I was pleasantly surprised with this spot The chocolate croissant was really good- love that it was chocolate chip instead of the traditional way. My girlfriend got a bagel sandwich and liked it a lot. The coffee was really good and quick. Didn't need its own sweetener which was nice We also vlogged it- Hailey and Kiki on YouTube :) read more

Great cafe right on a small but mighty Main Street! We were staying not far away at all for a wedding and came here the morning before for a late breakfast. There is little to not love here: -Big tables & cozy vibes. -Great coffee. I got an oat milk latte but they had an entire seasonal menu. -Delicious food! I ordered an omelette from the specials board and it was just what I needed, huge portion and so tasty. What else could you ever want? You order at the counter and pick up your food there as well. The women behind the counter were kind and quick and served up a delicious breakfast. If I was local, I know I would be here very often. read more

Good, fresh, homemade food. Relaxed space to sit and eat. Order ahead if you are in a rush.

This restaurant is such a delight to have in our community. The staff is equally as delightful. Caroline is a favorite, serving up fun, good conversation, and a song. read more

Outstanding coffee! Servers were friendly and helpful. Nice location with on street parking. Would definitely return.

I love this little cafe. Discovered it a couple weeks ago while out leaf peeping and have visited twice since then. The food is delicious. The coffee so, so good. Prices are fair and the cafe is cozy. Last week I brought my laptop and got a little work done while also chatting with a couple of local ladies. read more

Coffee was great and the Strawberry Matcha pancakes are excellent. Always friendly service..

While this was obviously a well trafficked community gathering place, the food did not live up to the hype of the Maine Life tv segment in which it was profiled. read more

Friendly place in a Maine village. Quaint feel to it with wood floors and huge window in the front looking out on Main St. Food and service were solid if Unspectacular. We both had the omelet with goat cheese, onions and peppers. It was a good, filling breakfast. read more

Cafe Nomad - the interior of a cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Norway, Maine

The best local spot for breakfast, lunch, and all of your beverage desires. I've enjoyed visiting Nomad since I was in high school-- It always brings back great memories and there is always a familiar face to say hi to when in the cafe. The sandwiches are delicious, baked goods top notch, and even just a bagel with cream cheese hits the spot every time. There is a true sense of community at Cafe Nomad and a visit here is always sure to brighten your day. read more

Cafe Nomad - Small Snickerdoodle latte, homemade brownie, sweet girl. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Norway, Maine

Sweet little coffee shop right in the heart of Norway. I tagged along with my husband on a business trip of his to the area and stopped here for a coffee & afternoon work session. The place wasn't packed, but there was a great amount of people coming in and out; that will definitely show you how the community feels about a business! I sat at a larger table near their book wall. There were plenty of outlets nearby, the music wasn't too loud, and the coffee itself (a honey lavender latte) was pretty dang tasty. Bathroom was clean, ambiance was clean & friendly, and the folks working were kind. What more could you ask for? read more

Wonderful menu choices, great coffee and a welcoming atmosphere. A great spot for breakfast treats.

I've been here a couple of times now, they have great food options for both adults and kids. The service was great, very nice staff. Setting is relaxing, lots of people working on their computers, but also people just hanging out to chat. The coffee is really good! Highly recommend read more

Got a local recommendation for this spot, and it did NOT disappoint! Apple butter latte was delicious. Caprese sandwich was amazing, and I really appreciated the staff being willing to pack it in a way that allowed me to eat it later in the day--sauce and toppings on the side. read more

We were pleasantly surprised with Cafe Nomad! Ordered the old speck sandwich and also the crooked River -- both delightful for breakfast and lunch. We also enjoyed a smoothie. The prices were high, but I don't fault them for that. There was a lovely ambiance and the staff were quite friendly and accommodating. Definitely a must if you're visiting Norway! read more

Cafe Nomad - Crooked River breakfast sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Norway, Maine

Cute little cafe. It's a "hodge-podge" type store, or very "local," as people say. A little overpriced, in my opinion. We ordered a DELICIOUS ginger/lemon iced tea of some sort. Not too sweet! Reallllly yummy. I also ordered one of their "specialty" drinks, which was WAY too sweet, and they made it hot instead of cold like I ordered. No biggie, but not the best on a hot and humid day. Not bad! Thanks! read more

