This place always hits. 5/5. I find myself getting their specials every time. The cafe drinks and pastries are always perfectly made. Everything is house made, eggs even come from owners own chickens. Sauces are perfect, everything is unique and perfect. read more

Just ate here for the 4th and probably final time. The food is fine, but it's expensive to eat out these days and the quality here doesn't rise to the price level. To add insult to injury, today I ordered the Greek wrap which includes chicken. The menu says it's $12.50. Seems reasonable. I ordered, the cashier asks if I want chicken, I say yes. She then upcharges me $4 for chicken. Now it's $16.50, and not so reasonable. Plus it feels like a bait & switch. When I inquired, the manager said I was charged correctly and she's "in the process of updating the menus." Well, okay, but until that happens you should honor what's actually on it. I chose not to escalate since I was there for my husband's birthday. But I found it to be very poor customer service at an otherwise nice independent restaurant that serves the neighborhood. Disappointed for the last time. read more

Big fan of this spot for breakfast/brunch. Love the coffee/house-made flavors. They let me mix and match and I had an orange mocha latte that I'm still thinking about months later. Cute spot, friendly people! read more

Service was super quick and the girls at the front counter were really nice. Good little breakfast spot for us as we continued on our roadtrip! read more

Truly a pleasant surprise! I loved the rustic interior which made the cafe feel cozy and familiar. The pastry display is actually very beautiful and thoughtfully designed. I loved the menu that had so many options, including a seasonal menu. The food was delicious and you get a lot of bang for your buck! The coffee alone is enough to visit this place regularly. I loved that they used and sold local ingredients like Cross Culture Kombucha and a local farm. I honestly was so impressed by everything and cannot wait to go back!! I grabbed another coffee and some pastries to go. The service was really nice too! See you soon!! read more

Pretty much the only cafe spot in Danbury so it can get very busy! There are various pastries you can buy that vary depending on the day. This time I ordered a BLT sandwich which was very good. My favorite thing was the yogurt bowl with the berry compote. So simple yet so satisfying. I typically order a vanilla iced latte. It's very eclectic inside with fun seating choices. My only thing is that are areas around the restaurant that don't have a huge level of cleanliness. It would be great if this could be changed. That's preventing my last star. read more

We stopped in after doing some bridal dress shopping on Main Street and I'm so glad we did. The coffees and teas we had tasted great and the desserts were also very good! I was looking for an iced coffee but with lower caffeine than a full espresso shot and the barista worked with me to make the perfect drink. I really appreciated the extra attention. I had an overwhelming day and lost track of a bag with some very special bridal items in it. By the time I realized it, Mothership had closed. I filled out a contact form and let them know that I believed I left the bag there. I didn't anticipate a response, but wanted to send something ahead of the phone call I was going to make the next day. I got a response within a couple of hours- they contacted the closer and she let me know that my items were found! I'm eternally grateful for the peace of mind and for them going above and beyond for me. Needless-to-say, we were back in there today to pick up my items... and while we were at it, we got coffee, iced tea, some sweet treats and a Tshirt. It was busy this morning but we received kind attention! It is quite warm in the facility, so if it is a particularly hot or humid day, you may prefer takeout. Either way, I highly recommend stopping by! read more

I wanted to like this place because it looked promising....but the food fell a little short. The almond croissant was yummy, but my breakfast wrap was lacking any flavor. I also noticed that the tables are not wiped clean in between patrons. The tables are simply cleared. Not very hygienic and this is the biggest reason I won't come back. The place was cute, but I'd like to know my table is at least disinfected before I eat. read more

Very cute place, extremely packed so make reservations. Don't order the rosemary brown sugar latte tasted lack luster and just a weird combination in general i got it since it sounded interesting, but interesting is where that ended. The sandwiches made up for it though I got the California they give so much pork to the point where one half is extremely filling. read more

Absolutely delicious and in such a cozy and warm dining room! We love mothership and keep coming back and bringing friend and family. There's truly something for every appetite and dietary restrictions are easy to manage here. They have amazing baked goods that are baked fresh daily and dont forget a delicious coffee or tea. They even make their own iced tea in house. As far as food goes I love the salads and the egg dishes are unique and delicious. I've never disliked a single bite. Everything feels well priced. They get busy on weekends but it's worth the wait and you can always order some pastries and coffee to go. read more

Welcoming, cozy spot great for breakfast & lunch. Quite possibly the best home fries I have ever had, along with an innovative and wide ranging menu of flavors. Must try the "skillet" options. Large portions & so worth the drive from Westchester for breakfast. We've become regulars. And... I'm a few pounds heavier since we found this gem. read more

The vibe and food are so wonderful here! I had a latte and avocado toast with their fresh cut french fries. Friendly staff and I love the mix and match retro diner furniture. Lots of art featuring women artists too! read more

