50 Best Cafes near Holyoke

“Erica is super nice, the shakes are delicious. I really enjoyed my experience here!“

“We're from Wisconsin and had breakfast March 31 in your restaurant. I wish I could remember our waitress' name, but she was delightful. I had the (canned)corned beef hash omelet and loved it. I've never seen an omelet shaped the way you serve it, but again it was terrific on looks alone! You folks do a marvelous job.“

“My husband and I were on interstate 91 and we needed an EV charger. Found marcotte ford. We were there at 11:15 for lunch. My wife ordered a classic cheeseburger and I ordered a tuna melt. Both were amazing. We did go in with low expectations, thinking it was a cafe Inside a ford dealership, it couldn't be that good, boy were we wrong. Chef Tim and chaye take their jobs seriously and it shows. I would highly recommend whether you live in the area and are looking for a great lunch stop or, like us you're traveling looking for an EV charger, this is now our new stop in western massachusetts. Thank you marcotte Ford.“

“A solid 4 cafe. The servers are incredibly friendly and attentive. I found the two people there the day I went to be super polite. You order at the counter to take out or they serve you at a table with numbers.

I have a gluten and it’s doable here but very little variety. You can get an omelette. On the bright side, the meat lovers omelette is one of the best I’ve had! I guess they usually offer gf bread for toast or a sandwich but didn’t have it this day.

The home fries appeared excellent but unfortunately they tasted “off”. My husband figured out that it was cooked in old rancid oil. It unfortunately ruined my meal. Even just a few bites.

I’m going to assume this was a one off bad experience. The coffee was good and there was a lot of variety. Plenty of parking. And the place had plenty of seating this day. I would say I cautiously recommend this establishment.“

“We ate here today after looking around various places at the food court. The portions were huge, and the food was fresh hot and good. Some of the negative reviews are a little bit confusing. This is a mall food court in Holyoke so some perspective is important. If you’re looking for Chef Ramsey or fine dining look elsewhere. Most of the people eating the food seemed to be happy and I actually thought for our meal the prices were not outrageously expensive.

Thank you say Cajun café“

“well my experience, I went there on Sun,.it was noon .there was one woman who I guess was the waitress. I sat down expecting maybe a menu,.20 minutes when by and she never came over., there was only one other person there who left after a short time, So I finally sat at the counter, she whet past me at least 6 times and totally ignored me, passing a few feet from me. never even looking my way. I saw a menu on the counter and read it,..only a few options,.so after a few more passes, I just left. I don't think I will come back as I went out of my way to get there.“

“si la quieren pasar bien visiten el mambo es la que hayyyy“

“I love their Beet Salad, and the bubble tea“

“After moving to the area, Nosh Café and Restaurant has quickly become one of my favorite places to enjoy brunch in Springfield. They offer a fantastic selection of vegetarian and vegan options which can sometimes be hard to find. Additionally, the atmosphere is both fun and relaxing with consistently friendly and welcoming staff. If you like to read or are looking for a new cookbook, Nosh has quite the selection of books available for purchase.

My personal recommendations:
- Nosh the Rainbow Sandwich
- Namaste Burger
- Falafel Burger
- Any of their pastries
- Seasonal Coffees - Current Fave: Salted Caramel Oatie“

“I went to this cafe today and the inside of the place was so clean 🧼 smelled like holiday spice. The customer service was great the owner miss Luisa was so fun and sweet. I got an apple danish and a cinnamon cappuccino ☕️. If you need a place that’s cozy to get some work done on a laptop 💻 or just a quick getaway to feel appreciated please go to cafe palazzo 😊“

“Great food and coffee. Friendly atmosphere“

“I love this place so much. The vibes are immaculate. They have such a cool collection of games and they have a small but very well made set of coffee options. To make things even better? They have coffee counter food and pastries which are incredible. The coffee shop scene in Northampton is hard to beat, but tunic really stands out.“

“Great owners, care about us customers as we care about them..!“

“Best sandwhich we’ve had in a long time ! The bread was super soft filled to the top ! My daughter who eats clean was so thrilled with all the options available and the giant ginger cookie we ate while we were waiting for our lunch was amazing !“

