“Food is Amazing . Always bursting with flavors! I door dash from my work frequently and never disappointed only impressed“

“My family and I are obsessed with this place! All of the young workers are so kind and courteous. They are constantly cleaning up the yogurt machines and the topping stations and it looks super nice.
There's a wide variety of toppings and they're not basic either! My favorite is the sauce/ wet topping station. It's got everything from hot fudge to marshmallow drizzle and reese's peanut butter sauce!
I honestly can say I enjoy coming here more than getting an ice cream from an ice cream place. I'd highly recommend it for the topping selection and lots of variety.
Shoutout to the workers and owner for their great business! Also, the fish aquarium is so pretty and they're always playing something fun on TV for my kids to watch. 10/10!“

“I am leaving a production catering review. My Kitchen Witch provided catering to a large production crew and security where I work (a large historical building on Wall Street). I couldn't believe how quick and professional that My Kitchen Witch was in set-up, the meals, and the breakdown of their service. The food was excellent, especially the pork carnitas and Mexican street corn! I definitely highly recommend and would love to head to their cafe in Monmouth Beach, New Jersey!“

“Damaris was a great waitress! Very cheery, amazing attitude, and overall a great person! Alongside that, the chicken was juicy, the Mac and cheese was perfect, and the Iced tea quenches your thirst with ease. I’d recommend this to everyone I know.“

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

“1st time ordering from here. We tried the Cobb Salad to go. Owner ran out of Blue Cheese but asked if we wanted an alternate cheese. Was still delicious! Very fresh and tasty! Portion size was good. Owner was also very friendly. Even though Keansburg is desolate due to the season, this restaurant is still open and it's worth the trip to either eat in or order out from here. I recommend giving them a try if you haven't already.“

“We love going there so family friendly and kids friendly“

“My go to coffee spot whenever I visit Red Bank. The family I stay with try to take me to starbies and I MAKE THEM go to Rook. The staff were patient with my boomers who didn't understand the menu. I like that it's an in and out kinda place. Get your Joe and bounce! Rook crew, you RULE!!“

“I was coming back from Sandy Hook, and I wanted to stop for breakfast. This place caught my eye. A small but quaint place.I ordered the scramble eggs w/ cornbeef( very good ? )The service was good,very nice . I would definitely go back ( I don't know why I haven't). ????“

“If you are looking for a custom cake that looks amazing and tastes delicious, I highly recommend Cups & Cakes in Rumson. Denise and her team created a wonderful cake for our daughter with her college logo/High School grad. Everybody loved it! They go above and beyond to make your vision a reality! Thanks, Denise!“

“Great food great service!!“

“A suggestion. Middletown had to be closed due to it not being financially viable. As a daily coffee drinker and supporter of local business, I can tell you the sole reason why people choose Rook, Starbucks etc. over Booskerdoo. Your prices. A 24 oz flavored
iced latte with alternative milk is $8 and that's without tipping. That is insanity. The average person can't afford that.The largest starbucks drink with alternative milk is $7 (still pricey) and the largest Rook drink (cold brew,alternative milk) is between $5 and $6. That leaves room for tip and a reason to return frequently.“

“My wife and I are on the #eatjersey challenge to have a meal in all 564 towns of NJ. We chose The French Market for Rumson, our 108th town.

This beautiful cafe is decorated in a chic manner for atmosphere. It makes a great backdrop for your Instagram pictures.

It is mostly designed for takeout, where all orders are taken at the counter. They have a limited number of tables to eat in the well-decorated space. However, all food is served in cardboard takeout boxes with plastic utensils, much like Chinese food. (That's not very French, and not very cafe-like either.) Given the way the cafe is decorated for folks who eat in, and in a well-to-do town like Rumson, I would have expected the option to eat on regular plates w/silverware.

With that being said... the food was EXCELLENT! We both got crepes. One with egg, ham, & swiss, and the other with egg, spinach, & feta. We shared an order of French toast which was made with brioche bread. The crepes were served on a bed of salad, and the French toast was accompanied by a fruit cup.

The cafe also has a selection of pastries and cheeses. We did not try any of these, but they looked good.

If you're looking for crepes-to-go to satisfy your itch for brunch, the French Market should be on your list.“

“At the moment you come to that place the waiters give you a great feeling. Very comfortable team, it is a nice place to pass time with buddies or with your date. heavenly cuisine, experienced chef, decent price and generous service. Highly recommended.“

“you dads famous pizza💖 not to mention ur dads award winning personify 🥰🧡“

“Great customer service and delicious food“

“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!!“

“I’ve been here several times for events and it’s always an absolute BLAST! The hospitality is incredible, anything you need the managers are sure to be there to assist, from a cup of ice to setting up the event to creating a menu, they are always on POINT! You can tell how dedicated to excellence their staff is, they live for hospitality and are insanely hardworking, which is so appreciated in today’s society when it feels like no one understands good hospitality these days. We love this place, my friends and I always look forward to a birthday or celebration so we can come here!!“

“Dude. These bagels though…. Soooo good. So chewy. They also offer three, count em, three varieties of vegan cream cheese. Plain scallion and veggie.

The place is always packed and it’s cash only. Plan ahead or use the ATM.

Vegetarian options: Plain, scallion and veggie cream cheese options available“

“I have been going to gems since they first opened in Keansburg! They have good food and I understand with food cost they had to raise prices. I wish they would put a little bit more on breakfast sandwiches for what they charge. Other than that they still taste great and the employees are always friendly!“

“Love this little place. Great food! Very flavorful. I've had several dishes. Their Pollo colombiano is delish! The Pargo whole fish is another great dish as well the steaks & sancocho. The empanadas & pan de bono are one of my favorite. The servers are very friendly. A nice informal spot. Live music on Sat.“
