The cutest and most charming coffee shop and market among the shore towns ever! We stopped by today and out front are two pop up businesses next to an outdoor sitting area. Walking in surrounding the coffee bar are unique home goods, goods from local craftsmen and artisans, and products to check out. The focus on products here is local, and that makes the market somewhere I want to frequent and support. There is a display case in the middle for basic groceries and produce/fruit as well as a fridge case for refrigerated items.

But lemme get to the coffee and drinks...the coffee is rich, strong, and flavorful. The baristas informed us that the coffee is brewed Australian style so it's stronger than regular coffee. A single pull is double the espresso from the coffee machine resulting in a powerful coffee drink that will last you thru the day however you like it made. I'm a double espresso over ice kinda person so this was absolu perfect for me. My niece had the lavender lemonade, and that lemonade is fresh and delicious! I got there a little late in the afternoon after lunch so I had no room for pastries or baked goods, but even those are made locally from local bakers!

The service was great...efficient and friendly! Plus the shop is right across the street from the handicapped entrance to the beach.

I'm looking forward to getting my caffeine kicks from this shop the next time I'm in Squan!

Tucked away in Manasquan, this hidden gem of a restaurant boasts some of the most delectable and reasonably priced options in the area. The amiable and friendly staff, coupled with the owner's exceptional care and dedication to The Breeze, truly set this establishment apart. The menu features a plethora of options, with standouts being The Breeze Wrap and Julia’s Grilled Chicken Wrap. Noteworthy are the perfectly executed tots, a seemingly simple dish that underscores the meticulous attention to detail evident throughout the entire menu. Surprisingly, the prices are incredibly fair, adding to the overall appeal. Since its inception, this establishment has been a favorite of mine, and I eagerly anticipate returning for years to come. The Breeze comes highly recommended for its exceptional quality and service.

I would give this place all the stars if I could. I came here last year when I was pregnant and continued this year haah. The girls at the front counter are the sweetest and the manager is also very kind. Hands down best croutons and BLT ever. Look at my profile and see the reviews I give. I’m very honest. I recommend this place to everyone. Now my daughter can eat here ❤️

I went here over the summer after spending the day at Manasquan Beach. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries.First off, the burger doesn’t come with anything. It’s $8 on its own and adding cheese is an additional dollar. For $9, I’d expect some lettuce, tomato, onion, anything. The french fries on their own are $6.The burger tasted almost identical to the burger patties I’d be served in a school cafeteria. Same texture and taste. The fries were crinkle cut out of a frozen bag for sure. This entire meal resembled a school lunch.I could get a better burger and fries from Wendy’s for less that $15, the total I spent here.I can’t speak to anything else on the menu because I’m not willing to give this place another try.

Was craving a burger to eat after the beach but was thoroughly disappointed with the quality. The patty tastes exactly as if they got it straight from the local school freezers, awful grey mush. Not only that but it was just the patty and cheese, no salad to even try and save it. Only redeeming aspect of it was the bread. I can imagine the rest of the menu being alright but I wouldnt know.

I don't understand how this place isn't absolutely packed all the time, they literally hit every point. Most importantly, the food is excellent - the tots and eggs salsa dish was filling and delicious, and their caprese wrap was so light and refreshing. Then shockingly the prices were absolutely reasonable? Like the same general price range as a bagel shop, despite their location being right off the beach. The interior is super cute and simple and the staff were super helpful and friendly toward our kid. Absolutely planning on returning!

We walked straight off the beach and across the street. Food was reasonably priced and tasty. Our 3 year old made a mess, but the staff and owner were amazing about the whole event.

Kid-friendliness: Staff was awesome about kids and the mess associated with them.

Have stopped in twice this week for lunch and have enjoyed my experience both times. I felt the turkey club sandwich was made very well. The young staff was very cordial, even with my young energetic kids around. I would highly recommend The Breeze when heading to Manasquan Beach.
