“Drop Cafe is a hidden gem that you definitely need to experience. I love everything about it! The drinks are truly fine crafted and are the type of quality I look for when traveling. My matcha latté was perfectly balanced with sweetness and came with a heart on top. The food is excellent and handmade. There are so many fine bakery choices. My breakfast wrap was toasted until it was crunchy which really elevated the texture. The atmosphere is like cafés you see in photos or YouTube background music videos. The decor is fun and modern. The owner, Paris Kyriakou, is what takes Drop Café to 5+ stars. He really takes pride in making everything wonderful for his customers. He is kind, friendly, and welcoming. After only chatting briefly one time, and now each time I visit, Paris goes out of his way to say hello and to ask how I've been. He truly loves what he does and his passion for high quality coffee, food, and relationships makes all of the difference.“

“THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!! Went in with my friends and they were so kind to us and told us about their recommendations. This is the best iced latte i've ever had. They also threw in a free treat because my friend couldn't make up her mind. Go to this place immediately.“

“Literally cannot stress enough how this is the best coffee in the area... maybe even the North East. Any time I have to leave town I get upset because I wont be able to have my usual vanilla cappuccino from the best staff around. We are SPOILED! 5 stars is not a high enough rating.“

“The Northshore breakfast sandwich is purely addicting and has become my occasional goto. However, I do feel that they get their counter staff from the RMV reject pile. If I'm paying $18 for a really good breakfast sandwich and a very average cold brew, I do not think it's too much to ask for a smile and to be thanked for my business. I was standing with three other customers and we were all in agreement.“

“I just started coming to Roasted and I wish I started sooner because I was missing out. The staff is friendly, the atmosphere is cozy and the food is delicious. I like bringing a cinnamon roll home for later because they are that good. The in house juices are also amazing and something worth trying.“

“Have to say had an amazing breakfast last week was very impressed got to meet one of the cooks named Jarrod I believe very nice young man made me feel like family and will be back again thank you for having such an amazing business and employees.“

“Stopped by this cute shop needing a dose of caffeine after a long flight and fighting jet lag. The service was amazing and being from out of town the baristas were so kind to tell me what was in every beverage. Ended up ordering the Nutty Bee after they told me they make all their syrups in house. The beverage wasn't too sweet and really enjoyed the nutty flavor that came through What really impressed me was how friendly the shop owner was with all the customers and how she treats her employees. She seems to be very supportive and you can tell with all of the banners she enjoys making a positive difference in the community“

“I absolutely love this place. It's hard to write down everything I love, lol. I started going here as a customer, and now I get to work here! The atmosphere is so inviting, the employees and the aroma of delicious baked goods greet you as soon as you walk in. There is everything you want in an Italian bakery, from Italian pastries to the most delicious sandwiches. Everything is homemade and made with love. 10 out of 10, I recommend this place to EVERYONE!Dietary restrictions: There are options for vegetarians, people who are gluten free and even a couple of vegan options!“

“Great food, great people, low cost.The roast beef dinner is to kill for...I get a luncheon portion for dinner and can barely finish it. If you get the dinner portion, you're guaranteed to take about half of it home with you, which will make your doggy happy.The fish and chips is among the best in the Merrimack Valley too.“

“We found Hummingbird Nutritious Eats because I have to follow a strict vegan and gluten free diet. The food here is AMAZING, everything I have tried has been delicious especially the desserts. Even my husband who has never liked health food loves it! The staff is also what keeps us coming, you can tell they put a lot of thought and effort into all they do. I highly recommend.“

“I've been eating bagels all over this country. This place is A++Tim and the crew at Baked Bagel Cafe know exactly what they're doing. I was greeted from the moment I stepped in by a friendly counter girl who immediately took my order.Service was fast, and bagels fresh. What more can you ask for?Can't wait to be back and support a small business who are clearly making bagels their passion.KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!“

“Probably the best breakfast place in Tenerife South. Living here I have visited almost all of it. The only disgusting thing here are flys. Owner should instal some flys catching equipment. These you can find in Leroy Merlin. My children doesn’t want to go there only for flys.“

