I have visited the Winchester store many times. Muffins are all very good. The issues isn't the…read moremuffins ... The staff there are always nasty and owner must not care. I mention every visit that they should put a name tag in front of each muffin to speed up the ordering... I must waste my time and more importantly their time answering my inquires... what is that one , what is that muffin ? Does that have raisins on it ? Nuts? Dog shit in it? or whatever ? Wtf Or why are out of certain muffins ? Any In the back on racks? Put a sign up displaying a simple check mark of available muffins? One visit the nasty one at Winchester told me they were out yet I saw the muffin on a rack not yet ready to put out front? So this was my first visit to this Wakefield location ... same issues and staff nasty here too but a bit better as more mature employee? I ordered 6 muffins and wanted 2 in a separate box as a gift to someone and the other 4 in a different box...she puts the two in a bag... A bag ruins the gift look, damages frosting in muffins... they will not put any less than muffins in a box? I'll pay for the dam extra box? Or maybe a smart owner would have a small 2 muffin box? Asked for Boston cream ... out of them .. same as last visit to Winchester location where they were out of many options... Maybe if popular statistically ... then you bake more of them based on POS sales data ? Maybe seasonality affects the daily production forecasts? Maybe offer July 4th red white blue muffins, Halloween frosting, Thanksgiving? Christmas ? Then generate greater sales, The owner should hire a better manager of both locations and stick a dam name tag in display case for each muffin, train all employees in hospitality and importance to retain repeat customers? Owner probably now just mailing it in or letting the off spring to take or already took over ? Maybe sell just sell it off to a interested owner looking to expand, or Improve offerings , add high end croissants, pastries, quality cookies ... coffee and better options? Whatever... 4 years telling every visit to just put a f'n name tag in front of each muffin-so I don't need to ask.. especially for gluten free, nut free allergies conscience people... how about an ingredients sign for each muffin ? I give up

Finally tried Cibo Cafe & Bistro after seeing so much hype online, and it absolutely lived up to…read moreit. I'm very picky about lattes and this was genuinely one of the best I've had. I ordered the Coconutella latte and it was perfectly balanced, flavorful without being overly sweet. The Nutella cold foam was definitely indulgent, but the latte itself was smooth and delicious. We went on a Saturday morning and only waited about 15 minutes for coffee and food, which honestly felt very reasonable considering how popular this place is. I also got the cinnamon roll, which was HUGE and really good. I do wish it had been served warm, but after reheating the leftovers at home I loved it even more. The standout pastry was a donut-style pastry filled with pistachio cream. We also ordered the Il Classico, which was super flavorful, a great portion size, and definitely had a spicy kick. On top of the food and drinks, the service was amazing, the decor was adorable, and parking was surprisingly easy. After finally going, I completely understand why this place gets so much attention. Definitely worth the hype.

While I was waiting for my coffee, the guy from across the street came in yelling for me to move my car that was parked on the street (legally) in front of his house/business. My car had my wife and 4 month old in it and he accosted her before coming to find me. To top things off, Cibo screwed up the order completely. What a disaster, I couldn't even believe people were still ordering after walking in and seeing 20 people waiting for their order. It seems like a decent place but they should shut their order ahead off if they can't handle it. This experience made me never want to step foot in Wakefield again. I surely won't be going back to Cibo. I can't find a reason to provide more than a star here.

As a general rule, I love Caffe Nero and visit them when in the area of one of their locations…read more This one is just as worthwhile a visit as the others. First off, it's 8:30a.m. and the place is half full of mom's and their kids. So the locals also approve! One wall is covered in book shelves. A foosball table is in the back corner. A couple of tables take space in the sunny window front. All on brand. Restrooms in the back are clean. The order line forms on the left. They have all the expected sandwiches waiting for you including a Vegan Breakfast sandwich and of course some pastry. They have lots of cold and hot coffee beverages. I was tempted by a blood orange latte, but I stuck to my Americano. I had that with one of their huge croissants. I think the gentleman who helped us was new. It took him a bit of time to make the beverages, but that's OK. We're patient. He was very polite, asked all the right questions and got the order correct and that's what matters. We picked a couple of comfortable seats near the entrance and watched the constant flow of customers come and go. Around 9a.m. it looked like a bus load of high school students were dropped off at the door. Ha! Not an actual bus, but that line was long. This is a great spot for a variety of coffee drinks, pastry, sandwiches and meeting up with friends. The neighborhood clearly agrees.

If you're into healthy/crunchy/granola lifestyle, this place seems legit full on (not sure if the…read morecoffee is fair trade kind of thing, but I didn't try/ask). Got takeout for the Breakfast Blend smoothie, My Goodness salad, chicken shawarma wrap and falafel wrap. Food was nicely flavored, though relatively mild - not super exciting but it probably allows more vege flavor to come through. The wraps look grilled but the food wasn't hot like you might think a grilled thing might be, so it's acting more like something done for flavor and looks. The wraps might have been nice with some pops of brighter flavor, and the falafel wrap could benefit from some additional texture, because it's akin to the smoothness of a tuna salad. 5 yo and 9 yo kids enjoyed the wraps though, so that's a win. Salad was also generally nicely flavored/mild, but I kind of wanted a bit more flavor from the marinated beets (in combination with the rest, it was fine). Smoothie has a strong kick from ginger and radish, and is not very sweet (just know what you're getting into and not be surprised expecting some overly sweet smoothie). Overall solid choice for healthy food.

Lovely Pastry shop in Winchester, with some more offerings…read more This place is one part pastry shop, one part charcuterie shop, one part wine shop and one part European market. It's open and airy. They have seating in the back. The pastries were so good. Looking forward to trying more stuff there. They also have coffee and specialty drinks they make. The cheese and meat area is a separate counter with all your charcuterie needs. The cheeses looked so good. There are meats as well. Beyond that is a little nook of wine and spirits. The front of the store in like a little European market. They have oils and candies and sauces. This place is great for pastry but I would come before hosting a party to get wine, charcuterie and pastry all in one place. Love everything about this place. Service was awesome. Staff so friendly.

We ordered two breakfast sandwiches on English muffins, one with bacon and one with sausage. You could tell the muffins were homemade and the eggs were freshly cooked. While everything was cooked well, my main issue was that it lacked flavor. The breakfast sandwich with sausage did get more flavor due to the sausage, but the bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich felt like eating a warm English muffin only. There also was a very small amount of bacon which didnt help. We also ordered two coffees which were good, but tasted like any other cafe coffee. There are plenty of seating options inside and outside which is nice and the staff is friendly. I did appreciate the freshness of the ingredients so Id likely give a different item on the menu a try next time.

Upon entering, the spot was bright, very welcoming, organized and extremely clean! As an avid bubble tea goer this alone already had me very excited to place my order! I'm so happy that there is finally a GongCha in the area and this place has a bit of a much more upscale ambiance compared to the other Gongcha's that I have been to in the past! The staff were super friendly and even offered suggestions based on my flavor preferences which was super sweet of them! I ended up getting both a mango slush as well as a pearl bubble tea and both were so good! My drinks came out extremely fast and of course the taste to no surprise was great! Overall, a super inviting and fun experience- I definitely will be back with friends and family. If you're in the area, definitely stop by- the workers and owner are very welcoming, especially if you're looking for something sweet to start or end the day off! Keep it up, I loved it!
