This place nails the essentials: drinks, delicious bagels, friendly staff, and a relaxed vibe that…read moremakes you want to hang out for a while. The bagels are soft and chewy as a real CT/NY bagel should be. The cream cheese? Fluffy, smooth, and always spread perfectly. Never sloppy, too much, or too little. Drinks can be a little pricey, but I'm happy to support a small local business. And 95% of the time, they're spot on. They offer fun seasonal drinks that change now and then. I do wish they offered more in the way of breakfast sandwiches, but they always have a decent amount of pastries. Lots of seating both inside and out, and plenty of space for solo work or studying. A great spot if you're looking to post up with your laptop.

#28 in my NEW ENGLAND & NY COFFEE SHOP SERIES…read more Not the most vibey place to study and do work, but they do have a lot of seating, lots of food options, and delicious drinks! I came in on Tuesday afternoon and there were quite a few people. The barista was so so nice and advocated for me when a lady tried to cut me in line. Very kind of him! They offer student discounts for drinks which is also lovely. I got the moonrise latte (combo of dark chocolate and white chocolate mocha) and it was delicious! Very strong, not too sweet, and a great balance. If I was in the area again, I would drop by for a drink to go.

In a day of DD and Starbucks where the employees are bothered if you have a question this was a welcome surprise. I noticed nods to American pride and respect which I greatly appreciated and respect. The quality of the coffee and workmanship of our lattes was top notch (and resulted in me ordering a berry smoothie and iced Wiccan tea-bliss!!). All in all I'm happy and will be back next time in the area. Awesome

#45 in my NEW ENGLAND & NY COFFEE SHOP SERIES…read more Another solid coffee shop with speciality lattes and traditional drinks. I originally saw this place on TikTok and wanted to try their biscoff latte. It was so good! Very creamy and cookie butter forward. It is a family run business/ small business which I love! Lots of seating inside. A good place to study, work, or chat with friends. It is inside a local plaza so there's plenty of parking as well.

I had the carrot cake inspired overnight oats and I liked that they weren't sweet, but did notice a complete lack of raisins which were listed on the ingredient list and would have elevated the flavor. I would definitely go back and try more items!

We stopped into Bread & Chocolate shortly after noon on a Sunday knowing they were closing in under…read morean hour. Most of their baked goods were sold out, which totally made sense because it was nearly closing time and the items that remained looked delicious. So we were sure that whatever had been sold before was more of the same. I ordered a hot latte and the kiddo ordered a raspberry tea. We also decided to order toasted sandwiches (grilled vegetables for me and grilled cheese for her) to enjoy in the shop. Enjoy we did! The latte was served with a foam smiley face. The espresso was strong and delicious and tempered nicely by the milk. Her tea was piping hot and fruity. The sandwiches were toasted but not blazing hot, for which we were thankful because we were very hungry. They also weren't greasy - an issue I have with other toasted sandwiches. As a side note - why do sandwich shops slather sandwiches in oil or butter when a simple iron sandwich press and a hot grill will suffice? Anyway, our sandwiches were great! They were filling but didn't leave us feeling lethargic (please refer back to the not greasy comment.) We were so happy to have a good meal and a seat after a long tour around the Quinnipiac campus. Bussing one's table is expected and the staff kept the tables spic and span in between patrons. Speaking of the staff, the young man who took our order and was servicing the dining area was kind and patient as we ordered. We made sure to leave fifteen minutes before closing because we didn't want to be THOSE people, namely the couple in the corner who'd setup their computer shop and looked to have no intention of leaving without a fight. We will definitely return to Bread & Chocolate if we find ourselves in the area again.

This place was extremely disappointing…read more I've had their bread at local restaurants and always thought it was excellent, which is what motivated me to visit in person. Over the past few months, I tried stopping by three separate times, twice they were already closed, and once they had completely sold out of bread. I finally made it there on a Sunday morning, and they had only one loaf left, and not a type I wanted. We decided to order two egg and cheese sandwiches (one with turkey bacon). Both were terrible. The rolls were soft, soggy, wet, and flavorless. Each sandwich had a single egg placed off-center, so half the roll barely had any egg at all. The turkey bacon was so bad we removed it and threw it out. Normally, I would have just moved on and not returned. But what really pushed me to write this review (which I never write) was the carrot cake we purchased. We took it home, refrigerated it, and tried it later that evening. It was, without question, the worst piece of carrot cake I've ever had. The frosting was hard, dry, stale, and completely lacking flavor, no sweetness at all. The cake itself was equally bad: dry, crumbly, and utterly tasteless. There was no hint of carrot, cinnamon, nutmeg, or any spice, just bland, dry crumbs. The cake was completely lacking sugar. After two bites, we threw it in the garbage. I don't say this lightly. I've been cooking and baking for decades, hold a degree in Hotel & Restaurant Management, and spent over 20 years in the industry. I've traveled extensively and eaten outstanding food around the world. For me, someone who genuinely loves desserts, to throw cake away (which is rare) says everything. I understand it was a Sunday and that fresh baking may not be happening that day, but it's simply not acceptable to sell baked goods from prior days that are clearly stale. Even more concerning than the staleness however, was the complete lack of flavor in the product. The sandwiches were disappointing, but that cake was on another level. I won't be returning for sandwiches or desserts, but perhaps the bread.
