Huge line of course but that's what is expected at such a popular spot! I wish the price point was a bit more justified, some of the coffees were lacking in flavor especially the vanilla iced latte my friend got. However the specialty lattes like cookie butter were worth the wait! Lots of seating, even during peak business! Chill music, definitely a great study spot! read more

My friend raved about this coffee shop and she was not wrong! My husband and I were in the area on a Saturday morning and stopped by to grab drinks. There are plenty of seats indoor and outdoor but they did fill up fast. They have plenty of specialty drinks and a huge breakfast and lunch menu. We ordered two large speciality drinks and they were huge! We got the pistachio matcha and salted honey bee latte. Both were delicious. Totally worth the price and they don't cheap on the ingredients. I would definitely come back here. read more

Such a cute spot! The staff were super knowledgeable when it came to picking out food and drinks, which I loved. Their merch is SO cute, like actually obsessed, everything is so well designed. The s'mores latte was amazing and aesthetic, perfect for my sweet tooth, the lavender lemonade was refreshing on a warm day, and I was honestly impressed with how good they made a grilled cheese... read more

This place is more than great coffee...it's a vibe and a half. The service is quick and somewhat friendly. The interior is cozy and welcoming. The food - Last drop sammie - 4.5 out of 5 BEC (sesame bagel) - 4 out of 5 Coffee - Shaken iced latte on the fall menu with pumpkin cloud foam, brown sugar and I think caramel is ! The pumpkin spice latte fell short for me. This is a spot I will be going back to. Get more buckets please. read more

came here one morning and it was so busy but in the best way possible - it was so lively and felt like you were at someone's house. something i haven't seen or felt since pre-covid, it just really made me smile. I'm blanking on the name of the sandwich i got but it was MOUTH WATERING! Crazy good roast beef, russian dressing, cheese, the whole nine yards, i wish i could second one, it was that good. the cinnamon roll warmed up was also one to remember, id burn my hands while ripping it apart any time again! And that Cindy Lou Matcha, so creative and fantastic, it should be permanently on the menu! check. this. place. out. now. read more

One of my favorite cafés in the 203 area it has really fun flavored lattes. I will say they are often very sweet so keep that in mind while ordering. I tried their food for the first time. I liked my turkey club and my friend got the bacon egg and cheese. It is always busy so keep that in mind. Make sure you give yourself enough time if you're trying to stop on the way to somewhere.

Finally checked this place out! Walking in and immediately you can see how spacious this cute spot is. Enough tables and chairs around for everyone. There's a spot for their merch to check out. I loved that they had their regular drink menu and their seasonal menu. Lots of great options for drinks and food! Their breakfast and lunch options sound delicious. I ordered the cranberry mayo sandwich which has turkey, bacon, lettuce, onion and mayo on it. It was juicy, not dry. For coffee, I ordered the Cinnabon iced latte. Omgggggg soooooo good. Next time I'm ordering a large. This place is definitely a must try! CT should have a coffee trail like they do with beer and wine. This place should be on the coffee trail! read more

An easy stop when commuting south through Monroe! Alaina, the owner of Last Drop has been with this spot for 15 years---The back story of this coffee shop to where it is today is one to learn. It brings in customers of all kind with lines out the door because of their amazing ambiance, their specialty drinks and delicious food items. It's truly the best local spot for daily commuters, family weekend breakfast get-togethers, and an after-school friendship hangout. Their B.E.C is a top breakfast sandwich choice & definitely recommending the Crème brûlée iced latte. They host pop up vendors from the community and have the chic gold mirror for fun pictures with your friends or family. Key Features: Parking is easy to navigate and available. Lots of drink options with a fun special menu that is often posted on social media (specialty drinks or lattes). With it being so busy, the baristas are quick to get orders out and the food is no different. Milk alternatives available, a large food menu to choose from. read more

Love trying local coffee shops and the last drop is definitely one of my favorites so far! They have a ton of options for coffee and specialty drinks. We tried the holiday cookie latte and it was delicious and not overly sweet. There's also good options for food like the bagels and sandwiches. Definitely recommend trying out the everything bagel with veggie cream cheese. This place gets pretty busy especially on the weekends, but drinks and food come out pretty quick. It's a cute and cozy vibe with a ton of seating inside too. This is my go to place whenever I'm in the area and need coffee! read more

I don't know what's the hype about this place. It seems like a regular coffee shop, but this appeared on my wife's IG feed and since she needed a place to touch down on the way up to MA, she decided to stop by here. The food was alright, wasn't anything special. I honestly expected more since it was on IG, but everyone has their own opinion. We ordered 2 sandwiches and some French toast and pancakes. We also had to get the bucket coffee. Do not get their specialty coffee selections. It was way too sugary and had more milk than coffee. The staff were alright, we didn't have much interaction besides ordering the food because after you order you don't need to interact with the staff ever again. They did not have a lot of tables inside, but they had a few tables outside. This is also assuming you're going there on a nice day. If they end up going there during a rainy day, you might not get a seat and will just have to take your coffee on the road. This place would probably just be a once in a lifetime pit stop for myself. read more

Found myself around this area of the state (Monroe) and my husband noticed that their was a coffee shop near by when he started up our GPS. Duh, we had to pop in at Last Drop Coffee Shop. This is a hidden gem, a cozy little cafe with plenty of seating, serving up coffee, tea, breakfast, lunch and pastries. I wish I could of stayed longer, but I got myself a hot Creme Brûlée Latte. It was a chilly, rainy, autumn day and this was the perfect cup of goodness. The latte was smooth, lightly sweet and delicious caramelized flavor. The drink also was made speedy quick. I wanted to take pictures of the space (it was very cute and cozy), but it was fairly crowded. There was a lot of seating for a small cafe and almost every seat was occupied. This is a sign to me that this place is well loved and people want to come, relax and enjoy coffee/food here. Last Drop Coffee Shop is an hour away from me and I hope to find an excuse to visit Monroe again. I'd love to try more drinks and their food items. My husband is the real MVP because I almost let this place pass me by! read more

