Ostara's is always a 5 star experience!! I've been a big fan of the Clue drink specials. I ordered a Pistachio & White Chocolate Matcha. I love almost every syrup and flavor choice they have so it's hard to narrow it down. I also ordered Avocado Toast and added Bacon. Very good idea and highly recommended. The baristas and staff are always great and really make the experience! Food and drinks are always on point. I love all of the local art work & products for sale. As well as the bookstore! read more

Absolutely a 10/10 -- would 100% recommend visiting if you're in the area. I love it when TikTok gives me legitimately good recommendations, and Ostara hit it out of the park completely. The coffee ice cubes are genius and their brew is genuinely so smooth and not bitter at all. I'm typically someone who drinks my coffee black but with some sugar to undercut that bitterness and it wasn't necessary at all with Ostara's. Their breakfast sandwiches are also another 10/10 and were by themselves absolutely worth the wait in line. read more

This is one of my favorite coffee spots in cape May, I love getting an iced coffee with their coffee ice cubes. They have some unique and fun coffee/drink options and they have solid bagels. They even have a good selection of books! read more

Finally managed to visit this coffee shop while they were open! This is a very cute little coffee shop, with some seating and a lovely book selection to peruse while waiting for your drinks and food. They are insanely fast at making the food and drinks! I think I waited about 3 minutes for my drink, and about 5 more for my bagel. I got the bagel toasted, so it probably would have taken even less time if it wasn't toasted. I got their frozen hot chocolate, because I need a sweet pick me up, but didn't want to risk coffee. The frozen hot chocolate was very tasty, and they even have options to have it made with non-dairy milk. The bagel was fresh, and tasted great. The vegan cream cheese they have is very obviously coconut based and tasted heavily of coconut, but that was on me for not asking what vegan cream cheese brand they use. (I'm pretty sure it was Violife, judging from the taste) I also got a muffin and crumb cake, and they both were very fresh! The crumb cake was delicious, and very much worth the $3.50 I paid for it. The prices of everything they offer are actually pretty decent! I also really enjoyed that they have a fully customizable sandwich menu. The menus are very large and easy to read, even across the room. The girl who took my order was so sweet and helpful! If I'm back in the area before their 2PM closing time, I will totally come back for a quick pick me up! read more

First thing is the online ordering- a must for the summer months. I love this option and wish all the coffee shops in cape May would consider adding it. The staff are nice and helpful. The drinks are top tier - some of the best in town. And very creative special drinks too. The food is average cafe food- the bakery items are where they shine. Don't plan to work or hang out here because it can be very busy all year long. read more

Can only comment regarding iced tea, did not try other items. Atmosphere is cute. Ordered Black Iced Tea and tasted strongly of coffee, must have been brewed through the coffee maker. Dislike coffee, so deal breaker for me and had to dispose of. read more

Very chill vibes, nice people, LGBTQ ‍ friendly and definitely a favorite with the locals who all seemed to know each other. It's also great to work for a bit (free WiFi but they close on the early side). And there's shopping too! It's exactly the kind of spot I love to support. read more

When visiting Cape May with the family, this is my go to for breakfast and coffee in the morning. Coffee cubes in a dirty iced chai tea latte...amazing. Same with the Pork Roll (Taylor Ham in my dialect) egg and cheddar on a bagel. Wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

Perfect little breakfast nook with super friendly staff. Looks like it's also part book store, jewelry and even some candles. Great breakfast sandwich, skip the fast food! read more

Sandwiches are all made to order. The sesame bagel was fresh and easy to bite through. The cold brew coffee has a great flavor. You can even get ice cubes made from the cold brew coffee so you don't wind up with a watered down coffee. It was a fantastic breakfast at a very reasonable price. read more

A cute local coffee shop that is a hidden gem near West Cape May. I stumbled upon this place because my parents found it while visiting. Ever since they found this coffee shop, I have been going faithfully. From the iced coffee drinks to the customer service , this coffee shop goes above and beyond to ensure you're satisfied. I order the vanilla lavender iced coffee with iced cubes each time. Once you find a go to drink, it's hard to switch it up. Each time I order my favorite drink, it is never a disappoint. I also like the coffee cubes that are an option for iced coffees. The location is easy to find. The decor of art work inside the business is unique. They also have a kitchen where you can order food. I have yet to try it out. Also, they have several things for sale including earrings, paintings, and books. read more

This place is an unexpected gem! My family stayed the weekend in cape may and needed to grab a quick coffee and breakfast before our drive home on Sunday. I did a quick Google search and found this place close to us. You drive up and there's cute tables out front and the doors were open, inviting you inside. It's not the cutest thing you've ever seen inside, but it feels very community driven and a chill place to have a coffee. I got a caramel iced latte with the coffee iced cubes and it's one of the best I've had in awhile. Good beans makes a huge difference, and whoever their roaster is, is doing a great job! We also got some breakfast sandwiches which were good as well. Nothing spectacular but a nice option when you're looking for a quick bite in the morning. It was exactly what we needed before we drove home. If I lived near this place or if I ever visit cape may again, this will definitely be a place I stop into! read more

Great lbgq friendly coffee shoppe of the beaten path with a real coffee shop vibe. The coffee was delicious the food was good. There is plenty of parking and the service was friendly. Worth the bike ride or drive if you love trying different coffee places. read more

