Dog friendly cafe!…read more NORMANDY BEACH: @The Undergrind Cafe might be the coolest cafe on the Jersey Shore. They have brought the full London vibe to the beach, from the iconic red telephone booth to Big Ben artwork, street signs, and a buzzing city‑meets‑shore atmosphere. The name "UnderGrind" is a clever twist on London's Underground transit system, and we love it! It is dog friendly too! Leashed and friendly pups are welcome inside and on the patio. Brie lived her best life with a whipped‑cream pup cup, Milk‑Bone treats, and a big bowl of water. The menu is massive. Coffee, lattes, teas, shakes, refreshers, smoothies, plus a full lineup of sandwiches, salads, soups, and take‑out. The vegan Beyond Burger was cooked perfectly, and the Dragon Fruit refresher was a 10/10. This place is not just a cafe, but a whole experience.

Went back for my second trip here. Once again, the coffee was delicious and the service from the…read moregirls at the counter was very friendly. However, I was really disappointed to hear the way the owner (or manager) was speaking to the girls working. Coming from someone who's worked in the service industry, there's nothing wrong with constructive criticism, but he was just plain rude to them. I really liked my coffee, but now I'm hesitant to come back after hearing the way the owner treats his staff.

Due-Back was highly recommended to us by 3 people we know. We were excited to have a cup of coffee…read morethere and made our way over. There was a person in line that even said she drove over an hour away to experience this coffee shop. From the moment we arrived we were disappointed. The location is very small. We opened the door to come in but found that you could not fit more than 4 people comfortably in the shop at one time. We had to wait outside for about 10 minutes before we could even step foot in the door. My fiance ordered the Harvest Latte and I ordered the Gingerbread latte. Mine came with a little gingerbread cookie which was nice. The total was $15 for TWO lattes. That price is literally ludicrous for 2 cups of coffee. Price aside it came time to try our lattes and we realized what a bad decision it was to have tried Due-Back. My fiancés Harvest Latte tasted of the most bitter artificially sweetened berry you could ever have. It completely masked the coffee in the drink. My gingerbread cookie was good, but my latte? Not at all enjoyable. For some reason I could also taste berry in my drink. Possibly because the berry was in the coffee grinds from the previous drink and they did not do an adequate job of cleaning the grind basket in the coffee machine before making the next drink. Apologies but not worth the $15 at all. We will not be Due-Back any time soon.

I absolutely adore this place and I actually found a new place to get a haircut next door for a reasonable price so it was a win-win for me. They made me a vanilla latte, served in a real cup, it was excellent. They had homemade pop tarts!! So I ordered the Nutella one of course! Pastry was light and flaky, maybe a needed a little more filling, perhaps they could've heated it up more. The counter dude brought my order out separately. The place is doing great business. I love the decor and will definitely be back. I love mom and Pop small businesses, an antidote to Starbucks. Could be a great place to enjoy something to eat, have a nice cup of coffee, and relax with a book. Seems pet friendly too as a young woman brought a cute Boston terrier in with her.

You can tell they put a lot of effort into this place. The menus on the wall weren't quite ready so…read morethey had printed menus on hand. It's dark and moody, and would be a little more cozy if it wasn't so vacant feeling. But all the tables, furniture and light fixtures look of quality. I really hated the tables though, they're not smooth on the top so when sliding my drink over to my partner, it caught on one of the uneven edges and spilled. The bag hooks on the side are appreciated though. The coffee, though. Not great. We ordered one hot and one iced of the peanut butter base lattes. A little bit more sweet than I would have liked but they do offer to make them less sweet if you request it. The hot latte was extremely hot though, I burnt my tongue. Later, I saw that the woman preparing the lattes just holds the pitcher of milk, steaming, at the steaming wand without regard to temp. So it seems they have may need some more training. I also wish they had pastries, and not just bars and cookies. Hopefully it gets better though!

This is situated inside of Tina's this and that shop. They had some paper menus posted around the counter, but then also a board behind them. I asked which of two drinks was the more popular and ended up ordering the Strega nonna. There was someone behind me on line, so after I ordered, I couldn't go past them, but next to me there was a velvet rope that I hopped over which was kind of awkward. I feel like they need to figure out this line situation a little better so the flow of traffic works. The drink was almost $10 for a small. I tried it once I got outside and it was too sweet for me and you could barely taste the espresso. Unfortunately, not for me.
