What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"This place is honestly worth the drive. I drove two hours for this coffee place and I can say that it was quite one of the best I’ve ever tried. The coffee is so tasteful and amazing and the vibes in the place are very soothing and relaxing has nice air condition, especially in this hot summer days and also their outdoor seating is pretty limited, but it’s cute. Also they have a nice variety selection of dessert, options and mini foods."
"I have been on the hunt for the best coffee in the Bradley Beach/ Asbury Park area all summer and Perfect Perk has reigned supreme. They are constantly updating their specialty menu, with a variety of new coffee options. I’ve been in town for about a month and have tried 3 different specialty cold brews, all delicious!! My boyfriend drinks coffee black and also said their cold brew tastes delicious on its own. Their sizes are true to size (the large is actually massive and the medium is quite big as well) so it makes paying $6 for a coffee worth it. Everytime I go it is not nearly as busy as it should be, this place deserves recognition for being the best coffee in the area!! Has a great indoor and outdoor sitting area, perfect for catching up on work. The only reason I gave 4/5 stars for food is because they could not confirm if pastries had nuts since they source the baked goods from an outside bakery, but I did enjoy a cinnamon roll and would be interested in trying other food on the menu. The drinks are 11/10!!!"
"This is my absolute go-to coffee spot DTS and it should be yours too if you stay around the Bradley Beach or Asbury Park areas. The coffee is phenomenal (I only get lattes, my girlfriend gets their cold brews) and they have an awesome selection of pastries. IMPORTANT: make sure to ask what pastries are from that day and ensure you ask for them to heat it. They do keep pastries a bit past their prime in my opinion and they won’t always heat it up if you don’t ask. Besides those last two points, absolutely phenomenal local coffee shop."
"I visited this coffee shop today (01/19/26)with my parents, my sister, and my husband around 3:30 pm. As soon as we walked in, we were told the place would be closing at 4:30 pm, even though the sign outside clearly stated a 5:00 pm closing time. Our coffees were served lukewarm, and the overall attitude while serving us felt unwelcoming. What made the experience especially upsetting was that after us, other customers came in and were treated warmly and cordially. In all the years I have lived in this country, (we are US citizens), I have never felt such an uncomfortable and discriminatory atmosphere in a place open to the public. This was very disappointing."
"Minutes from the beach perfect spot to grab a coffee before the long drive home. Came here on a Saturday at 17:30 for a fill up and they made me a fresh batch as the one they had was dregs. Excellent confectionery treats as well. Would come back again. Clean bathroom. Friendly staff and good coffee. Parking is ample and well spaced. Inside is clean with comfy seating and games for your family."
"I got to the coffee shop right at seven when it opens. I asked for a 12 ounce drink with a very small amount of half-and-half. I got out of the coffee shop,..."
