The owner of this establishment, Braeden Anderson is the reason for this 1 star review. I waited 70 minutes for a breakfast sandwich and a cortadito. This is unacceptable, because of Braeden. I would like to commend our barista Shane, who made excellent food and coffee drinks, despite being backed up as the only barista and working available. He deserves a raise and gold medal. Lamica, a manager, stepped up around 15 mins and made sure that our concerns were addressed. We came the previous day and had a fantastic experience, but the shop was not as busy. From the very beginning, Braeden did not acknowledge our concerns, those of other patrons, and did not even try to apologize for our experience. He said that because he has a 2 year old and his role is not that of a barista, but as an owner. I have been to many coffee shops and any reasonable owner would have apologized for such a situation and tried to make it right, not argue with all the customers in their shop. read more

Found this place on Yelp when looking for something just like this. A cute, but legit coffee shop with a small amount of breakfast food items. Staff were friendly and hard working. I got the Canadian maple latte and it was delicious! Also, super hot which I appreciated. Got a French toast muffin on the side and that flavor did not disappoint. Also, what a great combination of flavors. It's definitely pricey, like $8 for a drink, but a delicious drink with a relaxing environment. Service was a little slow for speciality type drinks, but worth it. read more

This review is specifically for the owner, Braeden Anderson who is an awful human being who exploits his employees. Context: The cafe was extremely backed up. We waited for 70 minutes for our sandwich and coffees. While his amazing employee (Shane) was struggling to keep up with the multiple orders, Braeden just sat there on the couch scrolling through Instagram while his amazing employee did all of the work. We confronted Braeden along with the other 5 customers. He took no accountability and stormed out of the store mid-conversation pissed off. Amazing coffee/staff. Disgusting owner. read more

LOVED this place! The decor was fun and relaxing, the barista was sweet and made us killer lattes. If only the small coffee houses in our town would stay open all day like this place.... read more

Found this awesome little coffee shop after a work trip in AC. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I got a S'more latte and a wake 'n bake. Latte tasted wonderful, almost like hot chocolate with gram crackers in it. The wake 'n bake was delicious and came packaged up beautifully in a little wrapper. Will definitely be stopping back the next time I am nearby. read more

I'm going to be perfectly honest. I'm not certain that this place exists. That's not to say that I haven't been quite a few times now -- I have. Only that it's such a surreal (though delightfully, consistently pleasant) experience inside that I'm hard-pressed to believe I'm not hallucinating. I've only ever seen one man serving as the barista and he invariably says the same perfectly affable prompts every time. The coffee is delicious. The tea is lovely. I've especially enjoyed their iced buns as well. The songs, though I've never heard any of them before, are all easy listening. I've nary seen more than one person in the shop and the stranger had such a quipped conversation with the barista man that even that disoriented me. If this place is more than a flight of fancy, I love it. If I have hallucinated the whole thing, I recommend you go to the same spot and do as I've done. I will (I think?) be back again soon. read more

Too slow. Waste of time and money. No parking. Left cappuccino there and went somewhere else instead. read more

Will never come back here again. I paid $11 for an avocado toast it was one tiny half of a square of bread with 2 tomato slices and 4 avocado slices on it. I wouldn't even feed that to a young child. It wasn't even a full piece of bread. The service was nauseatingly slow. It took 45 minutes for me to get my singular slice toast and cold brew. I spent WAY too long when I just wanted to grab a quick bite to eat before the beach. They were out of EVERYTHING. I wanted whole milk in my coffee and they were out of all milk except for skim. I then had to pay $0.75 more for soy milk because there were out of whole and 2%. They were also out of nitro cold brew and bacon. Is this not a coffee shop??? How do you not have whole milk. Ambiance was horrible because everyone in the shop was antsy waiting for their drinks. read more

