Stopped by for a quick coffee:the Newport iced latte. Really tasty! After I ordered I saw they had a seasonal menu so I wish I could've ordered off there. I will definitely visit again next Time I'm in the area. Very nice ambiance inside and very clean read more

Service is slow, and the drinks just taste like sugar with milk. We keep trying this place and are disappointed every time. If you like sweet milky coffee this is a good place for you. read more

Wonderful service and delicious coffee. I got the pumpkin La Jolla and it was the best latte I've had in a long time. And they don't charge an arm and a leg! read more

I can't believe I've never written a review for this amazing cafe! I visited for the first time almost a decade ago, but I've been coming more frequently now that it's very close to my new job. Everything I've had here has been absolutely delicious! My top espresso choices are La Jolla, Pebble Beach, and Maple Brown Sugar Espresso. The Pebble Beach cereal treat and Cookie Dough Croissant are also very tasty if you're looking for a sweet treat :) I'm always on the go when I grab a drink here, but there's plenty of indoor seating and the interior (including the bathroom) is always clean and a great space to do work or meet up with a friend. Staff is always nice and efficient and it's located in a strip mall, so there's always plenty of parking. They also sell lots of cute merch, including a Pebble Beach candle that smells like Fruity Pebbles! One of my favorite cafes in NJ! read more

Have wanted to try this coffee spot for awhile and I'm so glad I finally did! Not only was this latte stunning to look at but it was also so good. The lavender flavor was so prominent and the coffee was so smooth. It's their spring special Honey Lavender Latte and I 100% trying before it's gone! The avocado toast was good as well - reminds me of the ones I made at home. Was very fresh and a great pick me up meal. read more

Great and friendly service. The strawberry rose lemonade was sweet and refreshing. The Alcatraz was delicious and reminded me of chocolate milk. They have plenty of wall outlets for you to use if you need to bring your laptop and get some work done. The place has great music playing in the background but not so loud where you can't carry a conversation. If you prefer to catch some sun as you dine there, they do have a few outside tables. read more

I stopped in randomly on a Saturday morning after being in town visiting friends. I was looking for a good coffee shop that wasn't a chain and California Cold Co was a great choice. I got one of their summer iced coffee drinks (something with cherry and almond) and it was absolutely delicious. There was a bit of a wait, but it wasn't anything too bad. Definitely worth a visit read more

It's been too long since I gave one of my fave cafes a little Yelp love. And since it's Women's History Month, they get double love with a review update (spoiler alert: still 5 stars!!!) There is no bad drink on the menu, sure there are some that are super sweet and some that are perfect when you want more of a true cup of coffee, but they all hit the spot. Some favorites: the La Jolla & the avocado toast. It is a perfect combo for a coffee break and snack. I am pretty sure I mentioned them in my review back in 2019, so my tastes have not changed much. They have soooo much seating inside. Tables, high tops, couches. I've mostly only ever been in on the weekdays, but I don't think you'll have trouble getting a seat if you want one. They also have some tables outside on nice days. The baristas are all incredible helpful and sweet. Always patient with my questions like "how sweet is this drink?" or "wow this bread is good, what kind is it?!" Anyway, if you haven't been, I highlyyyy recommend. Oh! And they have a second location now!! Good news all around. read more

California Cold Co has become one of my favorite coffee shops bc there's always seating, the staff is so nice, and of course, the coffee is delicious. The only thing I would change is lowering the music volume. read more

Wonderful staff and amazing coffee & drinks. California cold co is located in the middle area of the plaza. Clean and spacious, there are high tops, tables, and a couch area to hang out. The menu had so many unique choices. Cold brew tastes light and nutty, definitely a good cold brew. Also the blueberry matcha latte was awesome. There is plenty parking out front read more

The coffee tastes good don't get me wrong, but the amount of caramel is just ridiculous. Idu they think I'm caramel deprived or something? read more

Been here a few times and everything is consistently good. Love the La Jolla and the iced caramel drink so creamy and delicious. The avocado toast is pretty good too, just a little expensive for how simple it is. The vibe is so cozy and inviting. Definitely would hang out here and have a coffee and relax. The place is always crowded so they're doing something right. read more

A must for coffee lovers and non-coffee drinkers. California Cold Co. is a coffee shop and lounge that offers a variety of drinks and small bites. It has a spacious cozy and modern atmosphere with comfortable seating, wi-fi, outlets and music. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the service is fast and efficient. Ordered was the Alcatraz, one of their Signature Crafts, which has a double espresso shot, house-made vanilla, activated charcoal and oatmilk. Added were the dark ice coffee cubes. The beverage was smooth, flavorful, with just the right amount sweetness and a nice caffeine hit. The dark ice coffee cubes retained coldness without thining out the drink. Well worth the extra 75 cents. I will definitely be back to experience their other Signature Craft Espresso Beverages and their Cold Brew offerings. read more

I want to give 5 stars however the service seriously takes forever. People in the store, not in the store, your coffee will still take 10-15 mins. The restaurants inside and menu are set up decadently, but they fail through their service. read more

Tried this place when we visited NJ and they had a fruity pebble infused coffee that I thought was very fun and unique. Wish I could get something like this locally. Cute aesthetic inside. read more

Staff is very hardworking and pleasant - visited Monday, June 16 early afternoon. Highly recommend - vibe, music and drink - snack selection very good. read more

