    Great place to sit and have a snack! Love the covered outdoor seating. It's always been busy when I'm there and the people working there are so nice. The coffee is pretty average

    Coffee Obsession is a gourmet coffee shop that opened in Falmouth, Massachusetts in 1992. It was founded by Hugh F. Birmingham. The shop offers a house blend, dark roast and decaf choices of coffee, along with a flavorful blend that the staff selects each opening shift. Specialty drinks catering to the simple espresso sippers and cool cappuccino crowd are offered, as well as "Summer Sippers" like iced coffee, cold brew and iced teas. An extensive tea menu is also provided. Following its success, a second location opened in 2004 in the Woods Hole section of town. This location offers a full kitchen menu. It is very popular with visitors to the Upper Cape who are looking to grab a quick bite before boarding a ferry to Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket. My family and I visited the Woods Hole location of Coffee Obsession recently when we were on a week-long trip to Cape Cod. We had just purchased ferry tickets to Martha's Vineyard at the Steamship Authority, and we were looking to grab a quick breakfast to bring onto the ferry with us. I scanned the menu and my wife and I decided to order a couple of Breakfast BLTs (Fried Egg, Applewood Smoked Bacon, Avocado, Mixed Greens and Sriracha Mayo on Toasted Multigrain Bread). For our toddler son, we ordered a blueberry muffin. Those sandwiches were exactly what we were looking for! So delicious and not overly filling; they really hit the spot. Our son loved his blueberry muffin; it was loaded with blueberries! We'll definitely visit if we're in the area again. Next time I'll definitely need to try their coffee!

    $5 for a breakfast sandwich. Free wifi and could find a table right away, unlike pie in the sky.

    I'm not even a coffee drinker and I love this place, and it's definitely the best casual food option in Woods Hole.

Our server made several mistakes throughout the evening and had an unexpectedly aggressive attitude. He forgot my sister's wine twice, brought out an incorrect order, and mishandled my mom's dessert request. There was also confusion around the dessert order. My mom wanted one scoop of gelato and asked about the available flavors. The server was very unclear, using "sorbet" and "gelato" interchangeably throughout the conversation. In the end, she ordered one scoop of "lemon gelato," as he described it, which should have been $3. So we were surprised when the bill came and showed a $14 charge for lemon sorbet--which wasn't even listed on the menu. When we pointed this out, the server responded in a pretty surly manner, though the charge was eventually corrected. After we paid, he brought over a scoop of vanilla gelato and said it was "on him," but the delivery felt sarcastic and he placed it on the table quite aggressively. By that point, we were already full and honestly just ready to leave. Overall, the food and atmosphere were great, but the poor service really put a damper on the evening and left us ending the night on a negative note. Since we were a party of six, a 20% gratuity was automatically added to our bill, which was unfortunate given the level of service we received.

The Firebird cocktail I ordered delighted the entire crowd, since it comes out in a Polynesian head and is aflame.

The lobster on little tacos. (We were there for 3 hours since the weather was wet and we were talking up our own storm.) My friend knows many good establishments on MV and 9 Craft certainly is. Cheers.

    It's been a while since I wrote a food review; I just haven't had the time lately. But after our…read moreexperience last night, I reconsidered. So we went to 9 Craft Kitchen for what we thought would be a higher-tier food experience for my wife's birthday. We do this almost every year we are here in MV. I originally booked at Atria (Edgertown) but canceled and booked here because we did Atria the last time we were here. From the moment we entered the establishment, the hostesses greeted us almost coldly, without many words. I explained that I initially booked the reservation for 3, but our son got sick at the last minute, so it would be just the two of us. Sometimes there are sensitivities around the party size, but the restaurant was completely empty. She sat us down in the back of the room, without much interaction. That's fine, but it goes against the warmth other restaurants show guests when they enter. Several minutes later (about 10) a waiter shows up with water, again, no words, and leaves. She comes back a few moments later with menus and returns a minute later with a question about the drinks we are going to order. The whole interaction has my wife lifting her eyebrow in a manner that I understood as, "That's weird." There was a coldness that was present, which at first we thought maybe was because the place was empty. It was 4 p.m., so right after the lunch crowd, but before the dinner rush. So we ordered drinks, and that interaction was fine; the drinks arrived with a bit more interaction and professionalism when she said, I hope you enjoy your drinks. Would you like to order appetizers and/or dinner? Ok, so maybe the in-between reservation was unusual for them. Ok, I get it. We ordered a few appetizers and 2 entrees. I went to the bathroom, and I could see the wait staff huddled together, laughing at something. When I came back to my seat, they were still huddled together, laughing at something. That didn't bother me, since they weren't busy, but it also explains the lack of interaction and the pause between menus and drinks being served. We didn't wait long for our appetizers. But that's where the issues really start to rear their heads. By the time she brought the appetizers, we had already finished our drinks. We were going to ask for another round, but she brought the appetizers so quickly that I guess she forgot to ask. We ate our appetizers, and there was about a 25-minute wait before she came to remove them and make room for our entrees. We thought she would interact with us then and ask how our appetizers were or whether we wanted another round of drinks. Silly me, she did neither. She removed the apps and came back within the next 2 minutes with our entrees. At this point, she asked if we needed anything else. I said no, and she left. After we ate our entrees, she came back and asked if we needed anything else. I said no, just the check. The whole experience was rushed, as if we were interrupting staff service or something. Bad service happens sometimes. All of us have had bad days in the office or at work. Somehow, the level of service and interaction here doesn't reflect the service on the island, which, at places like Atlantic Fish & Chop House, was outstanding and warm. Like they wanted us back. Same for Rockfish. Even places like Biscuits, which is always packed, remain warm and friendly. The service here was subpar. Even the hostess's interaction left us feeling like, hmmm. The food was solid, but I wouldn't call this place an upper-tier restaurant. There were certainly some racial undertones at play, but again, everyone has bad days at work. As we say, life by lifeing sometimes. But as we spread the word to our friends about our experience here, we have heard this isn't an isolated experience. And for that, we say, hmm, ok. We won't be back. There are just too many other higher-tier restaurants to eat at to experience this and feel like we should give it another go. I thought you all should know.

They charged me for 3 large sodas plus my drink, it was over $10 just for the waters alone, they were in small cups, they took 10 minutes just to get.

So when I handed them the cash they never told me a total so i was expecting to pay what was on the screen, they give me my change no receipt, and it's much less than was shown. I told them I'm not paying over $10 for 3 small tap waters, they asked for them back so I have to get them back from my young children. Then they give me an attitude and take 15 more minutes to give me my change, as the so called manager is repeatedly saying we're trying to help you holding my change in his hand for over 5 minutes instead of just handing it to me, the two employees were acting shady with the money. And being rude, not saying you charge almost $4each for small tap waters, not giving a total, and disappearing with my money and taking for ever to get me my change and then my refund. I will never go to that burger king again. Just as terrible service as McDonald's in falmouth. The tall middle aged manager shaved head, and the younger maybe 20 year old female worker. Horrible customer service, lost a loyal customer over tap waters.
