“Awesome best around!! Great service and large variety!!“

“Had dinner at Gather 55 last night and it was the most pleasant dining experience and best food I’ve had in months! Crystal’s service was excellent! She is a master at her craft! Not only was the experience worth every penny, the mission and purpose of Gather 55 is wonderful! I wish we had one in TN!“

“We had our wedding at The Pond House Café and it was absolutely beautiful. The ceremony and reception were everything we hoped for. Our guests loved the food, the décor, the music, and the warm, welcoming vibe. The staff went above and beyond—Charlene, Diana, and Alissa took care of us with so much care and professionalism. Everything ran smoothly and felt special. We’re so thankful for the whole team. This will definitely be our go-to spot for future celebrations! 1000000/10 experience!!“

“The Spot Café truly lives up to its name it hits the spot every time. You can tell there’s real love and care put into the food, from the presentation to the flavor. The cafe is welcoming, making you feel like a regular from the moment you walk in. It may be a small space, but it delivers big on quality and experience. This place is definitely a hidden gem in East Hartford.“

“With the move just down the street, Beanz and Co & The NE pasta co transformed itself to another level. The place is spacious and the atmosphere is friendly and inviting. In addition to the main dining area, There are three separate seating areas: a room with comfy seats for a small group of talkers, a back room for a quieter setting and a third room perfect for a work meeting or small group of friends or couples.

I love the inclusion of staff with challenges, otherwise may not have this positive opportunity. 💜

The catering is great; I’ve taken home a number of delicious family meals.

The restaurants are run by family and friends creating a place like home. They are always nice and friendly.🌹

I can vision this business holding events in the evening, such as family celebrations or book clubs or small bands.

Naturally I highly recommend a visit to this establishment. It won’t be your last.🌺“

“a Nurse at Uconn health Nicu recommended here. service and food is out of this world definitely will be back.“

“Honestly a GEM of a restaurant and a place that I will return going as long as they are open. Food was superb and a great menu , it will be tough for parking I think because it is in downtown Hartford. But hell I dont care because the food is that good, so the plan is to order food to eat inside and order to take out for next day, great job guys, coming back soon!!!!“

“This coffee shop is so much more than a place to grab a drink. It is like a community living room. Warm, creative, and welcoming in the most genuine way. There are art supplies to sit and create, free books to borrow, and games to play. It’s a place that invites you to slow down, connect, and stay awhile. The cold brew I had today was absolutely amazing…..smooth, rich, and clearly made with care. Even more meaningful was the experience with the owner. Her kindness, authenticity, and passion shine through in every detail of this space. You can feel how much heart has gone into building something that truly serves the community. I’m so grateful to my son and his girlfriend for encouraging us to stop in after a UConn game, what a gift that recommendation was. Places like this are rare, and they matter. If you love small businesses, creativity, connection, and spaces that bring people together, please show up and support this one. Bring a friend. Stay for a while. Make it part of your routine. Convenient to the XL Center, Yard Goats, downtown, and right off the highway. Closed Mondays, open all other days — plan your visit and don’t miss it. Support this local gem. Our community needs places like this. ☕️📚🖌️🥰“

“I’m literally only giving it 5 stars because the old owner Harvey was a good guy and very business savvy. He knew my name and what I always wanted. And he connected with his customers. And that kept a HUGE clientele.

The new owners don’t know my name and are unfriendly. They are not exactly cheap and I still support. It’s a nice spot in town. Residents in West Hartford frequent there. It would be nice for them to be friendly, adaptable, relatable, down to earth and get to know their regulars who support them.

I personally will try to continue to support.

