26 Best Cafes near Windham

“A great coffee shop in an area that was desperately in need of a non-chain giant coffee option. Located at Refuge Church with tons of parking available in the free lot with lots of other stores nearby. The cafe has a large and inviting spot. Good mix of hot and cold drink options including some specialty flavored drinks too (iced or hot). Some bakery/sweets options as well but did not try any of that. I tried their iced M&H Latte and my fiancée got their Iced Rasmo. Staff were extremely friendly and drinks were made quickly. Surprised I don’t hear more people talking about this spot. A worthwhile spot to check for coffee lovers!“

“Great coffee, cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Plus awesome book selection!“

“I do not support this place. They are closed today due to lack of staff. They fired me via text because I have health problems. However I would have gone in and saved their butts today if they just gave me my job back“

“Very friendly and honest with recommendations as it was my first time in. The food is pretty healthy and is typical cafe offerings like melts, bakery, salad, etc.

Great price for exchange. Unclear but I believe the drip coffee and tea are complimentary with purchase....They serve breakfast all day, I just was here for lunch though. I would return after this visit.“

“My husband, MIL, and myself were visiting Maine all the way from NC and came here TWICE during our visit. First was brunch, then dinner. Both meals were exceptional. Our waitress(I wish I could remember her name, but she has long, red hair), gave the best service I have ever experienced in my life! This will definitely be a spot we must visit everytime we come up ❤️“

“They have delicious breakfast burritos and breakfast bowls. Great customer service, friendly and smiling! I can't wait to try their lunch! Thank you Cote's!“

“Josh is a 2 time award winning coffee whisperer. Also there’s an iced malt coffee you need“

“So, I'll say, Wowww, as I lick my fingers after my last three mini donuts from heaven! We found 88 donut after finishing at Highrollers around the corner and made another stop the next day before returning to Boston. Bite-sized, hot, made to order and a complete party in your mouth. These can be addictive 😍
I live in DC and looked to see if they shipped :) but they don't. Check them out if you're in the area.“

“Panera is a place where I worked when in secondary schools. It's been a place of quality standards. The foods are a treat, and similarly to years ago, if my diet includes animal products, then the frontera chicken sandwich is my go-to out of habit.

Appreciate the thought for the newer $7.99 meal deals. They are excellent for a small bite, any of you other lithe, agile & nimble travelers out there.

Salads and treats are delicious on special occasions.

Beverages are always fresh and ready. The teams make it flow beautifully.

This location is a delight, with a fire in the fire place for cozy vibes.

Thank you to Panera for quality, consistency, and comfort.

The hours of operation are super for early birds.“

“Uncharted Tea is, without a doubt, the best boba tea spot I’ve ever been to — and I don’t say that lightly. Most boba shops these days rely on powdered mixes or churn out drinks that taste like generic, sweetened milkshakes. But Uncharted Tea is in a league of its own.

They use real, freshly brewed tea as the base — not powder — which gives their drinks a depth and authenticity that’s hard to find anywhere else. On top of that, their customization game is next-level. You can choose from a range of quality sweeteners like maple syrup, agave, or simple syrup, and a variety of milk options to suit any taste or dietary need.

Every drink I’ve had here has been vibrant, thoughtfully balanced, and just flat-out delicious. It’s clear they care about craft, ingredients, and the overall experience. If you’re anywhere near Portland and you’re even mildly into boba, do yourself a favor and check this place out. You won’t look at other boba shops the same way again.“

“The café at Books a Million (BAM) had a cheerful and efficient barista at 9:30am. A mid-sized Café Americano was surprisingly inexpensive. The café offered limited indoor seating at tables and in plush reading chairs beside end tables. It also had outdoor patio seating. It had good onsite public WiFi. Plenty of free parking was available. I'll be back! Nothing beats sipping a good coffee at BAM while looking through the best sellers for a new book to read on a Maine beach or on a flight out of nearby PWM.“

“Fork Food Lab is a heaven for any aspiring food entrepreneur that want to establish their food business or an already in market food business that wants to accelerate their growth without having to worry about capital expenses.I love the location and the easy accessibility. I love the atmosphere inside the place because they have almost everything that any food business would want.The team is amazing and very welcoming. I got to be shown around and everything at the place shows that the organization really cares about the people they work with.This is definitely a must visit place for any food business that wants to grow in Maine.“

“Very friendly and very yummy“

“Adorable little cafe with cozy vibes and delicious coffee. My cozyside latte was so good. I also really appreciate their commitment to eco-friendliness. All of their disposable items are compostable, the trash cans are all compost bins, and the for here cups are reusable glasses. So many places only serve their coffee in disposable cups so I have a lot of love for the places that still serve coffee in real glassware“

“We had so much fun making our terrariums!“
