First, you will not be disappointed with anything as this spot is geared to the hustle and bustle (and rare moment to relax) for commuters and residents alike in Downtown Hartford! Second, on a recent visit for a business lunch I was surprised at how few people were in the restaurant. Everything else - service, smiles, great food and selection, and WiFi were still in place. I ventured a conversation with Kevin (Owner, Chef, Mr. Many Hats) and learned that the post-COVID crowd had given way to remote work. Good for them, I guess, but an obvious void for downtown Hartford. Kevin shared with me his April 19, 2020 Take Five Cookery Blog - "My Covid Response". In it, and his eyes during our brief convo, I found the love and adoration of customers, staff, life itself,...through the eyes of a small business owner. I believe the article was published in the Boston Globe, but just ask him for it; he'll be happy to share. You will be "WOKE"! I could go on, but will end by saying, take a day or two to come into your downtown offices and remember to Take Five!

Ordered Veggie omelets and it was too pricey for the quality and quantity i got. $13 for a omelet (1 egg) and no sides (fries or toast) with it. Restaurants near by sells 2 eggs with lot of veggie omlete with home style fries for $8.00. And cleanliness of the chef making food is not satisfactory, no glove, no hat etc.. Dont recommend this place at all.

This is "The Best Little Restaurant" in Hartford for Breakfast, Lunch or Specialty Orders to Bring Home for the Holidays. You do not have to be in the Gold Building to enjoy Take 5 Cookery, it is absolutely worth the walk in town or drive into Hartford.

Solid breakfast place. I've worked downtown for almost 2 years and it still surprises me how many people don't know about Take Five! I come here for breakfast a couple of times a month and usually get a BEC on a hard roll. Everything is cooked fresh and to your liking. You can add toppings as well. In addition to breakfast sandwiches and omelettes, they've got a fruit bar, yogurt, cereal, and some other options for you. The chefs always have smiles on their faces and the people at the checkout ask your name and how your day is going.

Today I ordered the California Turkey Club. The sandwich was huge and had a generous serving of turkey, bacon and cheese as well as avocado salsa. The chef was attentive and willing to modify if I wanted. Everyone was very helpful. Kudos the Team.

I stopped in for a quick snack. This place has the worst blueberry muffins I’ve ever had the displeasure of eating. I threw most of it away.

Keisha was awesome and incredibly helpful. The staff are very friendly and service oriented, and the food was great!Also! I love spicy things and my girlfriend hates them, but we both loved the chipotle sauce they have there. It’s sweet with a little heat and definitely worth trying.
Looking for some good food come check out this place
