Quaint coffee shop with decent breakfast food options. Quality and healthy food options, with a helpful staff. The wait on Labor Day weekend Saturday was a bit long. We were able to find a table to dine-in with our party of five. The noise level was such that we could carry on a conversation, but the restaurant offers limited seating and noise level rise significantly with larger crowds. The Shoreline iced latte and turkey sausage, egg, and cheese on multigrain toast was delicious. Recommend going early, or avoiding busy weekends unless you have time to spare.

The coffee was fantastic. But the wait for our bagels was kind of crazy, we clocked it at around 15 minutes. The place wasn't even packed when we placed the order. In that 15-minute span, only two bagel orders came out of the kitchen. For a wait that long, I was hoping for an amazing bagel, but it was just OK. So, five stars for the coffee, but the food service needs to speed things up.

EXCELLENT coffee. Came to town for a wedding and stayed just a few blocks away. Felt extremely fortunate to find Ruby’s and start the day off strong. Had both their regular house brew (hot) as well as their cold brew. Of all the cold brews I’ve ever had, I honestly think this was the best ever. Ever! Location on the pier can not be beat!

Coffee was great, but the specialty lattes run pretty sweet. Ask for less syrup if you’re not into super sweet lattes. BEC bagel could’ve been toasted a little longer but it was still very good and hit the spot. Will definitely be visiting again! Limited seating inside, so be prepared to wait for a table or just get it to go.

Double espresso was high quality. The crema was as good as any coffee roaster I’ve been to! I highly recommend this place, I was pleasantly surprised!!! The group I was with drink milk/flavored coffee and they enjoyed theirs too. For me the double espresso was so good I didn’t go to any other coffee shop the rest of my trip.
