    Elephant Ear: Crispy, cinnamon, icing delightfulness!
    Jeanette P.

    So good I had to come back the next day! This place is so cute and cozy. It's got a counter where guests can sit on stools or tables, including an inviting nook, where folks can linger and enjoy their delicacies, food, and coffees. This is a popular spot, so choose your timing. When we came in the morning, the well-oiled coffee machine was at peak performance, but still.. brewing coffee takes what it takes to get that rich brew. Just enjoy the heavenly scents and before you know it, you'll be sipping your piping hot or iced beverage. When we came in the afternoon, we sat at the counter. Both times, our coffees gave us just the right pep up to keep us exploring charming Rockport. Friendly, quaint, and delicious spot!

    Glazed Donut and mocha with oat milk

    Fun spot! Great selection of pastries and food options. Also have a wonder fil beverage selection. Great place to grab a cup of coffee and a bite. Quaint atmosphere and very friendly staff. Also great to grab a cup of something warm and stroll the nearby shops/ art galleries. The donuts are WONDERFUL!!!! Tried multiple varieties. The glazed is one of the best glazed you'll ever try, so be sure to get it and try a flavored option. I had a mocha one day and a chai the next. It gave me what I needed, but wasn't my favorite. Good but not great! With limited selections around its gives you a place for caffeine to start the day.

    First time in around 7:30am earlier today. Fast moving line no issue. Several unique coffee roasts. My breakfast appeared in less than five minutes (Bacon Egg Cheese on English Muffin.) Expertly prepared and sliced for convenience. Coffee was a medium Dark Sin; delicious. Deceptively roomy with lots of seating. (More than half the people in line with me took their orders to go.) Lots of street-side parking out front. Very friendly staff. Will definitely return!

    Jelly-Filled Sugar Donut

    We're seasonal visitors from out of state. Let me tell you, coming from a state that has a donut shop on practically every street corner, I've had my fair share of all types. These 2 (Boston cream and jelly filled sugar) are the absolute best I have ever laid my eyes and taste buds on. We happened to be exceptionally lucky this morning when they were temporarily out of Boston Creme...why? Because we waited the extra few minutes to get the next batch as they came out fresh. I don't say this often about donuts, but I believe I had an existential experience biting into that wonderfully fresh, delicate, and aromatic pastry of the Rockport God's. As for the coffee, Dark Sin iced is our choice of the morning. It was a hoppin' place this morning, and all of the employees were gracious, patient, and kind. Service was exceptionally speedy with smiles all around. A great little shop attached to their main restaurant, Brackett's Oceanview. There is plenty of seating that you can even enjoy the ocean view. Do yourself a favor....cheat on that diet, enjoy a donut, iced coffee, breakfast sandwich, scone, ... whatever you desire, you will not go wrong!

    The coffee here was pretty good! The ambiance is cute inside and I enjoyed my coffee. Parking is street parking so can be a little hard to come by depending on the season, but we found our way! The service was also nice as well.

    Donuts!

    Speedy coffee service & a bounty-ous selection of baked goods! My iced coffee was delicious. The barista worked with my 9 y.o. to ensure that his steamed milk mocha was to his satisfaction. The only drawback I have, is that my plan for the day (and my glutinous night before) did not allow for me to sample ALL of the baked selections (the blueberry cakes were ordered by everyone after me to reinforce my own second-guessing). Thankfully, we found sober room for Boston cream & lemon filled Bismarks. Actually, there is a second drawback, not coming here until my last day in town ruined my operating for repeated visits (this time!).

    Food & coffee were both great. Very nice donuts. I really liked the plain donuts with a crispy crust. Nice people working there too.

    Nice welcoming local cafe! We had both a hot coffee and the brown sugar latte. The latte wasn't too sweet. Their donuts were also tasty.

    This was a spur of the moment find on our way to Hammond Castle (also well worth a visit). We were…read morehangry and looking for breakfast-ish options and Source Bakery more than hit the spot. Their menu is centered around the almighty biscuit - biscuits/scones are one of my favorite ways to inhale carbs but they can run on the too bread-y side of the spectrum. These were fantastic: delicate crumb, beautiful golden color, and sturdy enough to hold in all the sandwich fillings. I went with the classic breakfast egg sandwich (scrambled egg, cheese, and arugula) and added sausage. This was one of those rare situations where the bread vehicle outshined the fillings. The egg, while nice and fluffy (and tasted like real egg instead of the diluted mix I've had elsewhere), could have used some more seasoning and was begging for a healthy dollop of ketchup or hot sauce. The only thing that came through strongly was the salt crystals on the top of the biscuit. Tried a bite of my husband's chicken salad on a cheddar/onion biscuit and had the same reaction - the biscuit overpowered everything else. Not that I'm complaining. The bakery is on a side street off the busier, more touristy Rogers Street. I had this idea too late but next time I'm in Gloucester, I'd take a biscuit sandwich to the beach area along Western Ave. The cafe itself is very, very cute, with little nooks and crannies everywhere for seating and even a comfy looking couch. Bathroom was clean. We found a parking lot one street over in the other direction.

And, well, I won't keep you in suspense but that first bite of the salted honey butter and jam biscuit was transcendental. It was a little crumbly but so chewy and moist, and the jam and honey butter combo was incredible. Indescribable. They have so many pastry options, as well as breakfast sandwiches, but I really had eyes only for the biscuits. Also tried the cheddar scallion biscuit - amazing. I'm running out of adjectives to describe how good these were. The key for super flaky, tender biscuits is using very, very cold butter and not mixing the dough too much. It was cool to watch people baking in the back kitchen. Got the quiche as well. Tasty, with a nice mix of egg and veggies and cheese, with a well-made crust, but next time I would just get more biscuits. Lots of free parking spots in front and nearby. There's little space inside the store, which makes the queue a bit unwieldy, but it does move quickly and it's well worth the wait (and the drive).
