    Fiesta Scramble Bowl
    Matt G.

    After a poor experience in their Metuchen location, I was hesitant to give this location a try until I was convinced by my family. We wanted somewhere nearby to go for Brunch by the shore on Easter morning and Hatch 44 fit the bill. Inside we were pleasantly surprised to find there was no wait and the menu had a wide variety of options available. The menu, was entirely digital, but they had an iPad available as well in case you couldn't scan the QR code for whatever reason. One section of the menu is very strict about not allowing substitutions. In fact that was the entire reason I had such a poor experience at the other location is the server there had refused all alterations of the menu, to the point where they wouldn't even serve me scrambled eggs. I'm happy to say here, that level of strict control was absent as there was no issue in substituting the jalapenos in my Fiesta Scramble Bowl with spinach. The bowl itself was full of flavor, with the cheese chorizo and pico all complimenting each other beautifully. Additionally it was the perfect sized portion and I left quite satisfied. I did have a glass of fresh squeezed OJ on the side, but something about it tasted.. off. Not sure if it was actually fresh squeezed or a bad batch of oranges, but it did cause me to pause. Overall, it was a great experience, but be aware that the seasonal specials cannot have modifications!

    Came in for brunch with a party of about 8 to 10 people. The staff was extremely accommodating and we were very thankful for that. We were also happy to be able to bring in our own Prosecco to enjoy mimosas. My polenta and shrimp meal was out of this world! I'm still thinking about it today. I would definitely recommend for anyone interested in visiting Hatch 44.

    Modern looking place, our server was very helpful and made solid recommendations. I got the lox benedict, and my husband got the scramble fiesta bowl with chorizo. Both were extremely tasty and very filling. Would definitely come back again (and next time I'm getting the fiesta bowl!)

    I've been here three seperate times now and have consistently gotten great service, amazing food, and a lovely ambiance to eat in. I love coming here for brunch with my friends and having nice aesthetics. Highly recommend!

    Oat milk latte

    Excellent experience- went early on a Saturday and had the place to ourselves for a little while. Server was friendly and clearly knowledgeable about the food which made it easy to accommodate dietary needs. They do have gluten free toast available and also nondairy milk for their coffee. It's a small cafe style space, but could probably accommodate a group by pushing tables together. Accessible with no steps and bathroom is also accessible.

    Pumpkin Pie Latte

    This cafe is super cute. Really good espresso & specialty coffees. Cute decor, instagram-able food and good service. Pumpkin pie latte: really good, creamy, and sweet. Birria omlet: a bit salty but hardy and the salad it came with paired nicely as it was fresh. I would come back if I were in the area again.

    I visited the Metuchen location a couple of times before and was finally able to get to Bradley Beach on a Sunday morning. We were able to be seated right away and the food was delicious! Our server, Tina, was amazing! She checked up on us often and made sure we had everything we needed. I ordered their caesar salad and fries which hit the spot. Along with their matcha spritz which was light and refreshing. Of course I had to try my friends drinks too. The Teddy Latte was so cute with the teddy grahams on top and my friend Oooh Bae latte was my favorite it was the perfect combination of coffee and ube. Our waitress recommended it too! If you want something sweet, get the tres leches pancakes it literally tasted like cake. Will be back!

    This is the toast.

    We went for lunch because of all the hype. First the table we sat at was sticky we had to ask the waiter to bring spray to clean it. The restaurant was very noisy with babies screaming and crying. One patron was changing her child's diaper at the table, gross. She was throwing the wipes on the floor. The Spicy Chicken Sandwich was okay not exceptional. My sister and Mother had eggs, bacon, potatoes and toast. The potatoes were supposed to have peppers and onions there were none. Maybe they used granulated not real peppered and onions. They gave one tiny piece of toast for two eggs and they forgot to bring the bread. By the time they received the toast they were almost finished with their eggs. Very disappointing for the price.

    My first time at this location. The one in Metuchen. Ordered the crema de maiz. It's more tasty and flavorful. The s'mores latte was divine. The food was great. We were attended and the person was quick in taking the order and picking them up.

    Fried Cheese Empanada
    Lace D.

