    The best thing about this place was the service! It was five star. The young woman who worked there were so friendly and informative, it makes me want to go back there. The place is clean and welcoming, and there were lots of people camped out and working on laptops. There is a large range of coffee and tea choices from the simple to the fancy. I tried a plain cold brew, and it was good. Next time I go back, I definitely want to try one of their fancier concoctions. I also had a bagel with cream cheese and a blueberry scone, they were both fine as well. Not raves, but perfectly good. The parking is easy and the prices were reasonable. It's a good little spot.

    Stumbled upon this coffee shop located inside East Rock Market Hall. Super cute location to grab a quick coffee and even study at! Wifi is available but no outlets. I would recommend getting their coffee (although it's on the pricer end). As for the pastries, I forgot how much I was charged for the chocolate croissant but I would not recommend. It was super basic. I'd say go to G-cafe if you're looking for a better croissant. Large Vanilla Cold Brew with Vanilla Sweet Cream Foam ($7.50) Large Caramel Apple Cold Brew ($6.50)

    Placed inside of East Rock Market in New Haven, we took a quick visit to Ground Up Coffee's 2nd location. Their menu has all the classics and even has pup cups for your furry friends! They also serve some pastries and Shef's Bagels (for anyone familiar with the Cheshire bagel spot). We tried a cold brew, iced matcha latte, Cinnamon Toast Crunch iced coffee, and a Fruity Pebbles Iced Coffee. We enjoyed everything. The market also has seating and Ground Up is open until 4pm to snag your caffeine fix. Will definitely be back to try more! Love the location as well; conveniently placed if you wanna explore more of the market or the brewery, etc next door. For more, see @sipsandsizzles on Instagram

    New place getting its feet under it. Had a very good macchiato. Good addition to the East Rock Market.

    This was some good coffee!…read more This was our first stop off the train from NYC. We needed a pick me up and energy for that infamous food crawl we were about to get into. So thankful it was in the quiet and quaint neighborhood of New Haven. Such a beautiful area. Very close to all the spots I had bookmarked. Cool coffee shop I gotta say. Spacious and clean. Just the actual vibe alone was relaxing. This is one of those locations where you can actually come sit and not be bothered. Few people inside were working on their laptops, some were just conversing with their friends. The barista was super friendly and worked fast. One thing I noticed and was wowed on was they serve wine as well. I mean how cool is that. Felt like I was at France for a minute, where the cafes serve coffee, tea and qwasonts during the day, and cocktails at night. Very chill. Can't thank them enough for how clean the bathroom was as well. All in all great coffee and service.

    Order a lavender honey latte to go. I didn't have to wait for it or anything so service was good…read morethere. But I couldn't find parking easily and the latte was just alright. Not a lot of favor and no sweet at all which I thought that was interesting. The server did over to add more honey but I opted out because I was in a rush. They seemed business though. A lot of people inside on a winter day doing work. Maybe try a coffee , but they're no Latte Pedaler, at least to me.

A charming coffee…read moreshop and cozy experience is tucked away at the graduate hotel in New Haven, and it seems to be one of those places that if you know you know... And now that I know, I can't wait to return. I met a friend for a morning meeting here on a rainy day and this was the perfect cozy atmosphere to enjoy espresso and friendship. We opted for a flat white and macchiato. The staff was extremely welcoming and made sure we understood that they make an authentic macchiato, not the commercialized version which gave us a chuckle! The macchiato was perfectly crafted as well. as the flat white, complete with gorgeous latte art on top. I was expecting great coffee, which they delivered. What surprised me was the spinach quiche. I wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary, but I've basically been dreaming about this quiche since I've had it. Light and fluffy, it more closely resembles an egg bite/sous vide egg bite since it does not have a traditional quiche crust. However, it was fantastic with great spinach flavor and a buttery and cheesy finish. DROOL. The space is so inviting, clean, cozy with plenty of different options for seating; from intimate nooks, to upholstered chairs and couches, to plain wooden chairs, there's something for every comfort level. I cannot wait to come back here with my laptop to get some work done, and will definitely have more coffee dates here!

All are welcome, you don't have to stay at the hotel, and they're quite generous with letting you linger for a bit. The space is beautiful with lots of chandeliers and a mix of wide open seating and a little nook, all of it decorated with many fun paintings. The coffee is quite good. I had a flat white last time and it was very good. Kinda pricey, but good quality plus I got to enjoy the shop's ambiance for a while. Also worth knowing, decent amount of outlets, kinda slow wifi.

    Finding a place to park was miserable. I parked in Sally's Apizza small little lot. Despite the…read moresigns thank goodness I did not get towed! Every person we encountered in Ero Cafe was super friendly! I got a Vietnamese Coffee which was good but strong! I also got a cookie butter iced latte. Now that was Yummy! I used the Bischoff cookie on top to eat the whipped cream. The cup was smeared with cookie butter which made my day! For lunch I had a steak panini. The steak was a shaved steak. The cheese pull I wish I would have gotten a picture of. Along with the panini came a unique salad it was well chopped cucumbers, tomatoes, (another veggie or fruit was in there but I could not tell what is was) and a garlic oil. Im not a big veggie person but this salad was delicious. If someone else was driving or nicer weather for a walk I would for sure go back!

All of the food arrived cold, and our table was initially given the wrong order. After it had already been handled, the staff took it back and served it to another table, which raised serious concerns about hygiene. My cappuccino was also served cold, and the coffee itself was very acidic and not enjoyable. Instead of making a new one, they poured it into another cup and reheated it with the steaming wand--even though I had already taken a sip. That felt unsanitary and unprofessional. Overall, there were multiple issues that suggest poor food handling practices. I wouldn't return.
