    Small indoor seating but somehow just enough!
    Aliyah Y.

    As I am scouring Southern Maine for unique coffee shop experiences, my mother insisted we stop in to try this cozy, unsuspecting place in a shopping plaza I had been to a dozen times. I never noticed this secret tasty haven tucked in the corner of what I always called the Goodwill plaza amongst the busy Gorham hustle and bustle. Upon entering I was pleased to find traditionally well dressed baristas and bakers hard at work to produce a product you could tell they were proud of. I even caught a glimpse of a quick hug shared amongst the staff- letting me know that this establishment was serving just as much love as they were tasty treats. Now me? I tend to go for darker areas, low dim lighting. But this naturally lit space still declared a cozy aura- with the browns, reds, blacks, and subtle pops of color. My mother and I chose to sit outside to enjoy the remnants of the summer weather- where we were teased by friendly bumble bees and delighted by passing puppies and their owners. And of course- who doesn't love a lovingly made latte'! All in all, great place to visit if you're ever shopping in the Gorham plaza- or looking for a cozy place to have a good conversation. -A

    Your Lemon Danish should be called "The Lemon Volcano"! Absolutely delicious with a Nitro-Coffee, total "Yumfactorlevel10"

    Baked goods in case and lovely atmosphere

    Small bakery with many treat options. The staff was attentive and the setting was quiet.

    What a great new place in Gorham. Wish they were open a little bit earlier, but always worth a visit after I get to work to stop by and pick up a few treats for the office, and of course coffee. These coffee by design, which I already love. And all of the bakery treats, are out of this world. They are also huge! So plan to share. Love the decor and fun seating areas for a group or alone. Worth a visit. Can't wait to enjoy the summer and another visit at Sullivan.

    On this cold, rainy fall day there's no better place to be sitting than in this wonderfully warm and friendly coffee shop. They are now celebrating their two year anniversary and they are "bringing bread back!" I'm looking forward to trying some of their delicious homemade breads. They have a good selection of sandwiches for lunch and salads and their espresso is tops. The owner carefully chose a good espresso machine and she uses CBD coffee (Coffee By Design) that is freshly roasted and ground. It is smooth and rich with a wonderful crema on top. I also tried their cheesecake brownie, which is very rich and delicious... and I'll have to save some for later. If you're in the area stop on by. There is patio outdoor seating to enjoy on more pleasant days.

    I've went here a few times to get the soup which is fresh and good! But won't be going back no more they now give a small take out container in place of a big ceramic bowl of soup. No spoon no napkin nothing, get your own napkin and spoon same price for big ! Shame on them .

    Wonderful atmosphere, coffee and baked goods. Staff are exceptional. Food is a bit overpriced for what you get.

Best choice of the day by far and we have discovered a new favorite spot. By the name you can tell they are a cafe but are also an apothecary will be our definite go to for tea blends now. Plenty of parking available which is great and you will first notice it has rustic vibes from the outside. Inside is a little less rustic but still has the perfect feel/vibes. Cozy and inviting with lots of art on the walls. They have a number of bar stools, a few tables then a couple comfy couches to enjoy your food/drinks. Even with the snowy weather they were busy but we snagged a spot on one of the couches. I got their normal latte and my wife got their Maple Weekend special Spiced Maple Latte. Both were phenomenal and they use Milkweed Coffee Roasters. Which they are a spot that uses and supports local and makes a lot of their own things as well. Food wise we each got one of their sausage egg and cheese sandwiches on an English muffin. Again even the sausage was locally made and you could tell the English muffin was freshly made. We got them with goat cheese and pesto and they were the perfect breakfast sandwich, so much flavor! These would be absolute must try and in combination with their drinks are worth visiting for! I can't wait to return and get another sandwich and/or try even more food! Such a unique and welcoming cafe that also offers all your apothecary needs!

Today, we indulged in blueberry muffins and fruit parfaits (both of which the kids devoured and I personally enjoyed as well), a ham and cheddar breakfast crepe (absolutely amazing!!!), and avocado toast (my wife, who has celiac, was quite disappointed in aside from the onions) for food. To drink, my kids were able to get juice boxes (apple and fruit punch). I got the iced dulce de leche latte, which was pretty good though had a little bit of a different flavor that took some getting used to. My wife got the Maine maple latte, which she said was really good. Being dedicated gluten free, they definitely have some challenges, especially with baked goods, that most places don't have to deal with, so I'm willing to cut some slack here. All in all, there's definitely some gems here but other things could use a little work. We'll definitely go back but maybe not our first choice to go out of the way for.

Maybe it was the coffee, maybe it was the addition of sugar free vanilla, but I didn't drink it. The ceilings are extremely high. They most definitely should have some noise-dampening panels or something to make it a bit quieter in there. There was a family there when I went that was treating this small coffee shop as a daycare, which made my experience even more disappointing. The screams were echoing throughout the cafe, and I ended up sitting outside for peace and fresh air. The outside seating area is nice. Overall, not a great first experience for me, but maybe their food is better than the coffee?

Many plants were around was an added plus too. Due to showing up so early, especially on Easter meant no one else was there but I assume it turns into a very popular spot at certain times/days. They have many different games available to play as well. As well as host different events that you can check their socials or website to see whole months worth of events. They have a good variety of food and drink offerings as well to help power you through your gaming session or as a grab and go option too. I grabbed an iced vanilla latte while my wife got the lavender iced latte. For some small bites I grabbed a chocolate chip scone and my wife got an everything sour cream scone. The staff asked if we wanted them warmed up with butter which was a great option! A perfect bite to pair with our drinks. Neither my wife or I are really much of gamers in the sense of tabletop games. If you are a fan of that style of games or want to dip your feet in this would be the ideal spot for that. They also had puzzles and board games available for sale as well as puzzle and book exchange too. Check this place out!