    The is a very cute place. The service was great, she was very attentive for a large group and the meals did not take long to arrive. The decor was bright and beachy. I had the cheese empanada and grilled brirra cheese. Both were delicious, I had a great time

    Birria Grilled Cheese Please
    Kristen L.

    Service was great. We had Taylor! She was very attentive. It was a party of 9 for a bachelorette brunch. The food was so delicious. And the inside is so nice. Very clean. No complaints at all. Definitely will be back. I got the grilled cheese birria. Definitely recommend!

    Adorable ambiance, lovely service, great food, and excellent coffee... definitely come here! I came with my parents and brother today and will be returning. I had the ooh bae latte which was so so yummy! I also had the mexi avo toast which was so fresh and flavorful and full of a great mix of textures and sweet/bitter/creamy/rich ingredients. I also tasted the sausage off if my brother's plate and it was some of the best breakfast sausage I've had.

    Decent little spot and close to the train. Often take the train down to see the parents and stop somewhere for a bite before or after. I'll keep Hatch on the list...

    The Birria Grilled Cheese was incredible. Best birria meat I've ever had. I'm still thinking about their hot chocolate as well.

    Ridiculous wait time. Lack of communication, poor waiter/ess service. While food is good not worth all the drama on weekend wait times

    Drove 1.5 hrs and walked in just past 4pm lunch on a Saturday afternoon. While waited for 5pm…read moredinner, went for a walk in this beautiful town Avon-by-the -Sea. I would imagine reservations are a must during summer months. Was able to be seated without one at 5pm. Wonderful healthy options. Ordered the Vegetable Curry Bowl- 23 with Pasture Raised Chicken- 30. Was amazing. My wife had the Cavé Classic Chicken Veggie Soup- 10. Also very very good. All organic, farm picked & raised & all gluten free. Prices were very reasonable. Was able to park right in front of establishment. It seems menus constantly change. With amazing options throughout the year. Can't wait to try something on the lunch menu. Kudos to the chef.

    Visited Cave Bistro off the recommendation of a friend, and also DDD (iykyk)…read more I've frequented many DDD Restaurant's in the past, and they always seem to be very crowded. So just to be safe, I did make a reservation right when the restaurant opened. Seems to say I played it a bit too safe, I was the only one i there for the first 20-min.! In any case, then dining area was very bright and open, and I was seated near the window, which I enjoyed. I tried three foods, appetizer-entree-dessert, here's the breakdown: 1) Appetizer: Pan Roasted Achiote Octopus ($22) which has Shaved Pickled Carrots & Onions, Chermoula. For 1 person, this was quite substantial and a delicious start to the meal. The octopus wasn't tough, it was cooked perfectly, with a nice char-grilled flavour. Paired up with the accoutrements, it was a 10/10 way to begin my meal! 2) Entree: Grass-Fed Beef-Roasted Marrow Burger ($26) which has Raclette Cheese, Caramelized Onion-Tomato Jam, Fresh Baked Gluten Free Brioche Bun, & Beef Tallow Fries. Why 4-stars? Because of this item. The day I arrived the restaurant was trying their new "Baked Gluten-Free Brioche" on me, apparently I was one of the first --- the bread was dry AF, lol! I loved the burger --- the marrow taste, the raclette cheese --- I sing their praises, but wrong day to test out the "test bread"! It ended up on a Yelp Review. Hopefully the bread-recipe has been improved on after this review. PS: The onion-tomato jam perfectly pairs with the richness of the marrow burger. 3) Lastly, I ordered for dessert the bread pudding. They don't put their desserts on the menu, but if you ask the server they will let you know what the restaurant has for the day. I believe it's seasonal as well. It was average at best, good ---- but didn't stand-out. Overall, I'd totally recommend a stop-by if you're in the area! It's always awesome visiting these sites features on DDD, and tasting for yourself the hype behind their food!

We had the Blueberry Pancakes and Veggie Omelette. The pancakes came and I was a little surprised as they weren't 'puffy and fluffy'. I make pancakes once a week and always strive for a fluffy pancake. However, there was no difference in the taste! These blueberry pancakes were delicious! I also asked for the 'pure maple syrup' which was an additional charge. We also shared the Veggie Omelette; what an amazing omelette it was! It was as fluffy an omelette as I've ever had, it was full of peppers, onions, tomatoes, spinach and cheese! It was excellent!
