When I first walked in, I wasn't impressed by the interior decor or layout. It felt a little odd, especially with the bar tucked away in the back right. The space seemed like it had recently taken over from a previous restaurant and didn't feel very unique or cozy. The hostess seated us quickly on a Friday night, but we weren't greeted by a waiter for about five minutes. We ordered soups to start. The French onion was great, but the tomato soup wasn't anything special. The Hell on Noodles dish sounded interesting, even though I'm not great with spicy food. The waiter said it wasn't too spicy, but I would disagree. It was delicious, just too spicy for my liking. My boyfriend ordered the pho with grilled chicken and really enjoyed the authentic flavors. Both dishes came in generous portions.

The seating area has a variety of couches, tables and chairs along with a craft area. The staff were very friendly. The food was fresh and flavorful.

I forget that name but it had peanut butter, banana and hot honey on it. Was sooo good, probably one of the best burgers in the area, it however wasn't in my opinion worth $20. The menu is a little miss leading, it said $20 for burger and a side. So I got fries as a side. Then the check came out and everything was itemized, the burger was $16 and the fries $4. Why not just have that on the menu? Because I would have just gotten the burger, I thought a side was just part of the $20 price point. Oh well. The ambiance was alright, a big reason why I give it 3 stars is because the inside was a little sad. They have weird random art of Nilla wafer cookies and bananas on the wall??? I mean you're a smoke house, have some photos of the smoker itself, let's see that smoke billowing out. Have some photos of animals (cattle, pigs, chickens). Idk the inside definitely needs help and was a little off putting. Service was quick and kind, a little pushy at the end, the server came up to me and handed me the bill while I was still eating and not even half way through with my meal. Would I go back, would I recommend to friends? I would get the food again, now knowing how the menu works, but I would get it to go since the inside is depressing. I would recommend to a friend, but everything in mind that I just said. Fix the inside of your restaurant and I bet you get more to come, fix your menu so that it's not miss leading and you'll have happier customers. Don't be like everyone else in Keene, that is mediocre food and terrible service. Be better than that, after all you were featured as some of the best BBQ.

Day One, I went in and ordered a bacon egg & cheese sandwich. I asked if I could substitute avocado for the cheese. They said no as the avocado is more expensive. I get it, no big deal. I ask for a bacon egg sandwich (no cheese). They take my order along with my coffee and such and I go about my business. I go back to my Air bnb and lo and behold it's an egg only sandwich. I chalk it up to talking about avocados more than I do their listening skills and I move on. Day Two, I go in to give them a second chance. I order a Harvest Bowl & 2 coffees. I pay in cash. I get my cups, fill up my coffees and wait. After a few minutes, I realize that several people have come in, ordered, served and left in front of me. I go up to the counter and ask about my order and find out it was never put in. Because I paid in cash there was no trail. It's now well over 20 minutes and the person who took my order would not even lift her head to acknowledge that she served me. I call someone else over and ask about what to do and they treat me like I'm looking for a free meal. (FYI, visually I am a successful older female). Once they retook my order I quickly went next door to the jewelry shop as I had some time sensitive business there. When I returned, bowl still not ready, but was on the stove. While I was waiting I asked to speak with the manager. Suddenly nobody wanted to be the manager. Once someone came forward, I asked if this type of service was normal. I also asked if they compensate customers who have been ignored. He THEN HAD THE NERVE TO SAY, 'WELL, YOU'RE GETTING THE BOWL FOR FREE'! There were places I wanted him to put said compensation. Never, Never, NEVER say words like that to any customer. The sad part, the food is good. The place is cute. The customer service takes all that away and more. Caitlin, you have a good thing. Don't let your employees ruin it. When I mentioned your business in the jewelry store, they avoid your place too for the same reason.

I have been going here pretty much every weekday for 2.5 years now, and I can honestly say my morning half-sweet Nutella latte is perfect every time with the weekday morning crew. The iced black tea is always brewed well, and they have the perfect selection of sweet treats. I highly recommend trying the cheesecake. They do have a restroom for customers, multiple self-serve coffee carafes, and a loyalty program for their coffee beans. I also really admire their role in the community, and the positive atmosphere within their store. Definitely give them a try.

My partner had the short rib ravioli which was also excellent. We are whiskey/bourbon drinkers and the one thing that whiskey/burboun drinkers like in their old fashioned type drinks are single, large ice rocks and not the little broken ice chips that easily dilutes your drink. These are so easy to make yourself. Just buy an ice tray that makes them. The other thing whiskey/bourbon drinkers like in their drinks are the bourbon cherries and not just the plain maraschino cherries. Just two easy recommendations to elavate the experience. The staff was also very friendly.
