Rook Coffee

LOVE Rook. If you love coffee and supporting small businesses, this is the place for you. Mobile ordering available. Tons of cool merch available (can also mobile order) and a small selection of pastries, besides all the excellent coffee drinks. All time favorites/recommendations: s’mores, mocha mint, and gingerbread. The flavored iced teas in the summer are also amazing. This location is always clean, speedy with service and fairly friendly! (Bathroom for customers also available.)

Still the best coffee I've had. I try every place that anyone recommends because I am a coffee junkie. I've heard "this place is better than Rook so many times, you have to try it." I still haven't found a place to dethrone the champs! No one has compared in NJ and elseware.

One of the better local coffee options while out and the pricing is pretty fair. The quality is sometimes hit or miss with the hot coffees sometimes being a bit weak on the strength. I usually stop here when traveling down Route 9 and have been here a few dozen times.

We had tried their banana toffee cold brew the other day and went back to get more recently as it was a nice treat for this warmer weather we've been having. I'm not fond of plain ice in cold drinks as the watered-down effect takes away from the experience if you don't drink it right away. Some coffee places I've seen use coffee ice instead of plain ice, which is not a bad compromise but does involve more prep work.

My girlfriend requested a little ice and I asked for no ice at all. When we got our drinks, it seemed that they ran out of their larger cold drink cups because my girlfriends cup was maybe 70% full and my cup was barely more than halfway full. I was visibly confused at first. We paid over $11 for these two drinks and felt a bit cheated.

There was no explanation while ordering or when fulfilling the order about the ice modification, cup size substitution, or level of the drink pour.

I understand that portion control and measuring is important for consistency and quality but the staff should explain the effect of a request such as no ice. Something along the lines of "We can use little or no ice but the specialty cold brew drinks we prepare will use the same amount of coffee and flavorings as we measure it out per size/order so the cup won't look as full but you're getting the same amount of ingredients just without the ice, it will taste stronger, and it will not be as cold. Is that okay?"

The lack of any explanation while placing a half empty cup on the counter was not a great experience.

Either properly explain the consequences of certain drink modifications to all customers while ordering or backfill the cup with the base product eg. cold brew—and keep the flavoring measurement the same while either explaining or giving the customer the option if they wanted to fill the cup with more cold brew or leave the ratio as is.

First time having Rook long time Starbucks patron. It was excellent will definitely come across the bridge just for the coffee, very nice staff.

Another great Room coffee. I usually go in for the cold brew Louisiana style but I started to move to the hot coffee since it's winter. I've been doing my own tour of the coffee world and it's nice to try something new every day. So far my favorite is the Guatamala blend. Clean store, friendly staff and best of all text ordering.

The cold brews are amazing and the service is quick. We love to try out the rotating cold brew flavors

im not sure what the hype is the s'mores cold brew literally tastes like a bitter iced coffee with a bad after taste...there are apparently graham cracker pieces in it. where is this? there was nothing in the drink or at the bottom.

Great coffee, friendly service, no place to sit, just get your coffee and go. Their system is fine at most times but gets overwhelmed at very busy times. But the coffee is worth any inconvenience.

I always order a cold brew, glad they finally got oat milk! Nice variety of seasonal drinks, something for everyone. Cute pin options if you're a collector.

Really good coffee, but don't expect to sit down and relax because there's no tables.
