Always and forever love this place. The food is quick, simple and delicious. The service is great and the people there are so kind. I came here all the time once I got my car for breakfast or a snack. Every time I come home I still make sure to swing by and get my pork roll egg and cheese. read more

Every time I visited my friend in New Jersey, I passed by this place thinking, "How cute is this store?" I didn't even realize it was a small breakfast spot. One day, we finally decided to stop in for breakfast. The space is very cute and quaint, and they also have a small section selling snacks and little knickknacks. The way the place operates is a bit different, you serve yourself coffee, place your order deli-style, and pay upfront like a diner. They bring the food to your table, but there isn't much table service. It was slightly confusing at first, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. That said, it was a bit disappointing that the table wasn't clean. We had a baby with us, and when we wiped the table down, the baby wipe turned brown, not something you want to see. It may have been a busy moment, but cleanliness is still important. read more

In Colts Neck Township, you will find this store-and-diner after navigating a series of roads. I did not think I would include this as one of my trips, but I decided that I would come. Brand: 4/5 Colts Neck General Store is located in Colts Neck Township, which is initially a store that also acts as a diner. You will find many knickknacks throughout the walls and the ceilings. The red, barn-house walls definitely gives the store a classic look. The tall sign and the wall sign do have different fonts, with the tall sign having basic font while the wall sign had a more prestigious classic look. Wait Time: 5/5 I did not have any issues with the wait time, for it arrived on time. Ambiance: 5/5 As a store-and-diner, Colts Neck General Store has that unique appeal that I see in Monmouth County. You practically feel immersed into the small town appeal with classic rock playing over the radio at a tolerable volume. The food selection on their menu reflects the small town knickknack appeal, with its varying diversity. You will also find plenty of treats for sale near the counter. The dining area had plenty of space with wide tables, whether on their own or in the booths. Food: 4/5 I ordered the Aztec Specialty Omelet, consisting of jalapeno chips, fried onion, spinach, pepper jack. with a side of toast. Initially I ordered orange Juice, but also include a bottle of water considering the hot jalapeno chips and fried onions. Every well-cooked of the omelet definitely gives it a unique spin, though the buttered toast had an unassuming taste and crunch. The pepperjack cheese brings its hardy flavor to this flavor-packed dish. The Aztec Specialty Omelet held its form, even as I cut into it. Considering how Colts Neck General Store houses many unique knickknacks, I can definitely see how one of those items may have inspired this dish, for the Mexican influence has a pronounced presence. The time it took to prepare this dish accurately matched the waiting time, and the service behind it ensured that I received the meal with my choice of side dishes. The Aztec Specialty Omelet managed to satisfy for a little bit throughout the day. Service: 5/5 The staff managed to get my order without any issues, including asking me specific questions about which side dish I wanted. Based on first impressions, I will say that I felt accommodated while feeling immersed in a small town paradise. The wait time did not try my patience. I cannot say for certain whether the staff dust the knickknacks, but I will say that nothing about the ambiance irritated me, so I presume that they care for them. They also ensured the preparation of the menu items. Cost: 4/5 I will say that as a restaurant in Colts Neck Township, it did not become as expensive as expected. Driving across many varying roads, the arrival to such a unique eatery made the food worth it. I would definitely order differing menu items if I arrive in the future. I do think that having a website would help bring modern relevance to Colts Neck General Store without changing the restaurant itself. The wall sign better represents the store than the tall sign, and if the eatery did make a website, I hope it is used for the brand. Ultimately, the price of the Aztec Specialty Omelet and staying there was worth it. Rating: 4/5 Stars Right now, I will say that Colts Neck General Store has a niche presence in Colts Neck, with its unique ambiance and menu selection. I cannot say I would go back any time soon, but if so, I would enjoy any of the other menu items. Recommend To... Anyone looking for a diner with many knickknacks decorating its walls. read more

After a long wedding weekend, I finally found a breakfast sandwich that hit the spot! Food: my wife and I both got BECs but I really enjoyed the volume of food and how actually delicious it was. I always do mine with chipotle/spicy mayo and the mayo actually had significantly flavor to it. Service: everyone from the food counter to the front was so nice! It was such a pleasant experience. Ambiance: this is one of the cutest general stores I've seen in NJ. Perfect during the fall and I love the separation between store and restaurant. read more

