50 Best Coffee Shops near Marblehead

“Best coffee ever! Shop local!“

“First time visiting Marblehead and Mookie’s was the breakfast spot closest to where we are staying. Hubby and I both had an egg, cheese and bacon on an English muffin and pumpkin iced lattes and everything was delish! We’re going back tomorrow for breakfast again!“

“It’s all good, why limit yourself?? And if you are anti-muffin and don't subsequently grab someone you love a baked good, then you are not a good person!!! Everyone here is super nice. Grab a coffee and something to eat and observe the cheery attitudes and incredible customer service. ”Fish rots from the head”....Whatever the saying, it is clear Maria is doing a great job relaying what sh knows on how to treat patrons, staff and the town of Marblehead. lt seems the people have spoken based on the crowd and crazy good flow of foot traffic! I can't wait to watch what you do next. They don't say ”Good Luck” in Texas because they don't believe it. Instead, they say ”Do good”. So....do good!!“

“Went to On the Grind this morning after seeing a post about them having a coconut bagel. The ladies behind the counter are very nice and know each of their regular customers. I watched them greet many and knew exactly what they were going to order or already had a preorder waiting. I ordered the coconut bagels for my son and I. One with regular cream cheese and one with pineapple cream cheese and they did not disappoint!!! The coconut bagel with pineapple was delicious and not overly sweet and lots of toasted coconut. Highly recommend trying this little hidden gem!“

They did unfortunately make one drink wrong but they did fix it and we're quick on getting it fixed! Would love to go back when it's a less crazy day. Took everything to go.“

“We had the pleasure of working a wedding with Capito Coffee and they truly elevated the coffee experience. From start to finish, their service was impeccable, and their coffee was a hit among guests.
The espresso shots were rich and robust, providing that perfect jolt of energy needed to keep the celebration lively. The lattes were a standout favorite; each cup was beautifully crafted with just the right amount of frothy milk and espresso. The cappuccinos were a perfect balance of strong espresso, creamy milk foam, and a sprinkle of cocoa.
Beyond the exceptional coffee, the service was top-notch. The baristas were friendly and professional, and they managed the coffee station efficiently despite the high volume of guests.
Capito Coffee located in Peabody, MA was not only a hit for their coffee but also for their professionalism and ability to blend seamlessly into the wedding environment. If you’re looking for a coffee vendor who will impress your guests and provide a memorable coffee experience, we highly recommend Capito Coffee.

“I love aroma Joe’s ! Best coffee - cold brew is my go to and the bacon Gouda. My dogs love going to the one in Newburyport where they get dog bone ! I don’t know if Middleton does this as I haven’t taken my pups to this one but if you don’t I suggest you start 😜 lots of doggie people out there just another way to separate yourselves“

“Do not miss this spot if you are visiting Salem. We had treats from our Air B&B which caused us to go in person. Everything was lovely, delicious and fresh. Customer service was fantastic. We had croissants, a bagel sandwich, fresh bread, the most amazing cookies and, my favorite, the spinach and leek puff with everything seasoning. The coffee was great too. Thanks so much!“

“Was in town visiting Salem and noticed this place on our way. Headed here for a late dinner on our way back to our hotel. We’re immediately impressed with the design of the space. The owners son Joe greeted us and was incredibly helpful because we mentioned we’ve never had hot pot before. Past the great service and friendly atmosphere the food was absolutely incredible and we easily agreed it was in our top 10 best flavored meals. Would recommend to anyone in the area.“

“Kane's donuts was excellent to try the staff was friendly and helpful and management could not do enough to help me out and the customer service and table services was excellent and excellent coffee made delicious to eat and the donuts are fresh made every day melt in my mouth leave a tasty for more donuts excellent prices“

“Let me start out by saying BEST HONEYDEW MILK TEA EVER!! Seriously, I have tried A LOT of milk tea in my day and what I ordered from sweet boba was the best milk tea I’ve had hands down. I am so excited that Sweet Boba is here! The staff is so kind and it’s such a nice experience. I will definitely be going here a lot!“

“Hello Cafe Nero! This is a lovely establishment. The coffee is delectable and the food pastries and environment and ambience are breathtaking but the food you don’t look at too much you just eat it but it’s very good when you eat it. It’s delicious. I love the seating. Sometimes we sit outside another time we sit inside, but both are great when I go to Café Nero. I like to get many things sometimes I get a caramel cappuccino sometimes I get a cold brew sometimes I get a latte and it’s always lovely no matter what I get the butter crumb cake is one of my favorite things. It’s so yummy. I also like the chocolate croissants. I also like the tiramisu I got that the other day it was pretty good 10 out of 10 I would say anyway the baristas ambience, food, and coffee is the best thank you, café Nero“

“This staff is the BEST on the Northshore. Starting with Manager Lauren and every single member of her team. Pleasant , friendly interactions , coffee always perfect. If I had 1 comment - music too loud as many of us are working , but that's my only comment. The area is always clean as well.“

