Get customer service here. I'm a regular here for their specials and rank up the rewards with your phone number for free drinks. Great place for a wide variety of drinks for everyone's likings. I have to mention I like receipts of what I purchased and for some time they haven't had a printer available to do that since it broke sometime ago. Today everyone would like receipts to get back to use for fetch.

What a cute concept! This coffee shop is drive-thru only with an extensive list of flavors and…read morespecialty combos. The service was super quick and friendly, almost too quick because all the choices were overwhelming and we thought we had a bit more time to check the menu. We went with the iced German chocolate with cold foam, iced sweet and salty, and iced pumpkin pie coffees. All of the flavors were amazing! If I had to rank them: GC, PP, then SS... which says a lot as a caramel lover. Cool spot, I'd definitely come back. I wish they put one in Hartford near 84 instead of that Starbucks.

Great little coffee house at the end of town. I love how they're open late (til 5.) I'm an avid…read morecoffee drinker and a, I've never had burnt or sour espresso from them and b, they make everything perfectly EXCEPT the latte. For some reason they have one size and it's huge. We don't need that much milk in a latte! Make it smaller! Charge me the same! That's my only gripe aside from the whole dog thing. They love your pets and have treats for them. I'm just not an animal person but maybe you are and so that's why I'm writing this. Bring your dog here! Sometimes the place is dead quiet with everyone on their laptops but other times it's lively and loud with chatter. Younger crowd usually (it's a college town after all.) I just moved out of town but I'd come here over Silk City anyway. (Their espresso is MUCH better here)

Good doughnuts, basic toppings, great owner…read more Came here because we knew the owner from a local pizza spot that always looked after us when we would stop by. He decided to branch out and make a tiny donut shop, so we wanted to swing by and give him a try. The shop is small, designed more for your pick up and go crowd. The signage is a little small, so you will need to know where to go to find it. The selection of donuts is akin to specialty cookie shops. They keep a standard selection of doughnuts on demand but also rotate out a few types to keep things fresh. You order your doughnuts with the cashier, and then get to watch your doughnuts get dipped and packed right in front of you. We got a dozen of these little doughnuts. Took our pics then dug in. As a doughnut, they are good. They are a cake doughnut with a little vanilla in the batter to give it a mellow buttery floral flavor note. Not majorly noticeable, but just enough to make it better than just straight up cake. The best bite was the strawberry shortcake. Fresh strawberries with a light whipped cream gives that flavor profile one would expect from a very solid strawberry shortcake. The rest were of varying states of okay for the toppings. The maple bacon was good, the local maple glaze was very maple forward and tasty. The bacon crumbles needed to be cooked more. They were a little too soft and chewy for that style of doughnut. The doughnuts with chocolate syrup needs a better chocolate syrup. Would probably replace with a chocolate drizzle instead. Would hold up better if not eaten immediately. Some of the glazes were not made in house, and were a bit too strong for some of the other toppings on them. They will need to figure out a way to tweak these glazes to not be overpowering. As a destination spot I would expect an elevated product, and this shop is not set up to be elevated just yet. It's set up to be a local morning doughnut place, which is valid but will need to fight to get people to see them. There's some promise to this business idea. They will need to commit to either a boutique tiny doughnut shop or a local pick up and on demand delivery spot. Either one could work, but they need to find their footing first. For those interested in trying this place, it's a good spot for a little sweet treat. Stick to the non-chocolate flavors, get enough to share, and enjoy!

These small freshly made doughnuts are fun and creative. With gluten-free, and made-to-order options the staff can really accommodate every palette. Great for families and the college crowd. While the toppings may not be gourmet in quality - they are not trying to be. I am very interested in seeing where this business goes. There are so many options and directions for the owner to go with this concept. Excited to see the future!!

I always say, coffee shop reviews are generally only meaningful to people who share your coffee…read morehabits. I drink black iced coffee. I prefer it to be made from Single Origin beans, from places like Africa that have bright flavor profiles. And I prefer a medium light roast that highlights the quality of the bean. Most places make their iced coffee from blends and medium dark or dark roast levels. Grounded Coffee Co is the rare CT coffee shop that made my iced coffee with an Ethiopian Single Origin roasted by Ilse. Ilse, a North Canaan, CT, was not on my radar. They are now. This was one of the best iced coffees I've had from a shop all year. And it matched my preferences. Grounded is small, but the shop was cute, had some inside seating, and seemed to have an outside seating area, although I did not go out back to see it. Service was friendly and helpful. Very impressed with this visit experience. Five Stars.

