    a bacon and egg sandwich in a paper bag

    Have only tried the breakfast sandwich so can't comment on anything else but it was disgusting. Everything is microwaved and not cooked fresh. The eggs are hard and chewy, the English muffin soggy and the bacon is the worst, under cooked, chewy, fatty (see pic). Probably the worst breakfast sandwich I've ever had. Maybe try the coffee and doughnuts avoid everything else.

    Beautiful and brightly lit coffee house in Leominster!! A welcome change from just going to Dunkin' Donuts. Coffee of the week was amazing with almond milk. Egg and cheese sandwich was hot and fresh. Fresh pastry and great pound cake by the slice

    Been on the Keto for five months now, and finding it difficult to enjoy a dessert which is Keto friendly, doesn't have a strange aftertaste and also tastes good, until we stopped in Central Cup. We tried the keto bombs and lemon square. The keto bomb was not your typical Keto bomb, which usually is dry with no flavor, this one was very tasty without the bad aftertaste, we loved them. Next we tried the lemon tart square, possibly the best lemon tart that we have ever tried Keto or not. If your searching something delicious while on Keto or just want to enjoy the other items here which include cupcakes, brownies,lava cakes and more, this place has it all.

    This is probably the cutest coffee shop in town! The vibe you get when walking through the door is very welcoming. Why are you still reading this?? Go check this place out!!! The coffee is excellent, food is fresh. Really stop reading this and just go!! I don't know why I waited so long to check them out, but glad I finally did! They have a variety of tea, coffee, flavor shots. A great selection of ...muffins, cupcakes, breakfast sandwiches.

    Always rude or indifferent service - been trying it since it opened to support local businesses. Breakfast food not great. Microwave stuff.

    I was looking for a local coffee shop in the Fitchburg area and decided on Smokestack because they…read morehave a lot of good reviews. Unfortunately the food and drink didn't quite live up to my expectations. I ordered a cortado and a slice of carrot chai tea bread. The cortado had an unpleasant bitter aftertaste, like the espresso beans were overroasted. I did not realize the bread was gluten-free until I took a bite. The texture was good between the softness of the bread and the crunch of the pumpkin seeds, but didn't have the chai flavor I hoped for. I was asked if I wanted the bread warmed up and buttered so I said yes, not realizing the butter was an extra 75 cents until I checked my receipt. Feels like a bit much for a slice of bread that's already $6.75 (more than my cortado which was $4.50). On the more positive side, the shop is large and spacious with plenty of tables and chairs. There's a play area for children which is pretty cool if you have little ones with you. The ambiance is pretty unique since this is a repurposed garage. They seem very community-oriented with the event posting board at the entrance and the other local products for sale near the register. I would be willing to give this place another try should I be in the area again. I would just order a different drink and food.

    I really love finding hidden gems like Acoustic Java. I am a sucker for a good book store, AND a…read moregood coffee shop, and Acoustic Java is both! I stopped by to get a couple of coffees to go, and a pastry. The staff was very patient and pleasant to chat with - something I really miss with the larger coffee chains. The coffees were made exactly as I requested, and the pastry was warmed up and wrapped in a foil to maintain the heat. I really love the attention to detail. I'll note that I noticed they use Monin brand syrups (my favorite!). They are not the cheapest option, so it goes to show that the folks at Acoustic Java care about quality over maximizing profit. The location is great - a bit hidden, but the industrial vibe just fits for a small roasting company. I love that the roastery is visible through the glass panels. The packaged beans are all laid out for you to easily read the labels and shop. I love that they carry quality tea for non-coffee drinkers/tea lovers. The merch is also cute, I was very tempted to add yet another coffee shop tote bag to my hoard. They carry a huge variety of used and new books - and they offer the most unique pricing I've ever seen. You can look up the cost of the book online - so long as the condition is roughly the same, that's how much they will charge you for the book (+ tax)! That's amazing, and I don't know how they can possibly even make money with this policy, but with the giant chain and online retailers, it's really the best incentive to get folks to support local. I think one of the biggest highlights here, on top of the great coffee, ambiance, and service, is that they offer various tastings, classes, and live music events. Personally, I feel like this is key in building a community, and I love that they do this. You can look up the different events on their website, some of which are free to attend. I can definitely see this as a place to come read a book over some tea, catch up with a friend over coffee, or take a date to a barista class for a unique experience.

    I owe an updated review here. My past review had been negative but I welcomed to give Acoustic Java…read moreanother chance and I'm glad I did. Their coffee remains consistent and they brew the best bean in town. Truly a hidden gem...literally. They're hidden in the back of Rotmans (old furniture store) and you'll never see it from the main road. I drink coffee on a regular basis and could probably consider myself an amateur coffee snob lol. Lately I have made a purchase for teas and my wife didn't like the selections I've chose so they were welcoming and honored an exchange. I just had to pay the difference which I was glad to. We had good company with us and so there's also ample seating in the next room--you can enter from the front of the building as you enter through the main entrance or go through the back. Cheers

The coffee shop is in the midst of a bunch of parking lots and has indoor and out door seating. They host events and pop ups and have a strong community vibe. They have a limited food options but they don't mind if you order food from elsewhere. Hope to be back soon.

And I also have the old fashioned. It was delicious. They made it with hard grapefruit seltzer that they brew themselves. It is very refreshing. I also tried the seasonal latte flight, a cider donut and the banana brûlée latte. I was very pleased with the peppermint mocha. It was minty but not overly so. The gingerbread latte was the best flavor. The cookie butter latte was good. And the vanilla cardamom was my least favorite. I would have liked more of the cardamom flavor. I like that you can try all the seasonal flavors but I would like it better if it was customizable instead of being preset. The service is pretty good. I think you can open a tab or you pay each time you order. There is no waitressing, so they call you up to the bar to get your order and you bring back your dishes to a corner of the counter. The bar/beer side was pretty slow service. I waited for a while to place my order but once I placed my order it wasn't too long before I received my drink.
