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.

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.

The ambiance is very welcoming and comforting. Our server, McKayla I believe, was very helpful and patient with us. She answered all of our questions and made some very helpful suggestions. The food was delicious our friends from Two of a Kind Estate Sales had the prime rib, which was perfectly seasoned and cooked. My wife had the Crab stuffed flounder with green beans and rice pilaf, DELICIOUS!!! I had the Vodka rigatoni with shrimp which was extremely tasty!! We then had desert, which again, they did not disappoint as well! We got the Crème brûlée (amazing!!!) and the rice pudding (just as amazing!!) which were phenomenal! All in all a perfect night out! Needless to say the next time my wife and I are in the area, we will definitely be dining here! Keep up the awesome job! P.S. sorry for no pictures

I wish we could have stayed & watched the entire thing. Definitely one of the better waterfront spots in the area!

I ordered the Mom Burger, which is a Swiss burger topped with mushrooms on a brioche bun. It also came with a good portion of fries and a side of pickles. The burger itself was pretty solid -- good flavor and a satisfying size. At $16, the portion felt fair considering the amount of fries you get with it. One thing I noticed was an additional charge for sauces. I asked about it, and they explained that all their sauces are made in-house, which is why they charge $1 per sauce. Honestly, that makes sense when they're homemade. Now the star of the show for me was actually the drink. After looking over the menu a bit more, I decided to try the LA Metro coffee drink with almond milk. I'm not a big coffee drinker, but for $5.99, I have to say it was really good. Definitely something I'd order again. I also want to mention the customer service. The girl working at the counter was extremely nice -- probably some of the best customer service I've had in a while. She didn't rush anything, answered my questions, and was very professional and friendly. I asked about the specials, the cakes they offer, and even whether they were doing a St. Patrick's Day platter, which they are. Overall, it was a really good experience. Good food, great drink, and excellent customer service. I'd definitely recommend stopping by Taylor Sam's if you're in the area.