“A great spot to grab a breakfast bite! Their sandwiches are yummy and their tots are crunchy deliciousness! Highly recommend any of their baked treats and coffee too.Dietary restrictions: They have a gluten free option for bread and you can have any of the sandwiches over tater tots instead!“

“Wish I knew this place existed sooner! Everything we had was very good, including the lattes. I had a chocoweggli and the spinach and cheese croissant (next time I would get it warmed) but both were delicious. My husband had a pretzel stick and a raspberry berliner and enjoyed both, the raspberry jam filling was really fresh tasting. Not much room to sit inside - there are only 3 small two-person tables.“

“Nan’s Cafe is my go-to for a quality breakfast. The food is always delicious, whether you’re craving a classic eggs and bacon or something more adventurous.The staff sets this place apart—they’re always amazing, making you feel welcome from the moment you walk in the door.If you’re in the area and looking for an outstanding breakfast spot, do yourself a favor and check out Nan’s Cafe. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Can't believe I've lived in Andover since 1983 and have never been here. The adventure began with the aroma of chocolate when you walk in - amazing. I did a quick jog through the candy store and vowed to take my granddaughters here during their next visit. Next ordered lunch: chicken BLT which was so fresh. Bacon was crispy and they remembered to not add guacamole. Next came the sundae: their list in-house of flavors that are made on site doesn't match the online list (butter crunch ) but the substituted butter pecan was delicious. My only complaint of the day was that the rich, flavorful butterscotch sauce was room temp and not at all heated. All staff were friendly and attentive. Everything felt nostalgic which was so nice. I'll be back.“

“I got the Banana Walnut Waffle, which they ended up using almonds instead for some reason. It was probably better that way because it was really good! I had boba tea as well which was okay but not my favorite, might just be my personal taste. I don't remember the flavors we got, but the one my partner got I thought was tastier, so it varies.“

“This was a close walk from our accommodation and it did not disappoint.My mom and I were immediately greeted and given some time to choose what we wanted for coffee and food.I got a fall special that was better than any pumpkin spice drink from Starbucks or Dunkin and avocado toast. My mom got an iced Americano and a bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant.Our food and drinks were exceptional!The atmosphere was laid back and relaxed with music that is not loud. A wonderful spot to get some work done as well in their booths, at a table or at the counter looking out the window people watching.If/when I make it back to Salem/Beverly, I will make it a point to stop back in!Highly recommend.“

“As a family who loves to have a family game night this was the perfect place to change up our normal routine of snacks & games at home. The popcorn was a table favorite, & the kids got to end the night with milkshakes. As a family of 5 who goes out to dinner often we can honestly say the cost of playing the games didn’t affect the bill as much as we thought. We read so many reviews about people complaining about the fee, but to be perfectly honest tonight didn’t cost us anymore than if we had done dinner & an activity somewhere else. We spent 3 hours here & everyone enjoyed our evening.Definitely a new favorite family night out.Kid-friendliness: We have three kids ranging from age 10 to 20 & they all had a good time!“

“I went here this morning for a Saint Patrick's Day brunch. I had the Irish Benedict & it was superb. The hollandaise sauce and corn beef hash were fresh and tasty. Our waitress was friendly & efficient. The place is roomy and clean. I will definitely be back.“

“Cute place, not as stylish as some city cafes, but that highlights that the focus is the food not the look. Every single food thing here is phenomenal. They're known for impeccable breads, though coincidentally the pastries are flawless, and the croissants aren't even too "bready". They rotate their selection-- we get about 12-14 items maybe once a month, and every single one is a knockout every time. Their coffee is also very good. The only improvement would be the service. I think there hasn't been a single time I've gone where they've actually gotten our large order right. Most recently, two bacon egg and cheeses were left off the receipt and just never made. This didn't detract from my rating though. The service is still kind and quick and the food quality more than makes up for it.“

“Fantastic bagel sandwiches and expertly prepared coffee beverages. Kevin and staff clearly care about their customers and strive for excellence. Their motto is "People first, then coffee," and it shows. Think "Cheers" for breakfast.“

