    Breakfast coffee to go
    Tom R.

    Crush and Grind crushes it from sunrise to sunset. Mornings here bring some of the best coffee on the boardwalk. Bold, flavorful, and worth the wait. We stopped in for breakfast coffee and the line was out the door, but it moved quickly, proof they've got their grind down perfectly. By afternoon and evening, the vibe shifts from coffee to craft, with beer, cider, and wine flowing in a laid-back, beachy atmosphere. Perfectly placed in the heart of the boardwalk and just steps from the sand, it's the ideal place to kick off your day or wind it down.

    Cold brew is amazing as is. So good it doesn't need any cream or sugar. Guy working is also a big chiller

    I was looking forward to trying out a local coffee spot in Carolina Beach, so stopped by Crush and Grind for a quick caffeine fix. I loved the mural outside and the reviews were great, so thought I'd be in for a decent experience. There were quite a few customers inside enjoying their drinks at about 2 PM, but there wasn't anybody at the counter serving customers or taking orders. I stood for several minutes hoping someone would come to the counter, but left...first time ever I've stood in line at a coffee place to order and nobody cared to take my order. I guess since it's slow season in Carolina Beach, they didn't feel the need to have attentive staff. It was all quite bizarre as it was several hours before closing time. Crush and Grind should close up shop after the summer if they don't want to attend to customers. I never thought I'd see the day, but after more than 450 Yelp reviews, this is my first one-star review for a coffee shop. Update - business owner responded quickly with an apology promising to do better, so respect them enough to bump up the score a star...mistakes happen.

    This cafe has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Which combined with their delicious coffee, made for a great experience. I tried their Seabee latte, which was an absolute treat. The combination of marshmallow, coconut, and honey created a delightful flavor that was both sweet and comforting. It's a must-try for anyone looking for a unique coffee experience. Another fantastic aspect of this coffee shop is that they are dog-friendly, making it a perfect spot for pet owners. Plus, their location near the boardwalk adds to the convenience and charm of this place. Crush and Grind Coffee Shop is a gem at Carolina Beach, offering a warm atmosphere, creative coffee options like the Seabee latte, and a pet-friendly environment. I highly recommend it to coffee enthusiasts and dog lovers alike.

    This shop was next to our hotel so we were able to stop in several times. The shop is perfect with a blend of searing, open space, outdoor seating (upstairs), small local vendor items and two coolers full of local microbrews, juices and teas. The barrista talked to us about what we like in a coffee and made suggestions. The Sea Bee was my "go to" all weekend. Silky, sweet, excellent coffee flavor. Great prices, atmosphere, customer service and drinks! Wish I was there today.

    Perfect spot for a coffee shop in CB. They have beer & wine too, so it becomes a social spot at any hour! It's a bit darker in here, so a nice break from the sun when it's needed. I had an iced chai with oat milk and vanilla, plus an iced vanilla latte (with a double shot!). It was $12, so about average! Both drinks were great. Not a ton of food options, but some nice looking baked goods up front. Would recommend!

    Loved getting my coffee and going upstairs to the outside sitting...to myself no less. Quite morning to watch the beach come alive.

    Coffee is good and great service. Drinks were cheap and they had a broad menu to pick from.
