Coffee Shops near Northford

“Your employee Isaac treated us very respectful and made me the best Dublin sandwich I have ever had. Originally I was planing on pretending to slip near your bathroom because the floor was wet and sue you. But then Isaac made me a bomb sandwich and I decided I would not“

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

“Was visiting New Haven last weekend (from Brooklyn) and had the pleasure of eating at Olmo not once, not twice, but three times!! For breakfast, every morning of my visit. The bagels so good, the menu so mouthwatering, the people so kind and welcoming— I couldn’t stay away! And I’m still thinking about it a week later…

The first morning I got the Hot Pastrami. It is, and i cannot stress this enough, DELICIOUS! A generous helping of pastrami—rivaling that of Katz Deli—paired with a mind-blowingly yummy spinach-artichoke schmear and some pickled onions sandwiched between a sesame seed bagel. Cannot recommend enough.

The next morning I had to try a new schmear (the schmear selection is thrilling). I went with beet and dill veggie on an onion bagel. Crunchy, refreshing, sweet. Yum.

I am a creature of habit so, despite my desire to try the basil feta schmear, the third morning I went with the Hot Pastrami again. Turns out lightning can strike twice, it was just as delish the second time.

This is a place that clearly loves their clientele and their craft. They were communicative, efficient, and so friendly. You immediately feel welcome. A must visit for any bagel lover who finds themself in New Haven!!“

“Wallingford has so many choices when it comes to coffee, my choice is the Green Kettle, thanks and keep brewing the best coffee in town!“

“Amazing fresh juices! Love the variety of flavors.“

“The new owners have added some new items that made me really excited to try this place. We loved the butterfly pea syrup added to the lychee lemonade! The color change is really fun to watch. This place gets SLAMMED on the weekends so a 20-30 min wait is pretty reasonable for a place with a line wrapped around the building. The food was so tasty and fresh and we loved the maple butter with our chicken and waffles. Its such a close spot to both the bike trail and Sleeping Giant so we'll definitely be stopping by after our next adventure.“

“this place is just amazing. I'm not even really a coffee drinker but here everything I've had has been delicious. Top notch stuff every time. If you're not going here you're missing out“

“Cute little coffeeshop with very good coffee“

“I love the egg and cheese sandwiches from Neil’s. Very good“

“Good espresso and friendly service“

“I would’ve thought that a video rental store wouldn’t last very long in the age of on demand streaming. But what if you want to watch an old silent film? Or An obscure foreign film? Or maybe you still have a VCR hanging around & you don’t know what to do with it. Well, BEST VIDEO & CULTURAL CENTER is the place for you. They have a mind shattering huge archive of movies. There is also a coffee bar that serves all types of coffee & tea as well as beer & wine. I do believe I have found a new happy place! The employees are very friendly & super knowledgable about films of all genres. I’d highly recommend that you stop by & check it out. After 1 visit you’ll probably become a happy regular customer.“

“Good coffee and pastries, and good people. Great place to relax.“

“Midpoint is one of those cute coffee shops one can find all over. This branch in the heart of the historic district is a nice touch. The couple of times I have been here, I found the coffee to be quite satisfactory. My one regret was in both occasions, I was in a hurry, and had to make my visit a quick in and out. I definitely loved the pastries I had. They hit the spot.

“Cora was exquisite and so hardworking managing the front and serving our drinks with a smile while the place was busy. They are lucky to have such a hardworking young woman represent the company! Good drinks too!“

“My husband and I were in town in business, googled “best coffee place nearby”, and Cantean popped up with excellent reviews. We were charmed by the easy, comfortable vibe walking in, and by the friendly greeting we received. We decided to share a sandwich, which turned out to be substantial and scrumptious: plenty of ham and Brie with a nice thick layer of fresh spinach, on a wonderful Peasant bread. John got coffee, and I had a beautiful matcha latte, finishing things off with a couple of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. Everything was beautifully prepared and wrapped, with the perfect number of napkins included, at a very reasonable price. We very much enjoyed the experience at Cantean Coffee and Tea, and happily recommend it to everyone!“

