“The kitchen is small, but the flavors are big at the Playhouse Cafe. It’s unbelievable what they are capable of creating — this is not your typical movie theater cafe. Great cocktails, a full coffee shop (my favorite place to work on the weekends while the kids catch a movie), the charcuterie board is fabulous, the muffaletta is my favorite sandwich. My kids love the tater tots and chicken fingers. Don’t miss the churro bites for dessert! Best of all — you never need a movie ticket to eat in the cafe, but if you are seeing a movie — you can bring your food/drinks into the theater. Sure beats regular popcorn!Also, trivia nights and live music are so fun — not to be missed!

“We've been coming to the reading room since it opened. We are big fans of the coffee bar especially the hot lattes. We had one yesterday that was delicious, creamy, smooth and had divine chocolate notes. Cup sizing is great too (small = 2 shots, medium = 3 shots, large = 4 shots). They do coffee right in a way that most coffee shops do not!! Staff are always welcoming and kind. Wonderful seating on front porch. Book selection is also great and they will order any book for you! They are the best :)“

“I had a great experience at Bluestone Lane Café, and a big part of that was thanks to Jamie and Stephen. From the moment I sat down, they were both welcoming, attentive, and genuinely friendly, which made the whole visit feel relaxed and enjoyable. They were quick to check in, made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it, and created a really positive vibe without ever feeling overbearing.“

“My daughter-in-law, Amy Sowder-van Erk, brought me here for my first Blue Heron experience, and personally, it met all expectations, and more! I had an excellently crafted cappuccino and decided to try the gluten-free almond cookies (come in a package of 4). For those of you who are gluten-free or gluten sensitive, you know how difficult it is to find that perfectly delicious, made with love, delicacy. These are out of this world and have a full almond taste and are wonderfully chewy. A highly recommended respite for anyone looking for that perfect spot to enjoy your coffee or tea, and dive into a delectably home made perfection.“

“I went here almost every day for a sugar shack iced latte while I was back in town after my dad died. We also got sandwiches several times for lunch as well as pastries. Everything is delicious and the staff are incredibly kind.“

“Food is number one but engaged and present owners set the tone in this buzzing north stamford market/deli. Fresh, generous, creative sandwiches, cool specials and the secret weapon is top notch pizza. The cha cha cha breakfast burrito might just be the morning winner too. Keep it up guys and we will remain regulars!“

“I hate getting coffee, let alone ice coffee; BUT after trying them ONCE I was addicted! The staff is very friendly and are always smiling when you walk in. I drive from Hartford County to get coffee from here and it’s worth it everytime. I tried the Norwalk location, but that did not feel the same as the Stamford location. If you’re in the area, do yourself a service and check them out!“

“We order a bunch of cookies. They were prefect for what we needed and they were extremely accommodating. During our party the folks eating the cookies were in aww of the cookies and wanted to know where we order them from. I told them Bella’s bake shop in Mount Kisco. We have also purchased bread from them at a farmers market and it was delicious! Will continue to purchase products from them. Staff are extremely nice!“

“I’ve been here a few times now and honestly, this location should be the blueprint for the others. The staff is consistently friendly, patient, kind, and genuinely helpful. That alone goes a long way.
This spot is always clean, the drive-thru moves smoothly and efficiently, and most of the time my order is spot on. Even on the rare occasion something is off, the food still tastes good and they are always willing to make it right without any attitude.
I’ve tried a mix of items so far, wraps, drinks, and donuts. On my most recent visit, I had a double sausage egg and cheese wrap with American cheese, peppers, and onions. I asked for black pepper instead of green peppers, but it came with green peppers anyway. That said, it was still very good. Stuffed, cheesy, savory, juicy, and served hot, which is what really matters.
I highly recommend stopping by this Donut Delight. They do things the right way here. Also, they support the Toast app, so don’t forget to enter your number at checkout to earn points and rewards.“

“The store and bathrooms are very clean and the staff is nice. Prices are better than Dunkin and the donuts are as good or better. Coffee is much better and made in a machine fresh. Around $15 for a dozen donuts. $3 for coffee. I have been there multiple times lately.
Prices $$; Coffee ****; Donuts *****, Staff ****1/2, Cleanliness *****“

“I stop at this Dunkin whenever I’m in the area. The staff is friendly, they always make my food and drink to my exact liking and keep the line moving when the store gets crowded while maintaining top service. A specific crew member I’d like to shoutout is Darwin. He greets every customer with a smile and does not get overwhelmed when there is a long line and does a great job of multitasking on register, drinks and the food station. As a former Dunkin employee myself, he provides the level of service I would strive to provide if I was still employed there. I would highly recommend this location.“

“Lovely outdoor seating. One of our favorites“
“The most friendly staff. Wonderfully rich cold brew. Tasty treats. Delicious eats. Open, light atmosphere. Clutch for last minute gifts, market essentials, quality spices, snacks, produce, meat and dairy. Now a full menu (dangerously good crispy potatoes). A very fine establishment! :)“

“Haven't been here in this spot for more than 10 years since I moved northeast part of the state. I missed going here specially back in the days where one cutie used to make me coffee even shared something intimate with me. Ok that's enough info. ������“

“The charming restaurants in this lovely town offered a fantastic experience, particularly the BLT served on sourdough bread. While the chicken sandwich was satisfactory, personal preference might favor chicken breast over thighs. Despite the high volume of customers, the staff demonstrated exceptional efficiency and provided excellent service.“
“This spot is the one I like best. I eat in many restaurants but to this place I go the most. The stuff is very professional and the cooking they cook is so appetizing. I never decline to have a decent dinner in this place. I recommend this place with pleasure.“
“First time buying lunch here I ordered a turkey sandwich with lettuce , tomato, mayonnaise and oil & vinegar. Perfect portion and flavor not too bulky unlike other delis that put so much stuff in the sandwich you’d be overwhelmed. I pretty much ate all in one sitting. I have very sharp ears for some reason I heard him say something after I ordered I forgot to ask to toast the roll. So I saw him put the entire bread with mayonnaise lettuce and tomato on the grill. The guy looked a little grumpy or just his normal demeanor who knows I’ve never been there before lol. Sandwich roll price $9.75 plus tax came out $10.30.“

“Wish they had seating like carvel“
“The atmosphere is casual and friendly with an eclectic assortment of tables and artwork. Seating is very European where tables are shared among different guests. I would not recommend the smoothies. We tried the spinach, avocado, peanut butter and banana smoothie. Honestly, it tasted like water with a peanut butter flavoring. However, we did enjoy the food during our visit. We had a vegan donut, the tofu bowl, and the falafel wrap. The bowl and wrap are on the small side but were both very tasty. The donut was of course sweet and delicious! This is a fun place to sit back, relax and enjoy time with a friend. There are even games available to play - checkers, chess, and tic tac toe were on our table.

“The avocado toast is the best around (IMO) and the shaved brussels sprout/quinoa salad is pretty amazing too. Haven't tried anything I haven't liked, to be honest. Also a great go-to for a hostess gift.“
