Such a cute place! Not a ton of seating but everything comes out pretty fast. The waffle is so good! Hot and sweet with a little cinnamon sugar taste! Good lattes and the bagel sandwiches were great too! We actually ate here twice on our little weekend getaway! Walk the pier while you're there too! read more

Ruby's Coffee House was one of our favorite stops on Oak Island! We ordered the house drip coffee, a chai tea, and a bacon, egg, and cheese croissant, and everything was fantastic. The coffee was fresh, the chai was flavorful, and the croissant was delicious and hit the spot for breakfast. However, we finished our drinks before we got our breakfast so that was disappointing. We arrived around 8:30 a.m., and while there was already a line, it grew quickly after we got there. The wait was definitely noticeable, but completely worth it. Parking can be a challenge, but that's pretty common everywhere on Oak Island, so we didn't hold that against them. What we especially appreciated was how family-friendly it felt. We had a baby with us, and the atmosphere was welcoming and accommodating for families with little ones. It made for an easy and enjoyable breakfast stop. Great food, great drinks, and a welcoming atmosphere. Just plan for a little extra time if you're visiting during the morning rush. We'd absolutely come back! read more

Awesome breakfast sandwiches, apple fitters and unique coffees. Stayed long enough for them to open to get another breakfast before driving back to PA. Super friendly too! read more

This place is cool. We have already made return visits here and we will definitely be back. The employees are really nice and helpful. They keep customers moving through with a smile. Our orders have all been correct. Our drinks have all been delicious. The vibe here fits with the beachfront location. They have murals on the walls featuring tropical vegetation. It feels like "happy vacation" was the theme. The place is clean. They have a 97.5 sanitation grade. They have a limited food menu. They sell honey, T-shirts, and some other merchandise items. You should definitely check this little spot out! read more

Nice coffee spot. Small but mighty. Parking lot can be a pain. Very close to the ocean which was nice. Waited a bit for my order. They were out of grits by the time I got up there. I ordered a few breakfast items and a coffee. Got my coffee first and then waited an additional 15 mins for my food which was a little annoying since I wanted to enjoy it all together. read more

Super cute cafe right on beach connected to the fishing pier and Koko Canbano restaurant. It's an aqua building. There's a parking lot but I am sure it can get busy. You can also access this from the beach! Super convenient. They do have indoor seating available. Super cute decor. The menu offers coffees, teas, lattes, etc (typical coffee shop drinks), as well as good options such as bagels, toasts, French toast, etc. There's also specialty drinks they create. Ordered raspberry white chocolate latte (yum) and an Americano. The Americano wasn't very strong, but was good. Great location and good drinks and good options. They even sell merchandise. Lovely local cafe to support. read more

Such a cute coffee shop right on the beach! I stayed on Oak Island for the weekend and ended up coming here both mornings with friends. It has a very casual vibe inside, and the breakfast sandwiches hit the spot. We ended up taking the coffee to go for a beach walk. (There is convenient access to the beach right outside Ruby's). Loved it! read more

Snicker's Latte! I don't think one can find something like this up here in the north east. Rich and light at the same time. Truly refreshing in the suffocating humidity facing us here in Oak Island. Wait was long enough to walk the furry pets but not too long for their discomfort. A popular Cafe among locals and vacationers alike. My kids came back here couple more times during our visit. read more

A new favorite coffee shop for me! Rubys is a hidden gem on the pier right behind koko cabana. I had the white chocolate raspberry latte and it was seriously the best coffee I've ever had! Met the owner as well who was super sweet and thanked us for coming in. read more

Busy place! There is a small area to eat in, but most people get their order for take out. The line on this spring break weekend was long, but every place on OKI had long lines today. Despite being busy the staff was friendly and the order was accurate. We had coffee and bagels. read more

This is the best coffee house on the island! My wife and I are regulars but I must say the service is spectacular! They use water processed decaf! The super nice barista knew I order decaf regularly (due to medical issues) and knew to ask when I missed it ordering. That's top notch service folks. My iced coffee was delicious. Best in town. The atmosphere is so much fun. Don't get your coffee anywhere else! Ruby's Is the Best!! read more

The actual shop is really cute & the employees are really nice. However I wasn't impressed with the food or drinks. My husband and I both got matchas that weren't the best & the egg & cheese sandwich was pretty bland. read more

Great experience! There is a parking lot with 2 hour free parking. They had tables inside but not many. They have an extensive coffee menu and lots of food! The food and coffee were both so good. They also have pastries that were amazing, not too sweet at all. I also thought the prices were very reasonable!!! I would return. read more

We are so excited to be back at Oak Island and one of the reasons is so we can visit Ruby's in the mornings. Our first morning here did not disappoint. We had two delicious lattes and breakfast bagel sandwiches. read more

This is a hot spot! Coffee is great, and it's super cute! everyone is so nice too!! i will be back!

