“I got an unusually good chai latte with almond milk, and my girlfriend was impressed with her flat white with oat milk. This place has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, and one single occupancy bathroom. I did not scrutinize the snack case, but the bars and whatnot looked vegan. I wouldn't be surprised if they had vegan ice cream in the ice cream case, but I didn't ask.“
“Love Heart and Soul!! You are always warmly welcomed when you arrive and feel special. The atmosphere has natural energy and the menu and specials are fantastic. My sister took me there for my birthday and before I knew it the entire restaurant, patrons and staff, were singing Happy Birthday to me. A special place for sure!! Great food, atmosphere and service. A definite 5 rating all around!“
“We love Sandpiper. We love the staff, the food, the atmosphere and the convenience. As a small, local business owner, I have zero problem with their transparent pricing. We offer the same. It’s crazy that somehow transparency is being spun as a bad thing in some of these reviews. Any way I could go on and on about the cost of running a small business, but most people don’t care bc they aren’t in the arena. Their primary concern is the extra .45 their croissant costs.We are regulars. We order for our family and our clients. Everything is exceptional. I particularly love the salmon toast, almond croissant, tapos for a quick sweet, any of their counter sandwiches, grain bowl and the chick pea soup! I’m sure my kids have their favorites too. And my husband will eat literally everything there. Heading over this afternoon and hope to grab 2 of the homemade chicken pot pies for family dinner!When my mother reached end of life, their quiches were the only thing she would eat. I would grab a coffee and 2 quiche on the way to hospice and be sure she ate something amazing with me. The hospice staff was not happy with me but that didn’t phase me one bit. Because of this Sandpiper will always have a special place in my heart.This bakery is popular! Be prepared to wait, look at their menu in advance. Have a back up option in mind. No matter what you choose, you will not be disappointed!“
“The bagels here are excellent, and everything there is at a great price point for breakfast food. I enjoy them just as much as Abraham's in Newburyport. I only wish they would open a little sooner. I often get there at 7AM to find it not open yet. Hopefully if they get more business they will want to open earlier.“
“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.“
“A quaint little breakfast joint right across from the beach on Plum Island. Filled with regulars and visitors, it might be hard to get a seat.Your patience will be rewarded as they are some of the nicest folks I’ve met in a long time, with great coffee, service, and food. They really make you feel at home.We look forward to our next visit there.Dietary restrictions: I was happy to see they had a few gluten free options and were ready to answer any questions that I had.“
“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.“
“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!“
“Jen Ju is one of my favorite spots in Newburyport. I love the variety of flavors offered on their menu. My personal favorite is the Taro Milk Tea with Lychee Pearls, but their tea pumps are also worth a try. In addition to their drinks, they also sell various international snacks and cute boba-themed gifts.“
“We had a wonderful lunch like always at Middle Street. Their bread is just outstanding making anything on it that much better.Their baked goods are out of this world. I had their bostock a week or so earlier and couldn't wait to come back in and have another! I did today and it did not disappoint!Service is very friendly and timely for a made to order lunch.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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.“
“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!“
“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.“
“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.“
“Essex is truly lucky to have Googans! I work right around the corner and it is wonderful having a go to spot for lunch or a mid week bakery treat. My office loves their brownies and most recently their amazing chicken pot pie pasta as well as their carrot cake donuts.“
“My recent visit to Olive's Coffee & Bakehouse in Newburyport, MA, was an absolute delight, and I'm excited to share my experience. From the moment I stepped inside, I was enchanted by the charming decor, which creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. It's clear that every detail has been thoughtfully curated to ensure a cozy and pleasant visit.One of the highlights of my visit was discovering their mint matcha latte - a refreshing and innovative twist on the classic matcha latte. It was perfectly balanced, offering a delightful combination of flavors that I hadn't experienced before. This drink alone is worth a visit!The staff at Olive's Coffee & Bakehouse deserves a special mention for their friendliness and excellent service. They were attentive, welcoming, and genuinely seemed to enjoy their work, which added to the overall positive ambiance of the cafe.The food was nothing short of fantastic. The pastries and breakfast options were plentiful and all looked tempting. I particularly enjoyed the chia seed pudding and the frittata, both of which were flavorful, fresh, and satisfying. The chia seed pudding was the perfect blend of texture and taste, while the frittata was cooked to perfection, packed with ingredients that melded together wonderfully.Overall, Olive's Coffee & Bakehouse is a gem in Newburyport. It's the perfect spot for anyone looking for delicious food, great drinks, and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're a local or just passing through, make sure to stop by for a truly delightful experience. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!“
