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.

Coffee is great. Crepes are amazing…read more But this place seems to have fallen on hard times with all the newer competition in the center like Nero's. One problem: they're not on Uber Eats. As far as I can tell, anyway. All of their competitors are: Nero, Hartford Baking Co, Starbucks, Bruegger's, Dunkin'..... In 2026, I don't think this is optional. Notice how many Super Bowl ads were Uber Eats, GrubHub, and DoorDash? They must be doing pretty well if they can afford Super Bowl ads. Maybe places don't like the lower margins, but isn't that better than no sale at all? Plus it becomes an advertisement for your place. For many lazy people like myself, if you're working from home, you don't want to get up earlier to trudge out in the cold and snow. But if you can just tap your phone and get it delivered in 20 minutes....... Do it, guys. It might be your only hope.

Yea, I absolutely hated this place. Sorry, I was supposed to start with the positive. The ONLY…read morepositive was that the food was good! Bagel was a little dry, and paying $1.50 for cream cheese and only getting it on one side of the bagel, whack! Anyway, I tried Stevie's for the first time today and I was very optimistic. As soon as I walked in, I noticed three employees backstage (yes, backstage while I was waiting on someone to come centerstage and actually work, they were just prepping), not one of them was at the cash register, ready to take my order, and no one even greeted me as I stood there for almost a minute. Now granted, one girl was clearly making an order, there was a guy on the phone, so there was only one possible employee that could have been at the register.. instead she was walking back and forth behind the bagels doing nothing. I watched her scratch her head and pat her scarf like she had just rolled out of bed! She intentionally avoided even looking toward the register, and seeing as how there's a bell on the door, I'm sure she knew I was there! Anyway, she finally, but slowly saunters toward the front, but stops at the girl making a sandwich to ask, "is she waiting for something?" I'M WAITING FOR YOU, GIRL!!!! WTF!!! I started to leave right then, especially after she looked dead at me, before asking the other girl was I waiting for something! She walks up "are you ready to order?" I started to leave again, because who greets a customer like that?! I said, "HI. GOOD MORNING." She stared at me like "I already greeted you when I asked if you were ready to order." At this point, her sour demeanor and nasty unprofessionalism have taken my mood from pleasant to irritated. As I stared at the menu with no prices. I asked what types of cream cheese they had. The other girl from backstage happened to be walking by the cash register and she points to a print out. With all the thousands of overhead, up top, beneath, and side menus, text, words, fonts, and colors everywhere I had missed it. The girl standing there like I interrupted her nap, says "Yea it's right there, I didn't realize you couldn't see it." SMART ASS!!! I said, I'll get the garlic & herb on a spinach bagel. She rings it up. It says sun-dried tomato cream cheese on the small screen, I ask her if that's a mistake or if it rings up that way? (I am allergic to tomato, so I MUST ASK.) She says nothing, but instead prints out the ticket, where she shows me her note at the bottom, "sub garlic & herb" she then says "I heard what you said, you're right here, I just had to ring it up that way because there's no button for garlic&herb." I tell her that it didn't show her note on the payment screen, so I just wanted to make sure. Her attitude is literally making me sick!!! It's so unneccsarily sarcastic and nasty for no reason!! If I wasn't hungry and on a time crunch, I would've found another, cleaner, more pleasant and professional place to get a bagel. I spent over $10 on a meat-less bagel with less than a spoonful of cream cheese. smh. If I owned this place, I would do a complete renovation, deep clean, and fire the entire team and rehire people that will at least have some sense of customer service, professionalism, and sanitary food handling skills. I won't be back, which is a shame, because that was a damn good bagel.

First time visiting Steve's Bagels and I had a great experience…read more One thing to note: the in-store menu doesn't list prices, but everything was very reasonable. You can also check their menu online. I ordered the NY Classic and a homemade banana nut muffin; both tasted fresh and delicious. I also tried two frozen smoothies, passion fruit and mango piña colada, and they were very tasty. For pickle lovers, they currently have a Steve's Long Island pickle sandwich on the menu, which looked like a fun and unique option. They have a self-service coffee station and a full staff working the floor. Since it was my first time, the staff was very helpful and gave suggestions on things to try. Even though it was busy; with a mixed crowd dining in and phone orders constantly coming in; the line moved quickly and I didn't wait long at all. They even brought the food to where I was sitting. You can see straight into the kitchen, which looked very clean and organized. I also noticed they're active on social media, which is nice to see from a local business. Freshly made food, quick service, and great customer service. I'll definitely be back.

I personally am not a major fan of filled cupcakes, but sometimes I do appreciate a pudding filled pure decadence cupcake. The crumb is tender, the frosting is plentiful, and the price is reasonable. Sometimes the selection can be a bit limited, but it's still a very solid bakery for the area. One of the better places in the area for a sweet treat.

This was the second cake the Carlitos bakery made for the shower because I DROPPED THE FIRST ONE! I picked the first cake and within 15 minutes a dropped it getting out the car. I called Carlitos immediately! Not only did the owner graciously made another, but most importantly, the cake was for an event the very next day! The miracle and patience this woman had was commendable. Needless the day the service is 10/10! The food: JESUS! I've used Carlitos before the bridal shower. She made a cake for my sisters birthday and some pastries for a friend's event. The mini cheese cake sups are delectable! Mouth watering and the perfect portion. The quesitos are rich and fluffy. The atmosphere: Inviting. It feels like friendship. Like a home. Almost like Sunday mornings at your aunts house or grandmas. The place is clean and warm. The display cases are full and very tempting! Pricing: BEYOND fair. When I dropped the cake she charged me less than the first one. Please stop by and give the wonder small business some love!

They have storess in South Windsor, East Windsor, Manchester, Vernon, and Tolland, plus dozens of Big Y, Highland Park, Geissler, Price Chopper, and Shop Rite supermarkets. Their modern and very comfortable store interiors have the feel of an upscale bakery or café, so it's a great place to sit and unwind with homemade bagels, muffins, wraps, salads, lattes, frozen drinks, and more. The bagel choices have all your favorites (and a few more) like Blueberry, Cinnamon Raisin, Egg, Everything, Onion, Plain, Poppy, Pumpernickel, Sesame, Whole Wheat, etc. The bagels are pretty big -the one we had with cream cheese and smoked salmon last night was five inches across, so a half was enough. Yesterday I picked up a big bag of assorted goodies including an amazing looking Cheddar Bagel with tantalizing jalapeno slices. I have to seriously ponder what's going on that beauty! Any suggestions?
