50 Best Cafes near Shrewsbury

“Excellent Cakes and desserts!!!“

“I did not, in fact, eat here. I just used the bathroom. I often use the bathrooms at panera because they're clean & typically smell of a delightful fruit or herb. I occasionally buy an asiago bagel or coffee as thanks for having stellar facilities. The asiago bagels are awesome and you should eat some. But they usually sell out early, by lunch, so that's a bummer.“

“great chai latte amazing food cute place!!“

“Out of town - was looking for a nice lunch outside of Worcester. Found this spot and looked delicious from the photos.

Outstanding authentic Italian sandwiches rivaling any and all of those in our home of New York.

Impeccably clean. I mean the hand crank meat slicer blade literally was a mirror. You can tell this couple really takes pride in their food, and food safety of their clients.

Tough parking, and limited seats, but dont let that stop you. This place is a must stop for delicious, authentic Italian sandwiches and wraps.“

“My wife and I took our 3 year old daughter to check out this new coffee shop after it came up in a Google search. Let me say I had not met the couple that owns the shop before today, and yet I have never felt so invested in wanting to see a new shop succeed as much as I did this one! The owners are a lovely young couple, extremely friendly, and accommodating. They love what they do and it shows in the quality of the food. I ordered the Pi (egg sandwich) and a cold brew coffee. Both were excellent. They roast their own coffee beans and it had just the right amount of roasted coffee flavor. There were a dozen other things I wanted to try, including the creme brulee cheescake, the baklava cheese cake, and the Greek pies. My wife got a hot coffee with almond milk, mocha and peppermint. I like my coffee creamy, and this was the first coffee with almond milk that tasted good to me. I have found my new favorite coffee shop in the area. Whatever you're doing, drop it and visit Coffee & Pi now!“

“The staff, food & coffee was amazing! So glad we discovered this place.“

“First time at First Bite today for brunch - everything we ordered was excellent. Our new favorite breakfast spot. Flights of waffles, pancakes and french-toast, eggs-benedict (Irish) with corned beef hash and what had to be a homemade english muffin, bagel breakfast egg & cheese sandwich and junior breakfast with CRISPY BACON - they asked how you want it regular or crispy. Love THAT. And the hollandaise sauce spot on! Great coffees too.“

“We brought three generations to Special Teas to fulfill my mother’s wish to have tea with her daughters and granddaughter. It was a lovely way to spend a fall afternoon. The service was fantastic and staff were very attentive. The variety in teas allowed everyone in our group the opportunity to experience unique tea flavors. The food and desserts were phenomenally delicious and traditional and paired well with the tea fare. Thank you for giving us a wonderful afternoon and a memory that will last a lifetime.“

“We went for dinner last night & everything was delicious!!! Bill & Jannette were fantastic! Two of us had the veal, one had the seafood medley & I had the chicken salad wrap. We also got the tuna ahi appetizer & a complimentary amuse-bouche. We can’t wait to go back! If you haven’t been there yet, you’re missing out. Also BYOB which is great 🍻🍷“

“I highly recommend stopping into Up Hill Nutrition!!! They have the best Waffles on Fridays and the best energy liftoff Teas!! The atmosphere is welcoming and cozy. The team behind the bar are always happy and take the time to say hello. Great place to hangout with friends and catch up! 😊“

“Nice little coffee place. The coffee it self is kinda w.e and just pretty sure its pot coffee. The baked goods and sandwich are where its at and better quality then I expected.

They dont have espresso, which I thought was odd but its only a small gripe.

Plenty of parking and enough seating for about 20 people.“

“Amazing people, very professional and a pleasure to see when I get out for coffee which is Amazing. went with my mom last time who ordered an everything bagel and she said it's the best she's had. I highly recommend this place!“

“I went for the first time, even though I didn’t care for what I ordered, I will go back again! ( I tried something new) The two people working were very friendly. They made every effort when I told them I didn’t care for my meal. I ended up with bagel and cream cheese that was really. My friend had a blt, she loved it. It’s comfy and nicely decorated.“

“We stopped here for breakfast while passing though the state. The staff was very friendly and accommodating to our large group. The food was delicious and portions were large. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone and would love to come back again. ❤️“

“Come for the coffee and bagels, stay for the gear.

Got a great bagel and red eye, ended leaving with a smoking tele clone with case. The vibes are unmatched; where else can you noodle out on some very cool guitars, boutique and restored pedals, and some nice tube amps?“

“Happened across this place while traveling through Worcester. The inside houses the retail shop and the roastery. It was cool to see all their coffee processing and roasting equipment. The retail space was clean and bright and cheery. The drip coffee was good. The espresso was even better. There was a tremendous selection of single origin beans from all over the world in a variety of roasts. I chose an African light roast (Burundi Hafi) to take home. I brewed some this morning and was blown away. No sourness, no acidity, it tasted to like a high quality milk chocolate. The price of $22 a pound is very reasonable for such a high quality product.“

“My new favorite in Northampton“

“The personal service is as amazing as the food!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Awesome service! Good food and great customer satisfaction! Definitely a place to take my money!“

