Located on Emerald Street in Keene is a fun cafe featuring a variety of drinks and food. We visited on a Saturday around lunch time and the line to order was long and the tables were all full, but we decided to wait anyway. The line moved fairly quickly. My family and I order an açaí bowl, salad with chicken and a Portabella Rice bowl along with an Italian soda, lemonade and ice tea. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The seating area has a variety of couches, tables and chairs along with a craft area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff were very friendly. The food was fresh and flavorful. This was probably one of the best rice bowls I have had. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It seemed like a popular hangout spot for Keene State Students.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will absolutely be retiring to Brewbakers. read more

Ordered five breakfast sandwiches this morning for our family. They did not give us the right meats on the sandwiches. One sandwich had a half a slice of ham for the ham on it. The sandwich that was supposed to have short ribs had three shreds of short ribs. The bread was so dry and not buttered that you couldn't even eat it. The edge of the toast were burnt on one and one was missing ingredients that had been added. For $56 it was a disaster. read more

Brewbakers - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Keene, New Hampshire

Wow! Brewbakers has transformed over the years! If you are in town after a long absence, it's time to meet the new Brewbies. They still have great coffee, but they are now located in a big space on emerald Street(the old blueberry fields spot, I think) and they are using it to its best potential. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have coffee, beer, excellent sandwiches and baked goodies, loads of seating, a take out window, a stage for events, a makerspace and retail[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]And if still feels like a cute community coffee shop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They had a community craft fair last weekend. The staff are always kind. The drinks and food come out at a reasonable pace to the crowd size. A great asset to the Keene area. It has a small lot against the building and a much larger shared lot across the street as well as street parking. Easy to get to. Lots to enjoy. Still looking forward to some day coming to an evening event. Will keep you all updated out there in yelp land. read more

The maple latte! No one can do it better ! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the vibe here.. art studio is such a plus![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Coffee is very good and the fare is acceptable if small portions. It is also a bit on the expensive side, which is kind of surprising because its main clientele are people from the nearby Keene State College. Definitely a liberal Vibe, but the scenery is nice and the coffee very good. Parking is on street and if you have the right app it's fairly easy to find nearby spots. read more

Fabulous food! I had the power bowl which was superb with the quinoa and eggs cooked perfectly and a generous amount of avocado! My husband had the farmers breakfast and said the potatoes were the best he's ever had. We will definitely be back next year! read more

The baked goods were some of the tastiest I've ever eaten. The coffee was great also. Definitely deserve repeat business. Staff were helpful and quick and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside the building it was very spacious and had a nice look.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great place to hang out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Coffee, lattes all sorts of options for breakfast and lunch a great place to meet up with friends! Been here many times in the last many months; never disappointed. read more

Brewbakers is by far my favorite place in Keene. Relaxed atmosphere, great caffeinated (and non) drinks, food (baked goods, salads/sandwiches/small plates with vegetarian and vegan options), fast service. They also have live performances that looked interesting, and sell used vinyl. Parking can be a challenge during the day, although later in the day it wasn't much of an issue. Unlike usual coffee shops, Brewbakers is open until 7pm. read more

A busy little spot that just so happened to be serving up pretty much everything I like to eat! My husband ordered a chèvre/olive toast on sourdough (he was quite pleased!) and I ordered a veggie brunch bowl. The tomatoes in my brunch bowl were the most flavorful tomatoes I've ever had. After a long day on the road it was really nice to taste real food!! The space was quite inviting and the crowd visibly happy. I would return in a heartbeat!! read more

My Oma and I came here for lunch. She was not impressed. Though we thought it was a cute setting, great energy when you walk in; People are sitting at tables on laptops, taking calls, hanging out on the couch; It reminds me of something you'd see in NY or Boston! 3 stars because my Oma and I ordered a similar sandwich ($12) each and they both came out wrong. It's my first time here, and I brought my Oma since it has great reviews, but I took her feedback into consideration as I wrote this review. Coffee was alright, not the best, but it will do! Oma had an iced matcha. She didn't finish her drink, so I'm not sure if she enjoyed it. Next time if my experience is better than today, I will definitely increase the rating on this review but it's a shame. I had high hopes for this spot but maybe it was just one of those days. It happens. read more

What I like: the cinnamon crullers. Coffee and breakfast sandwiches. I also like the gal who wears super interesting eye makeup and always surprises me with a new design. WhatI don't like: when the person taking orders from folks in Line doesn't try to hurry along someone having a 15-minute conversation over a simple breakfast sandwich order while we're ten people deep. I waited for literally 12 minutes to order two crullers while this woman in front of me and six others go on discussing her breakfast sandwich order and coffee. Then she took forever to figure out how to pay with a debit card. Really? I think you need to have some common sense to tell someone there's other people who are waiting to place their order. It took all that time for someone to go to the other register to start taking orders. That woman still was carrying on while I moved to the new ordering window. Just saying. I was super annoyed today. read more

Good quality food at reasonable prices - upscale cafe fare and coffee/tea etc. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also host live music events.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

What a delight to find this space in Keene. Great atmosphere. Attentive staff. A lovely, eclectic mix of customers. Maple latte was delicious as wad the chocolate chip cookie. I'll be back! read more

