Obsessed with this adorable spot in downtown Shelton! I talked to the owner who was so nice, and they’re super dog friendly so seeing all of the pups really brightened my day. It’s one of those spots where almost everyone is a regular and they all know each other, so it felt very community oriented! My fiancé and I grabbed a sunny table near the window and had such a delicious breakfast of avocado toast and the George’s sandwich with our coffees. I really liked the iced pumpkin one I had! I will definitely be keeping this spot in mind for future trips to downtown Shelton!

I was looking for a place to let me pup run off some energy and spoted this coffee joint on my way the next day i had to try them out and man was i happy i did. I received a medium 2 shot Latte w/ almond milk and a sprinkle of cinnamon and holy smokes it brought me back to my favorite coffee place I would frequent back in my day in Litchfield @ the conner and this place nailed it. The coffee made me smile from my first sip truly perfection in a cup. This is just what the shelton area needed i cant wait to come back you all are amazing and have a successful future ahead see you soon:)

This place is cute & has great customer service. The coffee is good. I love their avocado tomato pesto toast! Great place to get out of the house for a little if you work remotely. The only negative, there is not a ton of seating.

LOVED THIS PLACE!!! We found ourselves in Shelton and in need of lunch. This spot was such an amazing find! It was cozy and we picked a nice high top table by the front window. We ordered the Goddess Glow Smoothie, Mrs Ts Roast Beef Sandwich and a dairy/gluten free strawberry parfait. Having diet restrictions makes eating out hard so I can't tell you how much I enjoyed having options to pick from! The parfait was yummy! The smoothie was noted as one of the best my partner ever had and he also raved about his sandwich. The service was super friendly and prices were reasonable. I only wish that I lived closer to this place!!

This is a cute little coffee shop. They have two long bar style counters along with a few tables. The staff is extremely friendly, helpful and informative on their speciality coffees. I tried the honey bee cortado which is espresso, milk of choice, vanilla and honey. It was perfectly sweet. Need to try the food next time!

I love kickstart Cafe, its such a cute easy spot to pick something up quick or sit in and stay. They're overnight oats are really nice, i like the pineapple chunks. There's a good number of vegan/vegetarian options too, the smokehouse sandwich is my favorite. Staff is helpful.

This cafe should run a Master Class on how to run a small business.The vibe is laid back and familiar. When you order, the staff treats you like they’ve known you forever. The food and drinks are designed with intent and care for their customer base, beautifully crafted, and delicious.I adore how they allow pets (and give little treats❤️).I love seeing a small business thrive! Congrats to the owners and staff for creating a third-place for their customers. Well done!

Absolutely love kickstart!! The staff is always helpful and super friendly! They have a good amount of counter seating if you're looking to have your coffee or food there! My absolute favorite thing to order is their iced dirty chai with oat milk! It has the best flavor and they make it perfectly every single time!
