By far my favorite coffee shop in Dover, maybe even the Seacoast. I just recently finished my masters and it was my #1 favorite study spot. I now love to go and meet friends, have meetings, or just have a delicious coffee. Whenever I am having a meeting in Dover I am always pushing for it to be at Breakaway. The atmosphere is perfect and the coffee is a quality that requires intentional dedication. Delicious and smooth. read more

Great breakfast, friendly service, seating can be unpredictable as it's a busy spot. Can't wait to try items from the lunch menu. read more

The ambiance is my favorite thing about this restaurant. A friend of mine and I caught up the other day and were there for three hours. It was so comfortable and warm and we enjoyed the company as well as the food. read more

This place was ranked #1 coffee in NH by an influencer who comes across my feed from time to time. The girl working yesterday 6/10 was so nice and accommodating and workshopped a latte to be exactly what my friend wanted. This place is so cute on the inside and the vibes are really good, it's a good mix of people talking and working. They also supposedly have live music from time to time. Parking alongside the building. I liked it. read more

I got a quad shot w ice for $4 and a jalapeño cheddar bagel w cream cheese. The bagels seem fresh made and they are fluffy and flavorful. The espresso was very light and not dark or bitter. They have simple syrup at the napkin station which is nice. SUPER busy, hard to find a seat. Music was sorta loud but I like the vibe otherwise . Lots of craft beans for sale but pretty expensive. It's giving young/trendy thrifty read more

Love Breakaway! Love their tea lattes, bagels, vegan options and LOVE their Lovebirds Donuts on the weekends.

I found this gem a few minutes before meeting a potential new client in Dover. "Flight Coffee and more," it should be called. If you know me, you know I am a sucker for Coffee. Today was a low-fat Chai, and it was delicious. It must have done something right, because they are now a definite new client. I get to come back more :) There is a nice mix of customers and repeat customere/workers as I see a bunch of folks working away while sipping their drinks and snacks. Breakfast, lunch and many drink options, make a point to stop in and check them out. Staff was very friendly and helpful. read more

Really nice people, really bad espresso. Even in a Cortado, the acidity was terrible. I'm actually surprised the milk didn't curdle. I hate not going back because the staff was friendly and efficient even though they were very busy, but the espresso was just undrinkable. read more

A great local coffee shop with a cozy vibe with plenty of space. The coffee itself was very good, and the food selection is not lacking either. I would love to stop by here again if i'm in the area and try a breakfast or lunch item :) read more

Flight is a cozy spot for coffee and food, with good wifi for the worker bees. My boyfriend and I came by on a rainy morning instead of working from home. It was crowded but thankfully a table cleared up soon after we got there. The coconut pineapple coffee cake was divine, we went back for seconds and thirds. The breakfast sandwich hit the spot, and I've had the grilled cheese there before too, it's also scrumptious. read more

I'm blown away by how good their coffee is- I was a major skeptic but now I'm a loyal believer lol! Their breakfast sandwiches are also delicious and so fresh. And the staff is incredibly nice, friendly, and welcoming! For dog people: I messaged them on instagram and they said only service dogs are allowed inside, but they operate on the honor system and will only ask a dog to leave if they are being disruptive to patrons. I was able to order online, run in with my German shepherd, grab my to-go order, and leave no problem at aDo with that what you will, and don't abuse it with loud, excitable pups who'd rather not be there anyway read more

We were in town for Thanksgiving last November and ended up coming here twice for breakfast. They have fantastic coffee and tea options with baristas who know what they're doing. The food options are great, very fresh and carefully made. Despite having a smaller kitchen, they still get your food out to you quickly. The space itself is really homey and inviting; a true community space. It's exactly what you want in a local coffeeshop. If we lived nearby, we'd be there multiple times a week. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town! read more

