The Union Market & Gallery

I will go out of my way and accept inconvenient work assignments to be near Union Market. Sometimes my husband joins me on emergency calls just so he can get a waldorf chicken salad after. We love how they are invested in the art and history of their community. They pair that passion with really thoughtful, whimsical, delicious yums for every pallet and craving. Where else are you getting freshly made hot croutons or sometimes like half a grilled cheese sandwich to garnish your soup?! Tastes like love in here. Follow them on Instagram for drool worthy specials, then stop in and see what all the fuss is about.

This is my third visit and they were gracious enough to open for our book club meeting. Food is always exceptional, staff and service is awesome and it’s a cool atmosphere. Eager to see if I can get some of my art in there. But I will be back and will absolutely recommend!

The UM is my family’s go-to breakfast and brunch eatery in the Tuckerton area. We love their food especially the vegan options. All of the employees have always been kind and welcoming. The prices are fair considering everything is made fresh. The atmosphere is chill and artsy. Everyone we’ve ever introduced to the UM always loves it there. Also, anytime we’ve ever had any issues or concerns (which no establishment is immune to) the staff is always super helpful in addressing and fixing the problem. We highly recommend Union Market for all they have to offer!

Finally a place that is not a diner or catering to a mainly older crowd in the area!
Modern & stylish, good coffee & food that is not totally basic, nice vibes overall.
Efforts to bring the younger community together with open mic days and other events.
Awesome local art on the walls that is usually for sale :)
nice little gift shop in the front.
A huge thank you to the owners and investors 🫶 you make a difference in this area!!!
The music selection could be a tad more sophisticated imho. Too much pop and Glee… The place is so unique, why play such basic music?

We stopped by when visiting the Shore for coffee and some breakfast sandwiches. I couldn't be more happy with the service and food. The pork roll, egg and cheese we got was fantastic. The overall atmosphere was great too, a beautiful inside to eat and relax and an equally as gorgeous outside patio as well.

Food is always good. The atmosphere is super chill. Had the specials today, pumpkin chai pancakes and deep-fried cornbread.. so good!

I seriously love this place! My husband always gets the vegan Weezer but after tasting my Hot Chick... So I changed the Hot Chick a little instead of ranch I got the Siracha aioli and instead of American cheese I got Munster Cheese. The best chicken sandwich I've ever had the toast was buttery perfectly toaster, delicious red roasted peppers, veg bacon or you can get the real deal, was mouth watering delicious! I'm definitely making this my go to!

We always like stopping in here when we are in the area.

Great vegan options.. We've had various wraps both breakfast and lunch styles.. Delicious Lattes as well and yummy desserts.

Always check out the board for the specials!

The space itself is really nice.. Great to sit inside or out and afterwards.. Take a nice walk on the Boardwalk through the little village. 😁❤🌈

Vegan GLBTQ+ friendly

Absolutely love the cafe everything about the restaurant is wonderful the food the friendly staff and atmosphere highly recommend checking them out (Foods Amazing 👍😸👍)

I cannot sing enough praise for the Union Market. It has been my favorite place since they opened and never disappoints. You can eat inside, outside on the porch or order for pickup or delivery...so convenient. Their specialty coffees are a good way to get your day off to a great start. Shout out to counterperson, Audrey...excellent service!
Thank you, Union, Keep going strong!

Always a good experience!! Love the food and the customer service!! Plus they make really good drinks too.

My daughter loved her babycinno

Easily the best brunch spot in town, with dozens of delicious options, from freshly baked pastries to savory sandwiches.

I purchased the Cracken Mags with an Iced Chai Tea and both deliciously exceeded my expectations. If you want to have a great brunch at a reasonable price, with the occassional sprucing of live music, I highly recommend The Union Market and Gallery for all your finger-licking needs.

Awesome place, creatively named all their items after music artists, and they’ve got tons of veg/vegan options. Had a great DJ playing nightmares on wax vibes outside. Food took a little bit to make but they were up front about that to begin with.

Their Iced Chai (pictured) is literally the best I've ever gotten at a coffee shop. Everything I've purchased here has been good. It's always consistent and the quality is great. Love the atmosphere too. The only negative thing I can say is I wish they offered larger sizes for iced options. I'd gladly drink a gallon of this if I could. 🤣

This coffeeshop is definitely the go-to place for a quiet time. The staff is really nice and welcoming, making feel right at home—even as a first-timer! Today was a cloudy day, so the interior was pretty ambient and muted, giving off some sort of library-from-medieval-times vibe and added to my experience there.

In terms of food, I ordered what I think is called The Weezer(?) in a potato bowl that consists of eggs, tomato, avocado, bacon, and some condiments. I definitely would have enjoyed this for breakfast, (breakfast and lunch is served all day) but alas, I couldn't quite eat it earlier than I did. That didn't take away from the food, however, and when topped with some black pepper found in the basket on any of the tables, it was very enjoyable! I also ordered an iced caramel macchiato for about $4 and it matches what one would get at Wawa. There are other varities of milk one can try, but I'd have to visit again to experiment.

It appears that pairs of people often come here, judging by how the tables are set up with two chairs, though there is seating the family can share near the door. Eating alone (which is what I did) isn't too awkward either, which is something I find myself doing pretty often as of late, so that's a definite plus. There's also a bar-like table that is seated in front of a window with a view towards the river by the seaport, and had the weather been better, it would have looked very good.

All in all, I highly recommend coming here for an easy time with a friend or two. The food is definitely a strong point, and the coffee is also quite good and customizable with milk and sugar if you buy a basic cup. The interior is very pleasant combined with a welcoming staff, and as someone who was hyped to come to this place for a while, it certainly did not disappoint.

The Union Market & Gallery, like Carazy Beans Cafe', is a rare treat in this fishing and boating community. Unlike the Cafe' though the Union Market is a little hidden. You have to go into the Seaport behind the museum to find it. It transports you back in time a bit. It overlooks the old buildings and docks of the old seaport, very definitely a cool spot. The food is aces. It is my favorite breakfast spot in town. The menu is varied and they have gluten-free substitutions for just about everything on the menu. Also it is not expensive. Diner prices for an eclectic menu. They have music, readings, art and other activities too. Very cool place.

Great atmosphere, employees, and let’s not forget the food and drinks! My fiancée and I have been here twice back to back days for lunch and had the pleasure of meeting Chris who took our orders both days. He was super helpful and friendly in making recommendations that were spot on with our taste. Will be back every time we are in Tuckerton!

I have been here too many times to count. If you haven’t not been, I’m not sure what you are waiting for. Their coffee and food is both amazing. Tons of vegan options, and lots of baked goods. They have a kind staff and they have a ton of events that give back to the community.

Diamond in the rough for sure. Delicious food, coffee, smoothies, friendly staff, just an awesome little gem. Outdoor dining so peaceful. Highly recommend!

Will always love this place. Amazing food, coffee made right every time, top notch quality and phenomenal staff. I always bring someone new with me and I always see them going back.
