Lovely Pastry shop in Winchester, with some more offerings…read more This place is one part pastry shop, one part charcuterie shop, one part wine shop and one part European market. It's open and airy. They have seating in the back. The pastries were so good. Looking forward to trying more stuff there. They also have coffee and specialty drinks they make. The cheese and meat area is a separate counter with all your charcuterie needs. The cheeses looked so good. There are meats as well. Beyond that is a little nook of wine and spirits. The front of the store in like a little European market. They have oils and candies and sauces. This place is great for pastry but I would come before hosting a party to get wine, charcuterie and pastry all in one place. Love everything about this place. Service was awesome. Staff so friendly.

I also grabbed a tomato pesto pastry for later and will have to return for the savory scone! Service was friendly and prompt, and the space is classy, French-inspired, and very clean. It's bigger than it looks on the outside and as a foodie I loved looking at all the cheeses, meats, wines, and goods. This is a nice place to pick up a gift and/or snack for a dinner party. They also have a few outdoor bistro tables. It's conveniently located right by the newly accessible Winchester commuter rail in a nice little part of the downtown area. A bit spendy, but I'll be back!

I needed to kill time while my son was taking a driving lesson in Winchester. It's not really worth…read moredriving home to sit there for 15 minutes and I'll drive back to pick him up. Decided to stop into the local caffe Nero in Winchester. As far as chain goes, this is a very small location, but still retains the airy industrial eclectic feel of a warehouse filled with combination of rustic furniture and your grandparents antique stuffed chairs and a fireplace that belongs in a log cabin. I like to say it still has cozy vibes and is conducive to enjoying a lengthy conversation with your friends. There were two people at the counter and the one who served me was polite, but also seemed pretty tired. I am guessing I arrived at the end of her long holiday Monday shift. I did not stop her from making my oatmilk matcha latte with love and artistry. I know countertop with my laptop and free Wi-Fi with USB ports and electric sockets available for free (or for the price of a coffee or tea). It's loud in here, but I will put in my headphones and get into flow until I need to pick my son up. Thank you, Caffè Nero. This is exactly what I needed.

I understand that prices are what they are now, but it's still something you notice. Even so, I stopped in, and overall, I'm glad I did. The almond croissant was genuinely very good. The almond flavor was present and clear without being overpowering or overly sweet, which is harder to pull off than it sounds. It tasted fresh and well-made, not like an afterthought sitting under glass all day. The sugar-free caramel latte was also solid--creamy, rich, and well-balanced. It didn't taste watered down or overly artificial, which can sometimes happen with sugar-free syrups. The atmosphere lands somewhere between calm and busy. There's a steady hum of low conversation, the usual coffeehouse music quietly filling the space, and dim lighting that feels intentional rather than gloomy. It's comfortable and relaxed, the kind of place where you can sit, read, think, or pretend to get work done without feeling rushed. The staff was friendly, efficient, and knew what they were doing. Ordering was quick and easy, with no confusion or awkward pauses. There's a good selection of standard coffee shop food--sandwiches, croissants, pastries, power bars, and other small bites--nothing groundbreaking, but enough variety to find something that works. Overall, it's a pleasant and reliable experience. Not especially memorable, but consistently good, comfortable, and well-run. You leave satisfied, caffeinated, and only mildly aware of what you just spent, which feels about right.

I noticed this little shop across the street called bagels and brew and decided to stop in to check it out. First of all the interior is adorable, but please be warned that there are a few steps down so not accessible for everyone. The staff is very nice and funny and they all seem to enjoy working together and were even supporting one of the workers who had some neck pain. Best of all the bagels are fresh and delicious with lots of options to choose from. Also, my thin, mint decaf almond milk latte really hit the spot. So much better than a Dunkin' Donuts latte!

It's basically a plain bagel. Will not be coming back if this cost $8 for basically 2 plain bagels.

For a bakery and not homemade, it was really yummy and you can actually taste the blueberry. It's definitely a cute shop with a few parking spots and very adorable inside. I will go back to try other flavors as well. The texture and the crumb were amazing. I get so tired of dry and crumbly muffins so this was a refreshing change. Service was good and quick.

There were literally 3 people sitting with laptops at tables, and one other customer waiting for food pick up. After waiting for my order for half an hour, I had to chase down a staff member to inquire how much longer was my order going to take. At first, they couldn't find it in the computer. Then they told me they had to make the soup I ordered because they were apparently out of it and didn't bother to tell me. Ten minutes later, they handed me a bag and I went (late) to my meeting. When I opened my Turkey, Bacon, Avocado, Lettuce and Tomato sandwich, not only was it on the wrong bread, but there was no turkey to be found. Come on guys! You can do better!

It was pretty slow in the evening, with a handful of folks working on their laptops or in conversation. My mocha was ready quite quickly, and I sat down to enjoy it. To be honest, it wasn't the pinnacle of coffee craftsmanship, but it's certainly decent enough to accompany a chat with a friend.
