“Truly a gem. Owner shook my hand and said hello when I went in. He remembered me from the last time I went there over half a decade ago. Food was perfect, staff was kind. Eclectic and very fun!“

“I am not from this area, but I stumbled upon this little coffee shop in my travels. I was warmly greeted, and they took my order immediately (this was 11am so not a rush hour for a coffee shop) and they made me one of the best lattes I've ever had. Had great flavor, and was nice and hot. About the same price point as Starbucks, but worth every penny to support a local shop. I would recommend a stop here!“

“Cozy brunch of delectable, artfully plated French-inspired egg-related dishes, served piping hot by friendly and efficient staff. Good portion size and fair prices. We perused the French cuisine items for sale along the walls after eating. Also bought pastries and bread fresh from the OUTSTANDING bakery at the heart of the offerings. A Francophile's paradise! We'll DEFINITELY go back!“

“A non-descript shop that shares the building with an electronics repair store. Felt like going back in time! Went late morning on a weekday in mid-February. They were out of our favorites so had to settle for for other limited options. Service was OK but the inside could use a lot of work. It didn't feel dirty, but didn't feel clean either. Donuts were $2 each and decent. Definitely larger and better than DD. No oily or chemical taste, and cooked to a nice crisp. Filling was tasty, but not abundant and there was none in my first few bites.“

“Was traveling for work and stopped at this adorable little shop with a great purpose. The employees were warm and welcoming. There is plenty of room to work, enjoy time with family and friends, or eat. The ambiance is beautiful with lots of plants, activities, and great lighting. The cappuccino and bagel I ordered were both delicious!“

“Awesome ice cream . Had the death by chocolate Sundae was amazing !!“

“Really liked the name of this place, decided to check it out. Small little breakfast/lunch place. A lot of selections. Price is fair. Cash only. There is seating outside and on table with 2 chairs inside.This is more of a grab and go type of place for sandwiches. I had the ice coffee and was decent.“

“Best breakfast in the world“

“Love their soups & the avocado sandwich is my favorite!“

“In the charming downtown of Essex, CT is a little coffee shop located across the street from the historic Griswold Inn.The coffee quality is exceptional here. With beans from local coffee roasters you really can’t ask for more.The staff are very accommodating, and the cafe clean.This spot is truly a hidden gem if you haven’t discovered it yet, I’d recommend moving it to the top of your list!“

“Ashlawn is more than a just a good cafe - it’s a gathering place for locals and passerby alike. It evokes a warmth that other places just cant replicate. Ive shared conversations and caffeine with friends and family, and written dozens of papers aside the wood stove. I look forward to the art, poetry and music. Pro-tip: arrive before the 9am rush and grab a warm scone and a coffee for “here” (save a paper cup) and savor the ambiance.“

“My wife and I headed to Old Saybrook for Sunday breakfast. There are many options in the center, and this little place caught our eye - so we gave it a whirl, and we were not disappointed! The Nutty Joe Coffee ☕ is off the chain stupid delicious ?; we could drink cup after cup after cup... and still want another cup! I had a bacon, egg, and cheese on a bagel w hot sauce - spot on. My wife had perfectly poached eggs and a delicious banana muffin... no complaints. The gentleman working the grill was fantastic, and sitting outside was just the topper to our wonderful experience. If you haven't been, get there; you will not be disappointed.“

“This place has the best view and the best French toast and egg and cheese sandwiches the owner is a very nice person“

“This is the best chocolate that I ever enjoyed. I shared some with my friends and now they are hooked too!“

“I had some business to attend to in the area and didn't want to stay in a mediocre motel. The James Pharmacy was absolutely perfect! Monica was our liaison, and she was absolutely fabulous. Everything we needed was tended to. The rooms are beautiful. The restaurant downstairs, everything you would want. It is well appointed, clean, and quiet. The only thing I would warn is that the stairs are pretty treacherous. It would be very difficult if you have mobility her balance issues. I would 100% recommend people stay here.“

“If you read any reviews, read this one. I'm here all the time. I often work in a store in the same plaza, so I've seen them on their good days, and their bad days. But even on their worst days, this dunkin is STILL the best. I've lived and worked all around the state and regulared Colchester dunkins, Uncasville dunkins, hartford area dunkins. even as far out as derby dunkins. no dunkin matches this dunkin. The sandwich guy is 10/10, give him a raise. and the guy behind the counter is the perfect, level-headed person you need running an establishment like that. he takes a busy floor and makes it look slow and easy to manage, just by staying calm and operating at peak capacity. Ive also worked at dunkins throughout my younger life and i know how both easy and hard it is to do that job. my only complaint is that I'm unable to tip them. I hope you're paying them higher than Dunkins minimum if you're gonna do that, owners. because for the best dunkin employees to not be at a dunkin where they could get tipped, just tells me they should consider taking their excellent service skills to a casino dunkin, where they have the chance to make WAY more.“

“We LOVE Olive Oyl’s. In the 20 years we’ve lived in Tri-town, it’s our family go to at least once on the weekends. When the kids are home for school breaks throughout the year they frequent Olive Oyl’s several times a week. We love the vibe, the food, location, and especially Kevin and Jen! We are lucky to have such a great place so close to home!“

“The only Dunkin I will go to 1635 Boston post rd old saybrook. There is a girl who works there goes by the name of Katie/kate/Kaitlyn she has great customer skills. Always greets us with a smile. She makes us laugh. She is very nice. Always makes sure our order is right. Whatever you do give this girl a raise. It is so hard to find someone who has that much friendly customer service“

“Unfortunately, because of the bridge situation I can only visit on Thursday and Friday mornings and weekends. I would usually go there every weekday morning. I normally use the app and go inside to pick up my order. It saves me time, and everyone is always very pleasant and attentive. Anyway, some mornings like today they are short staffed, and I have to get on the drive through line. I don't know this until I arrive, park and get out of my car and walk to the doors to find they are locked. I can't cancel the order at this point, so I have to get on the drive through line. By then I have lost my place in line by three or more cars, and my order is cold. Please can you guys at least put one of those small plastic signs in the lot so that I know not to park and waste even more time. I have a one-hour drive ahead of me, so time is important to me. Better yet, why not install a pass-through box, so pick-up orders can be accessed even if the doors are locked. I spend thousands of dollars at Dunkin, and most of them at this branch. It is my go-to place for coffee and bagels. Love it...well most days anyway..“

“I pulled into a Dunkin Donuts right off of 95 early on a Sunday morning March 11, 2018. I had started my trip back to Virginia after an Emergency visit to my mom at the Middlesex Hospital. A dummy light on my dashboard indicated I had low tire pressure. The Toyota Dealership next door to the Dunkin was Closed. I had not had breakfast yet so I sought out the Dunkin. The employees there were THE BEST. While this very personable young lady took my order, she listened to my troub“

“Almost always has wonderful baristas working with lovely costumer service. The only downside is that if you mobile order and there is food in your order, they forget about that food item 9/10 times. But they are always happy to make it for you and offer to compensate you for the extra wait. So in all it’s one of the best Dunkin’s so go to around here!“