Unless you want to support a self-important, entitled business owner who does not care about his employees or customers, do not go to this coffee shop! I visited BTC on a Sunday morning and the shop was very busy. There was only 1 barista working, Shane, who had to be a miracle worker, running around like a chicken without a head, while the owner Braeden relaxed on the couch mindlessly scrolling through Instagram. After several customers waited for their orders for 80 minutes, Braeden decided to make a public announcement to all the customers about how his scheduling projections didn't factor in the morning rush, rather than actually being apologetic and taking accountability. Feeling terrible for poor Shane, I then asked why Braeden couldn't step in to help his staff. He stated "I'm not a barista and do you think the CEO of McDonald's steps into the kitchen?!". Another customer then stated that the McDonald's CEO frequently steps into the kitchen to empathize with his staff - there was even a documentary on it. Braeden proceeded to say "that's cute". Then after he was tired of listening to frustrated customers, he walked out the door mid-conversation and did not return. Someone who is so entitled, has no desire to work and be a team player, and has zero regard for his employees or customers does not deserve to own a successful business. I urge all customers and investors to stay far away from this toxic human being who exploits his employees and is too good to even lift a finger. read more

I didn't eat, but I did see the Chef fix an appetizing wrap of Turkey! Nice place grab some lunch work/ connect on WiFi and snack! Come on in and You will see what I experience. Thank you read more

I came here after seeing them advertise on my Instagram feed for several months. I was...let down. I came on a Friday before a holiday that most people have off. It was dead which is a sad sign to me about a coffee shop. I got the maple latte iced and my coworker got a muffin. I wanted a chicken sandwich but I was informed there was nothing available but breakfast sandwiches despite the displayed lunch menu on the counter. The coffee was...meh. Sickly sweet and left a weird taste/coating. Plus $7 for a small iced latte I didn't even finish? No thanks. I didn't think the atmosphere was particularly relaxing/cute/welcoming and the bathroom was spray painted and felt like a frat house. I probably wouldn't be back. read more

Love the locality of this place and truly want to support local BUT coffee is higher priced than Starbucks. they nickel and dime you. $.50 for Vanilla, $1.00 to heat up cinnamon rolls. So 2 lattes and 2 Cinnamon rolls was $29.18. Disappointing cause I want to every business to succeed in Brigantine. read more

Great coffee with great service! Nice array of roast levels. And free pup cups! A definite stop on your morning walk to the beach.

Fantastic coffee in a convenient location and helpful but not too helpful service. This will become a regular stop!

7 dollars for an iced coffee that looks and taste like iced tea Prices do not justify quality of beans as this coffee was terrible read more

Great coffee, vibes and a short walk from the beautiful beach in Brigantine. Right by the surf shop.

Thrilled for a coffee house to open on the island! This cafe is cute, the decor is typical coffee house with a few high tops, several tables and bar seating. The baristas were knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. My friend and I both ordered lattes and they were delicious. The menu is a variety of coffee, espresso, chai, lattes, mochas and specialty drinks including a house red eye and affogato. They do have alternate milk options and a few bakery items available. This is place is 100% getting added to my regular routine, the coffee and the atmosphere are exactly what I was missing when I moved to the island. Added bonus: dog friendly. read more

It's a brand new coffee shop in Brigantine. We finally decided to try it this weekend. The inside is very nice. I like the decor and they have plenty of tables. They offer desserts from a local baker and they make few themselves. We ordered a latte. It was absolutely delicious!! The beans have incredible chocolaty aftertaste. The foam was great and it was the right temperature. They roast their own coffee. Everyone was very friendly. read more

Came in around 10AM on a Monday--the employee was doing her thing sitting down and felt like we were interrupting her the entire time we were there. We felt rushed on ordering...she asked what would we like before we even had the chance to look at the (super reflective) board/menu. Ended with Americano and a Mocha Latte. Didn't get any recommendations as the cashier/barista just stood quietly in front of us, which adds to the rushed feeling and awkwardness. Wasn't util after paying that I saw something special that I may have liked to try out. I tend to also buy a bag of beans when I visit a shop, but it was too expensive sitting around $18 average for a 12oz bag of beans. The drinks were pretty good otherwise. read more
