Previously, I remember going to a wedding shower there and having dinner another time. Since then, I thought they were just doing catering, but fortunately they are open for lunch (I believe Wednesday-Saturday?). And they have a brunch on the weekend. The place was full - recommend making a reservation. We started with the soup(s) they had - 3 types & we each had a different one. A chicken, beef , and vegetable one. I had the chicken salad sandwich special- delicious! And my friends had the 2 different quiche specials. Everything came with a side of a macaroni salad - very good. We split the almond joy crepe - would recommend!! The restaurant is located in a yellow colonial house - beautiful & quaint.

Let's call it Modern Country. It seemed to be a spot where Students study and much of the seating was taken. I like Radial's Cold Brew. It's rich, smooth. I do have a comment for consideration though. I am an all year iced coffee drinker. I prefer iced coffee to cold brew. I also prefer a light medium, or medium roast with a bright flavor profile. Offering a rich Cold Brew and a bright iced coffee would be a level up. They have some pastries and treats. I didn't try any food in this visit. I know they used to have Small State food at the other location and I understand they don't any more. That's too bad. It was a nice feature. 4.5 Stars

Service was acceptable, but lacking in level of personality or engagement. For me, these characteristics are memorable and would help inspire me to come back. The food was as described on the menu, but equally lacking in pizazz. My Mexican Bowl was lukewarm and my friends' burgers were both well-done, despite only one of them asking for it being this way, and the fries were overcooked. I like crispy, but not to the over-the-top degree to which they were done. Bottom line: Eat here if you are hungry and your needs will be met, but this place could use a lift in sparkle and quality.

It's okay but pricy…read more I've been to this location a few more times since my last review. The last couple of times the place was very busy and getting seating was not possible. During my last visit it was relatively quiet, so I took a seat and went through the menu. My server was very friendly and professional. I took her recommendations and got the churro crepes and peppermint latte. Latte came out quick, same with the crepe. The latte was very sweet, lots of sugar and mint. Coffee flavor was obliterated, and was a bit much for me. Informed my server, offered a drip coffee as a replacement but I opted against. The crepe was going to be a lot of sugar too, so just sent it back. She communicated with her team to watch the syrup pours for future drinks, which is a good proactive move. The churro crepes. Conceptually is a good idea. The cheesecake filling was tasty and a reprieve from the avalanche of caramel syrup and sugar. The churros were warmed up but the server was very honest that they were not made on the spot. Outside of the churro was crunchy and inside was stuffed. The crepe was not warm, so I don't think it was made fresh to order either. When I asked the server, she insisted it was made to order. The price was 21 for the latte and crepe. The price of the crepe was high for the quantity and quality. The latte was reasonable for price, but might want to ask to go light on the syrup. Given the location, it's one of the few breakfast spots around that area. It's not bad, but they do price accordingly for the lack of competition. It's not a trek place, but it's one of the few options around without driving 15 minutes. If you need breakfast in that area, then it works.

They're light and fluffy with just a little crisp on the outside, and absolutely 0 greasy taste/texture. Their blueberry glaze was especially outstanding, but there wasn't a single one in the six-pack that we didn't love. PLUS 2/3 of the flavors are always changing! And they have daily coffee flavors! The doughnut flavors are really unique too (think chocolate pretzel, maple bacon, etc.). Even better, everything they sell/use is sourced from CT. Slight points off for the atmosphere (it's very cute but could use some sound dampening), but let's be real - it's a place designed to pick up your doughnuts and go, not sit and linger, so I'm not dinging it down from the 5-star review it deserves.

Get there as close to their 6 am opening as possible because they may run out of their most popular donuts by 8 if not earlier. And bring cash. I arrived at 6:15 a.m. There was a steady flow of people, but no line and no apparent missing donut types. The donuts run on the smaller side, but they are a good value. Like $8 a dozen good value. The donuts were obviously fresh made and well executed. They were smartly packaged too. I tried parts of a cruller, a crumb, a cherry, a chocolate toasted coconut and a toasted coconut. All tasty. Great texture. High quality donuts. Gerry's has a classic vibe. There are some tables and some counter seats. Everybody I saw got takeout. Service was helpful and efficient.