I…read morehad to give up oat milk a few years ago and was super bummed when I couldn't get coffee from here anymore. But the wait is over. Some old staff and some new staff, sometimes the espresso is better than other times but you gotta learn somewhere so- I get it.

It's rare to find a coffee shop that I'd drive more than 10 minutes to go to, but Sweet Aroma…read moredefinitely makes that list because it is one of the best around! I discovered it a few months ago when I was looking for a coffee shop shortly after I left for a drive to Rhode Island. The shop itself is so cute and in a central location and the service is friendly and welcoming. I recently saw that they were doing pre-orders for some of their baked goods for the holidays and decided to treat my husband and myself to an order of 6 ready to bake cinnamon bun scones. The price was more than reasonable and pick up was easy as could be. I ordered an iced peppermint mocha while picking up the scones and it was exactly the festive jolt of caffeine I was looking for. The scones came frozen with the glaze on the side and detailed instructions on how to cook them. These scones were INCREDIBLE and very easily the best we've ever had. They had that slight scone-like crisp on the outside but they were softer on the inside, just like a cinnamon roll. They were the perfect holiday treat for us to enjoy in the days leading up to Christmas. Sweet Aroma has fantastic coffee but DO NOT sleep on their baked goods because they are out of the world delicious.

Ordered an espresso based ice drink. The espresso was in a pitcher and dumped into the milk. The…read morecup looked it was barely tinted milk, the flavour was bitter milk. Any and every Barista knows espresso is to be pulled each time, never to sit long, or it separates and becomes weak and bitter. Not only was i appalled at the way the beverages were made, it looks as though a deep clean is needed. I noticed while waiting for my refund, there was a large bug, sticky with syrup, dead, right in plain sight. Along with debris all over the floor, furniture, and under items on the countertops Whomever owns, manages, trains these young ladies, needs to retake their food safety classes and brush up on proper food service. Then learn the techniques to prepare a proper espresso beverage. Iced or not, you don't pour a plastic pitcher of espresso, (who knows how long ago those shots were pulled or if it was indeed espresso) into metal, and dump over milk.

"Simple" and "no frills" are the words that come to mind when describing this establishment. I've…read morebeen here for both breakfast and dinner. Service was acceptable, but lacking in level of personality or engagement. For me, these characteristics are memorable and would help inspire me to come back. The food was as described on the menu, but equally lacking in pizazz. My Mexican Bowl was lukewarm and my friends' burgers were both well-done, despite only one of them asking for it being this way, and the fries were overcooked. I like crispy, but not to the over-the-top degree to which they were done. Bottom line: Eat here if you are hungry and your needs will be met, but this place could use a lift in sparkle and quality.

It's okay but pricy…read more I've been to this location a few more times since my last review. The last couple of times the place was very busy and getting seating was not possible. During my last visit it was relatively quiet, so I took a seat and went through the menu. My server was very friendly and professional. I took her recommendations and got the churro crepes and peppermint latte. Latte came out quick, same with the crepe. The latte was very sweet, lots of sugar and mint. Coffee flavor was obliterated, and was a bit much for me. Informed my server, offered a drip coffee as a replacement but I opted against. The crepe was going to be a lot of sugar too, so just sent it back. She communicated with her team to watch the syrup pours for future drinks, which is a good proactive move. The churro crepes. Conceptually is a good idea. The cheesecake filling was tasty and a reprieve from the avalanche of caramel syrup and sugar. The churros were warmed up but the server was very honest that they were not made on the spot. Outside of the churro was crunchy and inside was stuffed. The crepe was not warm, so I don't think it was made fresh to order either. When I asked the server, she insisted it was made to order. The price was 21 for the latte and crepe. The price of the crepe was high for the quantity and quality. The latte was reasonable for price, but might want to ask to go light on the syrup. Given the location, it's one of the few breakfast spots around that area. It's not bad, but they do price accordingly for the lack of competition. It's not a trek place, but it's one of the few options around without driving 15 minutes. If you need breakfast in that area, then it works.
