Blue Cup Coffee

Pretty good bagel, egg and cheese with pork roll. But sorry, my ex-boyfriend made the best ones of my memory. With the Water Bagels. Top that and you’ll get 5 stars from me.

The place is good. I’m just suggesting that if they are going to make professional espresso please teach the baristas how to make the espresso and don’t limit to basic drinks. Like I asked for a cortado twice with different people and the staff didn’t know. It’s not about being pretentious- some people don’t want tons of milk in a latte and don’t want macchiato with only a dollop of foam. they are offering quality espresso partnered with professionals Turnstile roasters so I just suggest train the baristas.

Summary: great coffee, pastries, and design.

Coffee: I agree with the review by @KeenanBliss that the strength of the main brew is not as rich/strong as I typically prefer, but it has a surprisingly good flavor and I very much enjoyed it. Next time I will try the Redeye, which is coffee + espresso shot; another self-described coffee aficionado in my group tried that and said it was perfect.

Food: Crumb cake was excellent, coffee cake was very good, and the pork roll sandwich was tasty and nicely prepared.

Design: I commend the owners on the design / aesthetic of the storefront and the products - great to see more owners who "get" how important it is to create a cohesive, good experience. Everything down to the look and feel of the coffee cups was very well done and contributes to elevates the Boardwalk / town.

Prices: Finally, I thought the prices were reasonable (for the area), considering this is a more upscale offering all-around in terms of the product and the place. I left feeling happy with my purchase and plan to return.

Prices were very steep for the portion size of the food. Food quality was decent. Sandwiches were not accurately given.

Absolutely the best cup of coffee I have ever had on the boardwalk. I ordered a hot latte and it didn't come from powder in a push button machine. It was actual fresh ground espresso beans put thru an actual highend espresso maker.

Breakfast sandwich and iced mocha latte were delish. Fast and friendly service.

A shore favorite! Their lattes are expensive (similar to SBUX) but I love supporting small businesses, especially if their espresso rocks! The girls behind the counter are always friendly too.

Delicious and friendly staff.

Good coffee, the avocado toast is $8🤯 and dont forget to remember to tell them to toast your bagel or you get it cold...with butter. Gross. My bad.

Food was good, coffee was average. The place was cute and they had a lot of non dairy options.