Tasty coffee, trendy vibes. A lot of vegetarian/vegan options here, but they also have options for meat-eaters. The bagel breakfast sandwich is bomb, but the other sandwiches felt a little too lettuce-heavy and not enough protein. This place is perfect for a coffee date or a light lunch, and the service is very fast. read more

Still discovering new places as I explore the area. Usually in Dover at night. So this was a nice change. The space is awesome to hang alone or with friends. Heck, even if you are alone you can share a table with a friendly stranger. Coffee sections are plentiful and great bakery items. We met up with friends and then went exploring of Dover afterwards. Greet way to start the day. read more

Excellent variety of bagels that are fresh and just the right texture!! Rosemary is my absolute favorite! And sesame is a close second! Tons of vegan and vegetarian options as well as gluten free. The vegan cashew cream cheese is delicious and the poptarts that are sometimes available are so yummy and flaky!! Everything is well labeled on the menu inside the restaurant and online. The atmosphere here is awesome. I love the decor. Staff is always so friendly. Prices are great! The coffee guys work fast and efficiently and always make a mean cup of coffee!! read more

A legit coffee hangout with a pour over bar and top notch coffee drinks. Busy but relaxed atmosphere. Always great service, particularly hit it off with Jess! But everyone is super nice. If you want an outlet, the couches are your best bet! read more

Flight--now called Breakaway Cafe--has, for years, offered the best coffee and tea (including organic) drinks in Dover and the whole seacoast region. They have managed to keep the most talented baristas around. It also offers good breakfast and brunch dishes from scrambled egg dishes to bagels and breakfast sandwiches, along with some sweet treats. Its pleasant dining room is well lit by big windows. The owner/manager changed about 3 years ago but, except changing the name to Breakaway Cafe, he has maintained the quality of coffee, tea, food and atmosphere that made Flight great. read more

I stopped here after an appointment down the road. I was only looking for a breakfast sandwich (my aesthetician recommended it to me), so that is all I ordered. But I definitely need to stop by here to take a closer look at the menu and really experience the ambiance of this space. I ordered online (convenient for those who are interested), and the process was super easy. The breakfast sandwiches are made on their homemade bagels, which are delightfully yummy, and any of the tons of toppings they offer will yield a yummy result. I do wish I had ordered a coffee from here but I had already promised myself to Adele's, so I didn't want to cheat on my main girl when I'm in Dover. I will definitely try another sandwich and coffee next time! I did notice they had a few outdoor spots for seating, and there was PLENTY of space indoors, including comfy couches and tables for people to sit, mingle, and work. Customer service was great too! Looking forward to checking more things out at this space. read more

Love the vibes and environment. A bit pricey and would benefit from more drink options. HOWEVER, this is my fav coffee shop in Dover because it's such a cool environment. Hand crafted drinks too!! (4.5/5) read more

The coffee beans from Flight are THEEEE best- perfectly roasted & toasted. I was amazed but not surprised by how bold and flavorful the coffee was went I ground the beans- Kovachii to be exact! I paired the fresh brewed coffee with my new favorite granola- Vegan and soy-free. If you get a chance to check this amazing gem out- make sure you scope out their merch- solid coffee mugs & very cool stickers- I'm a huge fan!!! Thanks Flight for helping me lift off my morning with a smile! read more

I love this space and the dry cappuccino is excellent. Not one person (besides me) is wearing a mask-- which is weird and not optimal. The yogurt with sweet potatoes is actually fantastic. (I know that sounds wrong but I swear.) I would come here all the time if I lived in Dover. But get your booster shot! read more

