Break'n Bread Sandwich Shoppe delivered in every way. When you walk in the front door you see the chalkboard menus, pastries lined like trophies, the warm, hometown vibe made us feel instantly welcome. Sarah, the owner's cousin, greeted us like family and clearly proud of what is being built here! I ordered The Godfather, "a sandwich you can't refuse". Perfectly stacked, rich with flavor, and balanced like it was crafted by a culinary consigliere. My wife's Car's Caprese was fresh and vibrant, while our friend's Chicken Parm vanished before my eyes as it was unwrapped. In a world full of forgettable chains, this place stands as proof that passion still matters. Break'n Bread isn't just a shop, it's a reminder of what real food and real people can create together.

On our way out from the casino and wanted a good coffee. So glad we stopped here…read more I used to work as a barista during college, and I was so impressed by whatever they put in their mocha. It isn't just a goopy chocolate cause but had some real fudge bits in there. My boyfriend got an iced coffee and mixed in their self-serve whipped cream (so freaking cool!) which was delicious. My only complaint would be that there was one girl working the counter and a long line, so it took her a while to take orders and serve customers. A real gem for Norwich though and I wish them for the best.

The employees are always super friendly and ready to answer any questions you have. I love that they have both an inside area with seating, and an outside window for orders and pickups. The smoothies are always a 10/10. In the fall, I get the Harvest Cobbler (one of their seasonal drinks), but during the rest of the year I love the Blueberry Oat with peaches added in and the Mango Refresher. My mom LOVES the Chocolate PB&B because it tastes just like a Reese's peanut butter cup. Their coffee is also delicious, and they have an abundance of flavored syrups to choose from. I love getting their cookie butter syrup, but their salted caramel, toasted almond mocha, and cherry syrups sound really good too. They also offer two sugar free syrup options, vanilla and caramel. I love that as a small business themselves, they support and use products from other local small businesses. I'm so happy Norwich has an actual smoothie spot, and not just another MLM-backed healthy/nutritional "smoothie" place. You won't be disappointed if you come here!

The entire setup feels careless and amateurish, from the chaotic workflow to the lack of basic crowd and traffic control. The parking situation is not just inconvenient--it's unsafe. With no barriers, no clear flow, and vehicles cutting through pedestrian areas, it's shocking that no serious incident has occurred yet. Operational standards are poor. Sanitation practices are questionable, including uncovered ice being transported from outdoor areas after being placed on the ground. That alone should concern anyone paying premium prices. The drinks themselves are little more than sugar delivery systems with a token splash of espresso. Flavor is buried under syrups and sweeteners, masking what appears to be low-quality coffee. Nothing here feels original; it's a collection of copied concepts executed badly. Service is slow, the product is inconsistent, and the pricing is unjustifiable. This isn't a serious coffee shop--it's a novelty stand selling sugar and spectacle at inflated prices. Better coffee, faster service, and safer conditions can be found almost anywhere else, for far less money.

I had a medium to dark roast that was out of this world from Guatemala. The Barista was so helpful in helping me select the perfect blend after I explained what I like in coffee. The blueberry and chocolate chip scones where delicious and they had other bakery items such as muffins and breads. They put them on a grill when we asked if the scone could be heated so good. The icing on the cake or should I say scone was Brittany singing and Gabe playing his acoustic guitar. They were so talented and humble. Just the coffee alone was an amazing treat! I am such a coffee snob and there coffee is by far the best I have had in CT what a wonderful treasure. A great way to spend Sunday Funday!

I believe everything is made fresh at this location and you can taste it. Their donuts are amazing as well. They are always offering specialty donuts like a lucky charm, Oreo, or holiday inspired offerings. Their bagels are soft, flavorful, and big. You're not getting a tiny grocery store bagel here. I have to compliment the management because the ladies working here are always kind, smiling, and fast working. They train their staff right! There is plenty of seating which seems to be an underutilized part of many coffee shops since 2020. The music isn't too loud and you'll be treated with the wonderful aroma of baked goods and coffee the moment the door opens and you enter