Cute place across the street from Coastal core Had breakfast there. Omelette was real good Sour dough bread was great. And the banana bread was yummy. Everyone there was very nice. Will definitely be back read more

FINALLY!!! This establishment hired someone at the register who smiles, has good eye contact and has a personality!!!!! Maybe the owner should just tend to her kids, and leave the front of the house to people who enjoy their work. That said, breakfast sandwiches are great! Coffee... so so. read more

Minus one star for the prices. But ... this place has character. Walk back in time to a mom and pop shop that serves fresh, delicious food and sells kitchy stuff and gourmet spices and jams, and this is what you walk into. You almost feel like you are in the country even though you're 5 minutes away from McMansion suburbia. We got the everything bagel with pork roll/taylor ham (not getting involved in that debate!) egg and cheese, and coffee. Came out nice and hot, and was very enjoyable. This place is worth a look, even if you just buy one of their funny t-shirts. read more

I've been wanting to come here for awhile. I always had found memories of getting ice cream with my dad here in high school, which they no longer offer. We came for lunch and ordered a chicken cheesesteak and a California chicken sandwich. The chicken on both were so dry and unseasoned. The sandwiches as a whole had no flavor. I wouldn't come again. read more

This is a cool little local place that quite frankly I didn't know was there. Good thing I found out about it from my cousin because they have some good stuff here. I would stick with breakfast since it was on point. The taylor ham egg and cheese was really good. The taylor ham was thick and there was plenty of it. This is a simple sandwich but you know when it is done right. I also ordered the meatball parm sub and it was also pretty good. It looks like they have a bunch of hot food items like sausage and peppers, meatball parm, etc. I'm pretty sure they make this fresh daily so come get it while you can. The portions are also massive so you won't leave hungry. They have a huge menu so they have every sandwich you can think of. This is a cool local spot that does it right. They also have some indoor seating and friendly staff. Definitely come check it out if you are in the area! read more

Excellent deli within a very historical general store located within the heart of Colts Neck. I've been passing this location my entire life but only recently decided to drop in and actually check it out. They have the full range of deli type cold drinks and chips. Of course it's the deli counter that truly wows. They have a truly complete menu with everything from your traditional deli sandwich to hamburgers. I decided to order their California Chicken Sandwich which was a nice chicken breast on a hard roll with lettuce, onion and Mayo. It came with a small bag of classic Wise potato chips. Let me just say the sandwich was delicious. The interior store btw is full of little knick knacks which add to the "general store" appeal. There is also a sit down area to enjoy your food if you wish. I was extremely happy with my experience here and I'll definitely make it a point to stop in more often when I'm in the area. read more

Love our local CN General Store. Great breakfast & lunch platters, sandwiches, salads and omelettes and, ofc, Mary & her staff bring the atmosphere. They've worked hard over last few years to keep the quintessential charm of this old historic building, too. Go grab a cougar (sandwich) and enjoy! read more

A couple of my co-workers and I stopped in for late lunch on a Wednesday after working in the area. We are in the area once or twice a year and they had been here before. Upon walking in, I loved the old school charm and the rustic look. Who doesn't like the look of an authentic general store? The nostalgic signs, candies from yesteryear, and good old customer service. There was a plethora of creative sandwiches, wraps, muffins, and hot breakfast items on the chalkboard above the kitchen. I had the Western Omelet with potatoes and rye toast. My co-workers had a very meat filled wrap and a fat burger with onion rings. Plenty of wooden tables and chairs are available as you walk by their coffee bar. Prices were reasonable and I thank them for sending some memories my way. This won't be my last visit. I'll find them again on my next visit. read more

Great Breakfast or lunch This place will transport you back in time. Big portions, at a great price. Nice people working here Customers seem to be regulars and they are very friendly. I love the throwback (empty) cigarette machine read more

GW probably drank here and slept here during Battle of Monmouth. Obviously that is awesome. The old wood construction and the visible cooktops cooking up your Gator and Cougar are also awesome. My issue is way much egg and cheese on a roll. I would like to believe that my blood will circulate when I leave your establishment. Please reduce cholesterol in the food otherwise the place is clean great servers and great food. Just please can we go a bit leaner? Also great country charm. read more