“One of my favorite places to visit. I come here at least once a week for delicious coffee, treats, sandwiches and to do my work. The atmosphere is very cozy and nice for getting work done or having business meetings. Highly recommend their meat lovers croissant and sour apple refresher. Yummy!“

“large choice for breakfast. great pancakes“

“This bakery used to be fab. It's now expensive and the quality is fine but it's really not special. it's gone way down hill except for the prices, they have stayed up. Don't go. you won't get sick, but you'll feel cheated“

“We served Florence Pie Bar at our wedding reception in lieu of cake and would recommend them to anyone. They were so kind and easy to work with, and everyone loved the pies. I'd suggest getting more pies than you think you need because some people got two or three slices, so it went fast! Thank you, Danny and team!“

“My wife and I are in town (from Birmingham) for graduation at Smith, and the sandwiches, coffee and staff were fabulous!“

“Made to order great food. A place with personality! Christo is amazing“

“The money was worth it since we got so much from our visit. Next time I may check out the two art museums as well. Parking was close and free, which was a nice bonus. Since Main Street isn't far, there are plenty of restaurants nearby but nothing to eat inside the museums“

“Love this place! The food brings me back to my childhood in PR, and the staff's warm and courteous service is very welcoming. They offer a great variety on items I'm interested in such as gifts with inspiring messages, modest clothing for women and men, and accessories that fit my style. Their caramel iced coffees are delicious! Great environment to wind down during lunch break...overall a place I would recommend to friends and family.“

“This food is fire. Shout out to the baker. And also the people making the drinks. Costumer service is kind and natural. Also Swaggy vibes. (Epic)

Vegetarian options: Just about everything is vegetarian.

Kid-friendliness: Once some preschoolers walked in, and I saw the kern employees give them all free juice. It was very sweet. (And their teacher a coffee)“

“Voy todos los dias muy buenos y atentos lo recomiendo 100%“

“Best restaurant in Springfield the food is awesome in the service is impeccable My whole family loves the food here we try to eat it twice a month thank you Jake's“

“The GF waffles were out of this world... soft and fluffy. I'm very sensitive to gluten cross- contamination, and it was reassuring to me that the staff person was knowledgeable and asked me if I had a gluten allergy and needed separate preparation for my order. They also are taking COVID precautions seriously. They are requiring proof of vaccination in order to dine in (this is clearly posted inside and outside of restaurant), and while at my table I overheard a staff person asking an unmasked person to put on a mask. Could not have had a more enjoyable experience... sad I don't live in the area!“

“YUP Coffee Roasters is the best hidden gem in Florence & Northampton. Excellent coffee and the barista, Molly, is fabulous! It is family owned and operated and this family are some of the nicest people on the planet! FIVE PLUS STARS!“

“The BBQ chicken sandwhich was the most amazing and flavorful barbecue sandwhich I think I've ever had. I didn't expect it to taste that good! The fun flavors of drinks offered were also awesome! The staff and the chef had wonderful personalities and we had so much fun!“

“my favorite refuel pitstop after hot yoga!! Their teas and smoothies are delicious, refreshing, and filling. The owner is super sweet and I come just as much for the good conversation and unique environment as I do for the tasty treats. 10/10!!“

“Great time hanging out & playing pool!“

“This is one of the best spots in NorthHampton, Massachusetts, definitely has the freshest ingredients and I’ve been all over Northampton restaurants. Mediterranean salad is worth every penny they put a lot of ingredients in it. Everything is fresh and crisp and it’s actually very big salad. Their sandwiches are spot on, desserts are delicious snd beautiful, The one thing I like about this place is I get service with a smile sometimes that’s missing in restaurants today and Cafe but not here. You can tell that everybody likes working there. They look very happy I didn’t go in July 2025 I go as much as I can.!!“

“I love love their sweet treats !!!! Wonderful customer service and so cute inside ! Definitely recommend trying them out !!!“

“Staying at the sheraton nearby convenient place to get a quick bite. Went there around 10am wasn't busy. Food was prepared quickly and got what i asked for. Service is excellent. You can get you bagel and coffee and eat right outside they have a few tables and chairs in the vestibule. Cris was very polite and brought your order out to you while you wait.“