“My wife and I tried Le Jardin for the first time today for lunch. We highly recommend the 2 Panini choices. The Cubano and the Chicken Pesto Panini were delicious. The americano coffee was a perfect add on.“

“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!!“

“Very enjoyable outside setting at Belle Vie! Just lovely. From the friendly staff whom immediacy greeted us upon arrival to tbe owner who made a special trip outdoors after personally cooking our crepes in the kitchen. We tried their chicken pesto crepe w/ tomato and spinach- absolutely delicious ! And also the salmon, cream cheese, tomato, caper, red onion crepe. Yum! We also sampled their lattes both hot and cold brew and a marvelous bacon cheddar biscuit warmed up and buttered ! They have sweet crepes as well and many non- crepe options. This Cafe will not disappoint! A beautiful menu with many selections of fresh, health conscious choices as well as some slightly more indulgent pasterie options! ( and a few more diet aware pastries as well! ) Belle Vie Cafe has everything you need! … And with a great vibe , too!!! Give it a go. You’ll be back! ) Don't forget to take a stroll along the Guilford Green just a block away offering weekend events and other shops and eateries to check out ! Very picturesque. )“

“they have coffee and stuff“

“So many yummy coffee and treat options; everything we got was really good! ☕️🥐“

“Love love love this place. I have spent so many hours hanging out here. In the morning it’s so fun to come sit on the couch and read a book — the coffee is delicious! And the coffee menu is really cool and fun. Any latte here is a win. And Hanna is the most incredible and friendliest barista!! It’s also a really fun vibe in the afternoon to come for a beer and hangs. They have vegetarian options for food usually and a great food truck outside. I am all about aesthetic and this place crosses all the t’s and dots all the i’s. My new go-to spot!!“

“I enjoyed my crepe today and the pricing is great.“

“Fresh roasted coffee beans!!’ A different roasted flavor daily ☕️ AND great service with a smile 😊“

“Best coffee shop in the neighborhood. Friendly but fast service, yummy food, good music in background. Cozy. It's a keeper! Ps: their lavender lemonade is the ultimate summer drink)“

Parking: You can park in front plenty of parking the day o visited.“

“We celebrated Margot’s bday here this morning and Wilson the owner made it extra special for us by showing us how the coffee beans were ground and also let Lisa take the wheel - we had a blast!“

“This was my very first time in this one particular and I was very much impressed with its cleanliness, elegance, and a majority of the presentation of their baked goods. 4 out of 5!!!! I’m terribly sorry that you lost a star but that matcha brownie tasted absolutely disgusting. Never again will I buy it!!! Sorry sweetheart but it’s lacking sugar. However I do love the sweet cream filled bread you sold me. Thank you very much for helping me figure out what I want for breakfast tomorrow. Lastly, the cream green tea cake was absolutely divine. All this from being served by an incredibly gorgeous and really cashier/manager who I had to tip handsomely. I’ll definitely stop by on payday to give their specialty caffeinated drinks a try.“

“My favorite coffee shop. I go to Waterbury location. Friendly staff, comfortable sitting area. And the french toast chai—oh my!!!“

“Great wait staff Food was delish“

“Vegetarian options: Great atmosphere and decor behind the Graduate Hotel Lobby. They nailed 1920s Yale/New Haven. Great Gatsby-ish. Large wood-paneled cozy backroom library for studying w/ coffee. Excellent chai latte, croissants, and quick oatmeal“

“Very nice workers here!! Very fast and friendly service!!“

“I just went to DD and I dropped my phone in the driver drive-through and there was a Spanish kid in the drive-through that picked up my phone off the ground and he was so helpful. I didn’t catch his name. However, I tried to call Duncan to talk to a supervisor to let them know that the kid in the drive-through was wonderful and his customer service was awesome, however the person that picked up the phone doesn’t speak any English and it was very rude. It was some lady and I don’t know her name but she was very rude. Other than that the dunkin is OK.“

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

“- A lot of people come in here to buy loaves of bread.
- I wish they had halal menu items offered here.
- The service here was very slow.
- hours of operation are limited (wish it was open later)
- Very limited coffee menu flavors & options. Overall drink menu needs improvement& variety.

