Scrambled eggs from the pup menu
Masha M.

Super cute stop, staff is so nice. Loved that they are dog friendly, loved the fact that the cafe is at the actual station stop. Food was good, they even have a pup menu now.

Rye toast with just the right amount of butter. Spicy home-fries, bacon, and scrambled eggs.
Mike C.

This is a wonderful little spot. Great seating outside and cozy inside. Service was excellent. The food was delicious. I enjoyed a scrambled eggs, rye toast, spicy home fries and bacon. All of it was tasty especially the spicy home fries. The crumb cake for desert was tasty as well. First time, anyone has offered to heat up the crumb cake. This was a nice touch. I highly recommend this fine establishment and encourage you to try it out for yourself.

Big waffle egg sandwich yum

Love the little breakfast stop at the Bradley train station. Outdoors is adjacent to the parking lot but still a sunny and pleasant experience. Food is imaginative without being unapproachable. Service is genuine and the chef owner checks in the patrons and she is a lovely personality. They allow dogs outside.

Real Baileys Irish Cream that they use for Baileys French Toast!

I discovered this cute and charming place this morning while attending the craft show at the park in Bradley Beach. I had no idea this was there. It was packed outside so I sat inside. The menu was awesome and a little different then the usual. I ended up ordering the Sunshine sandwich. It exceeded my expection! It was a big croissant sandwich! I can taste every layer from the Swiss cheese to the bacon, avocado and finally the eggs. Delicious and filling! Next time I have to try the Bailey's Irish Cream French Toast. They use real Irish Cream, YUM!! There was also many flavored sconces to choose from, so I have try that also next time. I thought the staff was friendly and attentive and I also got to meet the owner!

Ummmm HELLO! - this place is amazing!!!! herbs and spices that will blow your mind. The service was spectacular - the food - AMAZZINGGG- even the music was perfect. Everything about this. I cannot wait to go back!

Fritatta

Bad service, I sorry. The food is beautiful, good job chef. My fritata was perfect!!! They should pay more attention with the service. I 'll come back, And I hope I could have a better service next time.

What a cute, campy spot to eat breakfast: at the Bradley Beach RR station. This brick building has character. Rosa, my server, is very personable. This hidden gem has been here 21 yrs. CYI? Anyway I ordered the Sunshine Sandwich, and did it shine. The Jersey tomatoes are fabulous this time of year, and complements to the chef who prepared this with Swiss cheese, avocado, bacon, and egg on a croissant. Try it. You'll marvel at this. I dined alfresco but there are also tables within. The decor is very quaint and view my pix.

A signature menu item the "Sunshine Sandwich" . so gooooooopd.

See all

Stopped here for lunch during our first trip to Belmar, NJ and did not regret it! The menu is small…read morebut the flavors are huge! I ordered a Shrimp Po' Boy and it was by far the best Po'Boy I have had outside of New Orleans, and might have even been better than the one I had there too. My daughter ordered the Fish and Chips, which she loved despite it being her first time trying it. The interior has that "hole in the wall" vibe with just a few tables and a few stools at the counter. The food is being made just feet away from wear you're sitting and it creates a homey vibe. The locals seem to love the place as several stopped in to either eat or chat with the two women working. I do believe they have outdoor seating at picnic tables. Overall, this place is an absolute gem and i'll definitely be back when we return to Belmar, NJ.

It's cash only or Venmo, which I find its pretty normal for smaller local spots. The thing about this location was that it reminded me of Maine, the walls are painted this beautifully brilliant blue with nautical inspired decor. My favorite was the fishies above a fishing boat, which I had to take a snap of. I ordered 3 eggs over medium, with rye, and a side of bacon. The eggs were still a bit too runny, but its a standard breakfast. I want to go back and to sit there because the staff were super nice. If I lived closer then I'd prolly be here all the time. I saw a reviewer complain about the sign showing open, but they weren't. Honestly businesses making that mistake all the time, but to point it out is just whatever. Highly recommend stopping by here early because I have a feeling they're super busy with the locals.

The food was delicious from a very creative menu. Loved the music. The reason I rated 3-stars is because I was really looking forward to visiting for quite some time. It's a 30-minute drive and I visited on a Sunday at 1pm. They close at 3pm. The first thing I asked for was the French toast. They stated that they were out of French toast. Next I asked for Lobster Benedict. They ran out of lobster. The lobster, I can understand. It's seafood. You want it to be fresh and also I think it was a special that day. But how does a brunch restaurant run out of French Toast on the busiest brunch day of the week and you have 2 hours of service left? Not a good impression at all and I was very disappointed. If I wasn't so hungry, I would have walked out. I settled for the Liam's Favorite pancakes which was good and very filling, but I just wasn't in the mood for pancakes. Seasoned potatoes were good. Drinks were also good. Had the Dulce de Leche Cafe. Also this place is BYOB if you want to bring a bottle for mimosas. I would return here, but only if I am conveniently in the area.

Really great coffee! As soon as you step through the door, you're gonna love this place, charming, decorated beautifully in a very warm feeling inside. We came in to get a coffee to warm up on a cooler day and found ourselves ordering gelato and even a salad for lunch. The food here is really fresh! They really know how to make their coffees and tease as well. They have a really nice assortment of snacks and food. You can order while you're here. Very highly recommended if looking for a snack, a meal or a perfect cup of coffee while walking around downtown Asbury Park.

You know it's good when I forget to take pictures of the experience. We stopped here before a show…read moreat House of Independents and it was absolutely perfect. Delicious cocktails on their menu and plenty to choose from. Food was flavorful, warm, and fantastic. We plan on going here anytime we have a show now. Note: food ended at 6pm on a Friday. It says on one of their signs "late night bites" but they might've done away with that. I got the tomato & mozzarella panini ($14.) The bread has rosemary baked into it. It was easy to eat - not "too large" or hard bread that roughs up the roof of your mouth. It's the perfect insides to bread ratio. My bf got the chicken salad panini ($15) and THAT was amazing. The berries give it a sweet flavor. He was scooping what fell out of the sandwich with the chips it was that good. I recommend the Honey Boo cocktail if you like sweet flavors and bourbon. The Spicy Bee (I think that was it) was the perfect balance of pepper and orange. There's black & white movies playing on a screen in the corner which had me fascinated and I wish I knew what movie it was. The lighting is low and the decor makes you feel you might be sitting in a speakeasy. 2 drinks and 2 paninis came out to ~ $80 with tip, so it is pricey but it's worth it.

We…read moretook advantage of the happy hour brunch (8am-10am) on a Thursday, but went off the happy hour menu just to try the birria omelet. It was so worth it! The birria omelet was well seasoned. Meat was soft and delicious. The churro waffle was so fluffy and not too sweet. Perfect balance. Farmer's platter was good. My only note is they didn't add any butter to my toast, something I usually expect when I order breakfast plates. But since they charged me extra for ordering some garlic mayonnaise, I assumed they'd charge me if I asked for butter. Staff was attentive and kind, upsold us to the max. Which was a good and bad thing. The coffee we ordered, our server upsold us on flavored syrups and cold foam but did not disclose it'd be extra. Didn't complain since the coffee was delicious, but just keep that in mind if you try this place!

When we went, it was the last day of winter drink specials so not much was left to choose from though they do have bottomless hot coffee for a decent price and even offered to put fresh coffee in a to go cup as we were leaving! The food hit the spot. There are a lot of vegetarian options as well which is exciting. It is definitely on the pricier side for the portions though service was excellent.
