50 Best Coffee Shops near Fair Haven

“Just got back from France for a month and the coffee was watered down.. I landed and immediately came here lol! The place smells like and old wood barn, it has a an upstate sort of feel. The manager is so kind and knows everyone. Its be best coffee Ive had and I live in NYC with about 10 cafes in my local area. THIS place ranks the best.“

“I’m not sure if they can control this but I’m sure they can do something to fix it or Adair the problem when you do mobile pickup or been order something sometimes people take it one time I had to wait 30 MINUTES! So please do something’s bout that otherwise his is a good place prices are high though if you don’t plan to spend up to 50 for a breakfast here I wouldn’t recomend the wraps are expensive aswell“

“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 was in town 2 years ago and tried this place.. I LOVED espresso and I’m not lying I still think about my latte probably once a week.. I’ve tried so many coffee shops and this was by far my favorite. Can’t wait to go back!!! Oh and the cookies… don’t even get me started“

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

“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!“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Amazing food, friendly staff, delicious coffee🖤“

“We took our dog to Asbury Park Dog Beach for first time and randomly searched for coffee, didn’t know we find the hippest nicest spot ever! My flat white was amazing and my wife’s oatmeal with the strawberry compote was one of the best breakfast items we ever found anywhere. Thank you!!“

“THE BREAKFAST AND LUNCH (FOOD OVERALL) IS AMAZING!!! WOW, THE BEST I'VE HAD IN CENTRAL JERSEY. EVERYTHING IS COOKED TO PERFECTION. THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME HAVING THEIR BREAKFAST AND LUNCH AND THIS PLACE HAS WON ME OVER. IM VERY PICKY WHEN IT COMES TO A GOOD BREAKFAST, THIS PLACE HAS FULFILLED MY NEEDS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND AND WILL REVISIT TIME-TO-TIME. SO GLAD I FINALLY FOUND A PLACE I LIKE. 🙌“

“Such a cute place. Counter guy very friendly. Great smoothies..will definitely be my to go place for coffee“

“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.“

“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.“

“Yummy My breakfast eggs and greens with avocado was amazing !“

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

“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.“

“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“

“Finally, Keansburg gets a great place to get coffee! The Customer Service is wonderful. The two women that work there are genuine and kind. The coffee is delicious and my favorite is the coconut cold brew. Aside from that I’ll typically get a Nutella strawberry scone, which is out of this world. Even if you’re not in the area coming to pass through is definitely a good idea.“

“Bakers on Broad has quickly become a town favorite in Red Bank, and after visiting, I totally get why! Tucked right on Broad Street, this spot has such a warm, inviting vibe—great for sitting down and relaxing with a book, or just grabbing a coffee with friends. The owner clearly puts a lot of care into this place—the dessert and baked goods menu actually changes from time to time. Love that energy that I can walk in and always try a different coffee special, for instance. I ordered an Iced Madagascar Vanilla Latte. The coffee was incredibly smooth and delicious. Also would love to grab one of their artisan bagels next time, since I’ve heard they are phenomenal. That and I will have to try a house-made baked good (the menu rotates so just get whatever looks good that day). Everything looks fresh and it it clear that the drinks and food alike are made with care. The employees are super nice, too. Easily one of the best cafes in the area. Whether you’re a Red Bank local or just passing through, do yourself a favor and stop in!“

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

“Love this place and the folks who run it! Fresh food and great service every time! The French dip Sammy is THE BOMB!💣. The best👍“

“Great place for breakfast. They give soooo much food. Kids meal is small for an older kid but you can just add a side dish if needed, or just share the food from your own ample plate. Friendly service, and great coffee too! Even went back for breakfast the next day.“

“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!!!“

“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:)“

“When you want the best ���“

“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.“

“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!“

“Best bakery in the area, so many fresh choices. our favorites are the eclairs, crumb cake and cupcakes.“

“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 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!“

“totally blown away . yummy“

“Stopped by for breakfast after a hike around Rocky Point Trail. I had the ham and cheese croissant and my friends had the almond croissant. They were both phenomenal. I'm a savory fan so the thick salty ham at the center made me happy. The almond croissant had some chocolate and was decadent as well. The interior is so pretty with its pastries and decor. Service was quick and we were able to sit at their tables outside and enjoy our croissants in the nice weather.“

“Great ice cream and friendly atmosphere! 5 stars!“

“I came from Massachusetts with my family to visit, and it did not disappoint! All. The merchandise is beyond adorable! The tabby cake was good but a little Sweeter than expected, the coffee selection was good too ,but I'm writing this review for Nancy ! She was incredible, so personable , so easy to talk too and patient, this girly loves her job and it shows in her amazing customer service skills
She made the experience worth the 6 hour drive I would come back just for her !“

“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!“

“Absolutely enamored with The Grey Street. The falafel was utterly exceptional — impeccable flavor, and easily the best I’ve had at the shore. Strawberry matcha PHENOMENAL!!!

The team was attentive, and genuinely hospitable. A truly delightful experience from start to finish.“

“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.“

“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 💕“

“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.“

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

“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.“

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

“Nice variety of great food items, hot and cold drinks and even items for your four-legged friends. Friendly staff eager to serve you. Convenient hours. Drive up, walk in or order on the internet...all very convenient. i highly recommend this Dunkin Donut!“
