    College town coffee shop near the university of Delaware. It's a Greek coffee shop featuring a lot of desserts and pastries. We had a late lunch so we opted for ice coffees. The iced coffees were great and the girl working the counter added in cherry cold foam after ordering as I saw the option post ordering. It's gives mom and pop shop vibes - but it's super large with lots of natural light - if I lived in the area I would work here and get some pastries. Super friendly staff!

    Dining area with room for or 50 customers.

    This is a great coffee shop. I was warmly welcomed and since it was my first time here, the front desk young lady explained their Christmas drinks, fresh baked goods and gave some of her recommendations. The Greek coffee and espresso was Devine and the process of making it with sand was as icing on the cake. Service was wonderful and the dining area was warm and welcoming. Very clean and beautifully decorated.

    Before driving back to Baltimore after a day in Wilmington, my friend and I stopped for afternoon coffee at Cafeneo. I had a freddo cappuccino, which was great, and my friend had a special - a coffee with a flavored foam from their specials board that day. They also offered some great looking pastries (including some Greek baked goods), which were - sadly - too full and hot to snack on! The service was great, and the coffeeshop was large, bright, and comfortable! Definitely a place that would be great for working or studying - not too loud and very spacious! And they had some great outside seating that I'd have taken advantage of on a less hot day! Overall, a really nice coffeeshop!

    Sand coffee. So good.

    We were super psyched to try this place. The reviews had everything sounding amazing. We parked in the pay-to-park lot behind the cafe and went in. The cafe is bright, clean, and airy. There were a few people inside focussed on their laptops. We checked out the options on the monitors, but that was a bit hard to do after a while as the screen would flip to a picture so we'd lose whatever it was we were reading. A paper menu solved that issue. We tried a cappuccino, an iced coffee, an apple pie, a spinach pie, and one of the desserts which involved phyllo pastry and custard (didn't know there were two of them on the menu and don't know which one we got). The coffees were both amazing. Five stars all the way. The food... well, the spinach pastry was hard. It was super chewy. And it was salty. The apple pie had a really strong spice in it, we think it was clove, that overpowered everything. And the custard dessert was really sweet. We would not go back to eat any of that again. Probably 2 stars. I hate ruining their 5 star run but really, the food wasn't worth the money. The coffee, however, was outstanding. So we'll share a 4 star review (rather than a 3) and hope we were there on an off-food day or something.

    Probably one of the underrated coffee shops off of Main Street in Newark. However, it has become one of my regular rotation of morning go-to sips. Plenty of open area seatings for both indoor & out with a nice aesthetic. Paid parking in the rear. Sweet and savory food options. Traditional Greek coffee. Good service.

    AMAZINGLY TASTY CRUMB PASTRY!! I loved it! Also the drink was super cool! Tasted just like a thin mint! Very open and modern cafe with quick service.

    Stopped in on memorial day weekend and this is a diamond in the rough. I had an iced latte and I really enjoyed my drink. This place has a very open concept with plenty of chairs/tables for studying. It was pretty empty but it also was a holiday weekend after UD graduation. The servers were both really sweet and it's very very clean inside. I heard they have some events coming up and new pastries that will be added to the menu shortly. If you're looking for good coffee and something new this is your spot!

    Amazing authentic experience, I missed my vacation in Greece and their coffee and pastries brought me back. Can't wait to visit again! It's both casual but still formal compared to a regular coffee shop. Beverages and bites are beautifully plated and brought to the table. The ambiance is bright, spacious, and modern. Great addition to the neighborhood.

    I love the Greek coffee here! It comes with a cookie as well. The pastries are also really good. Service is great. Come here sometimes to sit and do work- plenty of seating inside and outside. It's really cute!

    Tried a bunch of different coffee places as we are avid coffee drinkers. This place was fantastic. The taste and strength of the coffee was fantastic. Usually it's either or, but they nailed both here. Highly recommend the Greek coffee it's as strong as, if not stronger, espresso with a much better taste. We also did standard drip and it was fantastic. Atmosphere was great along with the staff. Very clean and spacious with a good flow that makes you want to stay.

    Had to visit this very historic restaurant on my trip to Delaware! We had the corn and crab…read morechowder and the short rib grilled cheese. The grilled cheese was different than what other places offer and it did not disappoint- Both were great! We had a reservation and were seated immediately. Loved the atmosphere here. Had great service and it was a very relaxing evening. The place was full of college students and was a little noisy at times. Would go back to this restaurant again.

    Don't use the online ordering via their site. I placed an order at 5:43pm for a 7:15 pm pickup…read more Arrived at 7:15pm and was told the kitchen was jammed and that it was going to be a bit for the food. Waited 30 minutes sitting at the bar, no update or apology offered during the wait. I then asked how much longer and was eventually told a few more minutes, but they have a "new manager," so things were backed up. I've worked in a restaurant before, I understand mistakes happen. To not receive an apology stunned me, honestly. I asked to speak to manager and he told me that I needed to understand they received the order at 7:15pm and they were hosting a private event so it's not their fault. I was more stunned. I showed him on the receipt the 543pm placement time and the 7:15pm pick up time. He told me again they did not receive the order until 7:15 despite the website, receipt recording all this information. Unsurprisingly, some stuff was missing and needed to be added to complete the order. I was given an apology as I walked out by manager, but very poor experience overall. Avoid the online ordering.

    Great lunch today at Grain. We had the potato kegs for an app followed by a Caesar salad with…read morechicken, the birrea grilled cheese and the salmon BLT. I enjoyed the bacon and cheese potato kegs. My wife and I split the BLT and grilled cheese. Hers came with a side salad mine with shoe string fries. My son has the salad. Salmon was very good, it was vodka cured; bloodline and skin removed (+++)! Grain was pretty busy for mid-afternoon on a Sunday. Modern pub/ sports pub feel. Phillies game on the TVs. Music playing. Service was OK. My one pet peeve is allowing servers to leave dirty dishes and empty glasses on the table. And our server, although attentive, did not clear any dishes or glasses. Thank god I don't have epilepsy, the light over our table kept blinking non-stop. Plenty of off street parking for patrons. Lots of varied seating, both indoor and outdoor. See warning sign in my pics (haha). As far as prices, they are in line with any other places, as far as these other reviews that said it is excessively expensive, not true. Lunches are $15-20. Apps are a little pricey. Nice beer selection in the $8 ish range. Forgot I wanted to get a pan dessert, next time. I paid using InKind and got a nice discount.
