting like high end breakfast. This place makes you feel rich, and will thankfully not give your bank account the bill.“

“The Grand Victorian (Allison) recommended this little cafe and it was awesome. Kelly was a great waitress who provided a wealth of information as to where to go. The food was delicious and service was fast. Highly recommend.“

“Been there several times food and service is excellent. Natalie is hands down the best waitress in all PPB always prompt service!!!“

“Great coffee and croissant. I will be back.“

“BRICK: walking into California Cold Co. feels like stepping into a perfectly timed midday reset with buzzing energy, great music, and a crowd happily fueling up on caffeine.

Leashed and friendly dogs are welcome inside as well as at the outdoor tables, making it an easy stop for you and your pup.

Their craft drinks are thoughtfully made, with a mix of everyday favorites and creative seasonal specials, plus light bites to round out your visit. We loved spotting a couple of other dogs soaking up the outing with their families, always a good sign you have found a gem.

They also have a location in Manalapan, so you have got options when the craving hits“

“My husband and I had breakfast here yesterday. It was our first time at Rise n Shine and we loved it!!! Great food and service. Our new favorite restaurant.“

“Port Coffee Roasters is so much more than just grabbing a cup of coffee. Its an experience. The owners and staff are very knowledgeable and personable. Each cup of coffee is made to order and the end product is pure deliciousness. The owners Grace and Greg roast their own beans in a state of the art roaster right on premises. They prepare delicious fresh baked goods daily, and have a true passion for their craft.“

“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!!“

“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.“

“As frequent visitors to Asbury Park, we’ve tried most of the coffee spots in the area, and Offshore Coffee is definitely our #1. The staff is always friendly, and the coffee is absolutely delicious. It’s the perfect stop if you’re strolling along the Asbury Park Boardwalk—grab a seat, enjoy your brew, and take in the ocean view. Highly recommended—you won’t be disappointed! The only suggestion I have is to add some gluten free snack options.“

“Really good food and great staff. Place was clean and accommodating. Yolo French roast was heaven. 🥵“

“Our server Joe was very nice, helpful and pleasant. We had the bagels and lox, power bowl and oatmeal with blueberries and bananas, absolutely delicious!! Highly recommend especially this time of year, usually a wait in summer but weee sat right away this time. The food was extremely fresh, and everything looked and tasted homemade.“

“first time my wife and I were there for breakfast today the best bacon egg and cheese I ever had very clean courteous staff we will be 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!“

“I recently visited Seawatch Coffee and Market, and I can’t stop raving about the experience! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere enveloped me in warmth and charm. The cozy, nautical-inspired decor, with its soft lighting and comfortable seating, creates a welcoming vibe that feels like a home away from home. The service is nothing short of exceptional. The staff greeted me with genuine smiles and made me feel like a valued guest from the start. They were attentive without being overbearing, quick to offer recommendations, and clearly passionate about what they do. The owner deserves special praise for setting the tone of this gem. Their warmth and dedication shine through in every detail, from the carefully curated menu to the inviting atmosphere. You can tell they pour their heart into what they do. This is a place where quality and care come together beautifully—I can’t wait to return!“

“The quality of the food and service is top notch! The atmosphere is exceedingly charming.“

“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!“