I wish I could have taken more pics except Last Drop in Monroe CT was quite busy. Im not the type who will just take pics of strangers without their consent. Im hoping to go back and actually sit inside and take in the sights. I took my order to go because snow was predicted and I could not tell if said snow would be bad. As always I got an iced drink I have to be really cold or forgot to say iced to get a hot drink. My order a large Muddy Waters which was mocha and hazelnut two of my fav coffee flavors. I had not eaten yet so I ordered a grilled steak and cheese. Let me tell You this sandwich was . Thick bread grilled to perfection with plenty of butter. Bad for the waistline but as far as Im concerned the way a grilled cheese should be. This sandwich was stacked with good quality steak. Then the cheese I want more writing about it. The cafe itself had about 7 tables and a small minimal space bar type area to sit at There was also a couch for those looking for a comfy staying for a while visit. A must try coffee shop / cafe in Monroe. read more

Such good iced chai. I usually hate coffee shops that add way too much ice and use a very sugary syrup for chai, but this ice chai is perfectly iced and well-spiced and flavored. I also had a very good veggie sandwich. The patty was great and the whole sandwich was well flavored. Many vegetarian options can sometimes be too dry but this was a great sandwich. The shop is also super cute and vibey with so many books on the bookshelves that I enjoyed picking up and flipping through. On top of it all, the staff is super nice. read more

The menu and everything in the display cases looked so appetizing, we had such a difficult time choosing what to order! We started with BEC sandwiches - they were made really well on delicious toasted rolls - my only complaint was the Kraft American cheese singles. Please upgrade the cheese and it will make the world of a difference to the meal!! I also had a hot tea with some pastries we got: Oreo cheesecake and an ombligo with a custard filling - absolutely delicious and perfectly sweetened. The inside decor was very nice and offered comfy soft seating to dine in with. I will definitely make a drive up soon from Norwalk to enjoy some more!

We had thought this might be related to the Dulce de Leche chain in northern New Jersey, but it's a…read moresmall place with a local vibe. We tried the beef and the spinach/mushroom empanadas, a chocolate filled pastry and the alfajores. The empanadas were the proper baked Argentinian version. I thought the beef was very tasty but it lacked the chopped olive I associate with the Argentinian style. La Portena had no complaints about her spinach/mushroom version. The alfajores came in three sizes, something I did not realize when ordering. I would not repeat my order of the large size, the ratio of cookie to filling being off. The medium looked about right. The best item was a chocolate filled pastry, similar to a croissant that I had the next day. Flaky and light, it revealed some skill in the baking.

Cute and comfy interior!

Many entrees are already served on a bed of lettuce and slice of bread. Note: Kitchen CLOSES for orders of meals at 3:00 pm on weekdays. Very vintage with great entree presentation. I love the quiet areas with single seating if you prefer coffee only while working or reading. This cafe has a boho and a one of a kind vintage feel. Nice crowd with people of all ages and a friendly staff. Very unique bakery desserts but Priced equal to most specialty coffees. Self seating with payment and order in advance on an I pad. Choose your own table and food is served to you! A large menu to choose from. Seafood entrees would be nice for vegetarians. Even a tuna or shrimp plate with soup and salad. One REQUEST.... PLEASE serve HOT specialty coffees in different cups or add a cover to keep them HOT. My pistachio goes cold well before I finish my meal so I skip dessert for that reason. Perhaps offer a refill. Ice is needed near water dispenser. Truly a diamond in the rough! I highly recommend pistachio coffee, cafe, and everything within it.

Wonderful selection of baklava and similar pastries. We ordered a coffee and I had a specialty coffee and we ordered 3 of the various pastries. It was more than $30. I did not ask the price on the pastries prior to ordering- so that's on me. This has the feel of a local stop and regulars so if you're in the area it's worth checking out.

Shearwater Coffee Roasters

As the address might indicate, Shearwater Coffee Roasters lies in a small industrial complex that…read morehouses small and medium-sized businesses. This location is where the Shearwater beans are actually roasted (in 20lb batches, which counts as "really small" in the coffee industry). When I came by, I received a friendly and enthusiastic greeting from the personnel on site, who expressed no annoyance at being diverted from their normal wholesale activities. Shearwater has good beans, and those beans are roasted with care. I came in for some ground coffee that I could use while visiting Central Connecticut and walked away with a full pound of roasted coffee in the bean, 12oz of ground coffee, and a cold brew coffee to drink on my way back. The cold brew was delicious, and I liked the ground coffee (Honduras, I think) as well. The unground coffee made its way down to Philadelphia, where it's giving great pleasure to its recipients. Although Shearwater has espresso machines and some pour-over equipment on site, only the cold brew was available to retail customers like me. That was fair enough, but still somehow disappointing. If you're around Trumbull and are looking for some excellent coffee to take home, head directly to Shearwater without passing Go. Check their hours before you do, though; note for example that they close at 2PM on Fridays.

That being said, they always have at least one coffee brewing. On this early weekday afternoon, I got a 12 ounce of the Running Rapids (usually their cold brew) for $3.19. As other Yelpers have mentioned, there's no milk or sugar, leading to a pure and complex coffee experience. After letting it cool a bit, it was very deep and flavorful. It was nice to see a bit of the operation since the space is open. There are a few shelves with coffee accessories and a few stools for perching.
