Pinot Grigio

This was such an amazing experience The whole ambiance and atmosphere was incredible The service and food to die for!

Db panini
Kim V.

We got lunch at this delightful cafe. I've been wanting to check this place out. It's more than a cafe, they serve delicious sandwiches, pizza, beer, burgers, and premade grab and go food. A few of the grab and go items I noticed were, chicken Parmesan, lasagna, soups, salads, ice cream, and cookies. They also offer pizza and pasta making classes; and catering for weddings and parties. I got The DB Panini which had turkey, bacon, onion, lettuce, tomato, mayo, cheese, and pepper relish; all hot pressed under bread, this was really good with a pickle and chips as sides. My toddler had grilled cheese and my husband had the Little Oak burger, which they both liked. It was a nice day so we sat out on the patio. The inside was very cozy and clean. I can't wait to try out their coffee and breakfast sandwiches soon.

first of all the food service was spectacular. l really enjoyed the great service at little oak cafe. The ambiance and the atmosphere was amazing, food was out really quickly, and my meal looked/tasted amazing. definitely recommend as new place to try

The DB Panini

What a spot! Stopped here with my honey on a whim looking for a quick bite to eat for lunch and were so impressed. We split the DB panini and bbq chicken jalapeño pizza. So much flavor and spice just exploding in our mouths, I nearly forgot where I was for a moment! Now, don't let the name fool you - little oak cafe may be small but the food is mighty and service is QUICK! As the old adage goes, it's not about the size of the tree, rather it's about the size of the nuts...little oak, the fruits of your tree just produced two new repeat customers! Bravo!

So many tasty options! I ended up having the breakfast burrito. Lovely outside patio to eat on, such friendly service, we loved it!!

Roast beef panini with a side of homemade pasta salad
Rei P.

We finally had the chance to stop in and experience Little Oak Cafe and were not disappointed! Located in the back of Canton Village, Little Oak Cafe is literally a hidden gem with dynamite food and service. We stopped in for lunch and decided on Roast Beef and Ham and Cheddar paninis, both of which were excellent. Portions are pretty large and the prices are great! We came in hungry and both of us were actually full after eating half of our sandwiches, but we just HAD to finish them. However, we could've easily had leftovers, had we chosen to. We each opted for a side of macaroni salad, and that too, was delicious. Service was awesome and we were asked more than a few times how we were doing and if we needed anything, which was very nice. Little Oak Cafe has a spacious dining area and tables are spaced out for social distancing purposes. They also have extensive takeout offerings, which we will have to check out the next time we're in. We will definitely return again!

Nice cozy interior

Visiting Canton CT to pick my Posche which was getting repaired at a shop there (yes it is very far from where I live), me and my daughter decided to check out the local culinary scene. The reviews of this cafe seemed intriguing so we decided to drop be. The place is in a huge complex with plenty of parking, however they are not very visible from the main rd. Inside they have a very laid back style with chairs and table arranged on the front and side and a niceblittle bar in the middle. There is outside seating too, but it was too cold to sit outside so we stayed indoors. Ordering was simple, you select what you want at the counter, and then they bring the food to your table. I opted for the roast beef sandwich, which came with a side of macaroni pasta. Both were really good! It seemed a popular place as even though it wad 3pm, there were families coming in. Will definitely visit them, next time my Porsche has issues!!

Coffee tea offerings
Nancy F.

Cute little cafe. Great offerings of teas and baronet coffees. We went for breakfast - menu very small but all sounds delicious. Multigrain bread delicious. My potatoes were undercooked but I like crispy. Food is served on rectangular metal trays and utensils are individually packaged disposable units. Staff extremely welcoming!!

Little Oak has a varied menu, so depending on the time of day, you can satisfy your hunger with a choice of breakfast sandwiches, sandwiches, paninis, pizza, salads, or "Grab and Go" entrees from their display cases. We walked in Sunday afternoon and ordered two sandwiches to go. Kelly, the young lady behind the counter, was very polite and friendly and took our order efficiently. I ordered a Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich as a wrap ($10.95). It was a very generous sandwich, loaded with chicken chunks, lettuce, tomato, pickles, spicy mayo, and Nashville hot spice. It was excellent, and definitely had the slight degree of the heat I expected. Sandwiches are served with a pickle and a choice of chips or macaroni salad. The pickle was a giant dill spear, and the macaroni salad was very good too. There were a few tables of diners eating their lunch in the dining room, and we noticed the tables have been thinned out to comply with social distancing. The floorspace of the dining room is quite a bit roomier than it was for the previous tenant here. As we waited for our food to be cooked to order, we read about pasta and pizza making classes they run at night for groups of six or more. That seems pretty interesting !! All in all, we had a very satisfactory experience on our first visit to Little Oak.

These days it's hard to find a cafe that isn't overpriced and better than just average. But Toasted Oat hits the high points of quality of cook on the food, even if the ingredients may not all be top notch. They have breakfast sandwiches, bowls and scrambles, as well as regular sandwiches, salads and burritos. We enjoyed the regular breakfast sandwich with spinach and cheese (subbed the meat but wish the spinach had been cooked in - $7) and the breakfast scramble which included 2 eggs, 3 veggies, cheese, protein all mixed/cut up together, as well as hash brown (didn't exactly look homemade?) and toast ($11). Everything was served in to-go containers so the looks weren't the best but makes sense given the place and that most people probably don't dine in. You order at the counter and they bring you your food. Everything takes time to come out so you know it's done to order. They also have some coffee and tea. They had a few coffee cake items in a glass display but didn't look homemade either. It feels like a cafe should have more selection of pastries but again bother me. Service was friendly and patient. The actual location isn't that great visually either. There is one longer table and a few smaller ones, but it's not a big place and not decorated to impress (fine by me!) It is located in a small nondescript plaza with an Indian market. Small parking lot. Wish this small business well!

