    I have been to Radial Coffee several times since they opened and each time I am blown away. They no longer stock baked goods from small state but still have a pretty good selection to go along with any of their hand crafted beverages. All their syrups are made in house and they add the perfect amount of sweetness to your beverage (if that is what you are in the mood for). The space is well appointed and has seval spots to sit and catch up with friends and benches where you could bring your lap top and get some work done. Great addition to the CT Coffee Shop Community.

    The outside

    I've been wanting to check out Radial Coffee for a while, they are located in Vernon, a bit of a blah town. So I finally took the half hour drive to check them out. They are located in what appears to be a little house. There's parking in the front for around four vehicles, on my way out I realized they have a substantial parking lot in the rear. The inside is super cute with hardwood floors, wooden furniture and comfy seating. It's not super spacious, but comfortable for a date or a solo adventure. At Radial they roast their own coffee beans. They had some pastries, but not many, probably because it was after 2:00 o'clock. For my coffee I got the Honey Maple Latte. The barista said I could take a seat, she would bring it to me. Well, it's a good thing she brought it over, because I would have spilled it. The presentation was lovely. It came in a navy ceramic cup with a saucer, with a design on top. This was one of the smoothest and creamiest coffees I've had in a while. From the texture of the latte its self, to the flavor, it is very smooth, in a way lux. The flavor was there but in a very organic way, nothing is too sugary. This was a very pleasant experience at Radial.

    Can only speak for the cappuccino (and cozy shop), but we loved this coffee. We loved it so much, that we went to their other shop in Portland, ME twice more times. Definitely will be a regular stop on in our travels. (Lots of comfy merch, too, if you're looking.)

    Have been to this coffee place fairly often, figured I would update my review. I enjoy the lattes from this location, and their coffee is always fresh. They got a big air frier, do they can warm up food on the fly. The food is good but not always the freshest. Warmed up though, it's solid. Staff is always friendly, the place is small but cozy, and the coffee is good. It's a great little local coffee shop and a go-to spot when I got to run around and do errands. Worth a try or a trek, it's a nice little coffee spot

    A knowledgeable coffee friend recommended Radial. Radial is both a roaster and coffee shop. The morning I visited, they had baked goods from Small State Provisions. The inside is both functional and comfortable enough for meetings with friends. My black iced coffee made with a Guatemalan Single Origin light roast was in the Top 10% of iced coffees I've bought from shops in the past few years. It had a slight fruit flavor and was almost tea-like. I bought a bag of the same beans for home brewing. Small State is an outstanding CT Bakery with spots at GastroPark in West Hartford and in Avon. I'm at their GastroPark location almost weekly. A coffee shop selling baked goods from Small State is a win. For this visit, the chocolate croissant and bacon cheese croissant weren't quite as fresh as I'm used to from Small State itself, although I later learned that the owner of Small State was on vacation and both Small State locations were closed the day I visited Radial. In any event, slightly less fresh Small State would be better than the offerings at most other CT coffee shops. Based upon this visit, Radial is a top tier CT coffee shop for me. 4.5 Stars

    tiramisu latte ($6)
    Chassidie L.

    #20 in my NEW ENGLAND & NY COFFEE SHOP SERIES A super cozy coffee shop that is great for studying, working, chatting, or grabbing a great drink to go. I got a hot, tiramisu pumpkin latte for my caffeine kick and study session. I stayed there for over 6 hours studying, and it was a fantastic spot! They have a large communal table, bar top, and comfy chairs. They also have outlets, parking and free wifi! If I lived closer, I would definitely go back and try more drinks. I definitely recommend if you want a good drink and good spot to get in the zone. They also have all your classic coffee shop items as well as some pastry items made in house. All of the syrups they use are made in house as well. Fun fact: on weekends, they have delicious sourdough cinnamon rolls!

    What a nice little gem of a coffee spot. I love supporting local coffee shops. What I enjoyed about radial is the customer service. They were so kind and patient to help me decide on what kind of coffee I wanted. I asked for a latte but with 4 shots espresso. The barista informed me due to the size of the cup I won't get much coffee but a to go cup would be better. I appreciated that tip because I like a strong cup to start my day. They only carry whole milk and oat milk. They make their own syrups which is a plus. I had 2 pumps of vanilla and it was the right amount of sweetness. The coffee was smooth with no bitter after taste. It's on the pricier side for 2 cups of specialty coffees it was $15 but honestly so good. Treat yo self!

