Terrific and snazzy Tazza (Espresso and Coffee) Cafe in Ridgefield is very quaint and very…read moredelicious. This cafe is modern. It has none of that 500-year old cigarette fumes have been seeping into the woodwork-type that you may find in Paris. Tazza Cafe is brilliant and squeaky clean, though not bright inside. Tables are for no more than 2 people (max!). But there are a few tables outside along Main Street and you might be able to snag an extra chair for a trio business meeting, or so. As has been noted, Tazza Cafe has lots of delectable sweets, baked goods, croissants, sandwiches, paninis, cookies, stuffed items, salads and Italian noisette biscotti to dunk in that Java! All the items are neatly (and I mean in rows :) ) displayed behind luminous glass. The items are not marked by name and price, which is a bit of a stumper for normal customers (I can tell by experience) - but in my book it's okay if they rotate items periodically or change their places depending on what is selling that week. Two gals were running the bar-high railed table: one was nocking out the orders and payments, the other was running the espresso machine. My order was a double Espresso and a sweet Linzer Tart (I always get them since my Grandmother used to spoil me with them). Although my espresso at Tazza Cafe only very barely reached a HALF (tiny) cup - it was strong. It was pungent. It had almost a kind of plum and barky flavor. It tasted thick & good. The coffee station however was a mismatch of space for local papers and news taking up the space for cream and milk and syrups (which was oddly missing). The interior fits the town of Ridgefield. Upper-scale. Suave. Lots of mirrors and glass and black surfaces. This is no riff-raff shop like out in Cali! At first I thought it may be a *chicks-preferred* type of puppy-pink peony-kale & baby food smoothie-type coffee shop, but NO there were groups of dudes languishing in chairs with cigarettes and lattes taking a break. Arrived at 9am and there were 8-9 customers. One thing: that entrance door is tough. Weak armed elderly customers with not much strength had trouble yanking it open from outside. Me, I had trouble getting out with a cup in one hand and a bag in the other. Hey proprietor: Oil the door or lower the jam! That said: Tazza Cafe serves il caffe perfetto e un po' forte in this chef's review! Tazza Cafe's top notch. Review: 5+

Not a good experience…read more Cappuccino had hardly anything in the cup. Went in at around 3p and wanted an Açaí bowl was told the kitchen closed at 2p. Does it take a chef to serve premade açaí bowls and chop up bananas, smear peanut butter and sprinkle granola?

They also have a gift shop section near the back. The day we went, they had a vintage blue truck selling flowers which was very cute. The iced latte itself was OK, the hot espresso was poured directly into the plastic cup, I would have used a ceramic mug or a stainless steel milk jug to transfer it over after cooling down. Although we were acknowledged, service was a bit slow for being the only ones in line.

I own business & am successful. Wanted to pay but had to wait 15 minutes. This has happened 3 times so I stopped going. If service was the three super sweet women behind counter I'd be there all the time. They helped 2 times & really are wonderful. The milk was spoiled for coffee drink one time so please check your drinks carefully. I'm from the city & used to faster nicer service. City people are harsh to some and I'm ok with that as in NYC over 15 years since are 14. But this was me standing 3 feet from someone while holding products & them reveling in ability to ignore...

There is minimal "seating" inside but we didn't plan on staying. There were two lounge chairs we sat at shortly outside which was nice (pictured). Got an iced chai latte - delicious, a tad sweet and an iced matcha latte - not as strong as we hoped. "The-Damn Good Sandwich" was stellar however a bit pricey. Overall great experience and the staff was super friendly!

After 17 minutes had passed the exhausted barista is still struggling while the four other staffers are largely just talking to one another (one woman is slowly emptying trash). The cashier who noted she hadn't been in for a month (one hears a lot while waiting for 20 minutes for a simple order) is just listless as there is no line but won't help the backlog. At one point she tells the drowning barista, who is already running more than 10 minutes late 'you are doing great' right before going back to the register and leaning on the counter. I approach her as my order is still not ready to request a refund and rather than just pull the cold brew lever to make the second drink she announces 'we'll, one is ready, do you want it?' She takes labors to demand the app and scan although she can fully see the order on her screen and needs a paper receipt signed to refund the drink they they can't bring themselves to possibly make. She is sure to wish me 'the loveliest of days' as I leave. Somehow it is the customer's fault for ordering there. The staff couldn't give less of a care, which is unfortunate. They could do so much more business if they even half tried, or if the staff supported one another.

Next time lock your door if you've already shut down....oh wait---you can't do that...you are still technically "open".
