My iced coffee was good. The coffee I made at home with the Kenyan AA beans was also good. As the cup suggests, Willoughby's is for serious coffee people.

We also got the egg salad BLT which was phenomenal with a generous portion of egg salad. And we got a Cobb salad which was solid. Only reason this was a 4 instead of a 5 - nobody came to check on us or refill water after we got the food. And the food took a while to come out. And we had to wait quite a while after we finished eating to flag someone down to get the check. Understandable given it was a gorgeous Saturday of a holiday weekend. There's great outdoor seating, although limited table space. There's a line to sit outside most days.

The food was very good and surprisingly since they are working in such a small kitchen. The clientele leaves a bit to be desired a lot of people just seem rude and also sat at their tables way too long and not considerate knowing so many people were waiting to be seated but not much you can do about that. Our waitress was nice and took out order pretty promptly but after that we never saw her or anyone again. Still I would eat there again

Made me wonder if they could truly see what they are doing. I ordered the Hot Honey Toast and the Very Berry Acai Bowl. The toast was tasty, could have used a bit more salt. The honey was really watery and was more on the togo container than the toast itself. The Acai was nice, first time having it in this form. Now looking back, it would have been better consumed immediately and not waiting the car ride back to work as it was melting. Lesson learned. I added peanut butter on it too. Was it worth over $24 for it all, eh, maybe not. Thankfully, I had a gift card burning in my pocket that covered half of it.

My go-to is the California breakfast sandwich... customize it with multigrain bread, add bacon and arugula for the best breakfast sandwich in CT!

It's In a really cute town with shops all around, street metered parking except on the weekends. Not sure if there is another parking area. My friends and I went for gourmet tea tasting and came away with a wealth of knowledge and new understanding of tea. Phil took us on a journey of tea that was like an upscale wine tasting. We tasted 6 teas and they all were so different. From the color of tea, types of tea, why all teas with the same name are not created equal, to the temperature of the water, different pots, regions, his travels since the 70s....yea we learned a lot. I look forward to going back to buy more tea. Staff were really nice. You can order. Beverage and treats there too. Not much room to sit but grab. Beverage and walk around and maybe learn something.

Fast forward to today, I love finding Cohen's Bagels at local coffee shops. I finally was able to visit their store and I was very impressed by the selection available since it was after the morning rush. I got a Bagel Melt on my favorite Cheddar Cheese Bagel. This was so cheesy! It had chive cream cheese, cheddar cheese, tomato, and raw onion. The sandwich was very messy. I also got an Iced Chai Tea Latte that was pretty good. I like their bagels because of the variety of flavors, there are chewy, perfectly sized,!and easy to eat. The staff were very friendly and my order came out quick. There was even a large dining room area (this is where you picked up your order). It was very spacious, many tables, clean, and open. I will be back again at Cohen's Bagel because they are my favorite where it's stopping for a quick lunch or grabbing an assortment of bagels and breads for at home.

The shop…read morewas empty when I arrived and there was one black woman working the counter and an Asian lady and two other women chatting up a storm doing God knows what. I ordered two simple coffee and three food items. I got the coffees by the woman at the counter but watched as she now handled a growing line of customers behind me and nobody was attending to the food tickets popping out of the printer because the three other women were laughing things up. Finally one of them came over and heated my sandwich and then left to wander around the front of the shop. She came back and handed me the sandwich but didn't bother to get me the coffee cake or oatmeal I paid for, The other customers came and went and food items that could just be grabbed and didn't require any preparation were promptly dispatched by the woman working the counter. Meanwhile the other baristas were toddling around as patrons waited patiently for their drinks being prepared in slow motion. At one point my coffee cake showed up but no oatmeal. It wasn't until I saw other food items requiring preparation getting handed to multiple customers and nobody having even started the oatmeal that I blew. At that point they all started running around in circles trying to figure out the oatmeal situation. Not to belabor the point a young manager man came out from the back room, asked me what happened and did what his employees couldn't....prepare the oatmeal. But....there were no tops for the oatmeal bowl. Nobody could find any. So the oatmeal was put in a coffee cup. Usually they give you brown sugar for the oatmeal and when I noticed they hadn't I asked. They went looking again and reported that they didn't have any brown sugar. No bowl tops and no brown sugar. Hmmm. They no longer put sugar packets out for some insane reason even though they did the day before, Thanksgiving, when I had been in. As I didn't order any food items requiring preparation that day, things were fine. It is clear this shop is not well managed and somebody should either send all the staff to some remedial boot camp training or cut them loose so they can find folks who understand how to do the job and will service the customers who pay their salaries in a timely, attentive and efficient way. I was so tempted to grab back the tip I left. I didn't. Perhaps I should have. I will say this, if I had known they were going to be this bad, I would not have tipped and I ALWAYS tip.
