From the Odyssey web site.
Odyssey web site

Three things are facts: I now know how to spell “Odyssey; the owners of Odyssey Coffee Shop do intend to open at some time in the future; and they have a web site: Odysseycoffee.net
On that web site it says:
“Odyssey Coffee will bring you top notch coffee, espresso, and tea – and the Jersey Shore’s freshest, most tastiest baked wonders. We’ll have a laid back yet efficient vibe so you can get in and out quickly if that’s your m.o., or stay put with your face in a book.”
“In my other life, as a scholar and teacher of Classics I’ve spent lifetimes in vibrant, vigorous coffeehouses filled with plants and ideas and chatter and sometimes silence — and these are the gifts that Odyssey Coffee will give Ocean Grove.”
The proprietors are a family from Ohio, now of OG—the Lipps. The patriarch is Joey–a college professor. So if you want to go there for a cup of Joey, you must show him your SAT scores.
We also know that Joey Lipp appreciates the visual arts: This is from his web site. They are the Sirens from the Odyssey. They lure men who go to sea in ships. So men, if you want to meet girls like these, get yourself a ship* and some will power.
*Note: I learned in the Navy never to call a ship a boat.
We are hoping to get some more specifics from Joey Lipp. It’s time to come out of the closet and provide the folks from OG with more specifics.
And hopefully Joey will bring the Sirens with him, to lure Grovers out of a deep winter sleep.

It opens tomorrow.
After the Main Avenue fire, #50 lost the right as a commercial space. It requires 3,600 square feet for commercial.
Before this (coffee shop) commercial use is permitted, it will require several variances. The three Township attorneys know it, and the zoning official knows it.
This is just more corruption by our Township officials.
The Lipps are a wonderful family with long-time roots in Ocean Grove.
