Bridge Avenue and Route 88 are the two main shopping streets in Point Pleasant. Divi Tree Coffee opened its doors on Bridge Avenue on October 27, 2017. Joe and Maylon Torrisi own it and run it, and you can find them in the kitchen or behind the counter. Here's what the shop pours, what it serves, when it's open, and what the streets around it are like.
What is Divi Tree Coffee?
Divi Tree Coffee is a coffee shop with a small kitchen in Point Pleasant Borough. The shop calls itself an artisan coffee company, and its tagline is three words long: Wake, Bake, Brew.
The beans come from suppliers that the shop says have hand-roasted coffee in small batches for four generations. Its lineup includes Direct Trade, Fair Trade, Certified Organic and Rainforest Alliance selections. You can stop in for a cup, take home a bag of beans, or order ahead through the order link on the Divi Tree Coffee website and pick it up.
Where does the name Divi Tree come from?
The name comes from Aruba. Joe has vacationed on the island since he was a young child, and Joe and Maylon took their first vacation together there. They have gone back every year since.
The divi tree is the native tree of Aruba, according to the shop. It often grows on exposed stretches of coast, and the trade winds bend its trunk and limbs as it grows. The owners took the name for the shop from that tree.
What's on the menu at Divi Tree Coffee?
The roasts come first. The menu lists a House Blend, a medium and dark roast blend with coffees from Colombia, Costa Rica and Guatemala. Dark Velvet is a dark roast blend. The Ethiopian Sidamo Guji and the Sumatra are single-origin coffees, and the Sumatra is USDA Organic and Fair Trade certified. The Tiger Stripe Reserve Espresso is Rainforest Alliance certified, and the shop donates 15 cents for every pound sold to IFAW, the International Fund for Animal Welfare, to help protect wild tigers.
The coffee bar covers espresso, drip coffee in 12, 16 and 20 ounce sizes, pour over, cold brew and nitro cold brew. It also makes lattes, cappuccinos, caramel macchiatos, mocha lattes, chai, matcha and bulletproof coffee, most of them hot or iced. Soy, almond, coconut and oat milk are on the extras list.
Not a coffee drinker? The menu has loose leaf tea, fresh brewed iced tea and hot chocolate. There are frozen frapps, like Peppermint Mocha and Frozen Hot Chocolate, and smoothies, like the Funky Monkey with chocolate, peanut butter and banana, or the Pink Colada with strawberry, pineapple and coconut milk.
The food menu runs until 2 p.m. Breakfast sandwiches come on a sweet roll, and pork roll, egg and cheese is on the list next to bacon and sausage. There are bagels and a row of toasts on 7-grain bread: avocado toast with an over easy egg, almond butter toast with bananas and strawberries, Nutella toast, and a balsamic fig toast. For lunch, the menu lists a chicken salad sandwich and a tuna croissant.
What should you know before you go?
The shop's website lists the same hours seven days a week, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. The coffee bar runs all day, but the kitchen stops serving food at 2 p.m., so plan a late breakfast before then.
Coffee for a group comes in a Box of Joe, which the menu lists at $19.00 for 96 ounces, or twelve 8-ounce cups. Beans by the pound come in your choice of grind, at $9.00 for a half pound or $18.00 for a pound, according to the menu page read in November 2026. Menus and prices change, so check the shop's site before you order for a crowd.
The address, 2615 Bridge Avenue, is in Point Pleasant Borough, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's address lookup. Point Pleasant and Point Pleasant Beach are separate towns that share the 08742 ZIP code, so a mailing address alone won't tell you which one you're in.
What are the streets and homes like around Bridge Avenue?
Point Pleasant is an Ocean County borough on the Manasquan River. The Point Pleasant Canal, completed in 1924, divides the borough in half, and drivers cross it on the Route 88 and Lovelandtown bridges. Borough Hall is on Bridge Avenue too, at 2233 Bridge Avenue.
Community Park on Bridge Avenue hosts the borough's holiday tree lighting. It has two softball fields, a soccer field, a playground, a one-third-mile walking path and a nature trail. Beaver Dam Creek County Park, an Ocean County park at Bridge Avenue and Route 88, has a boardwalk through tidal wetlands.
The homes around the borough vary by neighborhood. Lovelandtown, east of the canal and south of Bridge Avenue, was the first community settled in the area, and its oldest remaining house dates to 1850. In Sunshine Harbor, MLS-based records show homes built from 1950 to 2018, with 2 to 5 bedrooms, and most homes have private docks or direct water access. Bay Head Shores mixes three-bedroom ranches of about 1,300 to 1,500 square feet with newer two-story homes of four or five bedrooms.
