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!!“

“Great coffee, loved the atmosphere“

“I’ve been going to this place for about a year now and even though I’ll be moving further away this year, I will do my best to make it back any time I’m in town. Coffee is always 11/10, the food is better than any coffee shop / cafe I’ve ever been to, and the baristas & staff are very friendly and welcoming.“

“Amazing!!! Had the best grinders that I have ever had in CT. We recently went on a field trip with CREC and they gave us grinder options from Harvey's. The sandwiches were unique and delicious. By the lack of talking on the bus, it sounded to me that everyone enjoyed their grinder.“

“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!“

“Everything was 10/10!!! All of the staff was attentive, including the bartender who came from behind the bar to assist the waitresses when it got busy. He also made my first espresso martini sweet, just how I like my iced coffees. Will be back again for brunch!“

“I’ve been wanting to try this place and happened to be able to today. I ordered the Harry Potter themed roast beef crepe and Dragons Breath hibiscus refresher. Both were delicious! Great service and ambiance. We will be back! #supportlocal“

“Such a welcoming and inviting atmosphere! The service is great and the pastries and mocktails are delicious!!“

“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!“

“I ordered a lemon-flavored birthday cake with buttercream frosting. The cake was made with the freshest of ingredients, was moist, and was absolutely DELICIOUS!!! Everyone commented on how flavorful the cake was, but the artistic talent of the baker/decorator took centerstage!!! The cake was so beautiful, we didn’t want to cut into it!!! If you decide to order a cake from Sweet Harmony you will not be disappointed!!!“

“Great little coffee shop. Sit down next to the “fireplace” with a snack. The gals that work here are always so nice. 😊“

“Maui colada was so refreshing“

“Our favorite coffee place in the area!“

“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!!“

“This is an old school greasy spoon diner literally hidden on Franklin Ave. This is cooking from your favorite uncle or granddad. Home style cooking for those who don't want to cook at home. Short order cook on the grill happens to be the owner. The menu is the stuff diner legends are based on. It has nothing gourmet. It isn't long. There's nothing promising to be a new twist on am ole favorite. It is the old favorite, just the way you fell in love with it: with pork, full fat, salty, and all the calories.
Cute place. Aged and tidy. Pleasant wait staff. Quick and good cook.
They only take cash. The entire antique experience is only heightened by that limitation.“

“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.“

“Everything was perfect!“

“Paul Gregory's is amazing. It is a truly family run business that treats YOU like you are family. They have hosted/catered many events for us and each time our guests are blown away by the delicious food and attention to detail. Theresa is personable and knowledgeable and her daughter is an award winning chef. Whether you have your event on-site or off-site, they will take care of everything from appetizers to desserts. Their in-house baker makes the most delicious cakes that are beautifully decorated. Each time she has exceeded my expectations! You can't go wrong no matter if you just want a delicious Sunday breakfast, Saturday lunch, or elegant event, they have you covered!“

“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. ☕️📚🖌️🥰“

“Sandwiches here are out of this world. Overstuffed, freshly quickly prepared, & served up in a jiffy. Side orders like cole slaw & potato salad are well prepped & very tasty. Service is outstanding, fast & cheerfully done. Another thing I appreciate is frozen mugs, Well Done Bud's.....“

“I had a Vanilla bubble tea and my wife had a strawberry tea and they were delicious. We also had the pork and beef dumplings. This place is a hidden gem.“

“Excellent service and delicious food👍🏼“

“Not many vegan options... The only protein option they have for sandwiches is hummus, and most of the time they don't have any in stock! Pretty disappointing to drive all the way there to realize they don't have anything you want to eat. All the other food is good, if a little pricey. Yummy smoothies and soup“

“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.“

“A neighborhood spot that is often quiet but has its busy nights. Good drinks, good prices, and really good food for a bar. Mixed crowd but of the older persuasion. Wouldn't recommend for a very young crowd. Definitely 30 and older. Avoid Monday nights though. There is one bartender who only cares about tips and never about good service.“

“The best place ever, they have a great delicious breakfast and lunch, the personal stuff are so nice and very polite people, my husband and I love that place!! ❤️“

“If you want to have a unique and cozy experience, you should definitely visit this place… Pleasant atmosphere and truly exceptional food. Hygiene, flavor, and good prices throughout. I will definitely be back soon… Anyone who says otherwise is mistaken.“

“The place is amazing!! Never had omelettes like that anywhere. Everything is excellent. And the service was great. You will NOT be disappointed. Great little spot.“

“Atendimento bom, ambiente agradável, cardápio variado e os bolos recheados são maravilhosos! Super recomendo!“

“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. 😁“

“Excelente es mi lugar favorito para comer. Loco que hagan uno en PR.“

“First time going to Stryker’s - came to see the fabulous duo/ band- had a wonderful meal with fabulous service- honestly not a place I would have normally gone to but everything was wonderful and we will definitely be back- great food, amazing service and fun night of music and really good food“

“Great COSTOMER service and the staff was friendly“

“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 service and great food 🇯🇲♥️“

“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.“