Really nice, rustic coffee shop. Located right in town, Flight looks like a stereotypical coffee shop with lots of wood paneling. My main gripe was limited seating. Lots of people hogging the seats inside, which were probably scaled back for Covid, but also outside. This included a sing person with an empty cup taking up a table for 4-6. Not the most courtesy perhaps, but hey that's why I usually get coffee to go. Got a cold brew and the Bacon Me Crazy (egg, bacon, cheddar, bacon, maple, tomato). Cold brew was really well made, and washed my palette clean of the shitty Panera cold brew I had the day before. Got the sandwich on sourdough as I wasn't in a bagel mood, and it was great. Not overloaded with any ingredients, and the addition of tomato and a little maple syrup really hit the spot. Usually I practically drown these sandwiches in hot sauce, and I did not need to do that here. Was just around for a wedding, but would come here again in a sec. Wish I had this place nearby home! read more

Played a show here on tour! Great vibes. Great people running it and working there. Beautiful spot. Awesome location. Great drinks. Will definitely return. Xoxo. read more

Fantastic coffee, nice people, and the vibes were just good. This may have something to do with the fact that they were roasting cardamom when I was in there, so the smell was AMAZING, but even after that faded away, I enjoyed being in a warm, friendly place and sipping on my delicious pourover coffee. Short walk from the train station and lots of other shops and restaurants. read more

I'm a big fan of Flight's pour over coffees. We tried the Hario Syphon 14oz hot coffee and Flash Brew over ice (both Colombian) and were blown away at how smooth they were--truly quality coffee! Where Flight lost a star, for me, was the selection of milk and sweeteners on the counter--which was located right above the recycle/compost/trash bins that were absolutely teeming with fruit flies and gnats! It was very gross feeling to be doctoring our coffees in such an unsanitary area. And this area is just feet away from where the counter where Flight serves hot (uncovered) plates of food. For a place that takes their coffee so seriously, I feel like this was poor planning and execution. And someone needs to empty those bins more frequently. The restroom was also in need of some tlc. These are details that show an establishment cares about their customers' experience, not just the quality of their products. read more

Definitely recommend this place if you're in the mood for a PERFECT cup of coffee! Hubby and I thoroughly enjoyed this coffee shop today in downtown Dover, NH. He had a latte (with beautiful latte art) and I had a Chemex pour-over coffee (black), and both were made perfectly! The ambiance at this shop is great (awesome music vibes and great decor), and they have a fair bit of seating inside and out (as well spaced for social distancing as possible). They also serve food, though we didn't have any this visit. We will definitely be back, though! Just be prepared to pay metered street parking (minus Sundays and holidays) and potentially wait for a table if you chose to dine-in (we waited all of 2 minutes during our visit on a weekday - late morning / early lunch timing). read more

I could come here every day and enjoy a top notch cup of coffee and work. We ordered up an espresso and a Cortado. Both were made perfectly. Ordered a pour-over before leaving and even bought a bag to take home and cup. If we are ever in the area again, we will be stopping by! read more

What a great spot! Delicious, mouth watering and flavorful breakfast. The kids got a muffin. The adults dominated an AVO toast on sour dough and BECT on a rosemary bagel. It is less than an hour away from our home so I hope we revisit during our travels to and from the white mountains. The service was impeccable, patient (with our kiddos in tow) and have solid recommendations for us newbies. Apparently they have live music and a welcoming inclusive representation of the community advertising all the ins and outs and what have yous. As we were exiting we QR coded an Octopus painting that may find a permanent spot in our home. All in all we stumbled across a fabulous establishment and thoroughly enjoyed our to go experience from start to finish. Well done to the folks behind this fantastic coffeehouse. Cheers! read more

It's obviously a well thought out coffee house with our music activities food for everybody I do wish they had more description of what certain drinks were so it would make it easier for me to be adventurous but otherwise top notch can't really complain also I'm sure if I'd done a little research I would know it was in the purple Haze tea that I was considering getting instead I went with the juice which I was grateful they had so that means even space for kids and I did see some enjoying themselves but I'd say come prepared bring some chalk for their chalkboard space for the kids to use or have them some activities so that they don't become bored and I'm sure if you look around enough there books that you can borrow while you're hanging out and using up their space but all over I'd say this is definitely the Dover coffee house for me read more
