If you live in walking distance you just might find your way here every day, but there is plenty of parking if you're not around the corner. Aside bagels and spreads is a small sandwich menu, and people come and go for food deliveries. Whether on the run like I was, or stopping for coffee and the conversation, this cafe stayed calm. The lox spread was costly but quality, loaded with large hunks throughout. All bagels came toasted without us requesting, so specify if you prefer otherwise. The atmosphere is adorable, the staff kind and calm, and we can't wait to come back!

Recent standouts were April's "What's up Doc" carrot cake latte, & May's "Blossom-Sauce" cold brew, which had a house black currant syrup and an elderflower cold foam. It's a relatively small space in the primary area, but they typically offer extra seating in another area, I think the brewery area. So that's nice. And it's a very relaxed, friendly, pleasant environment. I highly recommend going if you have not. While I have not attended any, I know they host events such as Cars + Coffee!

You can tell it was freshly baked. We also got a habanero bacon cheddar bagel with spicy cheddar bacon ranch spread. I also got a French toast muffin, which tasted exactly like French toast! I did get the lucky charm March special, however, they ran out of cold brew coffee and it was being brewed overnight. I was able to substitute a regular coffee with an espresso shot. The coffee is OK, it tasted like iced tea mixed with coffee.

Coffee crawl spot #5!…read more Froth coffee was on the Hartford coffee crawl, and of course the coffee connoisseur had to make an appearance! I've been here once before, but didn't get anything out of the ordinary This time I got the blueberry crumble Iced latte and a chocolate chunk cookie. The ice latte,l had blueberry drizzle, cheesecake cold foam and cheesecake crumble pieces on top. It was so good, however, it was like drinking dessert in a cup. Definitely a dessert latte! Service was quick, and the girls made my coffee promptly

I'll be honest, the area isn't the besttt, but I've personally never had a problem, and if you're grabbing coffee it's usually in the morning anyway. It's inside The Assembly Room so after getting coffee I highly recommend checking out some of the other spots in there for lunch or a cocktail. Their specials coffee flavors amazing though. Highly recommend

I'd like to share a disappointing experience from my visit on 4/15 at around 5:45 PM. After placing…read moremy order, the customer behind me received their drinks almost immediately. The barista then came into the lobby, closed the door, and smiled directly at me, which made me think she was returning to prepare my drinks. Instead, she picked up both tickets, looked at them, and threw them away without starting my order. She then began cleaning the machines and eventually went to the back, leaving me waiting for about 20 minutes with no update. When she returned, I asked for a refund since I needed to leave. Rather than processing it, she repeatedly insisted on making the drink, even after I clearly said I preferred a refund. She told me she would process my refund. Two days later the charge went through. The interaction felt confusing and poorly handled. I completed their survey, submitted a comment via their website, and sent them a Yelp message. None which were responded to.

Well, the website said they were New York bagels(from my ancestral home, The Bronx), so I thought they might be exceptionally good. Nope. First the good--the decaf Cappuccino was exceptional. Good espresso base, nice foam. It couldn't have been better. Now, about the bagel. Not much variety; only plain or everything. They asked if I wanted it "warmed." I suspected that meant "in a microwave" so I said if it was fresh, I didn't need it warmed. When the bagel arrived, it was ice cold. Must have been kept in a fridge, which doesn't help the taste or texture of baked goods. Because of that, it did not seem particularly fresh. It was certainly not like the New York bagels of my childhood, unless you compare it to prepackaged commercial bagels (like Lenders). The staff was professional and helpful, and was glad to explain what was or wasn't available. Service was prompt. I'm sure I'll go back another time and try the beignets.

I went through the Drive Thru for a black iced coffee -- so I'm not sure if there is inside seating. Service was fine. My black iced coffee was below average in terms of taste. It had a a slight burnt flavor. It just wasn't pleasant to drink, although I did drink it. Aroma Joe's is at the back of the pack for me in terms of area drive thru iced coffee options. I can't speak to their other drinks or their food. 2 Stars

Decent donuts, nice local shop, good staff…read more Came to this location for another bakery, but hours were wrong so I had time to burn. Decided to hunt down a few different locations and this one popped up in the hunt. Location is a small space in a little plaza. Staff was friendly, recommended the strawberry donut. Price was 2 bucks a donut, so towards the higher side. Donut was fresh, dense with a heavy sugar shell and a strong artificial strawberry flavor. Not bad, but I prefer the lighter yeasty style donuts than the denser, sugar laden ones. As a local donut shop, it's good. The quality is there, but the donuts are not my style. They are good classic dunker style doughnuts though.

My BF got an iced coffee, which he thoroughly enjoyed. We grabbed an assortment of donuts to try, since it was our first time here. Their cinnamon rolls are huge, and it was nice and cinnamon-ey which I love. I also got the cruller to enjoy later. Now, to me, a cruller is nice and airy with a hint of crispness in the edges and a moist center. This was more like an old fashioned donut made into a twist, and it is probably one of the best old fashioned donut I have had ever! Nicely glazed, but that dough ... chef's kiss! We also grabbed their chocolate frosted and a Boston cream to share with our son. The employees are super nice and helpful. Only downside is they only serve coffee - iced or hot. I wish they had an espresso machine for lattes and cappuccinos. 4.5 stars!
