Cafes near Hamden

“Awesome empanadas and great food“

“We stumbled upon this place and the owner was amazing and welcomimg. The bartenders were just as pleasant and friendly. We stayed and ended up enjoying our entire evening there and felt like family by the time we left. We couldn't leave before enjoying Chaz's delicious food... The fish platter is a must try! We have definitely added this on our list of places we will frequent when needing a nice drink and great atmosphere.“

“I ate in this place for a years. It was next to the school where I worked. So I would order a healthy snack or breakfast and walk over to get it. Until I saw a moldy blueberry, I don’t eat there for a least a few months. Then my kids wanted some, so I always ordered family meal, 4 half sandwiches, 1 large soup and a salad sure feed all 5 of us. I can always order ahead at this place. Food is fast and fresh. Good Panera.“

“Unique atmosphere with fabulous, diverse drinks.“

“The staff is so great, They have so many great drinks and treats to offer.. I definitely recommend this coffee shop and it’s a great to place to hang out! 👍“

“Feels like an Arab home-cooked meal. Authentic food, great music, amazing and kind service.

Also an amazing place to just sit and do work while drinking Turkish coffee and enjoying baklava.

They also do an outstanding thing for the community helping train refugees and helping them find employment or build businesses.“

“The bees is a hidden gem! The atmosphere is the best and the food is always spot on. Highly recommend“

“1st visit. Ordered take out & grabbed a coffee during the brief wait. Service was efficient & friendly. Establishment was clean & welcoming. I deeply appreciate that they offer tofu. We ordered the “Vito” swapping chicken out for tofu & the “Cypress Garden” sandwiches… both were delicious. The prices were reasonable for the high quality of the ingredients. One was $10 the other $12 & this price even included choice of side: pasta salad, apple or chips. We chose the lemon basil pasta salad & it was just as delicious as the sandwich’s. Thank you…you’ve won this customer over for sure!“

“Dining at The Luke is a truly special experience thanks to Vincent Chirico, the restaurant's chef/owner who makes sure that every guest feels welcome. The food is inventive, adventurous, and delicious—and surprisingly affordable for such sumptuous cuisine. We've been twice and greatly look forward to the next time.“

“I always get their skinny lattes. ☕️☕️☕️ Delicious! Plus bagel with cream cheese & lox! Looking forward to trying various wines! 🍷🍷🍷“

“I love G Cafe. Their cronuts (croissant donuts) are the best thing that I have ever eaten in my life. Get them warmed to make them extra delicious. And the coffee is so amazing as well! I love the milk and sugar bar that lets you fix it just how you like it. The service is always excellent. I have two little gripes: this place is expensive! Definitely not an every-day kind of coffee shop, at least for me. And secondly, the seating could definitely be better (actual tables and chairs), and there is no wi-fi. The latter is not really an issue for me, because I always get my cronuts and coffee to-go. Or perhaps, these aspects are why I get them to-go... Overall, you should definitely go to G Cafe and try their world-famous cronuts. Other items I like to indulge in are the cinnamon rolls (so unbelievably good), ham and cheese croissants, or either of the quiches.“

“Best place to sit in town and enjoy coffee and pastries. Beautiful ambience and friendly staff. Love going here!!“

“We had the most wonderful meal and experience at NewBrook Kitchen for my sister’s birthday. Probably some of the best food I have ever had. Highly recommend booking an event or joining one of the cooking classes! Thank you Danielle and Natalie, you guys were amazing!“

“Very welcoming atmosphere with an upbeat vibe, very tasty teas & a variety to choose from.“

“Just a lovely little place with excellent food and services. Drinks are as well very delicious.

Parking: It has other parking lots in the branford.

Kid-friendliness: They have drinks that are not just caffeine. Like Ice tea.

