Loved everything about this place. Its cute overall, staff was so friendly, and the coffee itself was delicious, I'm in love with the coconut mocha. Added bonus is that its on the boardwalk, literally steps away from the beach. Its adorable and has good coffee, just go already! read more

My daughter and I visited The Buoy during our vacation and it was great! Service was wonderful and drinks were tasty.

Overall, best coffee in cape may. Hands down!! Stayed 4 days and stopped everyday, even stopped here twice in one day. If that doesn't tell you how good we thought it was! Delicious coffee, best atmosphere and with being right on the beach it's the best coffee shop you'd want while traveling to the East Coast. Highly recommend trying out this place. read more

Incredible coffee spot right on the beach! I went back three times during my vacation! I loved my iced vanilla latte with oat milk. It's cute inside and they have a few seats, some retail, and they have some pastries for sale. They have a sister location across the street with more food options too. read more

One of my fave tea and coffee shops on the beach side for certain! Forget that big chain coffee shop's refreshers, there are better without all the weird chunk fruit! I love fruit, just not soggy at the bottom of my drink. We stopped in here after a pretty full morning. Well, actually we stopped in twice but what I wanted was something warm that morning so we wait until the afternoon to stop in for something colder after the sun was out. The art on the walls is beautiful! The service was great, not much of it in Cape May isn't. read more

My go to coffee spot during my vacation. Love that they use frozen coffee cubes! Right on the beach too which is super convenient

Great spot tucked off the side of the boardwalk next to the convention center. Very cute spot, matcha late with almond milk comes unsweetened and was very refreshing to have after morning yoga. Arnold Palmer was also very good and not too sweet. Super cute spot! read more

Top 3 coffee places ever and I drink coffee everywhere. Outstanding cortado and service.

Great place to grab an iced coffee and some over prices snacks on your way to the beach. The store front is cute, and the location is perfect. And the coffee was good. You can't really expect a good deal this close to the ocean. I highly recommend coming in for a coffee or tea but I'd personally eat elsewhere next time. read more

I had the best maple latte here! Cute little place and great location! Not a lot of seats but great vibes. read more

Newer addition to cape May, kinda hidden so make sure you look for the signs! Located in a beautiful walkway leading right to the beach! Small selection of baked goods, bagels, and breakfast items. They also have a cook to order menu. I tried the latte and quite enjoyed it. It only comes in one size unfortunately. read more

Have been here several times as a halfway point on my rollerblading course to pop in for an ice coffee and an Acail bowl. The shop had a great open aesthetic and is conveniently located steps from one of the best beaches in Cape May. A great option of you are looking for a quick bite or a grab and go option. I appreciate them having a lot of healthy options. read more

Points for speed and charm over strength. Lemme explain. I loved iced coffee. Drink it year round. Black and flavorful. And I like it from shops that have character. So I found this place like a moth to flame. Small, but clean and nice inside. Super friendly people working there. Great vibe. So it thought the coffee must be out of this world, right? Almost. Cold brew was a little weak, like ordinary Maxwell House iced coffee you get in average diners. And only one size. The 4 shots of iced espresso was excellent, however. Great flavor that melded well with the ice. So maybe up the octane on cold brew, and provide larger size cups for iced coffee fiends like me. read more

Found this place on a morning walk and it was amazing....coffee ice cubes in the cold brew and the Java boost smoothie and yogurt parfait were also great. Added bonus was when I asked for no granola in my parfait bc I cannot have gluten, the granola is gluten free! Will definitely be coming back when we return to Cape May! read more

Excellent and Yummy coffee! Really great service. Very dependable service and taste.

Service is a bit slow because there's not a lot of people work. If you don't want to wait go before 8am or after 10am. Definitely recommend it though, coffee and tea are really good. Muffins are great as well! read more

This little coffee shop is located right next to an entrance to Cape May beach. We came here because of the reviews on Yelp. We love good coffee and Buoy Coffee Shop lived up to the other Yelper's reviews. The service was quick and the coffee was fantastic. read more

Stopped by here for a cold brew with vanilla syrup and oatmilk. They also offer coffee ice cubes here for $1 more! The coffee was delicious! The location is perfect for any beach dweller or promenade walker! Service was quick and friendly! The only draw back is that my vanilla oatmilk cold brew with coffee ice cubes was almost $8! Definitely expensive I probably won't come here regularly but a fun vacation treat! read more

Very clean, reasonable prices and conveniently located to instant beach access. The young lady helping me was helpful and knowledgeable of the coffees origins/ types of brews. Come here in the morning the head to the beach after! read more