Took 15 mins for our server to come over. My buddy and I ordered cold brews and they came out with steaming hot coffee. Told the server and it took another 15 minutes for the correct cold brew to come out. It tasted like gasoline and nitric acid, someone didn't mix it right. The food was mediocre and over priced. Highway robbery. They are money laundering through this establishment read more

In the Danbury area visiting some family and found this hidden gem! This food is the best food I've had in a while. Fresh, flavorful and overall great. Service is amazing as soon as we sat down we got our food within 10 minutes. Ambiance is very cozy and homey. It feels like you're stepping into someone's kitchen to have a good meal! Staff is very friendly! Overall 5/5 stars will be coming back. read more

Already itching to go back to this spot over and over again! Right off of the busy streets of Danbury, you'll find this hidden coffee spot filled with so much purity. A team of genuinely happy employees that match each satisfied customer. So amazing to hear that this once started as a bakery out of an AirStream trailer placed around parking lots of Danbury before landing Mothership's current location. They make everything from scratch, top to bottom and they have zero food waste. All of the food scraps feed their 100's of chickens and they grow many ingredients themselves. They even roast all of their coffee beans! The owner Anna takes pride that all food should be natural and made from scratch..."its the best version of homemade!". Whether it's the pastries or this lavender latte, a full breakfast or lunch, Mothership will not disappoint...Truly the Pastries are DELICIOUS! Key Features: Lots of seating available for dining and/or workspace. Area for kids to play in the corner. They have to-go reusable mugs to purchase for a great price as well as beans to go. Employees were quick and friendly! The lavender latte was very fresh, hot when served. Pastries were clearly fresh and full of flavor. Search ahead for parking down the street if you can't sneak a spot in the front. read more

We just left Mothership on Main and wow! I am super happy with the food quality and options here! I elected to get the Brioche French toast with a yummy berry compote, and I added a side of 1 poached egg and bacon. Hubby got a shroom omelette and we split a goats in the garden salad with chicken. There was so much food we could have very easily fed another whole adult, but I was in a "girl dinner for breakfast" kinda mood. The brioche French toast was a little drier than I preferred, but the fresh berry compote, and real maple syrup sure made up for that. I also realize not everyone likes their French toast eggy and soft cooked in the center like me... The poached egg was poached to perfection. I feel like I am probably one of the pickiest people on earth when it comes to a poached egg, but the yolk was warm, and the perfect balance of runny and gooey. The white was fully cooked and still soft enough for my crispy bacon to pierce it from just laying next to it (really; perfection). The salad...I will definitely be craving it from now on. The chicken and beets were cooked with balsamic and they had the perfect balance. Not too vinegary, not too sugary, not overpowering. You could still taste the freshness of the food, and enjoy the natural flavor along with the richly flavored ingredients. The fennel was a wonderful addition and one of my favorite parts of the salad. Everything came together so exquisitely and my tastebuds danced as each bite hit my tongue. My Mr really enjoyed his omelette; but since it had onions I didn't partake. We brought home enough leftovers for a lunch as well, and now they got me counting the minutes until lunchtime. 10/10, will definitely come again. read more

I was looking for a great/unique breakfast place in the area and mothership on main definitely stands out as one of the best! I love the Idaho girl skillet. The ingredients are always fresh. I was also on a mission to find the best pancakes in the area and I believe they did have the best pancakes but they got rid of them. Hopefully they bring them back! :) If they do, they are the absolute best and I highly recommend trying them. The waffles are ok but not as good. read more

Cute coffee and breakfast spot with a relaxed vibe. I order a normal coffee with vanilla syrup and it was very good - exactly what you would expect going to a local coffee/pastry shop. Husband ordered the chicken and pao de queijo waffles dish, which is chicken and waffles Brazilian style. The waffle itself was made from Brazilian cheese bread rather than traditional mix. We both really liked it, but just be aware in case you have a traditional chicken and waffles thought in mind. Chicken itself was fried well and had good flavor. I ordered the avocado toast. I liked it, but I do wish it had another layer of freshness to it since it felt a little heavy with the egg, avocado, and chipotle sauce. A little pickled red onion would have been perfect! Parking is hit or miss. There are about 6 spots in the front and a few in the back. We went on a Monday morning there was only one spot left in the front. But once you're inside, there ample seating with about 15-20 tables that can fit groups from 2-6. Really cute spot with a fun friendly vibe and helpful service. read more

I love coming here. The atmosphere is just so lively, calm and friendly. The staff is amazing. There's a gentlemen that normally helps us on the sitting side and he is phenomenal. We love his personality and love all his recommendations all the time. I always tell him about my allergies and he works around everything and substitutes with me. The food is delicious. I love their vegan avocado, tomato, tofu on their bread with chimichurri sauce. Although I don't eat the bread bc of the cheese. I mix it all up with salad that it comes with and it's so yummy. My husband normally gets their bacon egg and cheese. I also love their chai tea. They also have yummy treats like muffins, and other stuff. At least that's what my friends normally get. Not that I've tasted it personally bc I'm gf. Every once in awhile they do have gf muffins. Try this place you won't be disappointed read more

