Crusader Coffee Shop

villas sits at the quieter end of cape may county, the kind of jersey shore stretch where the coffee scene is thinner than you'd hope and most options lean toward convenience over care. crusader coffee shop, down on ocean avenue in wildwood crest where cardinal road meets the water, is the exception that regulars here clearly don't take for granted. the standing it's built up with the people who actually live here, not just summer through, says more than any promotional line could. if you're making the drive out to this end of the shore, it's worth timing your visit to land a morning cup before the ocean breeze picks up and the avenue gets busy.
