A great cafe and equally wonderful spot for a lunch! I stopped in here on July 4th weekend…read more(actually it was July 4th) when all other spots in town were closed. We had our pup with us, so spots where we could sit down were even more limited, but luckily, a lunch at Familiars was only a very long line away. While the group waited outside at one of the sidewalk tables, I went inside to order at the counter. I got the chicken salad sandwich and have to say I was so surprised by how delicious it was. I'm not from here, so from just the outside and where you order, I thought they were a cafe first with food options, but nope. Definitely wrong, they make a great sandwich. And the coffees were also delicious! Baristas and team were all friendly, the space inside was very cool, cozy and comfortable and they had plenty of outside tables as well. You order at the counter and they will bring all of the food out to you, you also grab your own waters inside. A nice mix of casual and service. If I was local or visiting when I needed a space to bring my laptop and get some remote work done, this seems like a great option.

When I first discovered Familiars I thought: "Finally a decent place in N'Hampton (detractors and…read morerump swabs, please hold your whining). To be fair there's plenty to like about this place but the fall from grace is both unfortunate and was avoidable. It boils down to a poor decision to change coffee brands from the excellent Counter Culture to some small batch, no name mediocre choice. Perhaps when this small roaster goes out of business, they'll switch back. They've fortunately stuck with Iggy's for breads and treats and the service and vibe remain strong.

The fish was delightfully salted and greasy with a gorgeous lemon flavor. Knish was a nice surprise savory and tender, though could use a little more potato to fill it out and make it a meal rather than a snack. I went the carnivorous route, but was very impressed by the spread of vegan offerings. Will definitely be back.

While it was good, the rye bread looked so much better!! Pastrami vegan as it was amazingly delicious taste and mouth feel. Vinegar based Potato Salad had dill and also delicious. Others wished for mayo type base which wasn't offered. Not included, I missed having a pickle slice to go with it. I noticed they offer 3 types but not new dill, my fav. They offer real meat but, I'll say again, my first vegan pastrami was very nice!!

It was mainly a bakery, with a small counter and one employee at the front, where you place your order. All the breads looked amazing, but I decided to just go with a pretzel, since I was just looking for a little snack. I know it's hard to base a review off a pretzel alone, but wowza, that pretzel was delicious! It was clear that the ingredients were top notch. If you're looking for more of a café vibe, you're not going to find it here. But if you're looking for some great baked goods, look no further!

That said, the food was seasoned well and everything tasted good. The service was also great, and I really enjoyed the mimosa! Overall, it wasn't a bad experience at all, I just don't think I was really in the mood for breakfast today. My only hesitation was the price; breakfast for two with one coffee one mimosa came out to about $54, which felt a little pricey to me. However, this is the economy we live in. I'd definitely say it's worth trying if you're a breakfast person, especially for the good service and mimosas!

My wife and I went to state street for sandwiches. It's a really nice local grocery in Northampton…read morewith a small town feel. All the cold salads and soups are made in house and all the sandwiches are made to order. No pre sliced stuff here! The selection of sandwiches is numerous and super hard to choose from. All are reasonably priced and the two that my wife and I ordered were very generous in meat and vegetables. It's definitely a great value for the money. Fresh vegetables, meat and bread made to order for around the $10 price point....no brainer! Go try them. I think you'll be surprised and satisfied.