“Love all of the chicken choices. Piccata, marsala, enchiladas, herbed. We keep our freezer stocked with "Mill meals!"“

“It's bittersweet because the food is great and almost everyone that works there is polite except for the girl that wears the headphones in the pink sweatshirt at the Middleton place. she always has an attitude. she always has a look on her face like I shouldn't be here and I'm better than everybody. never says please never says thank you never responds to you when you say thank you. I will no longer go to this place this has been multiple visits that the lady has been totally unfriendly and I think it makes everyone in the room at that time very uncomfortable. 12.20.24 7:23 AM.“

“Overall great pastry, exception was sausage roll. Very large roll with one pinkie finger sized piece of sausage tucked in the middle. Def not worth $5“

“How anyone could give this place a bad review makes no sense to me. You've probably already read from the other reviews that the staff is incredible, but truly -- they are. They are so kind and welcoming to every single person that comes in. Aside from that, the coffee is AMAZING! They have so many different flavors to choose from and you can customize any drink however you like (even if it's not on the menu). Also, the breakfast sandwiches... wow. Get 'The Stallion', just trust me. Prices are completely reasonable. Honestly, no other coffee place I've been to even compares. I'll be a longtime customer!“

“I'm here nearly every day before work and the food, drinks, and staff are all equally exceptional. The only coffee shop that's batting 1000 on a perfect drink every time.“

“Best place ever Always feel comfortable and safe when I am here“

“Stopped in for a quick coffee on opening day and ended up having one of the nicest experiences I've had in a café in a long time. The woman working at the register was absolutely wonderful warm, kind, and genuinely pleasant to talk to. You could tell she loves what she does and makes everyone feel welcome.

The coffee itself was great, but honestly, her attitude and energy were what made the visit special. She's the kind of person who makes you want to come back again“

“Very friendly and cheerful staff. Great coffee and sandwiches.“

“always great service! excellent crew😉“

“Walking into this breakfast spot instantly lifts your mood — the warm aroma of fresh bagels, sizzling sausage, and roasted coffee beans sets the tone for a joyful start to the day. Everything about the place radiates comfort and optimism, from the friendly staff who greet you with genuine smiles to the vibrant presentation of each dish.

The bagel with sausage and egg is an absolute delight. The bagel is toasted perfectly, with a light crunch on the outside and soft, chewy warmth inside. The sausage adds a savory depth while the egg ties everything together, creating a hearty and satisfying bite that fuels you with energy for the day ahead.

Equally impressive is the avocado, egg, spinach, and cheese option. It feels like the definition of a “power breakfast” — the creaminess of avocado blended with the richness of melted cheese, the freshness of spinach, and the fluffiness of egg. Every mouthful tastes wholesome and balanced, delivering both nourishment and comfort. It’s the kind of dish that makes you feel proud of your food choice because it’s delicious yet packed with goodness.

To complement the meal, the strawberry smoothie with almond milk is pure bliss. Refreshing, naturally sweet, and silky smooth, it brings a burst of fruitiness that pairs beautifully with the savory plates. It feels like a treat and a health boost at the same time. For coffee lovers, the iced coffee is bold, crisp, and uplifting — the perfect companion to sip slowly while savoring breakfast conversations or quietly reflecting before the day begins.

This restaurant doesn’t just serve food — it delivers positivity on a plate and in a cup. Every item reflects care, quality, and a genuine desire to brighten your morning. A breakfast here doesn’t just fill your stomach, it fills your spirit with optimism“

“I became a customer for the nostalgia, my parents store occupied this space for 45 years, but I return for the great location and coffee and teas. I often meet new clients here. I like the chai booster and lavender latte.“

“Easily one of the most chaotic Dunkin’ visits I’ve ever had. The manager spent the entire time berating employees over a ticket machine, openly insulting them in front of customers instead of leading. Even worse, she tried to influence customers to talk down to the employees as well, calling them “stupid”. The toxic environment was impossible to ignore—employees looked miserable, and the inappropriate behavior between them was shocking. I’m just glad my kid wasn’t with me to witness it. Those employees deserve better.“

“Come for the coffee, stay for the croissants. If you haven't been here already I humbly recommend you come down and check it out for yourself.“

“Stopped here for the Hungry man… for $16. The food was OK. The potatoes were cold with hot spots. They put the cold butter on the hot pancakes, never figured out why they’d do that. But, there are something’s in the world I’ll never understand. If I am in the area, I’d consider Freddy’s or go to McDonalds and cut the cost in half.“

“ASHLYN is the absolute best Starbucks employee that I have ever come across!!! We need more people like her in this world. She will definitely excel in this world worth the work ethic that she portrays. I am glad that I stopped in. Thank you for going above and beyond to please your customers, Ashlyn“
