“I love the choice of coffees but am not a fan of the food selection, most of which has a very high sodium content. The food issue is not unique to this Starbucks. This is a large location with plenty of places to sit and work on your laptop or phone.Wheelchair accessibility: It is accessible with plenty of parking. Limited vegetarian options.“
“Wow, the food was fantastic, prepared to perfection with quality fresh ingredients, the Poblano Molé was amazing, as was the lime cake for dessert, Michael who was taking care of us for dinner was attentive, personable and welcoming. Best in “
“I came to the establishment early as I was working in the area I ended up bringing home a bunch of different things home for my wife who is from Honduras. She loved everything I bought and two days later we went back she loaded up on nearly everything they had and I can definitely say we found our new spot to eat and cater from. The staff was extremely eager to help with all the questions we had all I can say is if you’re in the area give this spot a try you won’t regret it.Kid-friendliness: We had our 4 year old son the kind women gave my son a lollipop that made his time there a lot more fun“
“I have been coming to Steady Hand since the summer. Love the rotating menu options but the pistachio latte has been my favorite. So much my favorite that I also had to purchase the pistachio Good Good syrup to make it at home! And also can’t forget to mention Ashley, the owner, who is so friendly and always down for a chat while she is whipping up your drink!“
“Cappuccino with caramel shot - wildly good. Had two. My coffee rating: 9.5/10. This is going to be my go-to coffee spot. Also, the chipotle sammie had one of the best chipotle sauces I've had in my life (and I'm a big self proclaimed chipotle flavor connoisseur). Brioche + soft eggs + micro greens + that chipotle sauce = coming back soon.“

“Booskerdoo Middletown donated hot chocolate for our local elementary school holiday event. It was such a hit! The kids loved the cocoa (peppermint and regular, mmmm) and it added such a special touch to the PTO organized family evening. Booskerdoo in general is great, but the Middletown location takes it a step beyond with their generosity, kind service, and personal touch from Jeff, the owner, who is almost always there making sure everything is running smoothly! You won’t get this type of caring and desire to be a part of the local community from just any coffee spot!Kid-friendliness: Great location for kids and a business that cares about the local community!“
“This is my favorite coffee shop of all time. Love the atmosphere - always somewhere to sit, with space between tables and not too loud so perfect to have a conversation or work. Mainly have espresso based drinks personally, which are great.“
“I've eaten at the Rise n Shine on occasion and find it's no frills local hometown vibe inviting. I prefer sitting at the counter old school and watching the traffic go by as I enjoy a delicious omlette. The owners are very friendly and welcoming, and the food is excellent.“
“I love this place. It’s a welcoming, charming environment. The staff is friendly, polite and fast. They have a cool outdoor space you can enjoy on a sunny day and sometimes listen to the music of a local musician while enjoying your food and drink. I only partake in the coffee and it’s my favorite place in town, among several good options. Keep being awesome, CC!“
“I’ve had the pleasure of partaking in dine in and take out on the same day. I was in town for work. I wish I lived closer because this place is great. The food is fresh, and well prepared. The cold brew was very good as well. Wonderful staff and great ambiance inside.“
“Small cafe/diner offering breakfast and lunch. Nice menu offering a good variety. Tasty omelettes and sandwich options. We last visited on a Sunday and the place was quite busy, but seating was available after a short 5 minute waitThis place gets quite busy on the weekends. Meter parking available.“
“I have loved this place since the original in Little Silver when they were lunch and a small dinner venue. They had the best homemade soup. Now that they have expanded and our primarily breakfast and lunch the are still amazing. And I've been to multiple....Toms River, Long Branch, Sea Girt, Cherry Hill, etc. Consistent no matter which one you go to. And the coffee is amazing too. I love my French presses!“
“My husband and I drove up from Toms River for the Cannoli kit after experiencing it at a party . It was a Sunday and the girl behind the counter was very rude and said we don’t have any they need to be ordered a head of time , thankfully RALPH walked in and saved the day he went above and beyond to get us what we came for ! If you don’t know the lay of the store you shouldn’t be working there ! Customer service should be a priority and she certainly wasn’t willing to try helping . I will be back but hopefully someone who wants to help the customer is working!“
