Nice place right on the main street in Essex. The cashier was very friendly. I was one of only 3 people in the place at first. It all went well until the barista decided to make the 5 drinks for the guy who came in after me first. It appeared that the customer was friends with the people working. Shouldn't have happened. I can only hope it was an oversight and not a blatant jump over a customer.

Nothing like a good cup of joe. The owner roasts his own coffee, it’s a good brew!

Great coffee (I got the dark roast) and hot chocolate, amazing village vibe and colonial architecture. Essex is great in general and worth a trip.
Parking: There is a public parking lot up the street to the west.

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!
Couldn’t wait to try this sweet looking place.The man who waited on us couldn’t be colder. He was unaccommodating and very unfriendly.Anything we asked him, he gave us one word answers, we were on our own. The coffee was decent, and the cake that they have shipped in, was subpar.

Comfortable, small shop on the main street in historic Essex. Coffee from the carafe, 2$, very good deal. Lemon cake was awesome. Custom coffees are available as well. Only 5 or 6 tables inside. Parking easy on the street.Definitely recommend for a stop while walking around the very old town.
Nice selection of coffee and bakery items.
