Blue Cup Coffee — Restaurant in Seaside Park

Summary: great coffee, pastries, and design.

Coffee: I agree with the review by @KeenanBliss that the strength of the main brew is not as rich/strong as I typically prefer, but it has a surprisingly good flavor and I very much enjoyed it.

Humm, August heat and sun is sure to reduce cooling effectiveness, right. Then I tasted it, ok where's the sweetener, I ask thinking simple syrup would be available nope, sugar packs , do I need to say more? Granulated sugar DOES NOT dissolve in cold beverages, it drops to the bottom and does nothing for the drink. Now if I wanted JUST an iced Americano black this would have been the perfect drink, but it's not what I...

5 stars for the coffee and beverages. It tasted better than Starbucks coffee.. flavor was good not too sweet range of almond milk soy milk or regular milk. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

But the breakfast sandwiches unfortunately disappointed me I've never had such a sad breakfast sandwich for so much money the egg was so thin and the piece of cheese is so small I felt like I was eating a plain roll .. for the price of the sandwich I'd suggest adding two eggs.. 5⭐⭐⭐ ⭐⭐ five stars for the coffee.