“Perfect relaxing breakfast with the family. Seated right away on a Wednesday morning. Friendly wait staff and great service. Ordered The big easy benedict and huevos rancheros, a French press, German chocolate latte and 3 different hot chocolates (for the kiddos). Everything was delicious and fresh. The price is very good if not better than most common diners in this area. The food and coffee is 1000% better too. This is our favorite breakfast place when we visit NJ. Definitely recommend.“
“These donuts are delicious but they really need to update their hours on Google and their sign. I just drove 45 mins from Tom’s River because it said they were open. Got here and they were closed even though the hours on the door said they should be open as well as on Google. I’m very disappointed :(“
“A great small coffee spot in Ocean Grove! Friendly staff and owner, great coffee, and a decent selection of teas. They display local art and have a couch and tables for seating. They offer good food that rotates with the season (quiche is my favorite).They also offer FREE bananas if you buy something! FREE BANANAS! That is awesome!“
“My last west coast trip spoiled me, and I'm on a quest to find amazing coffee near me (open to recommendations), so I'm trying new coffee places as much as I can. Busy Bee is inside a gas station, and has very good coffee. I had a caramel macchiato and it was a solid 7.5/10 (my coffee rating scale is as arbitrary as myself). There's also a generous collection of food offerings - I tried something similar to a deviled sausage (I didn't get its name) and it was delicious.“
“1st Cup Coffee is very reasonable & the coffee is delicious in the wonderful town of Atlantic Highlands. You will get great service as well. They have seating to come & relax or grab your coffee & go.1st Cup has an amazing room in the back that you can rent for a very low cost. I just had an event for my real estate business here & they treated me top notch with great coffee. If you need space for a local event or you are having a speaker, this is the place to be. You can not beat the price. I am planning my next event. Thanks Bob!! My guest loved the event.“
“Very good breakfast. Hit the spot. Went around 10:30 place was full but was able to get a seat pretty quickly. I had a belly buster omelet and my mother had eggs over easy with a ham steak. We both had coffee. Hers was nice mine was hot. Our bill was roughly 10 dollars cheaper than most of the breakfast places we go to, only catch is CASH ONLY - but super worth it.“
“They were very attentive. Staff was amazing. They answered questions and helped me immediately. Besides the macaroons, the tarts, the cookies, and the quiche, the fruit parfait that I got was probably the best that I ever ate in my entire life. No lie!“
“Great little coffee shop on Main Street in Bradley Beach. It can be easy to miss between the hustle and bustle of the brewery and breakfast restaurant next-door but keep an eye out for Paired. I stopped in on a Saturday morning just for some coffee and the folks behind the counter were pretty busy, but the service was fast and very friendly. I am more of a classic ice coffee person and they serve cold brew but that wasn't enough for me to knock off a star. A little on the pricier side but it is understandable because I ordered a cold brew and the location. So make your way to Bradley Beach and grab some coffee and snacks from this great new place.“
“How can anyone not love Rook? Between the fun branding, and delicious coffee, and punk-rock resistance to BIG COFFEE, this company is the go-to brew of the Jersey Shore.Parking: Be careful and cautious with the shared parking situation as many are grabbing and going. That said, I've never not seen a space.“

“Just stopped in to grab their soup and some ice cream.I couldn't decide on just one soup so I got 2, the vegetable & lobster bisque and they are both so good. The flavors are delicious, the amount & variety of vegetables in the veggie soup are perfect. The lobster bisque it was a great portion of soup & lobster.Also, I've had there ice cream several times but always go back for my favorite Almond Joy.Their staff is always welcoming and pleasant too every time.Love this little gem in Keyport.“
“We ordered 3 pumpkin style cold brews! Each were $5 and this place is amazing. They don't charge extra for milk replacements. Go ahead and order your almond, oat milk or more! They got busier as we were waiting for our order. They sell merchandises like sweaters, cups and etc. Super cute! FYI the coffee is a little strong and typically it doesnt come sweetened- must ask for it!“
