Magic Brain Cafe — Restaurant in Cape May

Tasty coffee and other drinks. I've had their cappuccinos, caramel macchiato, and Chai latte in my most recent visits. Cappuccino was good/standard. Caramel macchiato way too sweet for me but that's just personal preference. If you like sweeter things, this may be perfect for you. Chai latte is from a powder, which I appreciated instead of being a Tazo or other liquid mix or from a syrup flavoring. It was sweeter than I expected, but that's on me for not asking if they add a sweetener. Good, fresh pastries. Friendly and personable staff. Cozy and inviting atmosphere. Convenient location near Washington Street Mall. Cost is a bit pricey by everyday standards, but on par with a beach town and the price at other cafés in the area. My only disappointment is that they only have disposable cups for their coffee/drinks instead of offering mugs for those enjoying within the café. I was told during COVID they did away with them, and haven't brought them back. To me, eco-friendliness is an important factor for my patronage, so this won't be my top pick for future visits. If it isn't important to you, then go enjoy some magic...

This is my absolute favorite coffee shop in Cape May. Everything from the coffee to the pastries is the highest quality, but the prices are very reasonable. They make their matcha latte from powder, not pour it from a box, so it tastes fresh and full of flavor; the coffee is smooth, aromatic and nuanced. Everyone who works here is super nice and they do a fantastic job remembering return customers. Though there are many places in Cape May to get coffee or a sweet treat, I come here for both. Their croissant is the best I have ever had and their oatmeal raisin cookie is so scrumptious and I don't even like oatmeal raisin cookies! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting and never too loud or too crowded, and there is a palatable sense of community when...

My go to place in Cape May for the brown brew that greases the wheels of western society's progress. The employees are delightful and helpful. Many of their signature drinks such as the frozen hot chocolate and London Fog (with lavender infused Earl Grey), are tastes you'll return to without a second thought of hesitation. There is no sense of hoity toity coffee snobbery here, they make your mind mood lifting elixir they way you request it to suit your taste. I highly recommend a shot of espresso in that frozen hot chocolate just to take the sugary edge off and a lift to your step as you cruise the sidewalks of Cape May with your lifted spirits and perpetual smile. It just feels good to go to a place that enjoys serving you as much as you...