“Bruce and Dede do an outstanding job providing the best service possible no matter how busy it can get. I love seeing the staff every week and any of the locals that may be in there when I go. Great local café that 100% deserves a visit if you’re coming from out of town. Oh and they got the best scones/muffins you’ll ever have too ;)“
“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!“
“Our company has been ordering meals for our staff for the past few weeks, and the food is fantastic. Healthy, delicious, and easy to heat and eat. Cindy (owner) is super helpful very responsive.We typically order a few of every item each week and feedback from our team has been overwhelmingly positive. We've done other meal prep services in the past with varying degrees of success, but something was always missing. Menus weren't varied enough, or the vegetables didn't taste fresh, etc. But we have none of those issues with Clean Eatz. Excellent service, highly recommend.“
“Changing Tides Café has not just a lovely atmosphere, but also friendly staff, great food, and amazing coffee! My partner and I went here for Valentine's Day, and it was just an overall pleasant experience! The mocha latte I got is the best I've had around here, and the donut egg sandwich was tasty and filling! Definitely will come back again! Happy Valentine's Day! ❤️“
“I work a lot and was in the mood for a nice cup of coffee, while waiting for my stunning date to come out restroom I was greeted by a welcoming duet seating area by the fire . I ordered a cafe au lait as well my date . Fernando was very personal , charming and was full of smiles . I loved the energy he had , we had a few good laughs and I advised him he would get a good review . Thank you for your warmth professionalism and kindness. Danielle and me appreciate it . A one star review followed by 5 big golden stars“
“Creative Lattes and Gluten-Free Pastries Galore!There were four different kinds of maple lattes last time I went, as well mochas, white mochas, and caramel lattes: I never order the same coffee twice.The Gluten-Free cookies are super fresh, soft, and individually packaged by a local bakery, "Daniella's Dandies".I always leave Plum Island Coffee happy, that's for sure. ?Dietary restrictions: Many Gluten-Free Pastries Available“
“The sandwich was fantastic! In the end that’s what counts. I gave it 4 stars because this is a lunch place in an industrial center… and it took well over 20 minutes to get the most basic sandwich they offer. And the place was only 25% full at the time. It was way too long to wait for a lunch crowd. Tighten that up and they are awesome.“
“I love Grassy Roots, expensive but worth it. Quality ingredients and a super friendly staff make it worth the trip to the new location. Wenham was easier for me but up the road and not too far into Beverly. The juices are just what the doctor ordered...literally!!“
“I love the bagels and a lot of the items on the menu. The thing I actually do not like there is the coffee. To me it just taste burnt.. Maybe it's just me, but I just don't like it at all. But everything else I get there is grade between the Panini's and all the other goodies. The people who work there are always very nice also.“
“Beverly is known as a place with great coffee. And new ones keep coming here too. All are good coffee. Atomic has the best coffee in my opinion. Only place I like as much (believe it or not) is the coffee at Beverly Whole Foods. I also like Kaffmandu, Nero, What's Brewin', and others, but Atomic is clearly just a bit better. I only drink decaf and find the taste so rich without being bitter. They have all the types, all the kinds of milks, and they have a decent food lineup too. When I go, I go because it is reasonably priced, food is great quality and quantity and coffee is wonderful. For breakfast there is a bowl I get that is fine, not fantastic but I keep getting it. Their breakfast sandwich is all made to order and quite good. Their lunches are better than the breakfasts in my opinion. They have a wonderful tuna melt that is quite generous. And they have the best grilled cheese. So good. Their sweets are limited to choose from (muffins, scones, donuts, maybe one other thing) and all come from Coffee Time which make great things. I'd rather they come from AJ Bakery, but they are still good and reasonably priced for sure. I always bring things home for the fam when I go for coffee. Every drink and food is made to order, and it is sometimes difficult to find chairs. A very popular place for sure.“
“So much more than Bagels. I love the chicken salad sandwich on a sesame bagel with onion and cucumbers. Or you can go with an egg sandwich, or my second go-to, the Lox bagel with capers, red onion, and tomato. If you are carb conscience, ask for it "scooped" and they will spoon out the bagel so you get mostly crust with what seems like more filling! You can even grill or toast your bagel sandwich in butter or plain and make it crispy. Great place, with great owners, and a good value, win.“
