40 Best Cafes near Newington

“They are just such a pleasant coffee shop the owner is just so friendly such a cozy atmosphere and there coffee is UNBELIEVABLE definitely recommended one of my favorite places in the Newington Mall if not my favorite shop in the mall such a hidden gem“

“Two Bees was such a delightful find! Everything about them was perfection. Walking into the cafe, the decor is lovely with a beautiful outdoor patio overlooking the river. The staff was so sweet and just lovely authentic people. But the offerings they had were simply divine. Their croissant was reminiscent of European quality, all their ingredients were fresh and tasty, but the best thing was their passion fruit tart- outstanding! Very highly recommend this place!“

“The decor and the coffee takes me back directly to Turkiye. Looking to go back and try other things!“

“Stopped in for our first time to grab some lunch, and wow! Absolutely delicious!!! We got the chicken salad and the Italian and both were the freshest tasting sandwiches we’ve had in a long time! I was so excited to see that they use boars head for their meat and it comes with a generous portion to say the least!! We are hooked!! The owners are very nice and transformed this spot beautifully! I can’t forget to mention that I had to grab the Shain’s of Maine cookie dough ice cream as a family favorite treat!! If you’re in the area definitely make a stop in!! I can’t wait to try more of their menu and the soups they have to offer!! 🙌🏼 10/10!“

“love love love their food. especially there glazed krella. I'm sure I spelled krella wrong. anyway I could eat a dozen of them“

“Great vibes, great people!“

“I love this place. Everyone is just so friendly and warm. It's so nice to be in a place that remembers that I am your consumer. I'm consuming your thaichovski with a little chocolate and a shot (no rum though, weak!)....But I'm also consuming your smiles, your good energy and your kindness. Thanks for keeping me going all day! See you tomm! Love, Wonderwoman“

“This is definitely one of the best coffee shops around the UNH campus area. The employees always welcome me, are eager to tell me what's new on the menu, and are very accommodating with drink and food orders. One of my favorite things to get is their sweet crepes (the picture I took was of the strawberry and chocolate crepe) and a matcha latte. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it a perfect place to study. I also love their mission to raise awareness about human trafficking and how everyone can do their part to help prevent it.“

“If you're in Newmarket, June's Café is a must-visit! The espresso is rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced—one of the best I've had locally. And The Loomer sandwich... absolutely delicious! Fresh ingredients, great flavor, and so satisfying. Cozy atmosphere and lovely service, too. Highly recommend! ☕🥪💛“

“Cute and charming combination of coffee shop, souvenirs, market, licquor, and more. Their wraps and burgers are very tasty and fulfilling! They have a variety of health prepared food too!! The staff is friendly and the cook is a chef! I’ve stopped here for lunch many times - my favorite dish is the Scramblin Burrito!“

“Great iced coffee!! Has alt. milks like oatmilk 💕🥛🌾“

“amazing food at a reasonable price. anadama bread is awesome.“

“Love Flamingos Coffee Bar! It's refreshingly pro-women ;) Their coffee menu is so creative, and my latte was fabulous (thanks for the recommendation, fellow customer!). Please expand to the Nashua area, I'll be your first and incredibly loyal customer!“

“I’ve been working for companies at Pease on and off for a dozen years now and Belle Peppers has been my go-to lunch spot for just as long. In addition, my company frequently orders catering from them so I don’t think I go more than a couple of days without eating something from Belle Peppers. The staff is always friendly and I’ve never had a disappointing experience. It definitely gets busy around lunchtime but if you go there regularly like me you know how to get in and get out quickly. Try the spicy chicken sandwich!“

“I love Sunny Cafe! Everyone is friendly, the atmosphere is lively and relaxing and the drinks are delish! It’s such a cheerful and lovely place. Our new favorite coffee shop! 😍💓✨☕️☀️“

“The pastries were fresh and crisp, the service was phenomenal and the decor was authentic“

“These girls at this aromas are amazing. I’m typically a mess when I show up because I haven’t had my caffeine yet and they make me laugh always get my order right and quick and sometimes leave me encouragement on my cup. I didn’t typically shop here until I moved to the town, but it’s my new favorite place to buy coffee and caffeine. Bros for life“

“James and Ashley are some of my favorite baristas! One day they were out of egg white veggie bite things and she reccomended (cause I’m vegetarian) to take the bacon off one of the sandwiches. I ended up getting what I needed to start my day so thank you so much for the help.
And James is always friendly and I get stoaked when I see him WERK.“

“I remember when the cafe was under construction 🚧. I finally had a chance to visit and I am glad I did!
Very friendly service. I had the Upstream with an Asiago bagel 🥯 with smoked salmon, pickled onion 🧅, avocado 🥑 and chive cream cheese. Delicious 😋!
The service really shined when I asked if they had chocolate 🥐 croissants. I was offered a Nutella Croissant which is a croissant sliced with Nutella in the center. Strawberries 🍓 are sliced and placed with it. Also delicious!
The medium roast drip coffee ☕ was really good!
Both my orders were brought to where I was sitting. The inside is nice 👍 with window 🪟 and couch 🛋️ seating.
Update: August 2025; The Cable Asiago Bagel 🥯 Sandwich was delicious 😋! I am not a fan of blueberry 🫐 muffins but the one I had was heated and served with a tasty butter 🧈. It washed down my coffee ☕ rather well!
I was told they are on their third 🥉 year. Congratulations 🎉!
I am going to recommend this cafe!“

“The food is awesome…… it doesn’t matter what you choose you will leave happy and full.

