It wasn't even on my itinerary, but the café looked so nice that I decided to stop in, and I'm so glad I did! The music was really great and created such a nice atmosphere. The service was quick! I got the pumpkin spice latte, and the coffee tasted so fresh with the perfect amount of sweetness. It was honestly one of the best pumpkin spice lattes I've ever had. I also got a simple plain bagel, but it was so fresh and really good. It paired perfectly with the coffee. Overall, it was such a great way to start the fall season and made my day in Salem even better. Definitely a great little find!

Everything is so thoughtfully curated, and there's definitely something for everyone. The coffee was delicious as well! Just be prepared for a wait... and I mean a LONG wait.

You can definitely tell they're exhausted from the crowds and constant rush, so there were a couple of moments where some of the staff came across a little snappy. But given how busy it was, we completely understood and just made the best of it. Overall, we really loved our experience and would definitely come back.

Service was friendly and prompt. It looked like food is served from another window and drinks are ready at the end of the counter. Looking at the display of treats, so many things looked so good! But as we can't try them all in one visit, we ordered two of the Citrus Blueberry Corn Slices and two Sticky Bun Lattes (iced and hot). Those corn slices I can write home about. Or better yet, post about it on Yelp! They were moist and not crumbly, the blueberries added an extra pop of juicy flavor and paired so well. It was the perfect snack. The Sticky Bun Lattes were a great warm up for the opposing grey rain sky. Sweet hot caffeine, is there anything better?

We just needed a quick little pick me up while exploring and grabbed a couple of drinks and a grilled cheese. I ended up getting an iced chai latte and it was great. They made the drinks so fast here that I had barely any wait. The grilled cheese came out and in a fit of hunger, we scarfed it down quick. It was so good!! The bread was toasted perfectly and it was the perfect quick lunch. The space was great, staff was friendly, and the food/drinks were tasty. This was one of the highlights of our day in Salem.

Front Street Coffeehouse was one of my favorite coffee stops in Salem, Massachusetts. Located in…read morethe heart of downtown, this cozy café has been part of the community since 1996 and is known as "Salem's Living Room." After visiting, I understand why. I ordered an iced decaf coconut flavor oat milk latte, and it was absolutely delicious. When the coconut flavoring ran out just before I ordered , the staff happily went to the back and opened a new bottle so they could make exactly what I requested. They were fun, friendly, and seemed happy to help. That small act of care made me feel welcomed and valued as a customer. The latte itself was smooth, flavorful, and perfectly cold, exactly what I needed while walking around Salem on a steamy summer day. Front Street serves Jim's Organic Coffee, and the quality came through in every sip. I also loved the coffeehouse's cozy, lived-in atmosphere and its visible LGBTQ inclusivity. It felt like a place created for community: warm, expressive, relaxed, and welcoming to everyone. That matters to me just as much as a great cup of coffee. Delicious coffee, joyful service, and wonderfully inclusive energy made this a five-star experience. I cannot wait to return.

The workers were patient and even waited for us as we ordered (there are so many options!) Candy bar latte 9/10: You must get this drink if you're a fan of sweet things.

My husband who is not gluten free also loved this place and had an egg sandwich one day, and some sort of tater tot bowl the second day!

The entire meal of food + drink was perfectly filling post-run. Seating isn't ample, but there are options---countertop at the window for people-watching, or cozier seating by the back wall. It's definitely in a central location of Salem and I can see this place being a local favorite!

Overall, it's a convenient lunch spot if you're nearby, affordable, easy but not necessarily a must-visit.