Comfy local place with morning bites and hot coffee drinks! Breakfast sandwiches and local artworks

Came into the cafe today and had the best sandwich ever (Nomad Burger with ilItalian bread). Love the vegetarian and vegan options! I also accompanied my sandwich with a peach spritzer (also the best). Definitely would recommend stoping by. Cafe Nomad is such a nice cafe! read more

Cafe Nomad - Nomad Burger with Italian bread, chefs kiss It was so good I could only get a picture of my empty plate. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Norway, Maine

Cold day. Came in for a hot coffee. They had a gluten-free muffin! Delicious Very friendly staff. Cool atmosphere.

cafe Nomad is my daughter and my favorite place to go on our mommy and daughter dates. I have special diet restrictions and this is one of the few places that I feel safe to eat out at. they have Gluten free and dairy free alternatives for me, and they take my allergies to them seriously. my daughter loves one of their breakfast sandwiches that has egg and Avacado, and we both love their lavender Earl grey iced tea. the vibe or ambience of the place celebrates local artists and is like a cool chillax hip area with books to read and art to look at, I've even gone her for lunch meetings with a local organization I volunteer with - it can get busy sometimes but it's always worth it. read more

Nomad is a great place to relax. I'm not a coffee drinker, so I can't speak to that whole section of the menu, but they do great breakfast sandwiches and lunch. I highly recommend their bean version of a veggie burger. It's delicious! Also, Nomad supports the community, which I love. They used to even have an open mic night that I heard was set up and run by high school students. I was really sad to see that go. It was a nice thing for kids around here to do, which we desperately need in this area. In addition, local artists' work is always on the walls for display. The atmosphere is great too. Whether you just want a cup of coffee or plan to stay and study/work for hours, it's a cozy place to hang out. There are even books and board games in the downstairs part. Lots of big tables and unique, mismatched furniture. Good natural lighting. Comfy couches. Overall, Nomad is a nice addition to the Norway area, and I'm glad to see them doing well! I hope it stays that way. read more

Plenty of seating in this sweet downtown spot in Norway! I am a huge fan and the food is super tasty as well. They greet you and are very clean here. read more

Ordered the Nomad Burger and Old Speck ( chicken salad) and sat outside. Both sandwiches very good. The town is charming, and today is hosting an historic walking tour. Would come back again and try the breakfast options. read more

Good food and drinks and a nice ambiance! Prices are also great on the food in comparison to some other cafes. Baristas are always nice as well. read more

This is the best place I have ever eaten at, I go there every morning. Grace was the best server I have ever been with. She made sure I had everything I needed and whenever I asked her to do something she did it with a smile on her face and a brilliant attitude. I felt like I was at home and just the ambiance of the place was just great. I am so happy this place is here and so convenient. read more

Amazing staff, food and environment. Thanks for anchoring downtown Norway. We love it.

Great lunch/breakfast spot! Eclectic ambiance. Yummy, interesting sandwiches and drinks. Wish it were open on Mondays.

Inventive selection of sandwiches and omelets. Excellent lattes. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. The staff are unfailingly nice. When I'm in the area I always go here and if I lived here I'd be a regular. read more

This is my 2nd time here. The first I got an ice coffee. It was a bit strong but good. This time I came for lunch. It's a Friday at noon and the place is hopping. I ordered a turkey sandwich & fresh brewed ice tea. Both were excellent. The sandwich had a nice pesto mayo on it. read more

Excellent coffee drinks, tea and breakfast options. I was very happy with the breakfast we had here. The service was very friendly and timely. Our food and drinks were delicious and I loved the local art they had displayed. Don't hesitate to stop in this great shop. read more

Favorite must go to place for every visit to the area! Great menu and people in charming downtown Norway.

