What customers say

An excellent, NYC-Brooklyn style coffee shop with Devocion beans (iykyk), without the NYC prices. Cute, non-franchise vibe. Heading back next week to try their food too. Can’t wait!

If you’re looking for a spot that hits the perfect balance of incredible flavor, clean ingredients, and great vibes, Candelaria Espresso Bar in Matawan is the absolute truth. I stopped in and grabbed a specialty iced coffee with that perfect sweet cream foam and a turkey sandwich on fresh artisanal bread.

★★★★★ — Brooklyn, 2026-05

One of the very best coffee and food spots in this section of Monmouth County. Not only is the coffee tremendous and handmade, but the food is downright exceptional. From roast beef on fresh sourdough to breakfast burritos with mango, and amazing mortadella sandwiches.