“I took my daughter here for breakfast today and What a delicious meal! Everything was cooked perfectly, well seasoned with very generous portions. I’ll list our orders below: - Periwinkle special: Two eggs (any style), choice of 3 meats, home Fries or baked beans, choice of toast & 1 pancake or one slice of French toast I got my eggs over easy, grilled English muffin, home fries, a pancake, double bacon and grilled Portuguese chourico. Everything was very tasty! Loved how crispy/crunchy both the English muffin and bacon were. But the standouts were definitely the chourico and the home fries. Both were fantastic.. great flavor and the home fries are cooked with caramelized onions (which I love!) -Smoked Salmon Benedict :English muffin topped with two poached eggs, smoked salmon & hollandaise sauce (comes with home fries, beans or fresh fruit on the side) . My daughter said this was amazingly delicious! Perfectly poached eggs, creamy buttery hollandaise, grilled English muffins, salmon was tender with a nice Smokey flavor.. paired beautifully with the rest of the dish. The decor is nautical themed.. there are a bunch of little tables and a long bench (with pillows) along the front wall. Cute, clean and cozy.. little hand written signs throughout, with one listing their muffins of the day. (I believe todays offerings were corn, blueberry and chocolate chip). Waitress was super friendly and attentive. I have to make a special mention of the prices.. it is such a good deal! Everything we got (including coffee) it all only came to 25 dollars total (that’s with tax too!).. given the portion sizes and quality of food, that’s an insane bargain. I can’t recommend this place enough. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!“

“I love having this alternative to CVS. There are no lines, friendly service, and if you need some cough medicine, etc, the pricing is very good! I now stock up on my medicine closet from them while I’m picking up any Rxs. And the kids love their soda fountain.“

“Ordered the homemade Corned Beef Hash with eggs and home fries. Everything was delicious. My order was taken on a handheld device. I've been to a lot of diners and it's nice to see this one has embraced technology. The staff was friendly as well as the crowd. I'll be back.“

“Great homemade pastries and bagels. Their Coffee roll (essentially a cinnamon bun) is the best I've ever had and they had a special little treat for my 18 month old daughter. I definitely recommend the veggie cream cheese they have- it is outstanding on their bagels. Will definitely be back.“

“Best BLT with eggs I've ever had. Hands down. Coffee is nice and strong, Not burnt tasting like other café shops. Staff was super friendly. There is limited parking for cars. For semi trucks there is the side street that runs along side of the café. You can turn your truck around at the dead end of the side street. Can park temporarily.Parking: Semi trucks can park along the side street that runs on the side on the café. Turn around at the end of the street. Parking is somewhat temporary“

“I decided to bring a dozen bagels to work for a party. I'm thankful for order ahead. Also the fact that they open so early when I'm driving by at 6am heading towards 95 is so convenient. The staff were super nice and had my order ready when I arrived. Several people asked where I got the bagels from so I know the taste and quality is top notch. I got almost one of every flavor and had them sliced for convenience. I also did a plain and a garlic and herbs cream cheese. So delicious! Maybe one of the best bagel places in the Merrimack Valley.“

“OK not to be dramatic but I would eat here every single day if I could afford it. I have literally driven here from Swampscott through downtown Salem during rush hour when I am craving an açaí bowl because I refuse to go anywhere else -- like, hands down the best bowls on the north shore. Close second is The Juicery in Salem. SoBol never skimps on anything & everything is soooo fresh and delicious every time, without fail. When I go in, it's usually teenagers working and they are very friendly and positive which I feel is rare these days, they are not sitting on their phones and being rude, they are genuinely customer-oriented and that speaks to the owner of the store and their ability to staff young people in the workforce. The store is always clean and there's always parking. The options for add-ons are more than any other place in the area--shout out to their cookie butter, it's heavenly and I always get extra. I rave about this place and if I didn't work full time and have a business already, I would probably work here LOL. Can't wait until the next time I get a coconut bowl with plant protein blended in, extra goji berries and extra cookie butter!“