Decaffeinated coffee just never taste the way you hope. That is until I tried it at this lovely bakery. Excellent staff, fantastic atmosphere, and the used record section turned out to be dynamite. I probably would not order again the avocado BLT; it was a lot of bread and not much going on inside. But other items looked pretty great, and I would definitely give it a second try. read more

Great coffee, the BEST pastries, great breakfast & lunch foods. The only downside is how long it takes to get your order... if you're in a rush, this might not be the best place to stop. Between minimal parking, sometimes long lines, and a long wait for your order, it can be quite the trip. However, if you have the time, it is well worth the wait! A lot of reviews say the staff is unfriendly and rude. I've definitely experienced a couple rude staff members, but most of the staff is delightful. Sam, Jen, Rachel, and Liv are all amazing. read more

Absolutely incredible sandwich. Very friendly service. Delicious coffee. I am literally planning this to be a regular stop on my long drives and I will go out of my way to get to enjoy what Brewbakers has to offer. What a delightful surprise. read more

Loved my cold brew and my latte that I got at Brewbakers. I woke up early and headed out to get coffee - it was a 15 min ride from my hotel but it was so worth the 15 min. The space is cozy and inviting and full of morning light. Service was quick and friendly. The espresso biscotti was also spot on. read more

My friends and I found this place and we're glad we did! Not only was the food delicious and filling, it felt like a safe space for us and we completely appreciated that. The servers were very nice and there was plenty of room to hold us all. We'd love to go again someday! read more

Funky place. Spacious. Wish the menu was a little more varied, but the coffee is one of the best in Keene. Baked items are decent but not great. The sandwiches good for breakfast, bowls for lunch, entertainment at night. The staff are great and prompt. read more

The Powerbowl is to die for! I went to brewbakers when I was in college when it was a little tiny place on Main Street. I really love how it's expanded, how dogs are allowed, the atmosphere is just so nice. Artistic. The food, coffee, and pastries are always delicious. One of my favorite places to go in Keene! read more

Brewbakers - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Keene, New Hampshire

This is the best little coffee spot ever! I only visit Keene to teach every 3 months or so at Antioch. I come from CA and literally get happier and happier the closer I get to Brewbakers. The best part is the baked goods! I met Emma, one of the bakers, and must say her talent is unmatched! The chocolate chip cookies are unlike anything I have EVER had before. I bring home a dozen with me now every time for my family. Sometimes they are not in the case so definitely ask if there are any baked. These are the best cookies in the world!!! Thank you Emma! read more

Excellent drinks. Outstanding snacks. Always packed but friendly service. Would return.

Come for the coffee, stay for the old fashioned donuts! Fabulous house plants, awesome clam chowder. Nice spot to just stay around and catch up on life. Great venue for concerts too! read more

Just went in the other day for lunch and had their pork empanadas. Delish!! Also one of their iced lattes and cool mango smoothies for a much needed frozen dessert. Lunch here is recommended in my book! read more

delicious coffee, watch them roast the beans there. Great local coffee! great art, and music section as well.

This review is just based on Saturday breakfast...coffee is good, egg sandwiches are good and employees are nice, but SERVICE IS REALLY, REALLY SLOW. Don't come here if you're on a schedule. The simple act of getting a black coffee to go can take a lifetime. read more

Their new location is gorgeous! And the breakfast sandwich and smoothie was awesome! I could have it every morning read more

Brewbakers - Classic smoothie & Bacon Egg and Cheese on Gluten free toast - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Keene, New Hampshire

Where do I begin... the staff is sensational, the drinks are perfectly made, and the donuts/bakery items are out of this world! I come here regularly for my coffee fix and I am pleased to say, even with my complex order, my drink is made to perfection each and every time. I am greeted with a smile even when the place is packed and with a Line out the door. The old fashioned donut is a must try along with the vegan/gluten free chocolate chip cookies! With allergies and sensitivities in my family we are lucky to have a place this conscientious of there food practices! Thank you all for your hard work and I could not be happier to have this amenity in a place I call home. read more

Great food! I had a fantastic and epic avocado toast that I'm still thinking about. The space is great, plenty of room, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The only reason I'm taking off a star is because it took awhile to get our food, (I'm not sure if this is due to short staffing post covid or if there is a small kitchen) and because parking was pretty tricky. Either way, it's worth the wait but maybe try somewhere else if you are in a hurry. We will definitely be back the next time we are in town! read more

Popping in and out of towns everywhere can make it challenging to find a winner for any meal. Coffee & breakfast you would think were the easiest. Not even a little. Without drawing this out too far to make myself feel amazing, I'll just note that this place wins from food, people, and vibe. I actually want to come back to Keene just to come to this place. Small side mention to the bacon on the breakfast sandwich...WTH? Is the best bacon ive EVER eaten. Like, by a long shot. Bacon is kinda like pizza, even at carnival level, its still good...but this bacon, my God. Ok. Its getting weird. Ill just leave it at, "go to this place". If you're sitting in your hotel room and dismissing places one at a time because they have one bad review out if 3000...skip the angst and just go get food here. read more

I'm sad to say I agree with everyone on here saying the staff is rude. I used to go there quite often and never had a nice experience with any of the staff members. I find this puzzling as it seems as though the owner is rather relaxed, which is the vibe I get he would want the restaurant to have. Maybe get new staff or tell them to be kinder and the vibe will come naturally, because the aesthetic of the decorations is there :) On the other hand the food is very good..good luck standing the staff, tho! read more
