Stumbled upon this cute bake shop in west Hartford. Enjoyed an iced coffee and some sweet treats. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Restaurant was clean. Prices were fair
I was looking at IG. I came across these delicious sandwiches. They do breakfast and catering. I walked into the establishment. It was so cozy. They had couches, and tables and their coffee's were good. They have several different homemade breads. I viewed all 179 pics. I came across a "Southwestern Turkey Sandwich". The friendly cashier told me it was her favorite sandwich. Of course, I took a pick of the surroundings. When you are in CT. Make sure you visit" Hartford Baking Co. for your food. Yelpers let's continue to eat our way through the world.
Pretty basic bagel sandwiches at an above average price. I love that there is a gluten free option though and it was very good. We placed an order for delivery so we did not get to experience the dining area or staff. One bagel in our order was wrong - it looks like they had to manually transfer the order from Uber Eats to their system and it was transferred over incorrectly (because the receipt taped to the bag with our name had the wrong order on the receipt).
I made a special trip to come to Hartford Baking Company. I have to catch the Port Jeff ferry at a certain time but to me breakfast is an essential part of my day? Now add outrageous coffee? Hartford Baking Company, you make my heart sing! Baked goods? I'm all in for a freshly made scone, so so good. The bakery itself is very large, lots of tables for sitting with a hot cuppa coffee and your freshly baked items.
While in Glastonbury, my friend and I stopped by The Hartford Baking Company. I've never been impressed by their coffee, so I got a Blood Orange iced tea. My friend got a hot chocolate. I've been eyeing their Junk Bar every time I've gone inside. To feel less guilty about it, we got one to share. It is so very clean, spacious and bright inside. I asked for a plate when we got our Junk Bar Brownie. They told me they don't have plates. This is very strange. Don't people dine inside, they have tables for sitting, how do they not offer plates to eat off of? I knew the Junk Bar would create a huge junky mess inside of their very clean space. We ate it of a piece of paper, and it made a mess. Rant aside. This is absolutely delicious. This is a chocolate brownie, with marshmallows, Oreos, pretzels and coconut. All of it together, is so good, sweet and a bit of a salty crunch. My friend really enjoyed her hot chocolate. My Blood Orange iced tea wasn't very flavorful at all. I asked to add some honey, that was ok. They make delicious sandwiches and great bread, which I've had previously.
This is a really cute and calming coffee shop to visit if you ever need a place to relax or have a chat with a friend. The location they have in West Hartford is much larger and probably better for studying and working, while their location in Glastonbury is better for just hanging out. I ordered a plain black coffee with almond milk and was surprised with how well it tasted. Out of all the coffee shops I have tried in town, Hartford Baking Co. is definitely at the top of my list after my last visit. I also tried their breakfast sandwich and peach crostata which were also as delightful. I definitely recommend giving this place a try and plan on returning for my next coffee run!
Come on $3.21 for a can of soda let's be real and $10 for a small egg and cheer sandwich with some worse bacon looking this place is a worse place to spend your money do not support this place when they trying to take $3.21 for a can of soda not even a bottle yea I would never come here again
Went to this place on a whim, half-exhausted from the gym and looking for a coffee in the morning. Still a bunch of places I have yet to try, and this one's been on my radar for a few days. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I stammered in and asked for the best thing they had. They made mention their chocolate croissants were fresh made and still warm, and their breakfast sandwiches were really good. opted for the sausage sandwich, got a cold brew and a brown butter chocolate chip cookie with one of those fresh croissants. Some items didn't survive the trek home, hence the lack of pictures. But everything was very good! The Chocolate croissant was the best of the lot. still slightly warm, flaky and crispy and just sweet enough. Very tasty, and glad I opted for it, even if it ruined my gym gains. The coffee was cold brew using Giv beans, which a lot of the higher-up places use. Very solid coffee, no bitter notes but earthy and hints of chocolate. Felt a little bad adding milk to it, was expecting the coffee to be mediocre as best The sandwich was good, but not amazing. the cheese didn't have much in the way of flavor, and the fresh-ground sausage was light on seasoning. The roll was very good, soft and toasted in real butter. It kind of overshadowed the other ingredients though. The brown butter cookie was also good but kind of one-note, slightly mealy and was missing salt. Was very sweet and needed other flavors to help curb the sugar flavor of the cookie. Price was okay, coffee was 4 bucks for a very solid cold brew. sandwich was 5.50 so a decent price. They really have mastered the bread, and it shows in their quality. The rest, well it needs a little more flavor. it's leaps and bounds better than any large-chain breakfast places I know of. So if you're in the area, give them a go!
I hadn't yet been to this HBC location until the other day when I went to get my decadent dark hot chocolate and I absolutely love it! I didn't realize how big this location was until I pulled up, and it's really nice inside. The staff who took my order were beyond nice and really funny, and it was a really enjoyable ordering experience. And now, about the reason I was there. This month they're featuring a different hit chocolate weekly and this last week was a dark hit chocolate with either a marshmallow or whipped cream. I'm extra, so I got both, and wow was it beyond delish. I am going to have to come back weekly now to try the others as well, because it was that good!
This is such a cute little coffee shop with amazing offerings for food! I had a delicious cappuccino and one of the best gluten-free avocado toasts I have ever had! The smoked salmon was beautifully seasoned with salt and sesame seeds, and the avocado was perfect! The music inside was a little bit loud, but the tables were perfectly spaced apart, I felt like I had privacy, and they have a very big parking lot for a little cafe! They are also open later than most local coffee shops and its a perfect place for an afternoon study session!
So excited they opened this new location literally 10 minutes from our house! Ordered takeout the other day after an AM appointment in Glastonbury. The wait wasn't long and everything was just as good as what we've recieved at other locations. There's nothing worse than ordering the same thing at a new location and it not tasting the same - that's NOT the case here. Our favorite sandwich is the E-BAT which is an egg sandwich with bacon, avocado, and tomato on biroche. The only downfall is that they don't serve sandwiches "pressed" at this location when they do at others...perhaps it's coming soon. However, the sandwich was just as good! So excited for this local company to blow up in Gbury!
I love walking in the door and getting a "hello!" The app works great and the order is always ready, most times, as I come early after a sunrise run/workout, they get the order done very fast. The tomato jam on the egg sandwich is awesome Since I live a distance away I always etc. extra rolls for the freezer, so I get to enjoy the taste anytime I grill. I am a fan of the scones and sometimes take one home to freeze as well. warms well in the oven! Wide open seating, clean and with some outside tables I meet up with my Hartford area folks after when I know I am coming up. Go enjoy!
I tried the almond croissant, the dubai chocolate croissant, and a brownie. I have to say, the dubai chocolate croissant was incredible--rich, flaky, and perfectly chocolatey. The croissants in general are fabulous, and the brownie was a nice treat too. Definitely a must-visit if you love pastries! read more

