I love a…read morelatte and saw a picture of their latte flight, so I'd marked it on my maps to check out when I was in the area. A year or so later, I have found myself here in Lincoln and decided to give it a try. I didn't have high hopes. Reality rarely lives up to the expectations created by social media, but I decided to give it a shot. And thank God I did. There's a lot to unpack here. First- the latte flight. Amazing. Beautiful presentation, excellently balanced flavors, and just enough novelty to be memorable without being kitschy (how many latte flights have you come across?) My only suggestion is to split with a friend, unless you're used to a lot of milk and caffeine. I had a hard time finishing them all and four shots is a lot for me- I'm about to buzz right out of my seat! Second- the service. I sat here for a while and watched the staff. They couldn't have been better. I was welcomed when I approached, as was every other person who came in during the time I was there, even down to the vendors, and even when customers came in large waves that could have easily overwhelmed them. They were personable, friendly, and genuinely seemed to take pride in offering a good product. Which leads me to my third observation... While I was here, a gentleman came in who I now believe to have been the owner. If so, sir- I'd like to commend you on your management style. I watched how you spoke to the staff and while it was only a few moments, you showed respect, thoughtfulness, and kindness. My first job was in food service nearly 30 years ago and to this day, I still remember my manager. He led with those same qualities. Overall, great product. I live a couple hours away, and would make a point of stopping here on a day trip. Thanks for a lovely start to my morning!

Tucked right next to a brewery, it's got that perfect mix of cozy NH charm and local buzz. The maple latte (iced is perfect on the warmer fall days) is an absolute standout--smooth, sweet, and just maple enough to taste like fall in a cup. And if you want to level it up? Their chai latte with maple is the move--comforting, spiced, and downright addictive. I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed both of these. It's the kind of place that makes you feel like you've found your new go-to spot, whether you're here for caffeine, a quick chat with the barista (Nikolai), or just a little treat-yourself moment. Nikolai is awesome and will chat you up. He made a perfect drink for a beautiful fall day in late September! Support this small business.

We were a few minutes before close, and they informed us we could place an order, just no hot food. We were understanding, and were finishing our order for a couple of ice creams and were just about to pay. The manager came out and told his staff to accept no more orders, including the one that was currently in process. He would not let us finish our order, even with encouragement from his employees. We left and went elsewhere for food. Definitely will not be returning to this Dairy Queen anytime soon. The customer service is below acceptable. Go to the one in Glen a few minutes up the road instead!

We've been getting ice cream almost every day and trying to get out ice cream from locally owned ice cream shops. Here in Conway we had been going to Trails End Ice Cream which serves up locally made ice cream with HUGE portions. On this particular day we had stopped at a local bakery to get some cupcakes and since Ben and Jerry's was located next door, we decided we would just get ice cream there. We lined up all the kids to place their orders but were shocked when they pulled out one micro cup and put the smallest scoop of ice cream in it that I had ever seen. On top that they wanted to charge over $6 for that mini scoop. We paid for the one scoop and quickly left and made the five minute drive to Trails End Ice Cream where the super mega scoop is only $4 and a double scoop (which is over a pint of ice cream) is only $6. I'm not complaining about the quality of the ice cream at Ben and Jerry's, but the super small portions are way overpriced, particularly when a much better alternative (Trails End Ice Cream) is only five minutes away. Save your money and avoid this particular Ben and Jerry's and drive down to Trails End Ice Cream and get freshly made local ice cream at reasonable prices.
