    I ate here at the recommendation of Guess Where trips. Parking is a bit of a tricky wicket, it's close to the green and I can imagine some patient driving around is required in the summer. It is next to a decent lot, but is shared with other businesses. Seating at the cafe itself includes downstairs, upstairs, and outside so definitely more room. There is a customer restroom and a heavy emphasis on recycling. My peanut butter crepes were so delicious - they definitely had a sweetness without being overwhelming, or the peanut butter and banana being too heavy or sticky. High marks on balance! The feel is like a bunker, the building made of metal but there are so many handmade signs it feels brighter. They also have handheld pastries, all look delicious. The chocolate crepe made a great snack for the next leg of my journey.

    This was a great find on our way to Rhode Island. Tucked in Guilford,CT, this cafe is a perfect spot to satisfy your caffeine needs, with your typical coffees and teas, but also a variety of specialty drinks - with lots of fall favorites like Pumpkin Chai and Autumn Frost Latte. We had a brunch/lunch get together - BLTA, the classic but with avocado, a turkey crepe with an egg on top and a wild mushroom tartine. Food was fresh and extremely tasty. The menu has a lot of choices. And there are sweet treats as well. Everyone was pleased. The cafe has outdoor seating. There are a few tables by the counter, but there is an upstairs eating area with several tables. Staff was extremely polite and friendly. Pricing was a bit expensive in my opinion - with sandwiches around $16 and up. Portion size, however, was definitely adequate. So if you are in the area, looking for a morning beverage, perhaps some tasty pastries, breakfast or brunch, check out Belle Vie Cafe!

    I've been dreaming of this lunch visit at Belle Vie Cafe from a few weeks ago. I can't wait to go back. We visited on a Saturday morning, surprising not too busy or we missed the brunch rush. The building of the cafe that is also shared with a couple other businesses is so unique. It looks like an airplane hanger for a small plane that's been completely renovated. There is a lot of patio seating and there is a second floor with an additional dining area that over looks the cafe. There were so many options for breakfast, lunch, baked goodies and drinks. The treats and breads are all baked in-house. Oh, so fresh and gluten-free options too. I opted for the Mushroom and Asparagus Crepe which I modified to be made without nuts. The crepe was prefect and flavors blend amazing together. For to drink, I got the Wicked Matcha which was an iced matcha latte with blueberry cold foam. My mom who was with me got the Green Goddess Panini that was fresh focaccia with spicy zucchini, pistachio ricotta and baby spinach. She said it was so good and loved the ricotta. It wasn't too spicy either since she can't do too much spice. She also got the Almond Joy Latte which she loved. I really wished we had grabbed some of their baked goodies like cookies, brownies, croissants, and etc to take home. I was very stuffed after lunch though and I took half of my crepe home.

    Sitting at the tables on the patio, we enjoyed our cool beverages, cold brew ice coffee and iced matcha tea. Our crepes arrived and was not disappointed!

    Really sweet cozy café here in Guilford. The staff was so friendly, the gentleman back behind the counter helped me decide on this amazing chicken avocado Panini. So warm and crispy it's the perfect Panini! Vibes were great. Everyone was in a really good mood. The music was awesome. Jams like john Mayer. The inside is a cool garage type vibe but it's very clean. They also had a nice patio space out front, which was a very popular location as it was full. And I didn't venture upstairs, but they had more seating upstairs as well. I'll definitely be going back !

    This is their sad $20 Chicken and Avocado Panini.  The panini from Panera is 100x better.

    On top of the horrible quality of food. The customer service was trash. No one greeted me when I came in and I didn't get a friendly vibe at all.

    Croque Monsieur with an egg.

    This is a hard review to write because on the one hand I really enjoyed my visit but on the other hand there were lots of little things that weren't quite right. The coffee was so hot I couldn't even start drinking it for 20 minutes. The bread on the Croque Monsieur was way too thick. After spending way too long explaining I wanted a fried egg with a runny yolk that wasn't cooked on both sides I still got a flat egg very cooked on both sides with zero yolk. On a Croque Monsieur that kind of egg is a huge disappointment. The salad dressing was delicious but the salad was *drowning* in it. This place has a lovely menu, keto and gluten-free stuff (!!) and the vibe is fabulous, with very personable staff, but the food (at least the food I tried) could use some work. I also tipped too much to bus my own table and will remember that next time. It's restaurant food prices without the restaurant service. I'll for sure be back to try something else though.

    Gluten-free BLTA Sandwich
    Alicia N.

    What a wonderful find in Guilford! Right by the center of town. Belle Vie is a cute cafe that offers gluten free , paleo, keto options. Healthy clean eating . Many of the options served are house made! Everything is made fresh and made with love! The owner really does a wonderful job providing great service and food. When I went I was excited to have some baked goods , to have a gluten-free crepe and a delicious gluten-free BLT! My friend and I shared a few dishes. Ofcourse we couldn't finish everything but we truly enjoyed every minute of it. The BLT was gluten-free but you couldn't even tell. It had bacon, avocado, tomatoes! It was perfect! The baked goods and crepe aren't overly sweet. The owner is wonderful, friendly and wants to make sure her customers are happy! The cafe has tables outside so it's perfect to grab lunch or a cup a coffee or her Signature Latte which is delicious and sit and grab a book! You won't be disappointed! And you'll leave happy!

    Great spot for a quick lunch! They have WiFi so you're able to work from the cafe if you need to like me, but wish they had more outlets. It was very loud and pretty busy for a late Friday afternoon and was hard to concentrate on work - definitely not the kind of quiet cafe to work from. I ordered the Turkey Panini which was good but nothing special. My iced mocha hit the spot and definitely want to try some of their other menu items. It was perfect for a quick, last minute stop for lunch and WiFi!

    Ham Egg & Cheese Crepe
    Allison C.

    My fiancé and I had a great little breakfast at Belle Vie Cafe! The ham, egg, and cheese croissant was delicious, and the staff was friendly. It has a unique, more industrial vibe there while still being welcoming. I would come back again!

    Spinach and goat cheese Turnover

    It's always fun to visit this cafe and enjoy the new items and some old favorites from the menu. Happy to try the new Barbie latte !! I loved it !! Light flavored and not overly sweet with the cherry blossom foam! I enjoyed my omelette with spinach, ham and peppers that came with the refreshing salad and the gluten free bread. The Apple galette is my favorite right now and perfect for this transition to fall. The chocolate zucchini and lemon blueberry bread are keto but truly you can't tell because they are perfect!! Service was awesome and the ambiance it's always fun !!

    Alex P. T.

    A new favorite here! Be sure to try the Avocado Toast with roasted butternut squash! Holy smokes! So good! The pastries are also top notch! (the apple galette- yum!!!) Originally from Romania, the owner Alexandra graduated from the French Culinary Institute in Manhattan and worked in the restaurant business for over 11 years. In 2019, she decided to start a cottage food business, baking from home. Her dream was alway to have a cafe with delicious coffee, pastries and healthy seasonal food and she did it! Must try on her menu: Avocado Toast with butternut squash Prosciutto and Ricotta Tartine Croque Monsieur with egg Croffle (Croissant Waffle) with Banana, Dulce de Leche and Almonds Shakshuka - two sunny eggs with goat cheese, tomato and pepper sauce with focaccia bread Apple Caramel Crepes Keto bagel with Lox Holidays hours are: New Years Eve 8-2 New Years Day Closed Definitely check out Belle Vie Cafe- the plates are stunning and beyond delicious!

    Cute healthy cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. My friends and I came here for breakfast. I got a large iced chai tea and the breakfast sandwich which was yummy. Good location too.

    Welcome!
