Common questions

Is this every café and bakery in Long Beach Island? No list like this is ever complete or permanent. This page reflects what each business’s own website or own published profile said as of November 2026, and it is checked periodically. If you know of a business that should be here, use the correction note at the bottom of the page.

Are national chains included? Yes. National chains are on this page on the same terms as anyone else; the test is the transaction, not the size of the company behind it.

Does a business have to pay to be listed? No. Every business on this page qualified by meeting the same test — see the note above the table.

Every detail on this page was checked in November 2026.

About This Guide

This guide is produced by Garden State Circle. Cafés, coffee shops and bakeries appear here because they meet the test described above — coffee (or tea), something baked, and a seat — and a location in Barnegat Light, Harvey Cedars, Surf City, Ship Bottom, Long Beach Township and Beach Haven, NJ. That is a test, not a judgment, and it is the only route onto this page. No business can pay to be included in this guide, to be listed higher, or to change what the comparison table says about it. Businesses are listed alphabetically, and every detail in the table was checked against each business’s own website or own published profile in November 2026.

Everything under the heading that begins this guide is governed by the rules above, on every guide we publish. Where a sponsor’s message appears above that heading, it is paid for and labelled, and it buys nothing in the guide. Garden State Circle is supported by the businesses that participate in it. Participation pays for our ongoing work: keeping a business’s entry accurate, re-checking its record, and publishing a page of its own details that the business maintains. There is no paid placement in this guide. Participation does not buy a place here, a position here, or anything the comparison table says. Where a row carries a verification date, that is when we last checked that business’s record ourselves. A row without one has not been checked recently — that is a fact about our work, not about the business. Ingredients, preparation and allergen handling change, and we record what each business publishes rather than inspecting kitchens. If you have a food allergy, confirm directly with the business before you order. Hours, menus and seasonal openings change often. Every detail here was checked on the date shown above.

Garden State Circle is published in New Jersey by Tiffany and Jake Slowinski and covers Ocean County. Contact the publisher at jake@gardenstatecircle.com. How every guide is made, in one place: how every guide is made.

How We Selected These Businesses

This guide covers Barnegat Light, Harvey Cedars, Surf City, Ship Bottom, Long Beach Township and Beach Haven.

A business is listed here if it sells coffee (or tea, for a boba or tea shop), something baked, and has a seat to enjoy them: a café, coffee shop, bakery, boba shop or roaster. National chains are on this page on the same terms as anyone else; the test is the transaction, not the size of the company behind it.

Every business below was checked against its own website or own published profile (own Facebook page or own Google Business listing where a business has no website), and each row shows the month we last checked it ourselves.

Where fewer than five cafés and bakeries in these towns passed that test, the nearest cafés and bakeries that pass the same test are listed in a separate table, each with the town it is based in.

Something out of date?

This guide is maintained. If anything here is wrong or has changed — a name, an address, hours, seating or ownership — tell us and we will check it. Businesses listed here are welcome to write in directly.