“Have lived in NJ for almost 25 years. This is by far THE BEST pork roll egg and cheese I have had in the state. The way Johnny assembles this sandwich is perfection. Every bite you take from one of his sandwiches literally gets better as you are finishing it. From the fresh rolls, and freshly sliced pork roll to a perfectly cooked egg with just the right amount of cheese and SPK to hold it together. I can literally say as I took a bite from this sandwich my exact words were “WOW”. I’ll be coming at least once a week from Belmar just to get my fix. Keep killing it Johnny this place is awesome!“
“Hands down, best peanut butter chocolate combo cups/ball I've ever had in my life. My hubs and I hid the box from our teenagers. I've had the cookies, brownies, cupcakes, and brownie cookies. All really great. Highly recommend. The service was above and beyond as well. They even wrote to keep cold on 1 box, which was really helpful. Thank you, Cravings!“
“Really good donuts. I get Too Good to Go from here all the time. If you’re considering trying, go for it. You won’t be disappointed. You get four random donuts with it and they’re always good. The maple bacon and chocolate donuts are my favorites but everything I’ve tried from here is good. Def try the Too Good to Go app for this place because it’s more than worth it. They have a huge selection of donuts“
“Food was super fresh and healthy. I ordered a sabich sandwich, a house salad and a cappuccino. The sabich was amazing. For the salad I would request the dressing on the side next time because they put on too much dressing (was delicious anyway). I totally appreciated the 1970 decore. Everything was delicious with a homemade touch. I usually leave restaurants feeling sick because the food is so processed but not here, I left feeling amazing :)“
“The coffee was really good but the corn muffin I got was so stuck to the paper that it fell apart into pieces and was really hard to eat. It may have been a little dried out I'm not sure. The premises was clean and neat. I would come back.“
“Sheer excellence! Everything here was perfect. From the energy, to the aesthetic, to the food and the portions, the staff, the mini shop out front, everything. The owners did an excellent job at creating this place and it shows in every single detail.“
“Had to write a review of this place, it was so good! I got mint chip, and my dad got s'mores. The s'mores was so good I nearly bought my own! And the mint chip is one of the best I've ever gotten. Absolutely recommend going here, I'll be going back for sure! I'd give it 10 stars if I could.“
“A nice coffee shop on Broad Street in Red Bank. There is a lot of space and is a great place to park yourself and work. The space is bright and comfortable to relax in. They offer a variety of simple eats, baked goods and coffee beverages. They have specials like gingerbread latte. For some holiday cheer The staff is friendly and very helpful.“
“People might think Meemoms is all about those 'dessert' breakfasts. But their breakfast bowls are awesome, especially the vegetarian one called The Farmhouse. A $1 upcharge for sourdough toast? Not a highlight of my visit. You might call it a 'sour' note!“
“This café truly has it all! From top-notch customer service to a beautiful and inviting atmosphere, it checks all the boxes for a fantastic experience. The vibrant colors and cozy ambience create a warm and welcoming feeling that is simply delightful. The espresso machines are a must-try, and the sandwiches are delicious. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive vibe of the place. If you're looking for a café that excels in every aspect, look no further – this place is a gem! Treat yourself to a wonderful experience that you won't forget.“
“Food is DELICIOUS & healthy...what more could u ask for? Great service? Dana provided that, as well as went above & beyond w a special request! I'm happy to support somewhere local & will be returning often! Thank u Dana & Melonhead of SeaBright!“
“Turning Point is a GREAT place for breakfast or brunch. They close at 2 so I haven’t visited for lunch yet. The food is excellent, the decor is modern a bright, and the service is top notch. They have plenty of vegan and vegetarian options. I appreciate that the manager stopped by our table to make sure we had a pleasant experience. We did! This particular location is byob, so our bill was very affordable!!This is my go-to spot for brunch. Cheers y’all!“
“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!!“
“Highly recommend this place !!!This place is amazing! They offered the best coffee and juices which ı like most Monmouth Power It has carrot,pineapple,orange and ginger.Always the best attitude to its costumers. I just want to keep coming back to this place.???“
“This Starbucks location is great! Large parking lot and store with plenty of space for working or studying. All seats have outlets, and the tables even have hooks underneath for your bags! The seating is comfortable and the tables are always clean. The staff is nice here, and the drinks always come out quickly. The drive through is also fast, and unlike some locations, won't block in all parking spots if the line is long. This is a great location if you're looking for a good spot to work or meet up with a group.“