That's because when you pull into the shopping plaza.....you don't see it. But if you circle around to the right, you'll see it on the side of the strip mall's buildings. And trust me, this spot is definitely worth hunting down to experience a standout breakfast or lunch. We walked in a little before 1:00 yesterday and found a table for two in the back left corner of the dining room, so we had a good view of the entire room. I have to tell ya, the place was packed! Breakaway closes at 3:00 every day except Sunday (2:00), and there were breakfast and lunch menus out, plus a few daily specials. My wife went with a "William's Ham Panini" ($17) with thin sliced ham, bacon, caramelized onions, cheddar and honey mustard on a grilled panini. We both were struck at how much ham was piled onto her sandwich. She had a few choices for a side dish and put her nickel down on potato salad. I went with The JT Salad ($16). The menu says it's been their "best-selling salad 25 years and counting". It was a big portion of mixed greens served with house balsamic dressing, grape tomatoes, gorgonzola cheese, and grilled chunks of teriyaki glazed chicken breast. It was stellar, with plenty of that yummy cheese and chicken. The only sour note with our lunch was a rather steep $4.25 for a glass of iced tea that was half-filled with ice. The food was very good and a decent amount of leftovers came home with us for another day. I was unexpectedly impressed by how crowded Bistro was on a random Monday. I bet you'll be too.

I've been visiting Tribos Peri Peri since it first opened and have also ordered takeout and…read moreDoorDash multiple times. One thing I've appreciated is seeing how much they've improved over time. In the beginning, the food quality and consistency weren't always where they needed to be, but they have made significant improvements and have become much more reliable. The peri peri chicken is flavorful, well-seasoned, and cooked well, and the sides are generally fresh and satisfying. Whether dining in or ordering takeout, my recent experiences have been consistently positive. The staff is friendly, and service is generally smooth. The only minor issue I've noticed is that they occasionally run out of certain menu items, especially during busy periods. However, that hasn't taken away from the overall experience. It's great to see a local business continue to improve and grow. Overall, Tribos Peri Peri offers good food, solid service, and a much stronger experience than when they first started. I'd happily recommend it and will continue to return.

"But I got my head in the clouds like Zeus Swear I can see…read morethe game from a bird's-eye view" (Eminem) What on earth does peri peri mean? Well peri peri is a fiery little African Bird's-eye chili whose name literally means "hot pepper" in Bantu. Tribos Peri Peri in Avon is the regional chain's eighth location (and the only one in CT), with the other seven in MA, MD, and NJ. Their cuisine pays homage to that incendiary African Bird's-eye chili pepper in their Portugese, African, and Southeast Asian flavored chicken dishes. You can have your pick of wings, tenders, platters, and even a whole chicken with or without sides. Some of the sides and appetizers have a Mediterranean flair such as hummus, pita breads, couscous, falafel, etc. The non-chicken lovers can get other dishes with lamb, paneer cheese, falafel, etc. Now, when you order chicken you have to decide on your tolerance for a heat level. I ordered three freshly grilled tenders and needed to select one of their six spice levels for the sauce the tenders get bathed in. Level One is plain, Level Two is Lemon & Herb, Level Three is Mild, Level Four is Medium, Five is Hot, and Six dares you to be Very Hot. I went with Level Four Medium, and I gotta tell ya, my chicken tenders were very spicy. Oh... and the chicken itself? FANTASTIC - freshly grilled, large, moist and perfect. Soon after the tenders were delivered to my table, two more things appeared- a squeeze bottle of white and red sauce. The smiling server said if my chicken was too spicy I could cool it down with the white garlic sauce. But if they weren't spicy enough, I could increase the firepower with some peri peri sauce. Of course I had to try the peri peri sauce and lets just say I was very grateful I just tried an eye dropper's worth of it. Along with the chicken, I ordered an amazing side of grilled corn on the cob. So the food was great, but how about the service? My experience was fantastic. The gent who took my order was friendly, conversational, and helpful. And when he brought out those two sauces, he was playfully smiling when he talked about the heat level of that Peri Peri sauce. What a nice addition to the Farmington Valley.

They give you a cup and you fill it up at the coffee station. The place was clean and the cashier was friendly and efficient. The second time, I ordered another hot coffee and a half chipotle chicken sandwich and broccoli and cheddar soup. I originally wanted the breakfast sandwich version with eggs on it, but it was 11 ish and they didn't have any eggs. The cashier asked their coworker, which I assumed was the manager if they had anymore eggs; he responded with a snarky "NO", I thought that was odd. We didn't know what exactly time breakfast ended, no snarkiness needed. The sandwich seemed a little skimpy but the flavor was good. The broccoli and cheddar soup was good; this also came with an apple or chips. Overall, it's average and a typical Panera Bread, nothing to write home about.

The salt level of the soup was off the charts - it was unpalatable, unnatural feeling ( way too thick ) and the noodles were terrible. They tasted like they had absorbed the salt from the salt soup. Prices are bad for what's received ; this stuff is obviously some manufactured slop that comes prepared out of a factory, not actual food. A can of Progresso chicken noodle tastes a hundred times better than this stuff. The soda I ordered was fine. Tasted like soda, fizzy, and cold. That was the last time I ever went there.
