Scout's Coffee Bar + Mercantile

Cute coffee shop, got the rose latte which wasn't to sweet and perfectly floral. The toast they make smells amazing unfortunately I did not order but will next time.

Have you ever had coffee (iced or hot) with lavender flavor? If not, you need to go here and have one. Their coffee is absolutely AMAZING as is all of their food from their pastries to their breakfast burritos. The atmosphere is very cozy and the staff is extremely friendly. If you haven't been here...GO!

A lovely old world retail space that fits a coffee house perfectly. Spacious and charming it's easy to spend time enjoying your beverage and some nosh and not feel rushed or packed in on top of other customers. The owner and staff are very friendly so be patient and don't expect to be rushed through your order either. It's a new-ish business and with that they have a true business plan. For example our order came to $14.00 for a Latte, a med coffee and two homemade gluten free brownies. The gluten free option was nice and also delicious although almond milk was not an option. 1/2 &1/2 or milk are always available. With all of that said it's worth the trip and if you've only driven by or heard great things it's now time you stopped in and made it your own.

I LOVE Scouts. I just moved to High Bridge a few months ago. After looking at my house and then wandering through town and finding Scouts it made High Bridge feel like home. The coffee and food are delicious and the atmosphere is great. I moved from the city and was sad to leave the artsy, progressive vibe of NYC. Scouts brings a bit of the bohemian, artsy feeling to our town, and also brings the neighborhood together. The staff and owners are also great people. I love it!!

My go-to coffee shop! Coffee, food, and vibes are immaculate!

Super cute coffee shop! Great atmosphere and food as well as cute merchandise.

At Scouts not only is their pricing extremely reasonable, but you will also find a comprehensive beverage selection. Their wide variety of teas and coffees, both cold and hot, will give you something new to try every time you walk through the door. Breakfast and lunch options are crafted with not only nutrition in mind, the presentation is remarkably tasteful as well. And don't even get me started on the baked goods... while you wait for your order you may find it hard to rest your eyes in any one place. As you take in the very organic, yet refined decor, you'll notice a variety of cards, mugs, creams, and other trinkets of the sort. Perfect for gifts, or maybe a little treat for yourself.
The cherry on top is the amicable staff. Sweet girls with swift service if youre on your way to work, yet capable conversationalists when your find yourself in a chatty mood.
I became a customer here about 3 weeks ago and find it quite hard to take my service elsewhere. Even when I'm out of the area.

My favorite coffee shop! Such a great atmosphere and the drinks and snacks are phenomenal. Not exactly like other coffee houses either. I’m not a coffee drinker but they have many fabulous non coffee options. I can attest to the coffee, though, and it’s super high quality! Friendly service, WiFi, and a stone’s throw from the Colombia Trail, Scout is worth a trip to High Bridge!

Fun little coffee shop in a small town an hour from NYC. Also offers Das’ Creamery ice cream.

Beautiful & chill are the two words that describe scout's the best. Right next to both highbridge station, and Columbia trail. This coffee shop is an excellent pit stop to recharge and take in the fresh air of hunterdon county.

It is also great if you want to go souvenir shopping if you are just making a quick stop on the station.
