This is an excellent place to bring a laptop and get some work done. There are plenty of outlets and large tables. The coffee is delicious and the team is friendly :)

The Works is a solid coffee and deli shop that makes for a perfect stop if you're driving through Brattleboro on your way to New Hampshire. The town itself is cute and definitely worth a quick leg stretch to walk around.
We stopped in as we walked by, and the experience was great:
• Food: The lunch food was good, and the pastries and cookies were excellent.
• Amenities: This is a very comfortable place to take a break—they offer free WiFi, a clean bathroom, and plenty of seating.
Overall, it's a reliable, clean, and comfortable spot for a lunch break or coffee. I recommend it!

The Works Café is a cute and busy spot. The smoothies were good, but the service was unfriendly. I’ve never seen any of the employees smile or even greet customers. The sandwiches we got were cold and lacked flavor, and the tables were dirty. The coffee was just okay too. Overall, it’s an alright option if you’re in the area, but not something I’d go out of my way for.

I stopped by Good Works Coffee House while visiting from Massachusetts, and while the coffee itself was excellent, the overall experience was a bit mixed.

The first thing that really threw me off was the bathroom setup. You need a door code to enter, which is fine in theory, but even though I locked it from the inside, someone else with the same code still walked in while I was using it. That was really uncomfortable and not okay, and it took away from the experience.

Service at the counter felt a bit tired, like they might’ve been at the end of a long shift. That said, there were a few other staff members working who were so kind and genuinely pleasant to talk to — their friendliness made a real difference and balanced out the experience.

The dark roast coffee was rich, smooth, and flavorful, and I appreciated the self-serve setup for refills, which makes it easy to stay and enjoy a cup at your own pace. The Wi-Fi is strong and reliable, perfect for catching up on work or studying. The café itself has a rustic, cozy atmosphere with warm wooden interiors and the inviting smell of fresh coffee and baked goods.

Overall, great coffee, friendly people, and a relaxing vibe, but the bathroom setup could use some attention. With a few small improvements, this could easily be a five-star spot.

Front cashier was rude, because I asked for specials that were on the board but they were out. Then I got an iced chai. I tasted no chai and a heavy coffee taste I was told there iced chai contains expresso which I've never heard of before. It's a non chain penera with less charm

Smoothies are mostly ice, but cheap at least. Food is mediocre they do have a lot of options tho. Atmosphere is nice a lot of sitting area.
