30 Best Cafes near Merrimac

“I absolutely love this place. I have yet to be able to go inside, but I use their drive thru whenever I can. I am always on the road, so I don't get too much time to stop and eat, but when I'm in the area. I always make time to go to their window and get some food. I seriously cannot rate this establishment high enough.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Great burgers, dogs, and fries. The lady running the place and cooking is very friendly. Never had a bad bite here - there are other things I want to try, but everything I've had is so good that I don't want to miss a chance to eat it when I'm there.Kid-friendliness: Kid-friendly, cool stuff for them to look at, but no touching the toys/comics on the wall“

“Five stars. I really enjoyed this place. First of all clean. I like the local pictures. The halloween decorations nicely done.I ordered French toast stuffed with raspberry jam and cream cheese. It's four slices. With butter, powder sugar, and cinnamon. Had to have it with New Hampshire syrup and oj. You'll hope it tastes as good as it sounds well it does. Also had blueberry muffin. It is moist fresh and flavorful. It has blueberrys threw out not just in cap. She ask if I wanted it warmed up with butter. After the French toast I decided to take it to go. They gave me butter and silverware with it. Couldn't ask for better service. I recommendation this place hole heartedly. You will enjoy you meal.“

“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!“

“Just moved to a nearby town, and so far this is my favorite coffee spot! I like that they have Atomic, and the food is great. I also love that they don't add any sweeteners by default here. Although be warned, if you're expecting e.g., your matcha latte to have a sweet vanilla flavor like Starbucks, you'll need to ask for the flavor as an add on.Parking: There are only a few spots up front, but there is a bigger lot behind the cafe that can be used too!“

“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 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.“

“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.“

“Discreetly nestled away in downtown Amesbury, Wise House is definitely not your run of the mill coffee shop. If you’re looking for a modern, bright and airy coffee shop with bubbly baristas, this is not the place for you. But if you like a coffee shop with character, a little bit of sass, and great coffee, I highly recommend Wise House. We tried the chocolate rain, which was absolutely delicious and enjoyed the spunk the barista and decor of the shop has to offer.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Quick, friendly service. Pleasant, sunlit ambience. Full menu, covering breakfast and lunch, with all the classics one would expect to see at a diner, plus some unique twists..the flavor to their brand, if you will. All very tasty. I was pleasantly surprised by having a side option of baked beans to go with my breakfast platter. Sizeable portions.And very reasonable prices- eggs, bacon, sausage, 1 side, and 2 French toast (or pancakes), + coffee - less than $20 (before tip).Also super easy to get to with tons of parking right across the street.“

“I had bad service ago and was going to give them a bad bad I left it alone and never back someone said airfield Cafe. I said to that place is I figured that I would go back and give it another shot I'm so glad that I did I was surprised to see Jordan and Nicole they remembered me all the time thanks to the both of them and all the staff they have regained me as on a scale of 1 to 10 A 15 Thanks to Nicole and Jordan remembering me from that long ago it made me feel like I never left I also net two other staff that went above and beyond Thomas and Brandon this is a must to restaurant great Dan???????“

“This is truly a hidden gem. The customer service is friendly and always greet you. The food is fresh, hot, and tasteful. It’s also just a cute and homey environment with lots of knick knacks and gift ideas. I highly recommend the matcha frappe!“

“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.“

“Stopped by here on our drive down to Boston on our way to the airport (driving down from seacoast area New Hampshire). Delightful spot to stop for a meal, and to see the animals. Prepared food and market goods. Prepared food was pretty good, no one is in a rush here so don't stop if you can't spare the time. They also have espresso drinks.Vegetarian options: Some.Dietary restrictions: Few.Parking: Free lot.Kid-friendliness: Oh my yes! Food AND farm animals.Wheelchair accessibility: Yes.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Stopped by for lunch and the paninis were great. This was a great spot to get something to eat and get a drink. We left pretty refreshed. My wife is picky about chai and she loved it. My iced coffee was everything you'd want in a medium roast. There were a variety of sweetener options. Wifi was available and the bathroom was clean. The staff were friendly. My K2 kept saying it was the best lunch ever (chips helped get that review). We were in Feb but I can see the outdoor space working well when it's warmer.“

“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.“

“I explained that I wanted a lazy susan made out of a used red wine barrel and I provided a list of the wine regions that I have visited. They provided a piece of art that is mind blowing. Everyone who has seen it is extremely impressed. They were great to work with and delivered by the date that they promised.“

“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!“

“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.“

“Really good place with real food! Had the egg, sausage and cheese on a plain bagel and coffee with coconut shot. IMO the quality and taste of sandwich and coffee beats Dunkin's or other chains. I haven't tried it for lunch so that will be next.The folks at the counter were really nice and friendly. Worth the stop!If you are short on time just call a few minutes before. Instead of spending time in a drive-thru with subpar food, check this place out and support local business ? (also on the plus size- no odd Dunks smell on your clothes when you leave ?)“

“Went for New Years Eve Karaoke was awesome! Had a blast! To bring in 2024 Spaceman was the highlight but whoever cooked or made the food was out of this world hands down best low key place in Haverhell! And the Bartender makes the best Alabama Slammers! PS i want that poster lol “

“This is my favorite cafe in Haverhill. It feels like home every time you walk in the door! The food is incredible and fresh with a diverse menu and plenty of breakfast / lunch options. The atmosphere is so cozy, and pet-friendly - they feature a “pup-a-cino” with whipped cream and bacon that my dog goes crazy for. The online order-ahead makes things super easy on busy mornings too!“

“This is a place where everyone has something in common. They go there for help. They feed the homeless, provide 3 meals a day and now showers will be accessible. They also have a thrift shop. People go there to eat, pray, get services and resources. I volunteer once a month and bring my little guy with me. He enjoys helping and listening to veteran stories. We eat and pray together and it's always a blessing.“
