As a regular diner who cherishes the joy of a heartening breakfast, I am inclined to share my excellent encounter at the Harvest Cafe. Being a local favorite known for its fresh fare and charming ambiance, my friends and I decided to come here for our usual Saturday morning breakfast, and we left feeling fulfilled and seen.
Upon arrival, the cafe was buzzing with energy, bringing with patrons eagerly waiting for their meals. The atmosphere was vibrant, a perfect setting for a leisurely breakfast. The day’s experience was simply perfect.
Being directed to a cozy corner, we settled in, expecting an enjoyable start to our day. Our first blessing came in the form of swift order placement from a very attentive staff of servers. We found ourselves feeling visible and taken care of.
This was an extremely promising start, as always. The food was out in less than 20 minutes, and my coffee mug was never empty (free refills!). The food, when it arrived, was delicious, made better by the efficiency of the service.
The best part of this experience is our interactions with the manager. The manager is a very active member of the team, constantly checking in on his customers to ensure that everyone is having a wonderful experience.
I am well aware that a single customer’s satisfaction might very well affect the bustling business of Harvest Cafe because I will be coming here again and again and again. This review is not just about the business, it’s about shedding light on a wonderful experience and perfect establishment.
In the hospitality industry, the customer’s experience is paramount. While the food is a key aspect, the service and attitude of the staff can make or break the dining experience. In our case, the attentive response from the manager and wonderful service turned our much-anticipated breakfast into an incredible experience.
Every customer deserves to be heard and respected, especially when they have a legitimate concern. The Harvest Cafe succeeded in living up to this fundamental expectation. The manager’s positive attitude and sense of responsibility left our hearts warm and bellies full.
In conclusion, the Harvest Cafe is a local favorite for a reason. The combination of delightful food and staff makes for a beautiful start to the day. It’s a dining experience we’ll never forget and will keep repeating forever.

This is my go-to place for breakfast. For many months, you can find me here at least twice a week for breakfast. It's simple and easy, which is how getting a meal should be.

This place is a Simsbury breakfast and bakery institution. Staff is always super friendly, food is served up quickly, and the bakery items are consistently top notch. Can be a bit of a line for a table on weekends, but worth the wait. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

My family and I have been coming to Harvest Café and Bakery for the better part of 15 years, and I can’t believe I’m only NOW writing a review! This place is a true Simsbury gem (having been around for 30+ years!) and offers consistently delicious food, a warm atmosphere, and the absolute best team around.
Scott, the general manager, is the hardest working guy in the restaurant business! He's always on site, always super funny and friendly, always on point, and clearly loves what he does. His staff reflects that same energy: welcoming, attentive, and just awesome.
Our favorite dishes are the top-notch Foster and Gorgonzola Scrambles. Harvest Cafe also always has new specials and their French Toast and Pancake specials are always creative and delicious. And do NOT miss the homemade bread you can order with almost every meal (or purchase on your way out), because it's amazing!
Harvest Cafe feels like home each and every visit. If you haven’t been, please check them out (they do get very busy on the weekends, so plan accordingly). You’ll be glad you did!

Great service and atmosphere. Didn't sit and eat, just grabbed a breakfast sandwich for $9. Bagel tasted good and fresh but a bit pricey.

I've been meaning to write this for a while. I grew up in simsbury and graduated high school in 2003 and moved away. I recently went back to visit and of course had to come back to Harvest Cafe. Scott is still there after all these years and still as chipper as ever. It made my little heart so happy. The food, atmosphere and people are amazing. Such a gem!!
Been coming here since I was a little kid. Amazing atmosphere friendly service and delicious breakfast.

I find most of my greatest eateries on google search. They are routinely on the spot. The Harvest Café and bakery is no exception. Our family knew it was going to be good when we got there and had to wait about a half an hour to get a table. The wait staff was fast and efficient and the food was delicious. I would highly recommend the harvest Café for breakfast.

Just wow! I live out of state and wanted to send my mom a special treat for her birthday. She resides at a nursing home in Granby. A friend suggested I contact Harvest Cafe & Bakery. I'm so glad I did! I spoke with Kim who coordinated everything. The cupcakes were absolutely stunning! Thank you so much for helping make my mom's birthday extra special. I can't wait to try out the cafe when I am in the area again. Highly recommend!!