Wow! I was pleasantly surprised at the cool vibes that this place gives when you walk in, because it's a part of a very unassuming, sorta blah looking strip mall. But, the best part... I've never seen a more creative cafe menu in my life! I mean, Fruity Pebble iced coffee?? Of course, I had to get that one... espresso, vanilla, and Fruity Pebble milk.. it was perfect. You can ask for less of the Fruity Pebble milk to make it less sweet.. which I did. They have a great seasonal menu that sounded over the top good... pumpkin spice anyone? There is a great sitting area in the back with really comfy clean couches, armchairs, and a table where my guest and I sat. Nice beats were playing. Can't wait to return and try other items on the menu, including the avocado toast! read more

California Cold Co. is a unique coffee shop tucked away in a small strip mall, which upon first glance, can be easy to miss. Upon entering, the ambiance is very dark, modern looking though quite cozy and inviting. There's also several tables perched outside each with a succulent centerpiece. They have really unique drinks and seasonal specials. You can also order your drink with coffee iced cubes to keep your drink saturated! I ordered a lavender honey iced latte which was pretty good. Service could use a bit of improvement since we had to ask for a missing ingredient. Overall, a great hidden gem to try! read more

This is my idea of the perfect mid-day pick me up. California Cold Co. hits the spot with their iced lattes. Regardless of the weather, their iced drinks are far superior and 100% worth the cold fingers. The ambiance is perfect for meeting up with a friend or doing some casual work. It's always a pitstop when we're in the area. read more

Let me start with the following: I regret not finding this place before, how did I miss it?? According to the barista, they've been in Manalapan for about 2 1/2 years (around the same time we opened our second office location) and we still have yet to find a new coffee spot other than Rook. But it's never too late and I'm glad I found it! Such a nice place to enjoy coffee and some sweet stuff. The ambience is super nice, modern looking spot, cozy, calm, gets you in the mood to read or do some work. The baristas are very nice and patient, and the coffee is good!!! My eyes wide opened when I saw peppermint flavor on the seasonal menu, I love peppermint so I ordered an iced peppermint coffee... DELICIOUS!!! I LOVE coffee spots and I'm so glad this spot is literally 2mi away from me and on my way home, definitely coming back! This coffee spot it a hit for me! read more

Went to California Cold with mom during our date. We got coffee to go. The coffee has always been amazing, could be a little sweet. The seasonal drinks are fun to try.

I like to say that "I Left My Heart in the City of Angels". I've visted L.A./SoCal countless times so when I found this coffee spot thanks to the raving review from my CM, Katarina L., I had to see why a coffee shop in Central Jersey is called California Cold Co. It turns out that the owner lived in the West Coast. All the oversized mural and photographs of Venice Beach & the Hollywood sign were taken by him. Surveying the menu was super fun to read because all the drinks and bites were named after places in San Francisco or L.A. Here is what we ordered: - Monterey Bay (Chocolate, Coconut, Choice of Milk) - Alcatraz (House-Made Vanilla, Activated Charcoal, Oat Milk) - Banana Foster Latte (Espresso, Banana, Caramel, Honey, Milk of Choice) I give all the drinks a 10/10. With every sip, I can taste the fresh brewed espresso with a perfectly balanced aftertaste of the banana in my Banana Foster Latte. And if you're like me who likes to suck and crunch on ice, you can add Dark Ice Coffee Cubes for $.50 extra but I wouldn't say it enhanced the drink. Being a huge fan of peanut butter, I had to order The Presley. Each slice was full of ooey-gooey goodness. Love the fresh slices of bananas, honey drizzle and chia seeds. Perfect with our iced lattes. A special thank you to a Yelper who made me love lattes as much as boba milk teas. You know who you are. Make sure to check out their Special Seasonal Crafts. read more

There aren't a lot of coffee places in this area, but I'm thrilled this place is. It has a very chill vibe with a great music playlist sets you in an easy mood. The staff is polite and friendly, and gets the order right the first time. There is a nice selection of deserts, plus a delicious food menu. Hint: try the avocado toast. The coffee was good, and so was the overall experience. I noticed most patrons buy and take it to go, but I suggest to not rush. Sit down, chill and enjoy some down time. read more

Super cute spot. You can tell the team put a lot of thought and love into the design of this space. There are a variety of seating options, so it's a great place to either quickly grab a coffee or chill with friends. Also open late - till 7pm! The cold brew was super smoooth. Highly recommend. La Jolla tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but make it ~adult~. Coffee ice cubes is a cute addition. read more

They have plenty of seating, seasonal flavors, merchandise for sale, and a cozy, casual ambiance, plus great coffee. I got the honey lavender latte with oat milk and loved it - it was so smooth and on point. It was just the right amount of flavoring and milk/coffee ratio! Loved hanging out and enjoying a cup of coffee here. I so wish a place like this existed close to me, so that I could just hang out and work. Great cafe! read more

I love this place. Always warm and friendly...coffee is the best around. The Kona cold brew with Dark (coffee) ice is my go to. And if I want to indulge a little I'll with go to the specials board or you can't go wrong with the La Jolla (LA-HOY-YA) They always remember you and your order. I bring the beans with me I travel. I would recommend this coffee shop 10 out of 10 times. Good music, good customer service, And the best coffee around. read more