Wheelchair accessibility: Its easy to get to.“

“Fabulous Greek Salad!!!!!“

“Best place with the best people and the drinks are great!“

“Common Grounds in Branford is my “Go to” every day after my workouts. I meet with friends for coffee and spirited conversation, and see a lot of people I know….and I always make new friends! The staff is AMAZING and I love the owners! Great vibe and the BEST JAVA on the planet. And the wraps…..YUMMY!!!! Thank you!!“

“Bowl=AMAZING Staff= VERY FRIENDLY AND PATIENT Will definitely be returning!!“

“Jonathan and his team did an amazing job for my wife’s surprise birthday party. Signature cocktail for the event. Great selection of food and desserts. Everyone raved about the experience. My wife was absolutely impressed.“

“Had state street for the first time today after a hockey game. It was super busy but they quickly got us seated nonetheless. The food was SO GOOD. Well worth the price! The siracha maple syrup is FANTASTIC.“

“people are friendly food is. good good. serves“

“Came to do trivia visiting from San Diego, CA. I gotta say what a good time! They have great food, greater drinks and impeccable service. Our server was Michelle and she was fantastic! We ordered the fish and chips and the turkey sub with fries. Both were delightful! We came in last place for trivia and got a consolation prize! ? Great times, good food, good people. Highly recommend for a casual night out for food and drinks!“

“The woman working was super sweet and let me call in my order and even brought it out to me since I had two toddlers sound asleep and didn’t want to wake them up. Completely recommend“

“One of my favorite spots , been going there for 35 years . Everyone that works there is amazing . Love the Owner Todd , and miss Lenny“

“I adore this place. Get the Two Eggs platter and the Jasmine Grapefruit Coffee Soda. It is also, surprisingly, the best G and T I've ever had in New Haven. I've been coming here for three years and never had a bad anything. If I still lived down the street, I'd still be coming here a few times a week. Super nice staff too which is increasingly hard to find.“

“When we got there the line was pretty long, but didn't have to wait long as there were plenty of staff taking orders so we moved through the line quickly. Waiting on drinks and food took a little longer but it was completely understandable as it was quite busy.....food and coffee were delicious, would definitely recommend and would return if in the area!“

“Loved the atmosphere, the fantastic customer service, the food, and the coffee. Would absolutely go back.“

“This is an update to my April review. I have been back since then and happy to say my order was correct. Lina was gracious with an apology. I am glad that things have gotten back to normal. I do love their food.“

“The lady who took our order was very friendly and patient. She was very nice. There are a variety of food and drink options. We ordered a chai, raspberry iced tea and a lavender chai with dragon fruit. They were so good!!!! And the food was delicious too!! So yummy. Will definitely be coming back again :))
Best chai I have tried yet!
The cafe is also super cute and has lovely decoration.
I will be recommending to my friends. If you are reading this review, do come! You won't regret it!!
Thank you to the staff! Have a nice day! “

“Been to Tommy Sullivan’s many times love the atmosphere friendly servers decent prices my sister love the calamari said it was the best she had ever had I enjoyed the Portabella stuffed just wish they had more vegetarian items to choose from“

“😋Always love coming here. Big Menu. Delicious Pizza. 😋“

“The cafe stood on a quiet street. It was in an old house. The walls were white. At night, lights shone through the windows.

Inside, it was warm. People sat at small tables. Some were alone. Some talked with friends. The wood floors creaked.

Outside, there were chairs on the sidewalk. The air was cool. You could drink coffee and watch people walk by.

The sign said OPEN in red letters. It was bright against the dark.

The coffee was good. The food was simple. You could sit for hours. No one would bother you.

It was a good place to think. Or to forget. Or to meet someone. The cafe was there if you needed it.“

“The best coffee in town! They care about where and how the coffee is sourced!“

“I like Dante's Inferno and the Columbian dark roast. The cafe boasts lovely natural lighting and essentially, the cafe is a large solarium. The cafe plays classic soul music most of the time. It's good for a quick bite. The KBT dining staff are always lovely and they roast their own beans.“