I will start by saying we are longtime supporters of Mothership and customers since they opened. We recently moved to PA and made a point to visit Mothership for breakfast on a return trip to CT. we ordered a few items to go, breakfast entrees (an egg skillet and an oatmeal), and two lattes. We got our number and retired to a table to wait. my husband's egg skillet arrived, followed shortly thereafter by the lattes. I continued to wait, but no oatmeal. I finally went back to the counter, waited in line again, to ask the person who rang me out about the status of the oatmeal. It turns out she was supposed to make it at the counter. a co worker next to her apologized and said they would bring it right out to me. So, back to the table I went. where I waited. And waited. my husband is now finished his meal and latte. So he returns to the counter (where there is now no line) to ask the person who checked us out about the oatmeal. She had not even started it! She then said she would bring it to us but my husband refused and told her he would wait. He then brought me what I at first thought was a latter because there was a mug of frothy milk with no oatmeal in sight. Turns out chunks of gummy oatmeal and blueberries were floating in a giant cup of milk. It was the first item I've ever had from Mothership that was not just bad. it was gross. We were so bummed about the entire experience, and it has definitely negatively colored what has until now been a love for Mothership. read more

Recently went for brunch and had the best cocktails and French press coffee. The chicken and waffles with cheese does not disappoint. Service is always friendly and while laid back still efficient.

This delightful restaurant does not disappoint! The restaurant is open and charming, the staff equally charming and personable, and the food & baked goods are delicious! We shared the Greek omelette and a skillet - both plentiful and flavorful. We took a table right in front of the kitchen and watched the Baker prepare lovely treats and watched all the food come out of the kitchen! Yum! While all the tables were taken, the atmosphere remained happy and quiet. We watched customers transition from retirees to students to young moms with littles - all are welcome. Lovely breakfast experience! read more

After a trip to the Danbury hospital we went looking for a breakfast/ brunch place. Yelp listed this place just a short distance away. The pictures of the food looked great. The menu seemed like fun so we went. The inside atmosphere was inviting although since we entered through the " back door", we must have looked a little disoriented. About 5 steps in, one if the regular customers approached us and gave us all the inside " scoop"... always a good sign of a friendly place when a customer is eager to help. The food was fresh, plentiful, flavorful and authentic. Many of the dishes come from a Latin cuisine and would have made Chef Rick Bayless envious. The staff is terrific... smiling, helpful and attentive . We considered this to be a great "find", unexpectedly so. Go hungry and enjoy. read more

Where do I even begin...SO, first thing's first - I swear this whole review is dedicated to our server: Will! He was amazing and absolutely made our experience at Mothership one of a kind! Came here on a Sunday right at the peak time, assumed we would never even be able to get a seat in here. From the outside, you would NEVER imagine what's inside. Never judge a book by it's cover? More like never judge a restaurant by their storefront! LOL! I totally did. Only because I would never have expected Mothership to be so big and full of life as soon as you walk in! I've heard great things about this amazing place by many friends. I'm ( of course) the type to not buy the hype. AKA: I have to try it for myself. I had zero expectations...ZERO. Also, I happen to be on a gluten free detox which also made this a little harder for me to try to even get some awesome breakfast. I'm also vegetarian and don't eat eggs. I'm only saying this so you can get an idea of how complicated a person like me walking into a bomb brunch spot is. Basically, in my brain, I was only going to be able to eat a salad with coffee...gross combo btw. Well. Here's what totally changed my whole morning around: Will. He took our drink order right away, their coffee is basically swimmable. I can literally insert my chihuahua in the large coffee mugs LOL! Their house roasted black coffee was pretty pretty delish! Decided to order an oat milk caffè macchiato (no not like the Starbucks one) and it was pretty potent and had its kick. It did NOT disappoint. On to the tricky part: the food ordering. As soon as I told Will my dietary needs, he immediately pointed out all the endless possibilities there were. Starting off with the Pao De Queijo waffles...I was SOLD. Even though this is served as the traditional chicken and waffles, we were able to substitute and customize things so easily that ordering turned out to be a breeze. Basically: Mothership On Main caters to almost all of your dietary needs. Gluten free, vegetarian, vegan, there are SO many options. On that note, can we skip to the fries part? Queso and chimichurri...SOLD. Literally still dreaming with them. Such an amazing place, staff, ambiance. You can come in, order from the bakery area (which btw also have lots of gluten free options), get a hot drink, a cocktail, chill in the lounge area if you want things more casual. If you rather sit and eat, you can do that too! Basically, anything and everything is possible here. Will, can't thank you enough! Seriously made our first time at Mothership be the first of many to come! Thanks to the hard working staff, the brains behind the scenes, the cooks, bakers, waiters, everyone. You're doing it right!!!!! read more