“Friendly folks, delicious goodies, fabulous musical guests!“

“We ordered the Turkey Avocado bacon Sandwhich with squash soup and the grilled cheese with a chicken noodle soup.The turkey Sandwhich was really good along with the squash soup,the squash soup was very sweet though,it must have sugar in it,when we make homemade squash soup it's not sweet at all,but more natural,still worth ordering though,the grilled cheese looked good as well,defiantly worth checking Panara bread out

Vegetarian options: For dietary ask how much sugar is in the Squash soup“

“We were in the area and decided to stop by for “brunch”. Portions were large, food was fresh and delicious.“

“My family and I had the greatest experience there today such delicious food and friendly staff.“

“Denise and her team just catered my wedding this past Saturday. We are so beyond pleased with everything. Presentation was splendid. Our guests loved the food (especially the crab cakes!) and there was plenty of food to ensure everyone was full. And then the dessert was utterly over-the-top. My grandmother, who hardly ever indulges in sweets, ate about 10 blueberry tarts. The macarons (my #1 request) were all delicious. Beyond everything, the reason to work with Elm’s Cafe is because of Denise. She was a delight to work with- relaxed, attentive, detail-oriented. She made sure my vision came to life and went out of her way to help us.“

“love their selection of ice creams and toppings and not to forget their coffees are good too!!“

“I loved Red Barn! Their coffee is great and there is outdoor seating.“

“Did a morning cars & coffee event here - plenty of parking, cute place with a great vibe - nice, friendly and helpful staff greet you with genuine smiles. Bought coffee beans and they ground them for me, got a coffee and corn muffin on the grill - both were perfect. 10/10 for me - will return again.“

“I finally had the Smash Burger and it was off the chart!! Sooooo Good👍“

“We love Sweet Java! Everything is absolutely delicious and made with love! It has a wonderful atmosphere. The Grecian Acai bowls are to die for!!! Yum! ❤️“

“We ordered one of each of their special dogs to share and they were all amazing! My fave was the homewrecker and husband loved the Reuben. We will definitely be back when we are in the area!“

“Lovely spot - worth going out of your way for those blueberry pancakes. Cappuccino was great too. Only complaint is that they charge you for a full cup of coffee if you’re getting a refill after a cappuccino. How about a dollar off at least! Besides that, really pretty location and clear attention to quality.“

“I love the food here. The iced coffee and teas are great too. 😋🍕☕🍵🥤“

“Coffee is good, frappes and smoothies are the best. Soft bagels and yummy brownies. They have a really good menu and great customer service“

“While I have eaten in the bakery, I have also done multiple deliveries with Festive Breads as well. They never disappoint! I send gift baskets in lei of flowers for various occasions, especially for those grieving the loss of a loved one. I know first hand how it feels to be the recipient of their baskets in the early days of grieving. Pam and her team take special care in the selection, quantity and freshness all packages beautifully. Thank you, Festive Breads!“

“Culpeppers has a great selection of food and pastries. Very friendly staff. Open 6 till 2“

“The place to be for bikers and friends.“

“I would recommend the food is wonderful, usually the service is good! Almost always! Two weeks ago I was here and the girl that was at the register left the register because she was under pressure because supposedly I ordered too many things! She walked away crying if you can’t handle the pressure don’t work somewhere! I asked if you was upset with me I ordered you pick 2 cream of broccoli soup one turkey bravo half of sandwich a cup of iced coffee and some chicken for my dog one orange scone! So what’s the problem! I don’t know today when I went back to Panera bread the girl with the yellow nails was so nice to me, she is a great worker, but come to find out, the nice Brazilian girl in the kitchen said you complains last time and you made the girl cry I said how did I complain I never complained! Maybe she was just having a bad day but not because of me! I felt kind of off guard when I went to pick up my food, So again if you can’t handle the pressure don’t work at Panera bread! It’s my money and I spend it where I want to spend it I work hard for it so Customer is always right I wasn’t rude I was always pleasant every time I come here or anywhere I go me and my service dog! I like an apology from Panera bread this is a palling very disturbing! If I ask for something extra I pay extra for it bottom line the customers always right, if you want them to return! Treat them well, & leave your problems at home don’t bring them to work with you blaming others that your upset with them when in fact it’s something else that’s going on in your life! I did not treat her badly at all! For the record the rest of the staff is very nice, but when the girl started crying of course I felt very bad for her I thought someone died in her family or something no one told me that she was upset with me! Course I feel still feel bad for the poor girl maybe somethings happening in her life that she took it out on me on the customer don’t bring your problems to work! I hope that the manager talks to the girl to comfort her what ever she is upset with! But I know it was not me!“

“Please support this local business. Cozy ambiance and delicious food and drink.“

“I am a returning customer! I’ve done my bridal shower here and just had my baby shower. We were very happy with the food buffet, ambiance, price point, and planning. Maria, the manager, is easy to work with, kind and professional! I’ve done extensive research on so many restaurant venues in the Worcester area, and this place I would recommend for its excellent value. Thank you to Maria and the team for all their hard work!“