First time coming here and I tried a hazelnut cold brew iced coffee along with some pastries. We got a pecan cinnamon roll and the pecan coffee cake. I wish the coffee roll had a little bit more filling or streusel in the middle as it was kind of dry, but the glazing on the top was perfect blend of sweetness with the crunch. The coffee cake was very good with crunchy brown sugar crust on top. I would definitely get this one again and warm it up. There are multiple seats available on the first floor, as well as the second however, on the second floor, you can view the street at window seating. There is also a couch and other comfortable seating upstairs. The service was exceptionally good, and both the staff who assisted made the transaction easy. I only wish the rolls were sold in smaller quantity than 12 as I don't like to freeze bread and won't eat them all before they expire. Next time, I will have to try the bread as it looked very good and fresh read more

Decided to pick up some bread at HBC as I was driving by. Service was decently friendly, but a bit distracted. HBC has discounted day old bread, and I bought a loaf of Sesame Semolina. I cut a half inch-ish slice, lightly sprayed it with some oil and air-fried it for 2 and 1/2 minutes at 360. When it was done, I buttered it. It was crunchy, buttery and hot on the outside and soft inside. Tremendous! I also bought a loaf of country sourdough and a couple brownies to share with the Fam. The sourdough had beautiful color and etchings. I haven't eaten any yet, but I know from prior visits that it's very good bread. The brownies were rich and chocolatey, crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. read more
Our first time in and everyone was super friendly and helpful with our bagel/ cream cheese questions. And we had them lol Very clean restaurant and we will def return to try some sandwiches with the freshly made bread. Which we also bought a lovely country onion sourdough that they freshly sliced. YUM! read more
This is a nice place to sit down, drink coffee and work. The downstairs can get packed and busy but upstairs is pretty spacious with lots of seating. I sat by the window with a nice view and enjoyed my cappuccino and sandwich. Go here is you have some down time and want to catch up on stuff or need a grab and go bite to eat and coffee. read more

