Vacationing
doesn’t mean a break from coffee, unless of course you WANT to see the ugly
side of your family. You all know what side I’m talking about. That side where
crow’s feet appear more prevenatly, to the point that you don’t recognize your
mother as she mutters some speech about the good old days. Mini-golf trips turn
into who can beat the other person with the club the hardest, picking the
perfect place on the beach to set up becomes an hour long event and so on. That
is beside the point. If you are lucky enough to find yourself in the quaint
town, Ocean City, New Jersey then you may find yourself searching for a café to
quench your coffee thirst. Ocean City Coffee Company in New Jersey; the
opportune place for vacationers to grab their java. 
With no
door, you simply meander in right off from the boardwalk, still clinging to the
sea licked air as you order your coffee. This café doesn’t distract you with
sandwiches, salads etc. they have their coffee, cappuccino’s, lattes, chai, tea,
muffins and a few other small snacks but for this café it’s all about getting
the customer their Fix. While many of the stores as well as condos at the beach
focus their interior design on that
seashells-plastered-on-the-walls-this-is-the-beach-so-enjoy-the-fish-wallpaper
feel, The Coffee Company doesn’t. Their
interior is a bit rustic. Your path as you enter is lined on either side with
full bags of coffee beans which they roast in shop to your left. Mahogany
shelving lines the right wall, displaying mugs, coffee beans the whole lot, not
too much to distract but enough to catch the eye.
With no
seating, you grab your coffee and go. A coffee drive through, so to speak. This avoids frustrated moments of searching
for a table, old men in the corner waiting for girls in bikinis, and small
children screaming for the 9,323 time that they want a milkshake. Well send the
kids to Kelis’s yard to get that milkshake because you don’t want to miss your
daily stop at Ocean City's Coffee Company.
