I ordered the frozen Bing Mocha, and a few pastries. Of the pastries I decided I'd try the cinnamon roll. It was perfect! Soft with some flake, it had the perfect amount of spread.

He even gave my toddler a sweet treat (which was a bonus...thanks again!) If I happen to be in the area again I will definitely stop back in.

I didn't get a chance to ask my coworker if she liked her order, but based on the crowd that was enjoying their morning, I can assume that they have many returning customers. Located near UD, I never stopped in till now, and I missed out on knowing that they had an outdoor seating area where you can watch the cars drive by or focus on your studies. I'd probably be trying to do that both. I will have to be back to see how the drinks and food are when I start my studies years after college. No time like the present.

A great chain of coffee shops around the Wilmington area!…read more I stopped in after lunch with a few of my colleagues on this North Market Street location. The shop appeared spacious and offered great seating options for those that are looking to settle down to work on their laptop on a bigger table near the entrance or the smaller two seaters scattered throughout. For the drinks, I ordered a matcha latte with soy milk. I wish the worker had brought up that it was extra for the soy as I paid over $5 for the smaller size! Regardless, it was a good drink with good matcha flavor, paired with the soy milk. My coworker got the Cubano which is something I haven't seen anywhere before! He had it down in Cuba where it is an espresso mixed with an equal parts of a sweetener. You can get both your caffeine and sugar rush all in one go. I will probably be back some time soon just to try that.

The one thing I didn't know until recently was how incredible their pastries and sweets are.

The little shop has such a fun upbeat vibe and I will be coming back many more times!

The space is very clean and there are tons of indoor and outdoor seating arrangements. The bar was fairly basic and not as pricey as I expected given the food prices. Each vendor we went to across our group was fairly slow, but they did cook to order. Individual reviews: Al forno: people in our group ordered the spinach and ricotta pasta, carbonara and a four cheese pizza. The four cheese pizza was incredibly cheesy, but had an over-abundance of Gorgonzola/blue cheese that overwhelmed the pizza. The addition of hot sauce from another vendor made it tolerable. The pasta dishes were delicious! I wish they had offered banana peppers and a better variety of pizza toppings. Mexican vendor: I had their chicken Caesar salad and it was fantastic! The chicken was tender and moist, and the Caesar dressing tasted homemade and the salad was fresh. Espresso: the crepes were overcooked and tough to eat, but the coffee was fantastic

They should have called it the perfect cup and grill cafe. Because everything that came off the grill was really delicious. Eggs over easy, scrapple and some fantastic specialty rye toast. Will return many more times.

This may be the headquarters of Brandywine Coffee Roasters (part of the same business as Brew HaHa…read morecoffee) but they do not sell a wide range of Brandywine Coffee and the coffee that they serve in the cafe is under the label BrewHaHa. The coffee was fine, staff was friendly, and the space was very comfortable with plenty of seating and tables. As a roaster, Brandywine is amazing. I have ordered their beans many times for me pretty much all home brewing methods (hario, kalita, immersion, batch, and espresso). I am always impressed by the quality of their coffee, their wide range of offerings, and their artwork. But, if you are hoping to visit one of the best roasters in the country and try a variety of different coffees, this is not the place for you. No pour overs, and the espresso and drip coffee were only so-so. Beats Starbucks, Dunkin, and a lot of other coffee shops, but not a worthwhile detour/destination. The 4 stars is for the cafe experience. As a roaster, Brandywine is undoubtedly 5/5!

Coffee addic...I mean aficionados seek out the purest form of caffeine delivery in the spectrum of taste. Spending lots of money on single origin coffee, fancy grinders, and the like is not to get any enhanced caffeine high but it is to unlock discernible flavor profiles. Ask anyone who is familiar with single origin coffee and they probably could taste test a blind pour over and tell which region of Earth from which the fruit originates. Anyway, that aside, where is there to go with coffee purchasing beyond taste? Well, that's where the importance of who exactly is roasting and selling comes into play. Brandywine Coffee Roasters is a perfect example of blending art and taste. The art-part is standout here. I haven't really felt the need to save a coffee bag before and consider hanging on a wall, but it's easy to see why one might want to with the artwork of Todd Purse (local Delaware artist and resident screenprinter). I did some digging and Brandywine roasters actually started as BrewHaHa! and others in the 90s. It and has been around in its current form since 2015. I really enjoyed the bags; they apparently are all done in-house in a printing shop and are hand-printed. Besides the artwork, each bag has traceable detailed information about the coffee within and a wax seal. You can see how cool the artwork is; I picked up a few bags for Halloween. The coffee itself was on par with any other high quality small roaster; the roast is light to medium with a good smooth flavor profile that was mildly fruity but more subtle that I was expecting given the artwork (maybe next time I shouldn't look at horror movie inspired knife while tasting). Highly recommended, especially if you have a coffee lover and need a thoughtful gift.

This is a lovely coffee house right off Baltimore Pike that has a variety of delicious drinks,…read morepastries, and a decent amount of seating. The vibe is light and airy, and the service is always friendly. I especially appreciate their rotating drink specials and options for non-coffee drinks, like a matcha. Also shoutout to the scones from OsoSweet bakery across Baltimore Pike--they go so well with a coffee and are huge and tasty. Chadds Ford Coffee House is what a chain like Starbucks aspires to be: local, cozy, and artisanal. Good music playing loud enough that you can hear it, but not so loud that you can't have a good conversation. There is wifi and a good amount of seating, including stools for solo diners who might want to open a laptop and send a few emails while eating the aforementioned giant scone. It's also easy to get takeout service, but I'd say it's worth spending a few minutes here to really savor your food and drink.

Ended up at Chadds Ford Coffee House on a day where a trip to a normal stop of mine was denied…read morebecause of the location I frequent being closed. Which wasn't necessarily a bad thing. I love to switch it up and try new places, and this was no exception, and I did get to enjoy not only a good macchiato, but also a lovely, light and fluffy croissant. However, based on the vibe when I walked inside, I had expected a step above from what I actually experienced. This is NOT to say that anything is wrong with this place; it is cute, the staff is extremely nice, and their coffee is good, just good. But there is nothing here that takes it up a notch to make them anything memorable or more than just another coffee stop on the road of many potential head turning exquisite coffee paradises. I was very excited when I asked about the macchiato, as they said they make them the traditional "correct" way, which is what I prefer. A very small, very potent and delicious amount of espresso, and I usually enjoy mine con panna which they were happy to oblige. While the espresso was pulled well and the drink was delicious, it did taste as if their roaster went just a bit too far, or they extracted just a bit too much. Not a big deal. However, at a place making this correctly, I would expect a damn good macchiato. The croissant was also tasty; buttery and flaky, and I am not sure if it was baked on site, but I feel like if it wasn't, they should consider doing just that, because that is what could elevate this to that next level and really make it a destination! All in all I was pleased with what I got and the price was reasonable for what we ordered. If I am in the area I will likely be returning to my favorite spot nearby that I frequent with reverence, and that is no fault of Chadds Ford Coffee House. But when coffee is needed and I'm around, if I can't go to where I normally would, this would be at the top of my list! Give them a shot if you travel route 1 through the area often and you may find you're new spot!