“I don’t believe this place is amazing ? better than any similar place for me.She’s a great person and ice cream is so delicious, creamy, tasty and the chocolates made like different earth! ?Thank you so much your service and please keep open forever. ?Perfect clean and decorating ?? gorgeous“
“I love stopping in Hudson whenever I can! The coffee options are great between the hot brewed coffee and the cold brew. The hot brewed coffees are $3, while cold brews are $4. Some specialty cold brews like the caramel cream (a delicious homemade caramel creamer) are $5. There is a medium roast available for the hot coffee, as well as a dark roast and decaf. For cold brew, there are a few flavor options in addition to plain, and I love that they're all flavored without syrups or sugar. The food options are limited to the delicious, rotating selection of scones and muffins. All are always delicious, so you can't go wrong with any choice. The porch outside is the perfect seating area in the summer. The inside is also nice for in the winter, and has coffee beans, shirts, and cold brew concentrate for purchase. Everyone is always so friendly here, and if you're a regular they will know your order quickly! It is cash only, so just be prepared for that! If you're in Keansburg, stopping at Hudson should be a must!“
“Gorgeous, charming little cafe with beautiful pastries and delicious small plates. Had to knock off a star, partially due to the lackluster service, but mostly for the typos. If your whole gimmick is being a French style cafe and market, you should probably spell the French words on your menus correctly. Love absolutely everything else about this place though!“

“Ordered 20 breakfast sandwiches to bring to a work party. They had them ready for me right at 6:30am and even cut them in halves (as requested) and labeled what each was. They also packed up ketchup, salt, pepper, and napkins for me to take. The sandwiches were great. Their food is always great, classic breakfast food, but this time they really went above and beyond and I appreciated it a ton.“
“I gave The Perfect Perk Cafe 5 out of 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Why did the barista quit their job?They were fed up with the constant grind! ?Pros and cons here we gooo!Pros:• Nice sitting area indoor and outdoor• Cool modern decor• Fast and friendly service• Perfect temperature on the coffee (not too hot or warm!)• Nice variety of pastries• Clean environment• Honey and agave nectar options as sweetener• Good selection of non-dairy milk optionsCons:• None! A wonderful experience all around!Follow me on Google for more ❤️“
“This place was a pleasant surprise, me and my Friend went here and the food and service was great but after I left It my stomach stated to fell what I ate and it didn't like but over all it was a great experience and I might come back.“
“The staff is very friendly and the service is great! I always stop in for the coffee, the Dark Roast is my favorite. I have tried everything on the menu from wraps to sandwiches and they are all very good. I definitely recommend to stop in for breakfast, lunch, or even coffee.“
“Ice cream time with dad on a nice Sunday fall afternoon. The service was nice and there wasn't a long line. Plenty of flavor options so you can keep coming back, preferably off season to avoid any line haha. Pricey although understandable due to the location on the boardwalk.“
“Highly recommend Bell Market/RBC Hospitality catering for business or personal entertaining. The team is professional, accommodating and reliable. My corporate guests were delighted by the quality and presentation of the food and beverage. Bell Market it at the top of my list!“

“hands down my favorite coffee shop. The two girls behind the counter are so friendly and seem to know every customers order by heart. The coffee is always delicious and the service is always quick; everything served with a smile! i’d give more than five stars to this store and their staff!“
“Visited Dunkin’ in RB on NS Rd. It’s Sept and the first day this season I had Pumpkin coffee which I will enjoy as a daily treat until it is not available. It was delicious from the first sip. The staff was pleasant and efficient. I also ordered an old fashioned donut bc WTH it’s Fri of LDW. The particular one I received was lighter in color (beige not warm brown)and I feel a little under cooked. It didn’t turn me off from ordering them in the future but I will pay more attention to the selection before I order. I had no problems pulling into the parking lot, finding a spot or getting out onto Broad St S. Still a great start to my LDW!“
