Im not sure why this Starbucks has such negative reviews online. I love this location. I know that this is not a "corporate" Starbucks or whatever (meaning they are privately owned and do not participate in every program). However, I love the beachy vibes of this location. They really go all out to make the Starbucks feel like you are at the beach.Even though it is not a corporate Starbucks, I was still able to use my Starbucks card and earn stars. Typically, I would avoid fast-food coffee at the beach (there are a ton of great places down here that aren't Starbucks i.e. Positively 4th Street) but it was early and I was craving Pike's Place.Most coffee shops in OCNJ don't open until 7am but this one is ready at 6. If you are downtown early, this is your spot.
Expired items! After discovering we were given months old milk, we brought it back to see if they can replace it. Manager did not come out to help and instead of just giving us a new, non-expired, chocolate milk, we were given a cup of poured white milk. Not the type to complain but I would prefer to receive what I paid for.
Always an enjoyable time at this location. I drive past 2 other Starbucks to come to this one. Good spot to sit with friends order some drinks, snacks, play games and catch up. Staff is always welcoming and friendly. Love the seating area and fire place as well.

We gathered reviews from Google and Tripadvisor, and summarized helpful tips as well as commonly mentioned things others might find useful.
- If you prefer fast service and quality products, visit during less crowded times to avoid potential delays.
- Be aware of different policies compared to corporate Starbucks such as no free refills or honoring awards on the app.
- Check your items for expiration dates before consuming them to avoid receiving old products.
- Consider bringing your own reusable cup if you want to avoid extra charges for modifications like asking for no ice.
Reviews
Visitors have mixed feelings about this Starbucks location, with some praising the welcoming staff, cozy seating area with a fireplace, and beachy vibes. However, others mention issues like slow service, different policies from corporate Starbucks (such as no free refills), expired items being served, and inexperienced staff struggling to make drinks correctly. Despite these drawbacks, many appreciate the early opening time at 6 am in a beach town where most coffee shops open later. The decor is highlighted for its ornate design featuring driftwood and neutrals that create a homey yet sophisticated atmosphere.

Dear owner you need to put up signage our Starbucks store good name rides on the good vibes of corporate Starbucks ie not with free refills you don't.You don't do this. You ought to put up a sign saying as much.Unless you do know better but want our business ; then to have your employee explain that " you're not exactly " the Starbucks everyone knows, sans airport.Right?
Aside from paying an extra $1 for a small coffee, it was extremely uncomfortable watching the bored young team member obsessively fondle her long hair and then make and serve coffee and food with her unwashed hands.As I'm writing this another young woman I have not seen in the 45 minutes I've been sitting here come out and put her hair in a ponytail, while also wiping her nose with her bare hands and then proceed to work without washing her hands... 🤢
