50 Best Coffee Shops near Colts Neck

“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!!!“

“I tried out the Grind after lots of great reviews from people in the area. The place is definitely cute and parking is convenient. I stopped in to grab something to go, but it looks like the dining room had lots of people happily eating. While it was a busy morning (around 10am on a weekday) it did take quite some time to be acknowledged by the staff at the counter and I won’t day there was a warm and fuzzy kind of vibe that I’d get somewhere like Rook. It was pretty transactional and that’s about it. I went with a specialty latte (the Samoa cookie latte). I honestly didn’t realize it was iced when I ordered it, but that’s ok. I will say it was exceptionally sweet and more syrup flavor than actual coffee. I ended up adding loads of extra milk when I got home (and even added some as space cleared up—this thing was SWEET and syrupy). I maybe picked the wrong drink for me, so I’ll say that’s on me for sure. Got a few bagels, quite good and a Nutella pop tart…pretty good. Overall I wasn’t blown away by the service or drinks, but I want to give it another try. It could have been a crazy day and I could have picked the wrong drink for me. I’ll be sure to update this review in the future.“

“Stopped in to treat my grandkids to munchkins after a picnic at Dorbrook park.“

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

“I’ve been about 5 times so far and LOVE Emelio’s! The food is fresh and delicious and the portions generous. Even their simple side salad is something special - delicious, light dressing. 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!“

“I go here multiple times a week. The owner is always very nice and the place is so inviting. Sometimes I order pickup and sometimes I bring a friend to have coffee and lunch. It’s the greatest spot. Highly recommend the ruby turkey sandwich. I’m very thankful they have gluten free bread. 🥰🥰“

“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!“

“My wife’s birthday was this past week. The only thing she asked for was a cake from Turquoise! And that’s what she got. The fluffiest, sweetest Red Velvet cake and Cream Cheese. Decorated to perfection! I’m trying to post a photo or two but the app won’t allow it. Oh well… take my word for it. Delicious.“

“Great value and quality! Highly recommend!“

“Great food and reasonable price!!!“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“best in the biz! coffee 🔥, sandwiches 🔥, ambiance 🔥“

“THE BREAKFAST AND LUNCH (FOOD OVERALL) IS AMAZING!!! WOW, THE BEST I'VE HAD IN CENTRAL JERSEY. EVERYTHING IS COOKED TO PERFECTION.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND AND WILL REVISIT TIME-TO-TIME. SO GLAD I FINALLY FOUND A PLACE I LIKE. 🙌“

“Stopped in here randomly on Saturday on our way to a lacrosse tournament. Cool atmosphere and nice workers. However, the best thing was that their iced latte was one of, if not the, best lattes I’ve ever had. Seriously. So good. My daughter had a fruity drink that I don’t recall the name of but she loved hers too. Will be going out of my way to go back.“

“Great pour overs, well trained staff“

“Every now and then I’d stop in to get a bowl but not enough to make it worth getting a rewards membership. During this summer I made some dietary adjustments to help enhance and maintain current healthy lifestyle and decided to get a reward membership. Staff member (my apologies for not remembering her name) was not only professional but appeared sincerely engaged with informing the benefits with the reward membership and improving my insights on the menu board. I felt genuinely welcomed.
Thank you 🙏🏾“

“Get place, nice people and it is indoor or outdoor dining!“

“Rook in Freehold made itself a staple in my morning routine! Not only do they craft a fantastic product to help jumpstart my daily productivity, but the employees are some of the kindest people going. It’s hard not to smile when in the building, knowing you’re going to indulge in a delicious cup of coffee and chat with a great staff of people. Thank you Rook in Freehold, I will see you tomorrow.“

“My niece took me here & the crepes were so awesome. Great service too! Loved it..“

“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.“

“I purchased a new Jura ENA 8 from 1st In Coffee. I'm absolutely delighted in every way! This machkne is a magical piece of technology. It makes all coffee drinks PERFECTLY. I have a Gaggia Classic and could never make an espresso drink as good as the Jura. AND its fully automatic. It's truly impressive. Before pulling the trigger, I called some dealers. I was most impressed by Jim at 1st.
He was polite, patient, and he answered all my questions. The machine arrived within a few days in 100% perfect condition. This is an authorized Jura dealer for the last 22+ years. I called Jura Inc. and they confirmed this. Jura Inc. wasn't anywhere near as helpful as 1st! The actual manufacturer! I feel comfortable dealing with this company and look forward to doing business with them again for coffee and supplies.“

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

“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.“

“When you want the best ���“

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

“great place to stop for breakfast!! bagels are excellent and so are the breakfast sandwiches and everything that they have is good..... and the owner is very nice..“

“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 😘“

“This is an amazing place. As many of us know, people who are neurodivergent, have disabilities, and/or are special needs, have a hard time finding employment in their community. This adorable cafe is a trailblazer in community involvement, providing training and jobs for our special needs community!!!

The food is honestly FANTASTIC!

If you are in a rush, this may not be the place to go. If you have time to sit, chat, and relax, this is the perfect spot for a delicious lunch. 10/10 Would recommend.“

“totally blown away . yummy“

“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.“

“Even though Diana was working by herself, she did an amazing job managing the busyness of the store. She was making drinks, helping customers, and still taking the time to have conversations with the people waiting in line. She was so friendly, welcoming, and handled everything with such a great attitude. My drinks were also made perfectly and excellent customer service. Great job, Diana!“

“Owen the employee does a great job making my wife and I ice coffees“

“Victoria is awesome ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent staff and good coffee. The coffee always smells and tastes fresh. The quality of service is above and beyond. Victoria is my favorite; very sweet, friendly, and professional. I like her personality a latte. She’s the epitome of awesomeness and an asset to corporate. A+ 👏👏👏“

“My grandchildren love this place so my son took us at there at 5 minutes before closing at 5 pm. They were nice enough to let us in. We got Bavarian Cream and Chocolates S’mores. Delicious!! Very unique and tasty donuts with friendly and smiling staff. My grandchildren have great taste!!“

“By far one of my favorite dunkins to go to. The wait time is very fast and efficient. The whole staff is amazing and I was greeted by a very joyful young lady named Dee in the drive thru with a very bright and cheerful personality will definitely continue to return to this location.“

“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.“
