The Perk & Press

After watching the sunrise at Jones Beach, my wife and I went looking for a cup of coffee and stumbled upon this place by chance. For food, we ordered the BLT to share and a bagel. The staff was very attentive, the atmosphere inside felt warm and welcoming, the restroom was clean, and parking was super convenient. I’d give it 100 out of 10. You really have to come and try it for yourself!

Absolutely loved this cafe and will def be back! Excellent customer service! There’s street parking and if you park further the walk isn’t too bad. Great food selection and pastries! The coffee and lattes were good we had to get another round when we were headed out. It spacious to sit for a few and relax, and there’s also outlets if you would like to work/study. Good music selection too!

I went to The Perk & Press for lunch. The staff behind the counter were very friendly and helpful. I have never been before so I asked what sandwiches they recommend. I ended up ordering the Jamaican Blue, It was excellent! The baguette bread was so good! To drink I had a white peach sweetened iced tea which was very refreshing and delicious. While I was there people never stopped coming in, which to me was a good sign. I definitely recommend trying The Perk & Press and I will certainly be a returning customer!

This café-restaurant is truly an unbidden gem that hits all the marks. The coffee is rich and delicious, and the food is simply outstanding—flavorful, wholesome, and perfect for anyone seeking healthy options. The atmosphere strikes a wonderful balance: lively enough to feel vibrant, yet still comfortable for good conversation. The staff are warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming, making the whole experience even better. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

Such a cute little spot! Excellent food, service, and drinks!! I’ve always been a huge fan of the Perk’s coffee shop that’s also nearby and when I heard of this place, I knew I had to give it a go. I ordered an Italian Roast pork sandwich and it tasted absolutely amazing. The vibe of this place is certainly homey and comfortable. The price is very good as well. Ordered two sandwiches, two large coffees, and a pastry and it didn’t break the bank. Would recommend this place to anyone who’s in the area and looking for a quick bite to eat!
