“Just found this little gem of a place. Got the grilled chicken sandwich. It was really good. Plus they have poppi soda which is always a plus. I wish they offered bread options with the sandwiches instead of just rolls. My sandwich on sourdough would have been perfect. Great place. I will be ordering a lot from here“

“This is hands down the best coffee shop I’ve ever been to. Everything I’ve ever had here has blown my expectations. The honey bear latte is 1000/10 strawberry matchas and earl grey matchas 1000/10. And there pastry’s and savory foods are amazing. And a great vibe inside and in there backyard. The only thing you should avoid is there house made milks. But everything is amazing“

“Great coffee and croissant. I will be back.“

“Frequent customer, but always blown away with the freshness of their summer menu. The shrimply the best tacos, which was originally on a tostada last summer, was just as amazing, but didn’t sit as heavy as a tostada. Love the move to a light tortilla. The Mexi-Avo toast was so filling and the flavors melted together so nicely. Don’t forget the decor inside is so cozy, boho/havana vibe and perfect for a date or girl’s brunch. 10/10“

“This was a soul quenching phenomena. Mike told me he got in around noon. A gem of a barista, people like him are an enormous part of the reason this culture and vibe are so revered.

Specialty coffee is anything if
not stylish, and like all things sophisticated, worth traveling for and often, waiting for. I will say though, if you go late it may be quiet enough to see the shop in a special and nuanced glow.

And yes, there is something about a remarkable cafe that just epitomizes it…. The connection to where the flavor comes from. Bean to mug, farm to table, and although the beans drift through the air and over oceans, if the culture of storytelling hits just right, you can get more than a cup of coffee at the right place.“

“Absolutely love Pop’s Bagels! The bagels are always fresh, perfectly baked, and have just the right texture crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. There’s a great variety of flavors and spreads to choose from, and everything tastes high quality.

The staff is friendly, fast, and keeps things moving even when it’s busy. The shop itself is clean and has a welcoming vibe, which makes the experience even better. Whether you’re grabbing a quick breakfast or a coffee, you’re in and out without a long wait.

Highly recommend Pop’s Bagels if you’re looking for a great bagel spot definitely one of my go-to places! 🥯“

“Love this outlet mall! Check it out!“

“Great dinner tonight. Sushi out of sight! Everyone’s meal was fabulous! Our server Brielle was so knowledgeable, her recommendations were spot on. She was so happy and her service was great! To top it off the ice cream was delivered to our table😋“

“the complimentary wifi is always welcomed when patronizing any establishment. as a first time visit to this location, it was very bright and open. i got a pick two for lunch and was asked abt my beverage but not if i wanted bread or an apple. perhaps they didn't have apples. idk🤷🏽‍♀️the bread i didn't eat bc i already had bread for my sandwich. i would have been nice to be asked my choices. the same way Ashley asked abt my beverage choice. it's always nice to be asked.“

“This spot is a gem! Hands down some of the best home-made breakfast sandwiches I’ve had in ages. If you’re looking for servers and a pro kitchen, this is not the spot for you. If the idea of a bangin’ home cook serving up breakfast sandwiches through a little side hustle out of her kitchen appeals to you, this is highly recommended.The pork roll egg and cheese and bacon egg and cheese were both favorites of my girlfriend and I.Be advised: cash only and if it’s busy you may have to wait. It’s a one person operation but it’s worth it. There are a few tables outside but this is really more of a grab and go place.“

“Amazing food and the service is great too. The portions are big, I get 2 meals! Come in for the baked items, so yummy!“