    Despite having dog friendly listed on their Yelp page, they infact are not, unless your animal is a service animal. I had only stopped in because it was listed that he was welcome, otherwise I wouldn't have. Had made it just inside the door and had a quick interaction with another guest regarding my dog (she was asking his name and if she could say hi) and was told that unless he was a service animal, I needed to leave. I've had their coffee before and can say with certainty that it is really good, and the space is cozy/cute, I'm just a little sad about the confusion. Updating the Yelp page would be beneficial, so someone else doesn't make the same mistake!

    Blueberry cobbler iced latte
    Diana R.

    I was excited to try a new coffee shop and read good things about Radial. Parking in front is tight but there is some more in back. The baristas were nice but low energy. They didn't ask any questions or offer anything even though it was clear it was my first time here. I tried the gluten friendly lemon poppyseed muffin. It was kind of hard and dry. It tasted good but the texture left alot to be desired. I wouldn't get it again. I also tried the latte special which was a blueberry cobbler latte. Housemade blueberry syrup and dried blueberry crumbles on top. It was really good and I'd definitely get it again. There is plenty of space to hang out and outlets to get work done, which i did. The music playing was a good volume and was pleasant. Overall I think it could have been a better experience but I enjoyed it enough that I'll be back to try again.

    It's not easy to find too many specialty coffee shops nearby this area of CT. Radial Coffee sources locally with places like Oakridge and Small State Provisions and do their own homemade syrups and spices. Radial makes breakfast sandwiches and decadent biscotti in-house and will be looking to expand on specialty offerings / menus soon. The indoor atmosphere of Radial Coffee brings together a mix of dark and warm color palettes with elegant wood accents. Each piece of furniture was brought in with intention for design and adds to their cozy, warm setup. Their vanilla cardamom latte or their maple ginger latte are two top choices! If you're not sure which drink to try or what beans to take home, their baristas are well knowledgeable and will help with any brewing question you might have! Beyond just their espresso, they highlight their drip coffee, chai, and hot chocolate. Key Features: Parking and easy access of the main street. A large variety of different types of seating options. Milk alternatives, coffee beans and other products to purchase. A bright and inviting space to be at!

    Inside

    This place is a vibe. Love the ambiance and the baristas are so friendly / helpful. We told them it was our first time visiting and they were so thoughtful. When we said we were going to stay and sit they recommended getting to go cups because we would get more based on our coffee choices. They didn't have to do that but it was appreciated. I honestly wish this place was closer because the coffee was so good and we felt so comfortable hanging out there.

    Teddy Graham latte (fall special)

    Radial has become my new favorite coffee spot. They have the nicest staff who go above and beyond to make sure you feel welcome and enjoy your visit. They usually play good music and have a lot of seating for catch-ups with friends, studying, reading, etc. I ordered the teddy graham latte this weekend and it came with the cutest latte art!

    Selection of amazing baked goods!
    Katherine B.

    This place is fantastic! The coffee and pastries are great, along with a very comfortable and gorgeous environment. The best part of this place is the owners though, they are so kind and friendly, and remember regulars quickly! Vernon is lucky to have them!

Easily the best scones I've had. There was plenty of seating, and while the parking lot is large, the space is a bit tight. My only complaints were minor. They charged for a small cup of warm milk for my daughter, which felt unnecessary, and the service was polite but not especially warm. And my blackberry vanilla latte didn't have much of a flavor. It tasted like a regular latte. Still delicious and hit the spot. I'd happily return. The scones alone are worth the visit.

