41 Best Cafes near Westport

“I've gotten donuts from here so many times and each time, I always leave wanting more. The inside of the shop is cute, cozy, and bright. It's perfect for chatting with a friend or getting some work done. Service here is really nice and always consistent.

Their menu offers a rotating menu of donuts with some staples but also some seasonal items, such as pumpkin spice. They also have Korean corn dogs (that are phenomenal) and a diverse menu of fun drinks, ranging from matcha to hot chocolate to milk tea to coffee. The quality here is amazing and each drink or donut I get is always full of flavor and the perfect amount of sweetness. Love this shop and I highly recommend you to check it out!“

“Not just granola, this place has wraps, bowls, and savory breakfast options all day. Great food. The breakfast tacos were super interesting and the breakfast sandwich was made with crispy bacon and your choice of breads/toast, cheese and eggs however you like them. Service was super polite, efficient, and there when you need them. About 8 tables in a modern space with background music that is just a touch loud.“

“We have been coming to the Westport Library Café for so many years — from when our child was in elementary school all the way until going off to college.

We’re so grateful to have such a place in our community!“

“Enjoyed a delicious lunch on the patio. Quiche Lorraine was excellent. Service was delightful.“

“Great food and atmosphere. The staff was awesome!!!!“

“I can’t say enough! Strawberry matcha, lattes, coffee and every pastry, scone or cookie, avocado toast, I’ve had is seriously delicious. Whatever coffee they use, their nut milks, does not cause me to have any bad reactions. I think their super curated ingredients are a reflection of that. Consistently good, fresh, clean. Even with the volume of customers, they keep this place CLEAN. It gets busy. So prepared for that. Cute spots to sit. But nothing cozy and quiet. Expect bustling business. Lots of teens but also families and mid age ppl. Great ingredients and a healthy alternative to less healthier options.“

“We just had lunch at Elvira's today. The sandwiches were DELICIOUS. I had the hot dog with sauerkraut and onions, my sister had the portabella mushrooms and mozzarella sandwich, my husband had BLT and my brother-in-law had tuna salad. Crunchy onion rings and Joey's famous fries were super good. Everything was delicious. It was easy to order on line and our "server" Sam treated us like family. Great service, easy to order, the food was yummy and we ate it by the beach. What could be better?“

“This is such a hidden Gem, great coffee and food. I had the pleasure of hosting a quick client meeting here and I have to say that it was a perfect spot. quiet and we had a great meeting with my client. sitting area is nice and roomy.

“Had delicious avocado toast with eggs and cinnamon latte. Also just purchased a surprise bag on Too Good toGo to pick up later. The lounge downstairs is comfy!“

“Not what it used to be. How could you mess up a Turkey Club Sandwich. Without a Hand Carved Turkey. Instead we got Cold cut Turkey. Must have been Brosehead. Packed with sodium. They even grilled the sliced bread with plenty of butter. I'm still a big fan. Because they always come up with different taste for your pallet. Nothing wrong with surprises. Not bad for a small place that use to pack a Punch! Beer needs to be colder. Yeah sure I'll come back. To try salad. Excellent workers Beautiful people too. This is a mix feeling review for those who are confused. Just come on down. I'm not giving up. Just yet. Been coming hear for to long.“

“Tiny coffee joint on Elm Street in bustling downtown New Canaan offering authentic Italian coffee and delicious baked specialties. Not only breakfast items but yummy looking salads and paninis as well! Really small cost indoor seating area and a small patio seating area make this potentially better for take out than dine in. Overall very cute!“

“Enjoyed dinner last night in Westport! Food was delicious! Definitely recommend!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I recently went to the Crown Cafe for breakfast sandwiches. I called in the order on the phone and everything was ready when I got there. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the buns were fresh. The prices were very reasonable as well. Hope to go back soon.“

“My husband and I eat from there often, we have been served by the owner who’s so nice and provides amazing service. But today, we were served by a girl who was on the her phone gossiping with someone the entire time, she even had the phone on speaker. And I would not have cared about it if we would have at least gotten water. She didn’t even asked if we wanted anything, didn’t brought us water at any point, and was being very loud on the phone.“

“Went here w my girlfriend for the first time today. Got the calm down smoothie (I think that’s what it’s called?). Girl at the front was very nice and the smoothie came out in about 2-3 minutes. Atmosphere inside was very bright and nice. Will definitely be coming back again.“

“We tried their pizza for the first time. Ordered a margarita pizza. It was delicious and unbelievably fresh and the dough was incredible. We’ve tried most pizza places in our area. This was definitely the best“

“The Granola Bar catered a breakfast for our school’s Teacher Appreciation Week in Fairfield and absolutely exceeded expectations. Their team suggested the perfect menu — delicious egg wraps, mini muffins and pastries, and beautiful yogurt parfaits — and everything was fresh, thoughtfully presented, and a huge hit with the teachers.

Delivery was seamless and reliable, and they even made sure to include all utensils, napkins, and plates which made organizing the event so much easier. The entire spread felt elevated, generous, and genuinely lovely. We received so many compliments from staff throughout the morning. Highly recommend for catering — they made the whole experience effortless and special.“

“Yeah it is a cafe where you are captive in the aquarium, but we thought our food was very good considering we had low expectations. The clam chowder was delicious and our daughter enjoyed her Mac and cheese kids meal. Food is pricey because you’re stuck in the aquarium with little other options available but at least we felt it was decent.“

“Nice but average home local bar.
However, the ower is Right !!
There's a Very Good reason this place is going on for over 40 years.
It's one of my favorites.
Wednesday open mic is fun.
If you play or not, Wednesday is highly recommended.“
