    Second wave is amazingly good! Real cozy vibes and friendly staff. The Iced Caramel latte is my favorite here.

    This cozy cafe in Berlin is certainly worth the 10-20 min drive from Ocean City. The staff is super friendly and their food and drinks are delicious. I got their summer special banana latte and my wife got the blueberry one. I have to tell you, after I took my first sip, I felt like I was eating banana bread in latte form. They nailed it and I believe it all starts with their homemade banana syrup. Yes I said homemade banana syrup!!! It was on point! My wife loved her blueberry latte! As for the croissants, my kids devoured them and I was very lucky to sneak a bite from them. I will certainly be going back the next time I visit Berlin!

    Americano and Latte! Delicious!

    We're heading to Virginia to visit family and needed some afternoon coffee to make the ride bearable. I found 2nd Wave on Yelp and knew it was the place to stop. First impression, Berlin, MD is beyond cute! Perfect quaint village feel, only 15 minutes from the beach. I bet this area is popular. First impression of 2nd Wave, more of the same, absolutely fits in with the aesthetic. Clean, bright, and modern. Really nice lady working behind the counter, still pleasant at the end of a long shift. Really nice seating area, good clean bathroom. All that is good but the most important test was the coffee. My wife loved her latte and I found the Americano to be perfect! They use a high quality espresso machine. The coffee smells amazing. It was a truly smooth cup of coffee, great experience. Would be glad to live nearby and happy to stop the next time we're passing through!

    Tried this place on a stop in Berlin from the beach on a rainy day. I can see why the ratings on this place are so great. The coffee combinations we tried were phenomenal. I have never liked a seasonal latte so much! The pastries are also good. We asked where they are from and they said all over local. I will be going back and always trying something new.

    Such a cute spot. Loved the vibe when I walked in! Friendly and helpful staff! Tried an iced lavender latte with almond milk ! Yummm we also tried these neat chips called My Dad's Chips that are Sriracha jalapeño flavored. :) Would definitely swing back around the next time I'm in Berlin.

    Matcha w/ vanilla

    Cute place and had the best Matcha in town!! The matcha comes unsweetened so if you like it sweetened ask for a pump of vanilla. The vanilla latte was also really good!

    Eggnog coffee

    Super cute coffee place near Ocean City, MD! It's in the heart of Berlin with a fun local coffee house vibe. Loved the holiday drinks - highly recommend the Eggnog Latte.

    Had one of their holiday specials (eggnog latte). Started my morning off in a Christmas fashion. Love the location. Not just a grab and go place but a nice spot to enjoy the coffee as well. The barista was very friendly and warmed up my muffin for me.

It is a little off the main road and it feels like a hidden gem. The girls working behind the counter were friendly and ready to answer our questions about the par baked frozen breads. My husband was very excited to get focaccia for baking at our beach condo. My kids each got a s'mores bomb. It was something of a cake pop, but tasted like it was maybe made with donut?! It was incredibly delicious. I did not try the coffee, but at the least the baked goods live up to the name, baked.

Only three flavors to choose from. White powder and the cinnamon powder are the two best flavors and Dunkin doesn't even carry them anymore. Luckily grocery stores do. I placed my order which was fine. I was going to get some ice water but noticed they were charging me $.59 for it so I canceled that. They didn't tell me they were going to charge for it. I just happened to see it. When you're spending $15 on some donuts, they can spare a cup and some ice water. Then I stood around waiting for my order. There was very little direction. They didn't take my name or call a name or anything. I saw another guy go up and pick up some things and I saw a box of donuts sitting there. I walked up and asked the guy if they were mine who was working and he said he had no idea. So I just opened the box and looked and that was my donuts and I took them and left. With eight people working, they should be able to figure that out a little better. I would not describe the place as clean, but I would not describe it as dirty either. It looked like it had a recent Remodel.

Because of that, we respectfully asked about getting a refund. The staff told us only a manager could approve refunds, but the manager wasn't there at the time. No alternative solution was offered -- not a replacement meal, store credit, or any way to help resolve the situation. Since this is a family-owned restaurant it left us feeling stuck and unheard as customers. I understand policies exist, but spending that much money and leaving without being able to eat the food or get help addressing the issue was very frustrating. I hope management can improve how situations like this are handled so other customers don't have the same experience.