    I owe an updated review here. My past review had been negative but I welcomed to give Acoustic Java…read moreanother chance and I'm glad I did. Their coffee remains consistent and they brew the best bean in town. Truly a hidden gem...literally. They're hidden in the back of Rotmans (old furniture store) and you'll never see it from the main road. I drink coffee on a regular basis and could probably consider myself an amateur coffee snob lol. Lately I have made a purchase for teas and my wife didn't like the selections I've chose so they were welcoming and honored an exchange. I just had to pay the difference which I was glad to. We had good company with us and so there's also ample seating in the next room--you can enter from the front of the building as you enter through the main entrance or go through the back. Cheers

    I really love finding hidden gems like Acoustic Java. I am a sucker for a good book store, AND a…read moregood coffee shop, and Acoustic Java is both! I stopped by to get a couple of coffees to go, and a pastry. The staff was very patient and pleasant to chat with - something I really miss with the larger coffee chains. The coffees were made exactly as I requested, and the pastry was warmed up and wrapped in a foil to maintain the heat. I really love the attention to detail. I'll note that I noticed they use Monin brand syrups (my favorite!). They are not the cheapest option, so it goes to show that the folks at Acoustic Java care about quality over maximizing profit. The location is great - a bit hidden, but the industrial vibe just fits for a small roasting company. I love that the roastery is visible through the glass panels. The packaged beans are all laid out for you to easily read the labels and shop. I love that they carry quality tea for non-coffee drinkers/tea lovers. The merch is also cute, I was very tempted to add yet another coffee shop tote bag to my hoard. They carry a huge variety of used and new books - and they offer the most unique pricing I've ever seen. You can look up the cost of the book online - so long as the condition is roughly the same, that's how much they will charge you for the book (+ tax)! That's amazing, and I don't know how they can possibly even make money with this policy, but with the giant chain and online retailers, it's really the best incentive to get folks to support local. I think one of the biggest highlights here, on top of the great coffee, ambiance, and service, is that they offer various tastings, classes, and live music events. Personally, I feel like this is key in building a community, and I love that they do this. You can look up the different events on their website, some of which are free to attend. I can definitely see this as a place to come read a book over some tea, catch up with a friend over coffee, or take a date to a barista class for a unique experience.

So I finally got to see their storefront, and the place smells wonderful! They have an assortment of caramels and toffees, as well as a wall of bagged coffee beans, and another wall of cute coffee mugs. A very nice assortment!

    I've wanted to visit Drum Roll Coffee Roasters for a while, but I'm usually only in Old…read moreWethersfield ("OW") before or after they open. Drum Roll is predominantly a coffee roaster, but they sell some merch as well. They may serve beverages on site, but that doesn't seem to be a focus of the website or store and I was in and out when I visited. I did not see any seating. I bought two things at the small, thin store in OW, and I also recently had cold brew made with Drum Roll coffee at Bake Market in Rocky Hill. The following things stood out. First, the person who helped me, who I assume was the owner, was conversant in coffee terms that matter to me. Sometimes I talk to a store employee about single origins or roast levels, and they don't know what to say. The person who helped me knows coffee and they had a good selection. Second, my Ethiopian Single Origin Beans I used for a home pour over, turned iced coffee, were obviously fresh roasted. You could taste the roast. A coffee can actually be too fresh roasted, and based upon experience, I think some of the listed tasting notes will be more prominent in a few more days. I usually wait 7 to 10 days after the roast date before using coffee. For this reason, putting the roast date on the bag might be a good move. Third, the coffee bag is a high end bag. I buy a lot of craft coffee over the internet. Some places try to have useful bags, and some places try to save money on bags. Drum Roll has a ziplock style seal that makes keeping coffee fresh easier. Their bag is on par with other top places. Fourth, Drum Roll serves canned cold coffee. I'm not sure if they rotate their offerings. I bought one snap chilled Papua New Guinea Cold Brew can. It was very smooth and above average for a canned coffee product. Fifth, I don't remember the exact price, but I remember thinking the price was reasonable. I would definitely buy more bags if I happened to be in OW when I needed coffee beans and Drum Roll is open. Sixth, Bake Market's cold brew made with Drum Roll coffee was rich and smooth. It had a darker flavor and roast profile than I normally I drink, but it was well executed for that style. Based upon all of this, I recommend Drum Roll for people who make coffee at home. While I have my own grinder at home and buy whole beans, they even asked if I wanted the beans ground. 4.5 Stars
