I had the carrot cake inspired overnight oats and I liked that they weren't sweet, but did notice a complete lack of raisins which were listed on the ingredient list and would have elevated the flavor.

This coffee shop/café is in a building that looks like a governs house. I stumbled across this gem…read morewhile I was working the Celebration of Wallingford this past weekend. It's located right on North Main Street in Wallingford. There is public parking lot in the back as well as street parking. The decor is very adorable and with a French twist. I got a classic breakfast sandwich w breakfast potatoes, LJ French Toast, apple pie tarte crepes, and a pumpkin spice latte served in the pumpkin on this trip. Everything was very clean. The cashier taking my order was a cute as a button and very helpful. I had to try alittle of everything cause I couldn't decide but had plenty of leftovers to take home. I would definitely be back to try other menu items on the menu. This place has a wonderful French vibe and you won't be disappointed.

I normally try to give places the benefit of the doubt, but our experience at The Bees Knees Bistro…read morein Wallingford was honestly very disappointing and upsetting. My family and I arrived while it was raining outside with our young daughters in strollers, expecting to sit down for a meal and get out of the weather. Instead, we were told we could not come in with the strollers and essentially felt unwelcome the moment we walked through the door. As parents of babies who are still too young to sit safely in high chairs on their own, the strollers are not optional for us , they are necessary. We were not being disruptive, rude, or inconsiderate. We were simply trying to have a meal as a family. Rather than attempting to accommodate us or show any understanding, we were left feeling like having children made us an inconvenience. What made the situation even worse was the fact that it was pouring outside. Any level of kindness or flexibility would have gone a long way. Instead, we felt embarrassed, frustrated, and honestly shocked by the lack of compassion and customer service. Families with young children already face enough challenges going out in public, and experiences like this make it even harder. We ended up leaving and taking our business somewhere else that was far more welcoming and understanding toward families. It is disappointing because we were genuinely looking forward to trying this restaurant, but first impressions matter. A restaurant does not need to be "kid-centered" to still treat parents and babies with basic respect and decency. I completely understand that restaurants may have space limitations or policies, but there is a respectful and compassionate way to handle situations like this. Instead, the experience came across as cold and dismissive. There are many restaurants in the area that are happy to accommodate families, and moving forward those are the businesses I will continue to support. Unfortunately, after this experience, I will not be returning and would not recommend this restaurant to families with infants or children who still require strollers or extra accommodations. I wont be going back and giving them .you business, nor will I be recommending this place to anyone. Totally rude and discrimination towards those with babies. I did not feel cherished like their website says every guest is. Its sad because this will and im sure does effect their business. I will never give them my business after yesterday. No attempts at accommodating us or evening offering to let us sit outside, lazy staff, but yet there were 3 teenage girls taking names for the wait list. What a joke.

Cute little breakfast & lunch destination on a busy street. Had circle around to find a parking…read morespot....street parking. Was greeted by a very friendly server right on entry. Very busy lot of delicious plates of food being served. I went with a Blueberry Chai, Iced - Chai topped with a blueberry cold foam. To eat I chose the Candied Club it came on toasted sourdough with candied bacon, havarti cheese from Wisconsin, LTO & topped with a garlic tomato spread. It was delicious and stacked it came with a pasta salad- ditalini pasta and chopped veggies. I also grabbed my husband the Chop Shop Burger- house made veggie burger with crispy fried onions, pickled jalapenos, LTO& avocado mango sauce on a grilled brioche roll he said it was really good and filling. All in all an A + experience would definitely recommend.

I had not realized they did have savory breakfast options (the one sign I apparently missed). They also have signage promoting local activities and businesses.

It did not disappoint. The sandwich is topped with a toasted pretzel bun. The sandwich contained eggs, crispy bacon, melted cheddar, chipotle aioli and hash brown patty. I also got the side of hash browns and the suggested paired drink of the Cookie Monster. The Cookie Monster is a cookie butter, cold brew topped with cookie butter cold foam. All of these items were very delicious. I do have to note my stomach didn't exactly enjoy the combination but a couple steps of Gingerale and I was good to go. That place was fairly busy. It was Friday night around 6 PM that I went. Staff was super friendly and walked me through the process as I've never been there before, so it was very easy to understand the process.

They have a great selection of house made syrups, along with a rotating list of monthly specialty drinks, so there's always something new to try!! The shop itself is tiny, but has such a cozy, welcoming vibe and is the perfect little spot to catch up with a friend. Definitely worth stopping in if you're in the area!

I finally had the absolute pleasure of visiting Crossroads recently. What an outstanding place…read more Super awesome, cool and friendly owner/staff. Inviting comfy space. So far, I have only tried the one latte, the jasmine peach latte, which had peach puree, house made jasmine syrup, house made white tea cold foam and dried peaches. It was probably the best latte I have ever had. While their specialty drinks are only available small & medium, their sizes are 16 oz, 20 oz, 24 oz, so the small is actually the equivalent of some shops' large. I have only heard good things about their baked goods/pastries and they both looked and sounded amazing. I can't wait to try one hopefully very soon! Overall it was as close to a perfect experience as you get. Must try for sure. Immediate top spot for me.

I usually stop in early on my way work and pick up a dozen to share, when I walk in with that box I suddenly become Very Popular!! What makes them great? Neil's doughnuts are substantial without being heavy or doughy. I have never gotten a doughnut or cruller that was overcooked or oily, they know what they're doing and have good QC. Their filled doughnuts don't have a little squirt of filling piped in the end, they split them and generously fill each one. Yes, they are extremely busy, parking can be a little exciting and the line is usually out the door but it's organized, the customers know the drill and behave and the counter staff is well trained and fast; patient too for the indecisive of us. I have only been to the Wallingford one but there is a second Neil's in Middletown, not at all too much of a good thing!.

Being a coffee roaster they had lots of different beans you could take home too which is always a plus. Besides the vibes, the drinks my wife and I got were fantastic as well! Staff were friendly and drinks took no time whatsoever. My wife went an Iced Lavender Latte (w/ Oat Milk) while I went with a seasonal special of the Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte. Both drinks were well made with a good balance of the addition of the flavors and the espresso. Would definitely return for the overall vibes and drinks.
