Scout's Coffee Bar + Mercantile

I was disappointed with the portion size of the oats. It seemed like there was only 3/4 cup of food in the bowl. I would have been ok with paying 10$ for a full bowl rather than 8$ for barely a cup.

Coffee was strong.
Good breakfast food options and cute store

Amazing nitro cold brew. Nice crisp bite to it but not bitter. Best with a bit of ice thrown in and served black. I got mine with oat milk (I think they use the barista blend) which kind of ruined the flavor. I’d recommend no milk!

Got a burrito here two which was also delicious.

The coffee shop itself is super cute and the parlor has immaculate vibes. Good place to work but the wifi is a bit slow so only come if you don’t need to do too many high-bandwidth activities on your laptop.

Baristas are also very welcoming and nice.

Perfect fuel stop mid way through 100 miles of mixed terrain cycling. Vegan sesame ginger peanut noodles were awesome and so was the lavender poppy cookie washed down with a cold brew.

Cute coffee shop with plenty of cool coffee/tea makers made in USA and Japan!

I went on a Sunday and it was super slow, not many desserts in there, but I ended up getting iced coffee only. They don't have splenda and you have to ask for any of the sugar packets. I'm happy that their iced coffee cups do not require straws.

They were near closing and offered us and other customera walking in, free pastries. That was pretty kind of them.

This is such a gem of a place!! The decor and ambiance is so pretty, such a great vibe, like a more authentic and beautiful local alternative to Starbucks. they sell some really cute items to peruse and they have the most delicious gluten free banana nut muffin! The girl serving us was so sweet and a pleasure to chat with

My favorite coffee in New Jersey. If you're in High Bridge, NJ you must get coffee, tea, and/or treat from here!

My first time here! I got the iced maple latte and lemon bar. The latte was so so good and I loved the strawless lid, but I do wish the lemon bar had more lemon. I would love to try some of their other food options next time! I also tried their lavender lemonade which I will be cravinggg for a while :)

Very disappointing! Not impressed with the “grab and go” food idea - who knows how long the food’s been in the cooler. I happen to like my food freshly-made. Call me picky 🤷🏼‍♀️. There’s no indication of “no table service” so I sat for a few minutes only to get up and inquire about it. Guess one has to be a LOCAL to know the scoop. When asked if I could have the oatmeal, I was abruptly informed that it’s served on the weekend, only 🤦🏻‍♀️. I found the staff to be curt and unprofessional. I wound up walking out because of how I was treated. In addition, it’s difficult to find parking in the area; when you do, make sure you turn your side view mirror in toward your car or you’re guaranteed to lose it! They should feel fortunate I gave them 2 stars at this point. Will not be returning.

Very cool spot to grab some fantastic espresso based drinks or delicious tea varieties. Nice sitting area and cool decor. A neat and historic town to go with it. Delicious baked goods as well.

It is a very nice coffee place. They are very friendly and the place itself is very cool. I love the old vibe in here. It is very European. The choice is a bit limited on the Viennoiserie and not of the best so hopefully there will be improvement there. Also I would recommend that they find a better coffee bean so that the experience will be magical. Still great effort. PS take a tour of the restrooms for the rustic feel and the funny pics on the wall.
