    Cashier was pleasantly, my order was ready and no one said anything. Overheard my name when a guy asked if the order on the counter was for him. The person making sandwich is definitely not a morning person. Food lacked flavor and was smashed together. A little pricey for what you get.

    Banana nut bread

    They have plenty of outdoor seating in the top patio. The food was great and tasted good! The banana nut bread with fruit was very tasty. I also ordered a special coffee and it was really good as well. The only issue was we ordered a side of ham for our dog for a treat. We received one slice of ham that you would get from a grocery store...not what I expected for 3 bucks or so. Otherwise a great spot for breakfast and a coffee!

    Breakfast Burrito

    A little dissatisfied with our trip to drift today. I had never been but my partner recommended it mostly for the coffee. I went with the breakfast burrito which was a big let down, the avocado was completely browned and the lady at the register told us that it was completely normal as they salt and put lemon on avocado as part of their prep. I understand that avocado browns rather fast but this felt like it was a couple of days old. It left the burrito tasting off and me wishing I had never ordered it. My partner ordered the chia pudding which was very pricey for what it offered and what I thought was rather bland.

    WE LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT DRIFT! Excellent breakfast burrito. Dreamy chia pudding to-go. Latte = 10/10.

    This is a great spot to get coffee, and grab a bite to eat in the morning. The service was quick, friendly and responsive. Our breakfast burritos were very yummy. The burritos were good but I expected a larger one considering the price, but it was good. The cafe has seating inside and outside.

    Stopped in on the way out of town for a last meal before we left out. Wonderful coffee and fabulous, healthy breakfast sandwiches. Only complaint is that they were out of forks which made eating our open faced sandwich super messy since it had an over easy egg. Would've been simple enough to run out and pick up some forks at a store. Overall a wonderful experience though and we will return for sure.

    THUMBS UP FOR THE BODEGA BREAKFAST SANDWICH.

    Ocean Isle Beach is an odd place. There is clearly an incredible amount of wealth, but there are so few places for people to spend their money on this side of the bridge. And with that said, Drift could probably just phone this in and they'd have a gold mine on their hands. But instead, they've got their atmosphere, service, and product all completely at their best. If you're coming from the city and missing some caffeinated creature comforts, Drift will push all of your buttons. Highly recommended, and such a relief to find in this strange place called Ocean Isle.

    Love this place! Coffees are always delicious and their baked goods are yummy as well. Never had their sit down breakfast but it is always packed no matter the location we've gone to!

    First time trying, and honestly won't be back…read more I'll start with the good. Place was clean, the service was excellent and very friendly, albeit slow as it wasn't very busy on this off season week. The friendly service is what upped the stars. Ordered a plain bagel with cream cheese and a toasted everything with butter, and an iced coffee. Husband said coffee was good. We waited 25 min for something that should've taken less than 5. When it came out the everything wasn't toasted but we also didn't want to wait any longer. The bagels were definitely not boiled, and tasted like a piece of bread, not at all like a bagel. The size was ok, but for what we paid, just not worth it. I will stick to my rule of only eating bagels in NJ or north.

    This is a local owned business that is well worth the wait in line. We arrived around 9 on a…read moreThursday with a bit of a wait. You stand in line to order and they bring the food to you when it's done. There's a dining room and a bar as well as patio seating. We ordered four bagels: one plain with grape jelly, one blueberry with strawberry jelly, one bacon egg and pepper jack on Asiago and one bacon, egg, American and bacon scallion cream cheese on jalapeño. We also order two coffees - one iced one hot, orange juice, a sunrise smoothie and a mimosa from the bar. Our sweets order was: donut holes, an Oreo donut and a cinnamon roll. The bagels were all very fresh and made perfectly. The coffees were custom orders and delicious - I had a hot cinnamon hazelnut coffee and it was an amazing combination! The donut holes were our favorite sweet! You could tell they were made fresh! The service was outstanding and the ambience was ideal. The kids loved watching the surfers on the big waves playing on the television! Definitely a must visit spot at OIB!
