Little Key Coffee

Enthusiastic & Personal What an unexpected treat to find masala tea on the menu! I was already surprised to see it, but the taste was another level of wonderful—truly great. It's exactly the kind of seamless service I dream about, where I can just order 'tea' and be brought a perfect cup without having to make a single choice.

Coffee is always well made and beans are always well roasted. A small shop, but I really enjoy coming here.

Hole in the wall coffee shop that is probably my favorite coffee/espresso in the state. Hours are a bit limited along with the pastry selection but when they’re open it’s definitely worth the trip if you’re passionate about coffee. Owner is friendly and you can tell he really cares - each cup is always consistently amazing.

UPDATE: they have majorly updated their concessions, and it looks "wow!" This spot is a one-man show, and the owner is as friendly as they come. The pastry case, however, is more “cameo appearance” than “main feature” — limited options, not often replenished, and gone before you know it. Seating? Let’s just say you won’t be lingering long — and parking is a competitive sport. But here’s the thing: if you want a quick, no-nonsense cup of coffee to go, this place hits the mark. And the mint tea? Honestly, it’s the star of the show — fresh, flavorful, and worth a detour. Hours can be quirky (I swung by one Wednesday at lunch and it was closed on the dot at noon), but running a shop solo is no small feat. For the heart, hustle, and tea alone, it’s five stars from me.

I recently stumbled upon a charming coffee shop nestled in the heart of Hightstown downtown. I decided to indulge in their medium iced Maple Latte, and let me tell you, it's a game-changer! The espresso is the perfect blend of robust and smooth, powering me through the entire day. The ambiance is welcoming, offering both indoor and outdoor seating. Due to its prime location, parking is a tad bit tricky. I'd recommend using the parking lot by the nearby park or opposite the Rise Thrift Store. The only wish I have is for them to remain open seven days a week. They're currently closed on Sundays and Mondays, and I find myself longing for their delectable lattes on those days. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and visit this gem!
