15 Best Cafes near Seaside Heights

“Delicious, delicious, and delicious! This is the most Authentic Mexican food I've ever eaten! Me and my family came to jersey for vacation and they saw this restaurant and I'm very glad they did. So many different options from breakfast and foods and they still are adding more to the menu! I ate the Nutella Frensh toast with fruit and they served like 4 of them and a Montes Burrito and it was HUGE! Both were an amazing portion for just $20. The coffee also is very good! Everything about this restaurant is authentic and the service is very good as well“

“Ok, I came yesterday and it was amazing. Teas and Lattes are great. (Not trues coffee yet).Today this Mango Checken Nacho [and in Hate Mango, but mom insisted]... Amazing! I like Mango now.Visit #3 - got the special veggies Buffalo wrap! ? this is amazing!And the Avocado Tofu Scamble toast which I give it an 8. (I'd change 2 things to make it 10 in my book, 1. Heat the plate to prevent toast from cooling down. 2. Spread the toppings to be mixed and not three separate)Atmosphere: seats are too hard, and straight backed. The menu alone is reason to, but it's just not comfortable. Too much hookah art LOL.“

“From the moment my amazing girlfriend and I walked into this quaint cafe, we fell in love with the vibes, decor, smells and more so, the people. They were so accommodating. They walked us through it all and ended up with the best breakfast. We're from Chicago and this place hit the spot! Cheers, Lava Java House ☕️“

“Stopped in for breakfast while in town for the weekend. Service was super friendly and quick for our party of 4 adults and 3 kids. Everyone enjoyed their food. All of the food was flavorful and fresh. It's a bit on the smaller side inside, but we were seated quite fast for a large group on a Sunday morning!“

“So this morning I stumbled upon this place while walking around Arnold's Marina waiting for a friend and let me say I was blown away!! I have never in my life been to such a cute little diner. It's super clean and tidy. The staff are professional and in uniform. The food and service were like a dream! I mean I felt like I had been plucked from reality and placed in a perfect diner in some fairy tale! ? I can go on and on. But that was my initial feeling about Castaways. I can't wait to get back for lunch with my wife!! Thank you Castaways!!“

“I love this place! I wish they were open earlier so I could get a juice to take to work every morning. The prices really can’t be beat and it’s so close to me. I’ve had their juices, açaí bowls, breakfast wrap and blended bowls. Everything has been really fresh and delicious. The staff is always friendly and helpful too, which is huge. My new favorite “

“Found a new shore breakfast place. Huge menu. Great innovative choices! Great pricing. Light, roomy and bright atmosphere. Large servings and raisin toast as a toast choice.Chicken and waffles, lots of avocado toast selections, smoothies, crab-cake eggs Benedict and Brownstone-style milkshakes at half the price.Order your potatoes and hash well-done though,Try it. I shared their menu.“

“I have always been used to going to the deli for breakfast sandwiches, and had never tried the meals until recently. I ordered the meal plan and every meal was delicious. I definitely will be going back and ordering again next month. generous portions, great sides, and delivery what more can you ask?“

“Considering how many people have said nothing but good things about this cafe, I’m happy to join the club! Haven’t personally come in yet but we ordered through door dash and the food was phenomenal ? Got a: Cappuccino, Iced Shelly Special, Pork Roll Breakfast Sandwich, and the Grilled Cheese. Not to mention, they have a variety of different options and even poke bowls! So delicious and the coffee is smooth and not bitter tasting like other cafes make (coming from someone who always masks coffee with tons of sugar lol). Will definitely be coming in to try more of their menu items, and if you’re down in the area, don’t pass up on eating here ☕️?Dietary restrictions: Have a lot of dairy free options for the coffees which I love!“

“Outstanding service and portion sizes are huge for reasonable prices. My 14 year old son frequents here alone, and they always treat him with the utmost respect and kindness. They allowed the girl scouts to setup a place to sell, which I thought was nice. Especially on a busy Saturday morning.“

“Nice spot in downtown Toms River. Really nice staff, extensive menu with good variety, and in our four visits, have not had one dish we didn't enjoy. Quickly becoming our go to spot to stop in for a nice meal or get take out.Parking: Depending on time of visit, local street parking can be somewhat difficult“

“I happened to come across this cute place in Google maps search since I was in area. I did online order and it was done pretty quickly! The place was very clean and a lot of cute plushies and decor and tasty food!I ordered a medium Cinnamon Toast Crunch Shake and a Bubbles 07 special crepe and it was all very tasty! The crepe was stuffed full and the filling has equal parts meat and veggies and was enough to feed two. The shake has lots of cinnamon toast crunch goodness. I really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend and come back to this place again“

“We needed a quick bite and decided to give Big Dogs a try. The staff was super kind and our food came out super fast. The mozzarella sticks are not to be missed… we couldn’t even finish them. All American Burger was fresh and didn’t leave us in a greasy daze. Will come back! Thank you to the kind people there.“

“This place is charming and delicious. It's a little expensive but ALL of the ingredients are very fresh. I'd rather pay the money for good healthy food. Ashley was the one who suggested avocado toady with fresh organic tomatoes and an egg. She also gave me some arugula. I ordered the green drink. "This will make you feel good,"she said. She was 100% correct. All of the other breakfast places around are those unhealthy bagel places. This was a wonderful find.“

“Every Saturday morning I order 1 1/2 dozen for Sunday ! I bring them to my church for our after service fellowship...We love JT's! There's not a bagel that compares! Awesome flavors, airways soft and fresh! The price is great! And my church family enjoys it time together so much every week!“
