BRICK: walking into California Cold Co. feels like stepping into a perfectly timed midday reset…read morewith buzzing energy, great music, and a crowd happily fueling up on caffeine. Leashed and friendly dogs are welcome inside as well as at the outdoor tables, making it an easy stop for you and your pup. Their craft drinks are thoughtfully made, with a mix of everyday favorites and creative seasonal specials, plus light bites to round out your visit. We loved spotting a couple of other dogs soaking up the outing with their families, always a good sign you have found a gem. They also have a location in Manalapan, so you have got options when the craving hits.

I had heard about California Cold Co. a couple of times and finally decided to try it out. I first…read morewent to the Brick location of California Cold Co. and ordered a matcha. They had a special matcha for a limited time called the Applejacks matcha, so I ordered that. I had them take off the white chocolate and do oat milk because I'm vegan. I absolutely loved it. It was so delicious and flavorful, and it was the best flavored matcha I had had in a long time. I do love regular, traditional matcha with no flavoring, so I'm not talking about that. I'm just talking about a flavored matcha that was so good. After a couple of weeks, I went to the Manalapan location and had the same matcha. While it was not as good as the Brick one, I didn't really hold that against them. Then a couple of weeks later, I went back to the Brick location and they told me they didn't have matcha because they ran out. They said their customers who really love matcha were not happy about it either, and that they didn't know when they were going to get it back in. That's why I took away one star. They are a business and should make an effort to always have matcha available. Matcha not being available one day is one thing, but not having it and not knowing when it's coming back is another thing. I just don't think that's acceptable. Besides that, this place is really good. Their drinks seem really creative. I've mostly only had the matcha because I love matcha. It also seems like a really nice place to sit and study, and it always seems clean. The day they didn't have the matcha, I got a chai tea instead and it wasn't that great, so I know not to get the chai again. Overall, I do like California Cold Co. a lot and I hope the whole matcha thing doesn't happen again. It seems like a really good, solid place.

This restaurant is highly recommended and they close at 10 pm most days, so if you're still out and about at a later time, this is definitely a good place to get some delicious food!

Each time we go we enjoy the food, service is always good. although we typically take-out, the establishment always appears clean. It's nice and bright and welcoming.

They no longer include chips with your meal (burrito, tacos etc) The chicken fingers comes with spicy sauce and when you ask to swap it for something else you can't. So you get the spicy stuff and have to pay $1.60 for a tiny ass cup of sauce. Btw they no longer have regular ranch, it's loaded with cilantro. There's bugs all over the place. Nowhere to sit. The salsa bar is no longer bowls with scooping spoons, it's in pourable containers that bartenders keep juice in. The salsa all separates and has no lid so you can't "shake" it up. The bowls were better because you could swirl it around. It's over priced anymore. Not gonna be going back any time soon.

We were greeted warmly and offered a sample of the signature dish, Merengon, which we accepted. There was a piece of merengue, which tasted like a sweet crumbly candy. It was topped with whipped creme and strawberries. A little sundae. What a tasty surprise! The lattes we ordered were made just right. We decided to bring home a guava cheese bread. Its a ring shaped pastry that serves the whole family. Four of us enjoyed a piece of that when we got home. Its like a danish, but more flake or firm outer layer, not spongy. We have plenty left over for coffee tomorrow. Cost for all that was about $14. I plan on returning to try the rice pudding and other Columbian desserts. The decor is simple; several small tables and chairs. A place to share dessert with a friend or your sweetie.
