For early afternoon coffee, I stopped by Coffee & Kindness. It seemed like a small establishment…read morewith five 2-tops and one 6-top. The interior felt bright and airy, with light woods and cream/off-white tones. The space carried a slightly upscale coffee shop feel, but without the snooty third-wave energy of plastering tasting notes and bean origins everywhere. I got a large cold brew ($5.50) and a pour over ($6). At the pour over's price point, I would have expected more than one coffee bean option. Service came across as cordial, with my pour over brought out to the table. The establishment offered free Wi-Fi; even on a Labor Day afternoon, multiple people set up to work.

Was traveling for the weekend and decided to stop here for some breakfast. I was told the owner…read morealso has a gluten allergy so there are always gluten free items on the menu. The service was very good. I wound up getting the gluten free waffle which was delicious. Wouldn't even know it's gluten free. It had a great flavor and texture. I asked if there was fruit to add on it but there was not at the time but the employee was nice enough to offer a raspberry jam as an alternative. They also make and have real maple syrup. I got an iced coffee to drink with oat milk. I enjoyed the coffee. There's street parking. I came on a Sunday so the parking was free. Quaint place. Your order then get a number and sit at a table and they bring your items to you. Just a couple seats outside. They also carried a few gluten free desserts like cookies and brownies and have season banana bread. I'll have to go back and try them another time.

Cold brew time!…read more Nice coffee shop with optional boozy coffee or just yummy regular coffees. They have plenty of spacious seating and a nice variety of coffee options. The cold brew is very good and they can add any flavors if you like! They also have a nice looking display of pastries and cookie. They serve breakfast and lunch but we always stop for coffee. The workers are always nice and friendly and they never rush us to order.

I would give it 4 starts except for the cheap plastic fake plants, the very ugly stained and partially unaligned ceiling tiles (seriously, can the owner not manage to at least replace or realign some of these?), and someone's decision to put down a cheap laminate floor; they could also stand to replace 1-2 of their cheap furniture pieces with something a little more comfortable. All this gives it that "cheap" somewhat trashy Nashua feel. Still, an okay location to hang and listen to tunes for a snack, coffee or a break.

So, how to begin? I…read morelove coffee, my wife loves coffee, and for many years we have preferred to drink it hot and black. We are far from being kids any more so the need for sugar and milk/cream to mask the sometimes burnt or bitter taste no longer fits with our health and longevity goals, In the past, we drank coffee for the delightful effects of caffeine and we still do! However, about five years ago we discovered the world of specialty coffee and that was a revelation. We now drink coffee for the taste, the taste shaped by growing region, bean variety, soil, altitude, and a competent roaster. The main issue with seeking out such delicious coffees is affordability. Today, you can order all kinds of exotic specialty coffees from many fine roasters throughout the world and we still do. We just didn't want to go broke! What we needed was to find a local coffee roaster who could supply us with diverse, high quality coffee beans at a reasonable cost. We have found that roaster and it is King David Coffee Roasters located in Nashua, NH. We buy only whole bean, light roasted coffee from King David. Our favorites so far are: Organic Fair Trade Peru, Costa Rica Tarrazu, Ethiopian Harrah, and Tanzania Peaberry. We drink those coffees on a daily basis, but do stray every now and then and buy pricier coffees from other quality roasters. We do like our coffee! Since discovering King David we have been quite pleased with the quality of their beans and their value pricing. King David also stocks several dark roasted coffees. We don't drink dark roast, we don't like dark roast, we don't buy dark roast, so we withhold judgement on those coffees. King David does offer an espresso blend which we haven't tried, but our friend who we referred to King David bought their espresso blend and reported it made a very delicious espresso. King David is located upstairs in an older industrial/mill building on Bridge Street in Nashua. If you have the opportunity to visit them, you should - the atmospherics are quite charming, heavy beams, high ceilings, heavy doors, it's all there. The King David space is quite large and the center of attention is their Diedrich coffee roaster. You'll also be greeted by the owner/operator/roaster Carolyn Whitehouse. Whenever I drop in to pick up my beans she is there, and always busy with roasting, packaging, sales, etc. Sometimes there is a second person helping with production tasks but Carolyn is the entrepreneur carrying the heavy daily responsibilities. If you're lucky, you'll be there during a roasting session - ah, the Smokey coffee aromas are so wonderful. If you're very, very lucky, you'll be there during a maple coffee or maple popcorn production run. What a sweet and wonderful aroma! On those days, Carolyn hands you your bag of beans and that aroma is carried out of the building with that bag. It stays with you in your vehicle, gently fading away during your drive home! Of course, you could always skip the visit to King David, order your beans online through their website and avoid the entire sensory experience. Your beans will be delivered to your house via express mail - efficient but not nearly so memorable! King David offers frequent discounts on their offerings. You can check out their offerings through their website www.kingdavidcoffee.com They also have a Facebook page. We take advantage of King David's sales, buying several pounds each time with free shipping. We vacuum pack the beans in individual doses, and keep them in the freezer. This works out very well for us, as we are never out of fresh beans. If you are an avid coffee drinker you really should check out King David Coffee Roasters. Find them on their website, order a bag (ground or whole bean, your choice). Give them a try. These are good people, providing a great product at a fair price. If you love coffee as much as we do - you can't go wrong!

The staff was very helpful in answering the questions I had about their products. Overall, a great experience. I need to go back and try some more of their stuff.

I can call ahead to have my food ready when I arrive. My go-to here is the Salmon Burger. Oh. My. God. This isn't a trendy restaurant, it's a laid back coffee shop offering this amazing gem. The Salmon Burger is cooked on request, and is always tasty. I think it is frozen, but who cares? It still comes out delicious. I opt for lettuce, tomato, swiss, and tartar sauce. The bun is toasted on the grill, which adds so much more to the flavor. I argue it's reasonably priced ($6.50) and it's something different. I only go here on occasion but when I do, this is what I will usually get. I have had other things (sandwiches, steak and cheese subs) and they are also delicious.

Ambiance is nice aesthetically, but it's set up more like a breakfast place than a cafe, with only hard seating and tables. It would definitely be nice to have some couches or soft seating. I've ordered a latte here multiple times and I've seen several different people make the drink. Unfortunately the milk wasn't frothed correctly any of these times and the foam was bubbly, not glossy, which is really the heart of what makes a good latte for me. So if you're there for good simple coffee that was a turn off. Their Cup of Love and other hot flavored specialty drinks do make very tasty very rich dessert drinks though. So I think on that they do well but I can't have that everyday or I'll be gaining pounds.

As soon as you walk in someone greets you and they are nice and eager to help you find what you're looking for. I also appreciate their willingness to provide recommendations! It's a quiet little corner shop that I will definitely visit again for lunch, and maybe they will have some GF options in the future!