Pretentious and pandering. This place is a cliche plain and simple. Overpriced food that makes you feel important and special. If you think paying more for something makes it, or you, better than this is for you. Great tourist trap though! read more

I absolutely fell in love with this little café here in Maine last week when my husband & I came to visit the state for our anniversary. Excellent food & coffee, great & friendly service, chill vibes. I would visit this part of Maine again just to be able to come to Cafe Nomad. read more

Beautiful cafe w/ delicious, quality food & coffee and friendly staff to boot! I was in the area for work, having an awful day (roads closed, flat tire, etc) and was in desperate need of coffee- like real coffee. Sorry folks but I don't do gas station "coffee". Thanks to Yelp I found this gem! The staff was very friendly- the girl at the register took the time to explain what options they had for breakfast sandwiches. I got the special- egg on multi-grain with cheese, arugula and avocado mayo and a soy latte, and let me tell you- IT WAS WORTH EVERY PRETTY PENNY! Not that it was even expensive- I think my bill was 10 bucks! I loved the ambiance and could have stayed there all day. As others have mentioned there is a cute area with a couch, comfy chairs and books. Also, there is a river that runs by the cafe which you can see from some of the tables in the back. If I was local I would be here all the time! The downtown was adorable and perfect for a stroll on a nice, sunny day. They also had chairs if you wanted to sit outside. One more minor detail- they only had organic Heinz ketchup and it was like a tomato bursting in my mouth- soooooo flavorful! I am a Heniz devotee, but have never had the organic! All in all, the best part of my day and I would highly recommend stopping here! read more

What a perfect gem tucked away on a Main Street that I didn't even know existed! Lively, welcoming atmosphere. Savory, local food. Café Nomad in Norway lives up to every delicious review that I had heard from friends and coworkers previously. OctoberFEAST, a Halloween themed dinner to benefit Maurer Meals (http://www.maurermeals.com/) was so much fun! My meal started with butternut squash and kale soup garnished with spice-roasted pumpkin seeds. That was quickly followed by 'Raspoutine' (bison poutine!) and a side of dressed local greens. For dessert, homemade apple crisp with french vanilla ice cream....OMG. I had gone to the event alone, but was invited to join a local family of regulars as I waited for my table. We spent the evening talking about the revitalized Main Street in Norway, their neighbor's recent return from the Peace Corps in Africa, and then learned what a small world it actually is -- my uncle was their son's math teacher! We were later joined by a local journalist who was also planning to dine alone, but I learned quickly that that may be impossible to do at Nomad! My only wish would be for Café Nomad to be located on the street where I live, so that my every breakfast, lunch and dinner whim could be close at hand! I highly recommend it and will be headed back as soon as I can. **full disclosure** I was invited to the event by a college classmate who is a part of the Cafe Nomad family and helped organize the event. The fundraiser itself was to benefit Maurer Meals, a scholarship fund in memory of Justin Maurer, a high school classmate. This in no way affected my review, I was truly impressed by the offerings of Cafe Nomad. read more

Cafe Nomad - OctoberFEAST = Raspoutine, butternut kale soup & a harvest moon! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Norway, Maine

Perfect stop downtown for great food and excellent service. Not "fast food" but FANTASTIC FOOD!

I have been enjoying Café Nomad for quite some time now. The staff is really wonderful, very funny and entertaining. The art from local students and artists hanging on the walls gives your eyes something to check out while you wait for your tasty food or drink order. Today, I am having my regular morning selection: Breakfast sandwich on GF bread, with veggie sausage It. Is. Perfect. The vanilla soy latte I always get is spot on, every time. I have been in during every part if their opening hours (ok, I will admit, I may be a little addicted)... and it is always busy but you never have to wait long. The space is great to go in solo, with a few friends or even a bigger group. Overall, this gem is a place you must experience when passing through the historical town of Norway. Or even if you aren't passing through, make a detour and stop in. It's a great business, owned and operated by really wonderful people. read more

Awesome little cafe with plenty of room to relax and eat. I love the food and the prices are fair, and the service is terrific. :)

I made a catering order for 20+ people and cafe nomad was extremely accommodating. They happily made a beautiful assortment of breakfast options for my group. They even created a separate gluten free and dairy free sandwich for one person with an allergy. Not only were they very kind, but their food was delicious! The food kept my group fueled for a busy day. I highly recommend the pancakes! read more
