“First time at Mind The Gap Coffee! I drove 30 minutes to try their coffee and matcha, and both iced lattes were 10/10 😋. I also grabbed an almond croissant for my mom, and she loved it! The café has super cute aesthetics. Though it was a bit pricey—$26 for two drinks and a croissant—but totally worth the drive. I’ll definitely be back! 💕“

“Hands down one of the BEST Starbucks experiences I’ve ever had! From the moment I walked in, the energy was warm, positive, and welcoming.

Ushna and Jen were absolutely phenomenal — friendly, attentive, and genuinely joyful. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and their kindness truly made my day.

And then there's Kayla, a truly outstanding barista. Her professionalism and positive attitude made my visit feel welcoming and memorable, not just transactional. She made my drink perfectly—clearly taking pride in her craft—and did it all with a genuine smile and great energy.

Together, Kayla, Ushna, and Jen form the kind of team which elevates the entire Starbucks experience. Huge thanks to Kayla and company for going above and beyond.

This is the kind of experience that keeps people coming back again and again. Five stars all the way! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Went around 7pm and they actually had sold out of munchkins but wasn’t the end of the world and the cashier said that she still had a few donuts left. She was very nice and she was very patient with us. Definitely recommend instead of the other Dunkin down the road.“

“Having coffee and working on laptop. Gentleman comes in, orders and inappropriately starts complaining it wasn’t right. The young lady offered every option to help him. She was genuine, professional and really tried everything but he wouldn’t hear any of her solutions. Funny thing is it seemed like it WAS what he ordered. He oddly walked in and out a few times making the situation worse, finally leaving. Had it escalated beyond his complaints, I would have intervened. Fortunately it didnt come to that. Especially on Sept 11. Be happy and be proud- not a whiney PITA. Bravo to the staff for their courteous and customer dedicated demeanor.“

“Excellent service and the staff was very welcoming..“

“I enjoyed spendinding a few hour here on Sunday morning sipping espresso and using complimentary wifi. I was looking for a place like this near Rutgers university. Other options did not have free parking, so this was an easy choice, which I don't regret!“

“Very cute, comfortable, and cozy. Staff was professional, friendly and warm. However, very overpriced! A plain bagel was almost $4, with nothing on it, and a 12 Oz latte was almost $8. The price charged at check out did not matched the price posted on the menu. I thought that was interesting.“

“Great food and reasonable price!!!“

“An Episode of the Podcast Local neighborhood experts Sharon and Kyle was filmed here 1/8/25 at California Cold Co in Brick NJ. Upon first entering this chic coffee shop, you can’t help but noticing the stylish trendy muted palettes, industrial ceiling and altogether sophisticated atmosphere. The key elements are clean lines, uncluttered space, and focus on natural elements. The star of the show the coffee. My co-host Kyle and I stayed with the traditional coffee with a shot of espresso and cold brew, however, there are endless specialty coffee drinks to choose from as we were leaving. We were offered a complimentary avocado toast, which was delicious. If you’re looking for Instagrammable photos and modern space look no further than California Cold Co. in Brick New Jersey.