The bread here is amazing, the egg and cheese was definitely fresh & cheesy. The everything crossaint was okay. The star of the show was the blueberry Cronut.
The lemonade was quite regular like boxed lemonade. Wouldn’t get twice.

The vibes here are nice, but it is expensive.
The food came out in pretty dishes which was nice for the vibe.“

“Great local spot! The staff are really accommodating, pleasant and knowledgeable, the shop is clean, the food & brews are delicious, the variety & brands are top-notch and reflect an understanding of coffee/tea purity and conscious consumerism. They give their clientele an excellent reason to “Love Our Local!!”“

“The owner was amazing. Talk to us the whole time we were there. Inside was immaculate. No crumbs no dirt. Everything was super clean even self serv coffee station. Food was bomb. Only one thing to improve was filling in my apple pie donut wasn’t enough for my liking. But the flavor was amazing. Will def be going back.“

“During lunch break from having to serve jury duty I found this coffee shop down the street and decided to pop in. The two behind the counter were very friendly and inviting, and the special grilled cheese with tomato or bacon with soup was PERFECT . the chicken corn chowder came out piping hot and didn't even need any salt or pepper. I'm usually skeptical when someone has to make my coffee instead of me doing it, but unlike dunkin donuts the gentleman made it just right! they seem to have a familiar and friendly customer fan base, and I would definitely go back again.“

“Ugh their food is so good & fresh ❤️ my fav ofcourse are their empanadas 😋 que ricooo ☺️“

“Ernest is awesome. He heard us talking about how we missed the Dunkaccino & made us a dupe that tasted perfect! Such a kind gesture & it made our morning. It’s rare to find customer service like that these days & it was much appreciated. We will absolutely be back, as we live in Durham, & look forward to seeing Ernest when we do! Cheers!“

“I love Fussy Coffee!!!

This place is a little out of the way from the Yale campus which I personally think is great. It's right next to the canal trail. When the university is in session, it can be very busy and hard to find a table at peak times like around lunch. The cafe is bright with very tall windows that let in lots of sunlight. There are several smaller tables, some high top seating, and 2 long communal tables. For those who want to do work with laptops, beware that there aren't that many outlets!

For beverages - I really like the coffee here. Their nitro cold brew is STRONG. They also have non-coffee drinks options. They often have interesting, seasonal special drinks. They also have alcoholic beverages, although I've never tried them myself personally.

For food, they have lots of great options and are vegan/vegetarian friendly. Their fries are probably their best known food item. I ask for them to be extra cripsy because sometimes they come out a bit soggy. Their sauces are great too.“

“Enjoying my Papua New Guinea brew this morning. Thanks Willoughby’s for bringing superb coffee to New Haven County!!!“

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

“Great atmosphere. Delicious ginger cookies. And refreshing drinks.“

“I work close by so I am at Cilantro several times a week... and as a self-proclaimed "foodie" I highly recommend this local hot spot for delicious coffee, super tasty chicken salad, raspberry/almond scones, "yoga" cookies, matcha cookies & their peanut butter/ coconut bites! I also frequently get their matcha or golden milk lattes, both are masterfully made & delicious either hot or cold!! I usually see Helen, but everyone there is also as friendly as she is and on-point with my order. Their in-store grocery treats and savory goodies are a delightful hand-picked selection that reminds regulars & travelers why they're a favorite local business & one to support and visit often!!“

“More expensive then other Dunkin’ Donuts. Will not go here again !!“

“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.“

“Love the coffee ❤️ and breakfast sandwiches“