“Best bubble tea in western mass!! High quality not fake or cheap tasting fruit tea and milk teas. They use real strawberrys in the strawberry match tea too.*****They have soy milk option for people who are lactose intolerant*****The boba and popping boba are higher quality than some other shops.“

“Had breakfast at this fall themed quaint restaurant for the first time. The veggie omelet was delicious and home fries seasoned perfectly along with my English muffin. Coffee served hot in a cute mug and waitress friendly and attentive. Cash only but they have an ATM on site. Lunch specials available as well. Lots of tea choices if you are a tea lover. I’ll be back!“

“Eat is easily my favorite restaurant to dine! If you’re looking for great quality food at a reasonable price with a plethora of daily specials to keep it fun, this is definitely your place to go! Whenever I have the chance to have lunch with someone new, it is my go-to place. The menu is super inclusive whether you are vegan, vegetarian, or an omnivore. 10/10 EVERY TIME. I appreciate their professionalism and thoughtfulness, as well!“

“The employees here are always SO kind and fix problems even when they aren’t their fault (like third party delivery drivers not delivering orders). They go above and beyond to help and are very understanding. Food is always prepared on time and well. 🙂“

“My favorite place to have a latte & relax. It's also my go-to when I need a special gift.“

“Richards has the best sandwiches around!“

“I love everything about Urban Foods, Mooson coffee ☕️Corsello meats,🐄🐔 Wicked,👕 breakfast,🥚🥓brunch,🥪 lunch,🥗 dinner, 🥧the atmosphere,💒 art🎨 🖼books, 📚music 🎶and all the workers with their smiles! 😀“

“The Zen Frog offers a delightful mix of housewares, coffees, and teas. While the pastries could be fresher, the ambiance is elevated by live music nights and rejuvenating reiki/tai chi sessions, making it a haven for relaxation and enjoyment.“

“I absolutely love the coffee just wish they had some vegan options for baked goods!“

“I met a colleague for lunch here recently and it was fantastic! We were warmly greeted, and our lunch was fabulous. The butternut bisque is perfect in a cold day!“

“What a treat on our visit to NH! Family owned. Great price and quality. Some of the best coffee I've had - and I'm a coffee snob! Really enjoyed the Blueberry Morning brew (I think that's what it was called?), baklava, breakfast sammies, and cran orange muffin. Great atmosphere, great food and bev!“

“Hubby and I love dining on the patio of the Coolidge Park Cafe at the Hotel Northampton at least once or twice a season. Normally the food is good, just good. But last night it was stellar. Hubby had the pan seared wild caught salmon over polenta with fried Brussels sprouts and I had the pan seared wild caught scallops over mushroom risotto and asparagus spears. Everything was absolutely delicious. I haven't had a decent scallop in years, but these really tasted of scallops and the sea with a great texture. The risotto was so rich and mushroomy I can see I'm going to have to make a special broth and buy a bunch of mushrooms to try making one myself. We shared the lemon tart which also knocked our socks off. The server was equally stellar, thoroughly professional and delightful at the same time. We'll be back before snow flies for sure!

Parking: There is plenty of free parking behind and next to the hotel.“

“Good vibes, great selection of teas and shakes. I’ve been to a lot of Herbalife spots but have never been able to choose from 4 different caffeine levels for any tea like Garvey’s offers! Ordering gluten free is very easy- it’s marked on the menu. And they mapped out their top 10 most popular shakes (which I highly recommend trying). They also have a loyalty card for a chance to win a free drink.

Dietary restrictions: Easy to order gluten free“

“Delicious Brunch!!! Nice & Clean Place!!!!“

“I had a dinner party of 8 at this restaurant ans it did not disappoint. Service was impeccable and the food selection and quality was top notch. Ordered the shrimp cocktails , grilled octopus and cheese boards for the tables. The wedge salads were excellent, however the Cesar salad was flavorless. For the entrees we ordered rib eyes and filets all around and the wood grilled flavor and the meat quality was outstanding. All were cooked perfectly. While this restaurant is pricy, it is well worth it. Try the banana bread pudding for desert. You will love it.“