This is my favorite spot in Cape May. The coffee is delicious, bagel sandwiches are excellent (and affordable compared to the rest of the places around), and the staff is warm and friendly. There is not much seating inside so it is more of a to-go place. The decor and vibes are fun. LGBT friendly for sure. read more

A gem of a coffee shop. The owners keep things welcoming and fun, with specialty drinks that challenge and stimulate the taste buds. Ordered a "I'll Never Let Go Jack", a horchata cold brew with rice milk, that was delicious. The place draws a healthy crowd on Summer mornings, but you never wait too long for your drinks. read more

First time visiting this year on our recent trip to Cape May. Very cute space featuring the wares of local artists, some seating and coffee bar. I enjoyed my iced dirty chai. Employees were friendly and efficient. I didn't try any of the baked items this year but would return on a future trip! They also have a parking lot read more

Really solid coffee house with lovely tea offerings and drinks, both hot and cold. It has a cool and quirky sort of bohemian vibe that is very inviting. Lots of interesting books and chotchkies adorn the inside. I very much enjoyed the oat milk latte and hubby had the matcha latte. The London fog sounded and looked amazing. It's a little off the main touristy area of cape may but that's precisely what makes this place an absolute go-to! read more

I wanted so much for this place to be great but it really felt short for me. The sandwich was not great and there was enough butter on there to kill an elephant which made it nearly inedible. The croissant I got was under cooked and the bacon was near raw in spots as well. Their prices were very inflated too especially for their location out of the main downtown tourist area. The staff were friendly and nice and the place was cute but a lack of a bathroom and places to sit were other strikes against them unfortunately. I would probably not come back to be honest. Hope others have better luck. read more

Ostara's an amazing little spot to grab a coffee! They also have great pastries as well and service is super friendly. They are located a bit off the main areas but they have a dedicated parking spaces and even have a few tables and chairs set up outside to sit and enjoy the weather. read more

Ostara's Coffee House - Large latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - West Cape May, New Jersey

A hidden gem. There are a lot of coffee shops that microwave their eggs so purposely sought out a location that has a grill. This small coffee shop is such a cool spot. Kat's grill is open from 8-11am Sundays and has top notch egg sandwiches. Bagels and english muffins - no rolls. The bagels are not overwhelmingly large making them great for breakfast sandwiches. Shop has a book club which is a fun idea and a bunch of great books from Kierkegaard to bestsellers on Oprahs book club. It also has a take a book leave a book section. It is outside of downtown Cape May but worth the drive/long walk. Also next to Chez Michel which I've heard good things about. Def recommend. read more

AMAZING! I don't know how long that this place has been in business but I am so upset that I just discovered it last weekend. I had been traipsing all the way from Cape May Point to the Wawa near the marina for coffee - that will never happen again (unless it is before 7:30 AM when they open) This coffee was phenomenal! I love that they use frozen coffee cubes in the ice coffee. brilliant! The store was so cute and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I loved all of the cute artistic items. As a bonus there is a WONDERFUL French bakery (Chez Michael) next door. I am liking supporting businesses in West Cape May. read more

Ostara's Coffee House - Coffee on the patio - Coffee & Tea Near Me - West Cape May, New Jersey

First I'd like to thank the owner for participating in the Exit Zero discount card deck because that's how I came across this GEM of a cafe! The coffee is so SMOOTH and so GOOD! They have authentic bagels - IYKYK - it's AFFORDABLE and it is the quaintest place to be in! I'll definitely be a returning customer!! read more

It was all about the coffee everywhere I went in Cape May. I had my sights on doing Afternoon Tea at a local Inn- but for our short weekend- it wasn't in the cards. And the Chai I either got from other coffee shops didn't do anything for me and tasted artificial- but glad I found Ostara's in West Cape May with a quick search. Really unique and digging Ostara's style. Sofa chairs on your left, love seats and small coffee table on your right. We came across someone playing the guitar and singing some folksy tunes the morning we were there. We only came for Beverages to start our morning and head out of Cape May. Service was pleasant the short time we were there. As a Starbucks fan, my husband decided on an Iced Americano and said it was really good. I settled on a Lavender Chai- that was freaking unbelievable!!! The only downside is the weak ventilation system and smelled like food and bacon on my way out. Other than that, I like Ostara's progressive agenda and how they're thriving in their community. It's a lovely and funky place- and impressed me a whole lot. They've actually set themselves totally apart from the Victorian-style cafes you see in touristy Cape May. Simply the best Chai I've tasted in this town. Ostara's style plus their Chai- is enough to keep me coming back for more. read more

Cute, mellow, and non-pretentious! The coffee was delightful, and the service was friendly. They had some creative specialty drinks named after ladies from SNL, which I appreciated. I had the Kristin Wiig - a churro iced latte (with oat milk) that lived up to its name and wasn't overly sweet. It was the best flavored espresso drink I've had in a very long time. Beyond the specialty menu, they had a long list of basic coffee/tea/hot chocolate options. Will be back! read more

I absolutely love Ostara's! I am new to town from the Pacific Northwest so I was delighted to know they use an Oregon roast which is why their coffee is so good! They have a great variety and always fast and quick service. All of the staff is wonderful and the food from the kitchen is fantastic!! I love that they have so many local artist work out for display and for purchase. I just found out they have a book club and now I'm looking forward to joining along! read more
