Our dessert was strawberry & blueberry pastry- incredibly flaky layers. I was surprised to discover those were filo dough-like layers. Melting in the mouth, but slightly on the heavy side. The Bavarian cream in the middle was just a touch of delicacy. Not overwhelming. My house Doro medium roast was incredibly satisfying , no aftertaste-as coffee can have. I asked if they offered refills, & unbelievably although the answer was No, I got a cup of refill all the same. Will be back.

I found the imported and homeland cheese selection to be quite extensive. All of my favorites plus plus plus. Carson served me as I chose a few different cheese, bread and meat items with tastes along the way. I also met Christine who is the shop owner and had a great exchange with her. The store was well stocked with specialty foods, gift items and lots of holiday paper napkins. I went in for cheese knives and found a nice selection to choose from. There were still lots of table/kitchen/dining items even though it was right after we rang in the new year. I definitely be back for more!

I just love this specialty store! The extensive choice of quality coffees is just amazing. I have…read moretried several different varieties of caffeinated and decaffeinated coffees, some organic and some not organic and found them all quite smooth, even bodied and delicious. I have also tried their breads, homemade cookies and chocolates and have been extremely happy with the quality, freshness and taste. The whole store is stocked full with edible and gift goodies. This place is a real find and worth the trip. I try to make a stop about once a month when I am visiting the area.

Love this place! Great drinks and great atmosphere! The service was phenomenal will be backread more

Peek A Brew | Playcafe is an absolute gem for parents with little ones ages 2 to 5. It's part…read moreindoor play gym, part cozy coffee house, and all genius. For the Littles: The play area is bright, clean, and perfectly designed for toddlers and preschoolers to run wild (safely). Think padded climbing structures, sensory bins, soft slides, and imaginative play zones that rotate weekly -- my 3-year-old was deep in "construction site mode" while my 5-year-old served invisible ice cream from a pretend café. The staff gently supervise, which meant I wasn't on constant edge. For the Grown-Ups: While my kids happily socialized, I kicked back with a hot Teddy Gram Latte -- graham cracker, cinnamon, and nostalgia in a cup. Absolutely out of this world. I even had time for a couple rounds of Uno and Connect 4 with other parents at the communal board game table. It's the first time I've laughed mid-day in a café without needing to apologize for spilled apple juice. Ambience & Cleanliness: Modern, cozy, and spotless. Everything from the check-in system to the foam flooring feels thoughtfully designed. No sticky tables or chaotic energy here -- just calm, comfort, and the hum of happy children. Final Word: Peek A Brew | Playcafe might be the parenting holy grail: your kids play and socialize while you sip great coffee and finally finish a game of Uno. We'll be back weekly -- and I'm telling every parent I know.

In Old Saybrook on Main Street I stopped by Cafe Toscana for some coffee with my two friends. This…read moreis a tiny little coffee shop that also makes some breakfast options. It looks cute from the outside, but looks like it could use a little refreshment both inside and outside. The outside screen door is hanging by a thread. The man working inside appeared to be the owner. And he was the only one I saw working. There was a woman in front of me, who was waiting for her order. Then it was my turn, I walked up to the counter to place my order, and he immediately said "do you know what you want? I'll take him instead." Referring to a customer sitting down. I just walked over, I wasn't hanging out. I'd say that's a bit uninviting and off putting. I quickly ordered a French Vanilla ice coffee, a hot coffee and an ice tea. There is an area where you can add what you need to your coffee. At the counter there is a sign that says to step away after you make your order. We got our coffees and sat outside. These were actually 20 ounce coffees for $10.00 altogether, so it was a real bargain. My coffee was perfect, flavorful, fresh and delicious! He truly makes excellent coffee here. I didn't like how off putting he was. Starbucks is just a few doors away. I'd much rather support a small business like this one then a chain like Starbucks. Coffee is excellent, I can't speak for the breakfast, there's plenty of room for improvement for the establishment and the vibe inside.
