Living on the Jersey Shore means more to many locals than seafood specials and concerts on the beach; there’s also an artisanal coffee scene that keeps locals satisfied year-round, featuring consistently excellent cold brew and quick, no-fuss service. Rook Coffee stands out as one of the Shore’s premier coffee brands with loyal local followers as well as newcomers looking for new experiences across the country; their strong local presence demonstrates their dedication to community connection and consumer trust; making for a brand with quality coffee combined with local flair that keeps consumers coming back year after year.

Rook was established in 2010 by co-owners Holly Migliaccio and Shawn Kingsley, two former corporate professionals who found fulfillment elsewhere before turning towards hospitality as co-owners of Rook. Both Holly and Shawn hold deep roots within the Shore community. Longtime friends, both passionate about coffee, these two business partners are dedicated to bringing West Coast-style customer service standards to New Jersey Shore residents. At first, this company focused on sourcing beans from around the globe and using a pour-over method of coffee preparation; now however, they have 11 locations spread out among Ocean Township, Little Silver, Wall, Red Bank, Colts Neck, Manalapan Holmdel, Freehold Borough Long Branch Point Pleasant Borough as well as selling cold brew in bottles online and stores; plus their new facility will allow them to double production!

As for their name, Holly and Adam decided to pay tribute to both their New York roots and a bird that symbolizes resilience and perseverance: the Eagle. According to Holly, it represents their strength as individuals as well as in business: this goal is something they strive for every day and in business alike.

Tigger House Foundation holds as one of its core values giving back to the communities it supports; thus a substantial portion of their profits go toward local charities and nonprofits in need. Donations made directly from their bottom line go toward groups such as The Valerie Fund which assists families dealing with childhood cancer; Monmouth County Child Advocacy Center located in Freehold; Tigger House Foundation which seeks to open an investigation facility dedicated solely to sexual and physical abuse of children; Tigger House Foundation which strives to open such facilities; as examples. All donations come directly from their bottom line!

Rook takes pride in supporting its workers who cultivate coffee at fair wages. As part of its environmentalist initiative, they use solar panels to reduce their carbon footprint while making sure that water used to make cold brew is clean and safe for consumption.