The customer service is excellent, and they make you feel welcome.

Give them a shot, you’ll be glad you did!“

“We ate here today for the first time and it was amazingly fresh and delicious. The food was outstanding and the coffee was top notch. The gentleman working the front was very pleasant and friendly. We will be back.“

“The service is pretty typical of youth run franchise salad places. The communication is awkward and halting and brusk. They definitely appear as if you've interrupted an important tiktok video and are annoyed at your presence. The salads are good and it works if you are just grabbing lunch and going otherwise it's oddly sterile and unwelcoming“

“Great space, finally made it over the other day and wish I had sooner! Big batch of coffee was about depleted at that moment so she made a quick pour over and it was delicious! Plus…Kitties!!!“

“GM Matt and his team are always fantastic and accommodating. I work for the Uni and The Works is our go-to lunch spot since it's so easy to order and pick it up from them. If you're placing a larger order, you can shoot them an email and they'll even write people's names on each package so you don't have to play the guessing game when distributing food. The day-old rack also offers a great deal on bagels and treats. Don't forget to sign up for the Rewards program so you can rack up points and snag some freebies.“

“One best breakfast wrap I ever had ..great place“

“Fine pastries made by chef Sharif and his team… great espresso with a French vibe all the way down to the bistro chairs and marble top tables situated in a picturesque cobblestone alley overhung by ivy and beautiful trees. Portsmouth’s greatest hidden gem that everyone seems to know about.“

“Henry’s is such a great spot. The coffee is excellent smooth, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The people here are super friendly and make you feel welcome right away, which really adds to the experience.

As someone who often works from coffee shops, I really appreciate a comfortable environment, good temperature control, and strong Wi-Fi and Henry’s checks most of those boxes.

The only reason I didn’t rate it a five is because there were quite a few fruit flies around the seating area. It’s not a deal-breaker, but it does make it a little hard to focus when you’re trying to get work done. I totally get that these things can be tough to manage, but hopefully it’s something that can be addressed soon.

Otherwise, this place is awesome great drinks, great people, and a really inviting vibe.“

“delicious.. great food. next time we are in the area we will be back“

“Our first time eating at Gallivant was yesterday. It was fantastic. The place is beautiful with open brick everywhere and completely decorated for the holidays… Everyone from the chef to our server were very attentive and welcoming. The food was outstanding! We will be back for sure and all of Dover & beyond should get over to this great establishment!“

“When I need to eat healthy, fresh and delicious food, this is the stop. When I’m craving a sweet treat, this is the stop! Ohhh…I could go for one of those completely over the top Pop Tarts right now“

“If you told me the world was ending tomorrow and I could only eat at one more place. I would without any hesitation say I'm going to the Trackside Cafe. Whenever someone asks me where to go in the seacoast it's my go to recommendation. I love it.“

“Highly recommend this store - great selection, knowledgeble staff, convenient location and parking.“

“Went there on Wednesday for breakfast with 9 other good lady friends. The wait staff was exceptional and the food delicious. Will be back soon. Great Job Everyone“

“I’ll be straight: I’m addicted to AJs Rush & I promised my husband I wouldn’t get one again after drinking one everyday for far too many days. That shit gets your blood pumping & they taste so damn good! That said, I still sneak them when I can because they are that good. Don’t tell my husband!“

“Love this place. The bread is incredible (buy a loaf to take home!) and the soups/sandwiches are consistently great. It has a really warm, rustic feel to it that makes you want to hang out for a while. Fast service and good prices for the quality. Highly recommend!“

“So grateful Works Cafe opened a location near Crossgates Mall (Guilderland/Albany)! Only a couple minutes from I-87, worth the stop! Great smoothies, bowls, bagels, sandwiches, and bring your coffee mug to fill for a discount. Best loyalty program too! Earn points! My favorite smoothies… Carrot Mango with added protein and the Kale Crush with added protein. Great for after a workout or when on the run! The folks working there are the BEST TOO!“

“I found myself in Exeter and this coffee shop largely by accident. The price was a pleasant surprise. The server was good and told me he'd need to brew up a batch of the coffee and if I could wait. He brought it over when it was ready. Bonus points for playing some Aphex Twin.“

“I've been to a lot of Paneras and this is one of the Paneras that I have been to.

I have eaten food at a lot of Paneras and the food I had hear tasted like the food I've had at other ones.

It is and does what it says on the tin.“

“Your basic Panera Bread. Service here was good. They let my son have a bag of chips with his Mac and Cheese, which he devoured! I had a freebie through the app and rewards program so I had a half Ciabatta Cheesesteak. The taste started out sweet then had a spicy 🔥 bite at the end.
The place was tidy, including the bathroom. WiFi available.
I hope they will have Mac and Cheese with broccoli 🥦. It is one of the successful ways I can get my kids to eat broccoli.
If you like Panera Bread, I recommend this one.“