“Visited in June 2025 for brunch during business trip. This charming tea shop never disappoints - been coming here since my London days when friends first introduced me.\n\n**FOOD QUALITY:**\nOrdered the Devon Cream Tea (around £9) - absolutely perfect. Two fresh scones served warm (cut into 4 pieces) with clotted cream and jam. The scones are lightly toasted and incredibly addictive! - easily finished all 4 pieces. This is clearly what most customers come for, and rightfully so.\n\nPreviously tried their sandwiches which are also excellent - substantial portions with great flavors, perfect for lunch.\n\n**ATMOSPHERE:**\nAuthentic old-style British tea shop atmosphere. Traditional decor - quintessentially British experience.\n\n**SERVICE:**\nEfficient and professional staff. Not overly chatty but very competent and quick service once seated. No unnecessary fuss - just good, reliable service.\n\n**WAITING TIME:**\nReservations may be possible (worth checking ahead!) though I walked in and waited. Had 3 groups ahead of me during busy period. Recommend either arriving early or calling to check booking availability to avoid queues.\n\n**VALUE:**\nExcellent value at £9 for cream tea set. Generous portions with large pot of tea and two substantial scones. Quality justifies the price completely.\n\n**LOCATION:**\nClassic London tea shop experience in the heart of the city. Perfect stop during sightseeing or business breaks.\n\n**PERFECT FOR:** Traditional British tea experience, tourists wanting authentic atmosphere, locals seeking quality comfort food, no issue with solo dining which is good!\n\n**TIPS:** Arrive early to avoid queues, definitely try the scones, consider takeaway option\n\nThis is my go-to spot every time I'm in London. The scones alone make it worth the visit - truly the best I've had anywhere. Highly recommend for anyone wanting an authentic British tea shop experience.“

“This place really surprised me! I just stopped in for a cup of coffee but spotted a large, heavy box of assorted brownies, blondies, and brookies, perfect for a party I was on my way to. And it really was perfect, a total hit! I had a brookie and it was amazing, so soft and delicious! I feel so lucky to have tripped across such a wonderful dessert box! Everyone loved it!“

“Great food, good service, and I like how it’s a boat themed restaurant“

“The food was spectacular, great service, quick to get seated even though they were super busy. Not a single note.“

“Great place! I’ve been on a hunt for some good Nova lox in the Toms River area and this is the only place that has quality lox so far!!! It isn’t too salty, it isn’t slimy, and it isn’t chewy like a lot I have tried. It’s the perfect amount of smoke and salt that you’d want, and not fishy at all!

The owners were so nice and welcoming and let me try the lox before buying it, very genuine people who care about customer satisfaction.

I did also purchase 2 bagels which were also very good! 10/10 recommend, I will be going back!“

“Third visit each time at a different location. Million dollar bacon #1 pick. Arianna in Brick was all alone on the floor @ 9am on a Sunday but she didn’t miss a beat. Great service!! Food amazing ! I’m not a coffee drinker usually but coffee was good enough for a second cup. Morning Meditation is great too
We will keep coming back“

“just as soon as u walk in the door.. You're greeted with a smile and a good morning..I met vickie who was just wonderful..the chef Philip is so knowledgeable and always up for a question.. Delicious fresh food“

“The Bomber Sandwich is tremendous. Have known the owners for years. Always great 👍 food 🥘“

“Wonderful place with great and different food combinations in their omelets, eggs, and sandwiches. Didn’t get to taste the pancakes, that looked amazing ! Love this place 😍“

“If you are looking for a high-quality bagel in the Belmar area, the Corner Bagelry is a standout choice. The shop has a welcoming atmosphere that fits perfectly with the local community. It is clear they focus on freshness, which makes a difference in the overall experience compared to other local spots.m

The egg bagel is my go to here. I ordered mine toasted with butter, and it was excellent. The texture was exactly what you want—a soft, flavorful interior with just the right amount of chew. It was prepared perfectly, with the butter melted evenly across the bagel, enhancing the flavor without making it greasy enough r leaving a puddle in my car.

The staff was efficient and friendly, and maintained a clean and organized area. It is a reliable spot for a consistent, high-quality breakfast, and I would certainly recommend stopping by if you are in the neighborhood.“

“Great atmosphere great food“

“Went here after physical therapy as they are in the same building. The coffee was great- lots of selections- and the food was freshly made to order and delicious. I have had breakfasts and lunches here and always been pleased. They do tend to be on the 'health conscious' side which is nice! They offer a lot of things that you don't get in regular places. They also make smoothies and fresh salads. Go there even if you aren't going to the gym, p/t or a doctor appointment!!“

“Stopped in tonight with a party of 10 tonight. The service was great and the food was delicious. If your in the area give it a try.“

“Food is good. Service: i received a pager when I ordered my food with a real person. Food took a while so I went up to the window and discovered my food sitting there. I asked why my pager wasnt activated or my name called, really didn't get an answer. Atmosphere: there is no cold air barrier at either of the front doors. The whole restaurant was frigid. Go to the one in Toms River next time.“