Come here on my lunch break sometimes, and I don't really have anything bad to say about the place. I've gotten a few different things on the menu. Grilled chicken sandwiches, roast beef sandwiches, and some of their hot food. The food is pretty good and the atmosphere in the place gives me an "in the woods" kinda feel that's different but kinda cool at the same time. Sandwiches are always freshly made which causes a small wait, but that's a good thing. If you call ahead they can have it ready for you when you get there. Once again, pretty good spot that's in the cut. Try not to miss the entrance to the parking lot read more

I wish this place was good. It's cute and close but really gross food!! I gave it another try this morning and I ordered extra cheese and very very light ketchup. They always charge for the extra cheese but only give one slice and clearly huge amounts of ketchup. "Toasted roll" usually doesn't mean BURNT, at least not in my opinion. I threw out the sandwich and will go the extra miles to Joyce's in Lincroft or Country Store and Deli in Millstone in the future. You stink Colts Neck General Store!! read more

Let me say that this establishment is a very quaint , old school general store. The food is not bad, but nothing to write home about, but this review and rating is all about the fact that none of the employees are wearing masks during this COVID pandemic. The cashiers, waitresses, cooks, etc. Absolutely ridiculous with so many people getting sick and dying. They are exposing themselves, and in turn exposing others. Very frustrating to see. read more

A normal day in the life of a Colts Neck High School student: Step 1: Get on the school bus Step 2: Get off the bus at school Step 3: Pile into your friend's car Step 4: Smoke copious amounts of marijuana Step 5: Go to the Colts Neck General Store Step 6: Eat delicious, masterfully crafted sloppy breakfast sandwiches until your stomach explodes. Fuck yes, I'd like some more cholesterol with my cholesterol. Step 7: Go to class high as a kite and full-of-shit as Michael Moore at an all you can eat, liberals only buffet. read more

This place is a hidden gem! A true General Store is a blast from the past. My wife said the chicken salad sandwich was excellent and she was 100% right. If your even remotely in the area this is a must. read more

I take the lack of a review for this fantastic place as a sign that people from my town do not know about yelp. If they did this place would have a zillion reviews. At it's most basic the general store is a sandwich shop. FUCK YOU IF YOU THINK THIS IS ALL THEY DO! They serve breakfast fatsandwiches. If you don't know what those are then fuck you cause you don't know anything. They have a ton of sandwiches but their most famous is the Killer. It's absolutely ridiculous. Just thinking about it makes my heart hurt. Eggs, Cheese, Hashbrowns, Pork roll (fuck you not taylor ham), sausage, bacon on a sub roll. Also if you're the fishing type get some bait. It's a pretty rad place and worth going in. read more

Come here if you want to spend all the money you have in your wallet. one morning i came here to get some breakfast and i spent over 15 dollars for two breakfast sandwiches and two drinks.

Cute store and eatery part on the inside! Im sure this place gets packed during morning rush hour, as it's on a main road. I had a Taylor ham, egg, and cheese on a plain bagel toasted. Excellent sandwich, I definitely would come back here in the morning for breakfast; I do believe they serve lunch as well. read more

Tasteless Tuna sandwich. I'm tying to figure out how this is accomplished. There was zero flavor, the lettuce tomatoes Kaiser roll it all tasted like a frozen fast food sandwich designed to be heated in a micro wave. I tried to fix this by asking for garlic powder but the girl behind the counter was such a sour puss I'm sure they only survive due to location. Delicious Orchards is down the street so avoid this place. I have no idea how they stay open with the worst service and giving dirty looks on Sunday because they were closing in half an hour ?Thats bulls&*t Avoid this place at all costs read more

Have been here several times now for work lunch and the food is just ok. The prices are high but that's not unusual for this area. The best deal I got was when the hot food of the day was a roasted half chicken with rice and I think vegetables. That was really good! But the cold deli sandwiches and breakfast omelets are nothing special and didn't really have me craving for more. They have some really crazy breakfast sandwiches that I haven't tried but that's because they are unappealing to me. Also, the customer service could be better. When they are really busy, which they usually are during lunch, the lady at the counter can be really quick with you and not very friendly. Lunch options are lacking in this area so I'm sure I'll be back and can update this review if anything changes, good or bad. read more
