Food was average, atmosphere is kind of dark but plenty of space for seating. I ordered an Italian wrap that had way too much Italian dressing, and coleslaw that was super thick with mayonnaise. Beyond that, it's a decent lunch spot but nothing to go crazy over.

Went for an art show. Got to listen to a live musician and check it high school artists who are top notch thanks to the Hoyt Institute.

Was in the area and had some time to kill, so we came here for breakfast. It’s an odd place. It is huge and has tons of seating. Their espresso drinks were okay, and breakfast sandwiches were comparable to Dunkin Donuts. Service was okay.It looks like a great space to rent out for events. They do offer free wi-fi.I will not be returning here.

I stopped by after an nearby appointment. I had a double espresso and a cheese danish. Espresso was served in a large cup, with the clerk’s apology stating they did not have espresso cups. This is very resource wasting and very odd for a coffee shop. The danish pastry was very dense and wide, i had several bites if the dough before I got to the excellent cream center.The espresso had a nice flavor, but due to the large cup, got cold very quickly.Please get some proper espresso cups so we can drink and experience its aromas before it gets too cold.

I hosted my sister’s bridal shower at The Confluence with owner Mandy’s expert assistance. My day job is, in-part, as an event planner, so I am familiar with the many components required to host a good party.The Confluence is charming and comfortable as a setting. I loved the soft lighting. Mandy and our additional help for the day, Megan, were wonderful. They accommodated our many requests. The Confluence has open space for spreading out a large group and movable seating to help with many event styles. Everything was set up just as discussed when we arrived to decorate. Mandy even permitted my family extra time to prepare the space.Parking is available along the street and in the plaza directly across E Washington St. Traffic was light on the Saturday of the event, so our guests had no trouble crossing over. That section of New Castle holds fond memories for me as I’ve attended several music nights at The Confluence and next door at the amphitheater.I was truly impressed with the menu that Mandy can prepare. Again, I’ve worked with many caterers in my career. We chose fresh, bright options - salad, fruit, slider sandwiches, dips, etc. - for an early afternoon shower. Everything was delicious. I especially enjoyed the chicken salad. In terms of service, I never had to worry about coffee or other beverages running low. Mandy and Megan frequently checked for me and replaced carafes.Finally, I want to mention how special it is that The Confluence constantly gives back to the New Castle community. The connection to Cray Family, library on the premises, and evidence of other organizations using the space to meet, warmed my heart. It was an honor to work with The Confluence knowing that the money my family spent would support residents in need.I highly recommend Mandy and The Confluence.