Absolutely delish!!! Happened upon this gem when our original stopped was overbooked. And so glad it was! The egg sandwich with avocado on a brioche bun is heaven sent. Iced coffee was perfect. Customer service could not be topped and location was easy-to find. Think we found our new favorite breakfast spot read more

Craved a bagel. Stopped in to try the one with salmon on it. Not bad, not wonderful. It ended up being closer to $11 for just a bagel, cream cheese and salmon. They also only have plain cream cheese? Would have loved to have fresh tomato or something else to brighten it up. Staff was friendly though and informative when I was debating a few things. read more

3.5 stars is accurate. I've been to both the West Hartford and the Glastonbury HBC locations for both breakfast and lunch a number of times. This was my first time dining in at either location. Ordered an E-BAT sandwich (egg, bacon, avocado and tomato on brioche) with a large oat milk cafe mocha. Paid for an extra two shots of espresso that I unfortunately don't believe actually made it into my beverage. It was too hot to drink while I was there, so I didn't notice until after I had eaten and left. Otherwise the coffee was decent. There was a short line but I was able to place my order within a couple of minutes and it was ready within a reasonable time thereafter. I was grossed out by the dirty tables throughout that the staff had neglected to wipe down while I was there. The tomato on my sandwich was quite sad, all that was really left was the core of the slice, with avocado that was barely there. I would have happily traded one of the two eggs on the sandwich for more fresh tomato and avocado. Salt and pepper on the tomato would have made a world of difference. At $15 for coffee and a breakfast sandwich, I had hoped for a bit more and was somewhat disappointed. read more

Finally made it in to try this place. I love the oldies that are playing. Kinda reminds me of being at granny's house for the summer. I got the avocado toast with egg whites and bacon. Bread was fresh and so was the avocado. My chai latte was very good. I asked them to add cinnamon on top and in it which made it perfect! I was informed they make their own chai daily. The raspberry tea was refreshing. I got sweetener added to it however it didn't make much of a difference. Staff was friendly and service was fast. read more

At the recommendation of two friends, stopped in for lunch today. Plenty of parking, and very clean / safe atmosphere. I had the Roast Chicken Salad, which is advertised as house roasted. It was graced with avocado, tomato, and romaine on ciabatta. All I can say is that it was fresher than a typical 13-year old boy is to his parents. It was SOOOO good. And I detected a very slight hint of lemon, at times. HBC is open daily from 7 to 4. At present, limited outdoor seating (3 small tables). Indoor seating probably fills up pretty quickly at lunch. read more

Avocado toast on point and a tasty iced latte made for a quick pick me up. The inside is arranged well for spacious seating including a pick up area for food on the side. Many mouth watering food options to choose from so I had a hard time choosing honestly but was very satisfied with the Avo toast. Perfectly toasted bread with fresh avocado and sprinkle of lemon. Loved it. Will have to go back to try other menu selections. Hopefully the staff will be a little less scattered. I went a few months ago, I think not too long after they opened, and it felt like there was a lot of staff on hand and they weren't quite sure who was doing what so it took a min before I was tended to. Hopefully they've figured that out by now. read more

Really cute place. Visiting from out of town, and looking to support a local business. Great stop for snacks. Definitely a step up from Panera establishment. Clean, bright, airy, spacious industrial look --LOVE IT!!! The food is great too! We picked up breakfast burrito, BEC on Brioche,, BLTA. Their baked goodie ar delicious as well.. sorry no photos. Raspberry bar on a shortbread and tart. Not overly sweet. Junk bar is sweeter than the raspberry bar. Chocolate, pretzels, coconut all makes a perfect bite of sweet, salty and crunchy. We also got one of their weekend specials - pecan, walnut sticky buns. Yuummmmm!! You should stop by. read more
