Red Light Coffee & Espresso Bar

I have been driving by this for a while and meant to stop in. There is a DD across the street so sometimes I go there. I had the had a Portuguese Galao and it is wonderful! They take credit cards! I will be back!

First visit today, had a Portuguese Galao. Really enjoyed. This may become my weekly indulgence.

It is so nice to have a small business coffee bar in lincroft. Great selection, friendly staff.

Been at this coffee shop a couple of times over the last few months. Tried the Aussie flat white and Portuguese Galao. Both were awesome. Had a discussion with the owner who is very knowledgable and passionate about coffee and the art of making it. This place is a treasure and I wish it were closer to home.

I love the knowledge the staff imparts with every cup. Their pour over coffee is divine and I love the Redeye. Having just returned from a trip to Italy, I can say the espresso is as good as any café in Rome. The variety of baked goods is wonderful and they offer gluten free items.

Why have I not reviewed this place yet? I only come here practically daily… if not more than once. If you truly love your coffee (as in the flavor of your coffee), get a pour over, just know it’s going to take about 5 minutes, so don’t expect lightning fast drive through speed for a great cup. Seriously has been some of the best coffee I have ever had. My personal favorite to date is the aprocetu, but a super knowledgeable and friendly owner and staff can easily guide you towards the blend that suits you best. :)
In a rush, their cold brew and house blend are ready to pour and also super delicious, so you can grab and go as well. :)
The bagels are delicious, nice variety of baked goods — shockingly, my personal favorite is the gluten free coffee cake (I am NOT gluten free).
Their chai tea latte is delicious, not overly sweet, just nicely done… their syrups are made in house and not what you would find at the big chain shops.
I’m pretty sure I have managed to try about half of their menu and haven’t had something I didn’t like yet… so, well done from the self-​proclaimed coffee snob. :)

RED LIGHT COFFEE AND EXPRESSO BAR — Great new Coffee place in the area. Ran in quick for coffee. Plan on returning for a longer visit and better review. Sells baked goods from Momma’s Gluten free bakery in Asbury Park. But as my family always say… I’ll have the gluten she doesn’t want and yes they have regular baked items also. Owners are really nice. Worth the check out if you are in the area. In the same shopping center as Acme and Aleo’s.
