“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!“
“My only regret is that I didn't try this place sooner. I called ahead for a reservation since we had a group of 8 - and it was a positive experience right from when they answered the phone.They're not relying just on the fact that they're doing something great here socially. Everything was fantastic and I plan to return soon. Check it out and see for yourself!“
“BRIAN MAKES THE BEST GOD DANG BURGERS I'VE HAD ALL YEAR, or..... ever? I've tried the Canadian Maple and the French Onion burger. I'll be trying the rest soon.His Cuban sandwich has a pork cut in it that is cooked sous vide, you can't beat this at this price point.“
“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.“
“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 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). ????“
“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.“
“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.“
“Great menu and open kitchen concept. The menu has some really eclectic items and I had breakfast and the regular Eggs Benedict. But there was so much great lunch stuff that I ended up getting a quart of Guinness Stew and a quart of chili to go, both were excellent! I dropped almost 100.00 on breakfast and to go items ?Vegetarian options: There are definitely vegetarian items all over the menu.Kid-friendliness: I saw children in there and items on the menu.“
“I come here often. You will wait for a seat. You will wait for your food and it's worth it. Love the staff. The ladies the young men are marvelous. I drive far to come here. It's worth it. My coffee mug is never even halfway empty.“
“Small clean restaurant with counter seating. I had lunch here today with my niece. I ordered the steak chimmurra taco and it was absolutely amazing. Next ime I'll order the sauce on the side though because it won't be as messy to eat if dipped. Also, the blueberry drink was superb. A bit expensive, as organic is, but worth it. I'll be back!“
“OMG went there for the 1st time the other day and I'm like : why haven't I been here sooner the food was amazing cheap prices and OMG the portion don't come if u just snacked because the portions are huge I was so blown away how inexpensive it is and how big the meals and service icing on the cake. U won't be disappointed oh and they have T-shirts and coffee much u can buy too“
“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!!“

“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.“

“Most aren't aware that in addition to their amazing hams/turkeys/side dishes/desserts that they make really great sandwiches. I'm hoping the corporation figures out an advertising strategy to bring more people in so they will be open on Sunday's as well.It looks like I'm unable to post this review without choosing categories that don't impact my review so apologies if they seem irrelevant. Quarter baked honey ham just isn't a choice and the ones I have the company doesn't sell.“
“Wow this is a hidden gem. Great customer service. Food was amazing. The croissant is a MUST try. They warm it up and butter it perfectly. It was my first time there. I didnt know what to order. One of the waitress' recommended the Oaxaca sandwich. So I ordered Oaxaca sandwich. Best sandwich I've had thus far. Everything was perfect. This place is a must try. I'll be back. And prices were reasonable.“
“Friendliest bar in Monmouth County. Focus is on the genuine, rather than the pretty. If you care about the décor, go elsewhere. If you care about non-pretentious, friendly folks, and cheap drinks, and good, down-to-earth food, this place is tough to beat.“

“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!“
“Awesome coffee... Nice/simple service... Jus wish they brought back some indoor seating and spruced the place up a little bit inside. But, it was a beautiful day out so sitting outside under the canopy to the side of the shop was perfect. Highly recommended for a solid cup of coffee with quality ingredients you can honestly taste! Will be back!!“
“In a strip center, easy to find. We tried the butternut squash soup, white bean with vegetables, the carrots and ginger, the chicken chili and the portobello soup. All are amazing and will warm up your bones! My favorite was the carrot and ginger, and they are all homemade and delicious.“
“Great place to visit if you in need of some quick food, fast service, with friendly employees, really cant go wrong with anything on the menu, from the bagels to the sandwiches everything is just right ! been going there for years and its not going to stop now !!!“
“What a cute little coffee spot in RedBank right across from the Train station. It's located right in the Sickles market. I went there and worked on my laptop for a few hours to get out of the house and the atmosphere was so nice. There was a man with his huge dog that everyone seems to know. The workers are super friendly. This place is great !!!“
“Boardwalk Coffee is a gem hidden just off Pier Village. Yes, it's attached to the resort, but the vibe is very much a trendy coffee shop. And the food and coffee are considerably better than some of it's chain-brand neighbors.And if you're in the area at night, they run special events through the coffee shop. Check them out!“
“This is my favorite restaurant I have ever been to.The young waitress does a fantastic job! The restaurant gets extremely busy but I don't mind the wait (25 mins is honestly nothing for how good the food is). I have absolutely no complains about the restaurant.I am definitely happy they have choose good waitstaff. I enjoy each one of them when I come in. Keep up the good work guys!!!“
“Not only are the baked goods delicious, but the woman who was working behind the bakery counter was such a kind soul. I was having lunch down the street at a place where there was no restroom, and I went into 2 other businesses asking to use the restroom and was turned away. When I came here, she let me use the restroom even though it wasn’t for the public, and then sent me home with a complimentary lemon bar. It was so unexpectedly nice - I wish more people ran their businesses this way.“
