Where it is
Get directionsSweet Al’s
Sweet Al’s is a coffee and bakery cafe in Coligny Plaza, run by a husband and wife from New Jersey, and it is where a lot of people start a beach morning. It opens at 7 a.m. every day and closes in the early afternoon, and there is a covered deck out front. On the island it is Sweet Al’s HHI, not to be confused with the other Sweet Al’s cafes on the coast.
What to Get
The case is full of donuts, pastries and croissants, and the New Jersey-style bagels are the thing to try if you are from that part of the world; reviewers recommend the everything bagel with bacon, egg and cheese. The homemade pop tarts and the pistachio almond croissants get mentioned too, along with quiche and breakfast sandwiches. The coffee is strong, hot or iced. The line can be long, but reviewers say it moves quickly, and the best selection is early in the morning.
Sweet Al’s is at 1 N Forest Beach Drive, Unit 1A, a short walk from Coligny Beach Park. For a sit-down breakfast in the plaza, see the Coligny Plaza restaurants.