Ruby's is a super cute coffee shop right on the waterfront by Oak Island Pier. We stopped in to grab a quick coffee before taking a walk down the pier and on the beach. We got a Honey Vanilla Latte and a Caramel Macchiato, both iced. They were good, but nothing remarkable. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. The prices are very reasonable for both the food and drinks, we didn't try any food but we will next time! read more

favorite coffee shop around! Food is made to order and bagels are from bagel dock express!

Their open faced croissant with goat cheese and blueberries is to die for. I would eat this every day if I could. And it's so affordable!

Small coffee shop located on the pier at Oak Island. Nice selection of both hot and cold drinks. Merchandise selection to choose from as well. I had a vanilla latte. Once I got out on the pier and tried I realized immediately it was lacking vanilla so I took it back inside. The issue was remedied and the drink then tasted amazing. read more

Absolutely loved this place! The location is unmatched; you can walk here on the beach and eat on the beach. The food and drinks are amazing! Love the amount of options and it seems everything my group of 4 got was excellent. The workers are very kind and helpful! read more

Tiny little coffee shop with a little bit of seating. Food was pretty good, but I think they are more geared towards their drinks.

Great coffee and food. Staff was friendly, and being right on the waterfront was a real plus. We really enjoyed our visit.

Such a cute place, moved quickly despite the crazy line! Seriously one of the best bagels I've ever had

The best beach breakfast! Fresh hot bagel sandwiches & excellent lattes. I loved that they had tons of syrups & more than one sugar free option. The SF mocha was great! My husband got the pb latte & loved it. read more

This place is cute! My husband and I stopped in to grab breakfast to go. I ordered a bacon, egg + cheese sandwich on a croissant with a chai and my husband ordered the goat cheese toast with a latte. The service, food and morning beverages were all great! Ruby's is worth checking out if you are visiting Oak Island. read more

They had me at Lavender Vanilla latte! Ruby's is the cutest little coffee shop located right by the pier on Oak Island. They have some really unique coffee drinks as well as tea and local homemade pastries. I did see several people ordering breakfast sandwiches that looked great including toast, bagels, croissants, etc. The overall vibe is right up my alley with lots of bright light, colors and plants filling the space. We did have to wait in a pretty long line for about 30 minutes on a Saturday morning over Labor Day weekend, which is to be expected. Grab a coffee and stroll the pier while you sip! I truly can't think of a better morning at the beach. read more

What a great little "hole in the wall". This place is AWESOME. Friendly Staff. Cute setting. Right on the Ocean (can't see it but they are on the backside of a building that is on the ocean). We were in Oak Island for a week and came here 3 times I believe. Coffee is great with a lot of options for every level of coffee consumer. They offer local items for purchase as well as their food and coffee. We actually stopped here for breakfast on our way out of town. I had a great Everything Bagel breakfast sandwich. Everyone enjoyed their food and coffee that day. A great place to grab a coffee and then walk the beach. We were there in November (Thanksgiving week) so it was perfect to grab a coffee and stroll the beach. It is definitely worth a stop if you are in the area. Just know that it is attached to the same building as KoKo Cabana and a Supply store selling fishing supplies and such. You won't regret stopping. read more

Great little place with a very limited food menu on the Oak Island pier. I had the bagel club sandwich and it was quite tasty. My companion enjoyed her bagel BLT. Parking is a hassle (the "new" OKI parking restrictions) but Ruby's will give you a voucher to cover one hour of parking on OKI. I did not try a coffee, but their latte menu was very comprehensive. Maybe next time! read more

Obsessed with the pistachio coconut iced latte! Highly recommend. So many independent coffee shops make their coffee too sweet or too black, but this was the perfect in between. So many options and varieties! Breakfast sandwiches were straight fwd and tasty. We typically like to switch up our spots during trips to OKI, but this is a must-return! read more