Let’s hope it’s only up from here! (Please get to know your customers!)“

“I went in this morning for a pound of medium roast decaf and a quick espresso. They have an excellent interior that was nice to relax in for a few minutes before rushing off. The staff member was also super friendly. Great neighborhood too. They were carrying a limited edition run of a anaerobic process light roast from Rwanda, so I bought a bag out of curiosity. This is currently the best coffee I have ever brewed. It tastes sweet and like apples! I am really glad that they were carrying this today!“

“Very impressed! Food was amazing! Great atmosphere. Will definitely be going back.“

“Everything was perfect!“

“Our favorite coffee place in the area!“

“U must try it !! Great food great vibe !!“

“I love DoNo! It's the best part of my day when I find time to take a walk or drive over and get my daily latte, espresso, or tea. They also just upped their game with an awesome sandwich menu!!“

“Top self food, love it! Staff is friendly and accommodating. It’s a must visit 👍🏻“

“Usually don’t post reviews right away but this sandwich made me. Held me at gun point and told me to give this cafe a 5 star rating because I was enjoying it so much. Literally best breakfast sandwich I’ve ever had, not a breakfast person but I am now“

“First timer here. The atmosphere was awesome. Sat at the bar and watched motoGP. I ordered the brisket egg rolls and they FAR exceeded my expectations. Crispy crunch, sweet, salty, umami. It hit every taste bud on my tongue. My husband got the brisket grilled cheese and it was out of this world good. Perfectly balanced. Not too much bbq sauce, right amount of cheese and a nice crisp bread. The tater tots were perfectly fried and salted. They were so good we didn't even need ketchup. We will for sure be back.“

“The Mater Jam sandwich is incredible! I've only been here twice, but both times, everything was superb. Both the chai and matcha are wondeful (no pre-packaged syrups like here!) Atmosphere is relaxing and laid-back. A great addition to Windsor!“

“Really good, quick food. Got oxtail curry , vegetarian tofu type of dish (That had a little bit of spice) , cabbage (so yummy!), and rice and peas. The guy that helped me was very nice. (In case you’re looking , they don’t have roti. Not many places do ☹️). And reasonably priced. Would definitely go back.“

“I stopped in for a tea at Beanz and Co today, I was so excited for the gluten free options. I took the time to walk over to the Pasta company part of the store and took home some of the delicious gluten free options that they had premade. There aren’t many places that have premade gluten free food so I was relieved to know I wouldn’t have to cook for the next few nights. I heated up the bbq pulled pork in the break room at work and had several people ask me what I had for dinner because it smelled so good! Everyone greets you there with warm smiles, it was a great experience and I can’t wait to go back.“

“I tried the garlic parmesan chicken tenders, yum! My co-workers got an Italian Grinder, but for the faint of heart. it was HUGE! and my other did the Chicken Cesar Wrap again HUGE! Very friendly staff!“

“I'm new to Hartford Connecticut I've lived here less than a year. I also don't really drink ever. Lately I've wanted to be social so I check this place out. The people I've met here for the most part are really great people easy to talk to and it's a laid-back place. I really like it here I think you might too. 😁“

“Chef's table is always delicious and they change their menu's weekly if not more often. Wide variety, wonderful staff, and great vegetarian options.“

“This place has been around as long as I can remember. Always a good time. Enjoy the special dinners they have. Prices are reasonable and they have regular Bud on tap.Enjoy the pool table. I did food service for most of my life. This place is amazing cleaned. The owner definitely takes pride in his bar.“

“Great bagels but my local big y never puts them out with the other bread , they hide them in the freezer, I have to ask the bakery person to get some for me , very odd can’t see how they are going to make a sale that way , Danielson ct big y“

“relaxed but European vibe, more variations of espresso drinks than I've encountered in the area. A place you want to sit and stay a while. Today, awesome Andorran music playing.“

“The service is what you would expect at any fast food restaurant, nothing exceptional. I ordered the greek chicken salad. Unfortunately, there was more greens than chicken for the price, they could add more chicken to it, seeing that it is a chicken salad after all.“

“Great COSTOMER service and the staff was friendly“

“Jersey girl here that stumbled upon this place on my way into Connecticut for my son’s football game yesterday. I think I had one of the best bagel sandwiches I’ve ever had in my life- and I’m certain it was the best jalapeño cheddar bagel of my life. What a gem this find was, too bad I don’t live closer. The customer service was impeccable and the owner or manager (I think) was very gracious to this traveling Jersey girl with the weekend rules! Not to mention, very easy on the eyes 😉 lol. I feel so many people are ready to rush to complain about things at places they don’t like so I felt the need to make a comment and compliment on something that was great! 😊 Great place- definitely worth the wait“

“bring back the lobster roll.“

“Amazing coffee and phenomenal food.“
