Outside is decorated well, and with it close to the lake and the park its got lots of alternative seating options around. Inside is a little sparse on seating and decoration. It's very much a brand new location just getting itself set up. It's got a little of the macabre themes but it's light and open. So it's basic but has a little character. The got a house blend with a snickers latte. No coffee cups just to-go. Took my pics and began the trek home. The coffee was very hot when I got it. They brew their drip coffee in large brewing stands so it's a very hot brewing method. Lose a lot of the subtle flavor notes that way, but as it cooled down I was able to get the bright and mid notes. It's a strong roasted flavor mid with a little of the bright fruity notes on top. With better temp control, would probably get more of the fruit notes. Good coffee, just limited by the technique. The snickers latte was surprisingly pleasant. It had a decent amount of sugar but the roasted peanut flavor combined with the roasted coffee flavor notes really played well against each other. It really helped cut through the caramel sweetness and led to a nice sweet dessert like sip. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, the lead brewer was happy to talk about their beans and process. They were busy though, so couldn't get all the details. But they know their beans and their roast. Price is actually kinda low for the quality. Not upset about that, but I suspect that they may raise prices as time goes on to match other coffee shops. They do make their own bakery items but the selection is limited. The cookie I had was a solid oatmeal raisin but wasn't unique or different. Just a well executed oatmeal raisin. As a coffee shop, it's still figuring itself out. Once it gets its character and refines its brew then it stands to be a strong coffee shop for the area. For now, it's great but basic.

We fell in love with the Suffield Café Barista (there's also one in East Windsor) during yesterday's visit. It was difficult to limit the number of things we walked out with to a reasonable amount, but we did get a big soft pretzel, a croissant, a gingerbread muffin, and two Danish horns - chocolate-pistachio and an almond.

Cafe Barista is a spacious cafe offering breakfast, lunch and coffee options. When I walked inside, there was no one at the counter. This wait gave me the chance to analyze the menu. I got their Berry Punch Açaí Bowl. The Avocado Toast also looked like a good choice. It looked like they could use to hire an associate or two. The girl taking the orders, was also taking payments and making orders. She brought my açaí bowl out to me. This was super fresh and tasty. The açaí base was freshly made, topped with strawberries, blueberries, banana and granola. It was very cool and refreshing on the 80 degree day. There are so many other delightful options at Cafe Barista.

We've already fallen in love with the Suffield Café Barista, and today we visited their other location in East Windsor. The end result was the same. They pretty much do it all with a breakfast and lunch menu, gorgeous baked goods, plenty of coffee beverages, gelato, a big spacious dining area, Acai bowls and smoothies, nice outdoor seating plaza, friendly and very pleasant staff, and plenty of parking in that big shopping center where Routes 140 and 5 crisscross each other. It was difficult to limit the number of things we walked out with to a reasonable amount, but we did get an almond croissant, a ham and cheese croissant, two chocolate croissants and a gingerbread muffin. We split the almond croissant for dessert, and it was stellar -soft and flaky with a sweet almond filling. The next day, I had the ham and cheese croissant for breakfast, and it was amazing as well. I was surprised at how many ham slices were inside. We finished off our haul with a chocolate croissant each, and they were the best of the batch. Fresh, flaky and absolutely loaded with a blanket of decadent chocolate. So, after visiting both Cafe Baristas, it appears that you simply can't go wrong with anything coming out of their kitchen.
