    The Moonrise Cafe is super cute. The service I received was great. I enjoy when I walk in and I'm greeted and im given my due attention. The Moonrise has an excellent choice of fresh brew teas. They build the bag for you and everything. I highly recommend giving this spot a try! You'll be hooked.

    Randomly stopped here while on a thrifting trip. Amazing iced maple latte, matcha was perfect! The women taking the orders was SO SWEET. Had the breakfast panini - delicious

    Adorable little cafe nestled near the North Haven Green. I was so excited to find a chai that was made with red rooibos (caffeine free)! It's a great spot to meet up with friends or get some work done. We didn't get the opportunity to try food, but will update our review when we do! Will definitely be going back. @thesidedishers

    I have come into this cafe countless times for food delivery and never for myself. I have wanted to try it and today I finally did!! Staff is always friendly and make you feel welcome and important. Tip: check the menu online since all the items are not listed on the board! I found Bruce's Protein Stack doing that. I wanted a no bread breakfast and this was IT. This plate comes with 2 eggs, chipotle sauce, buffalo ranch sauce, cheddar cheese, bacon, sausage, and Canadian bacon. Highly recommended. The sauce is not that spicy and goes SO WELL with the meats and cheese! I took it to-go and it was surprisingly simple to cut and eat with plastic cutlery. Prices are very reasonable my breakfast was $9.66 for the stack and a medium coffee. Oh! The coffee! It's amazing! Just got a hot black coffee and the taste is incredible. Full bodied and not at all bitter. Now I have to go back for a panini at lunch!!

    We had the tiger chai, macchiato, and London fog for drinks. All were excellent quality. The tiger chai was so different- I would highly recommend. We also had the glorious morning muffin and I could eat 10 of them that's how good they are. The (manager?) gentleman was so nice explaining to us the teas and origins of them. Love the ambiance and natural vibe of this place! A go to from now on!

    Got a sausage, egg, and cheese on a bagel and a latte this morning. Both were excellent. I always try to stop in when I'm in the area.

    Great sandwich place. The only downside is they close the grill or food service 30 minutes before closing.

We tried to get in yesterday but it was super crowded and we didn't want to wait amongst a lot of people (too much sickness going around). However, I wish we had gone, because our breakfast wasn't anywhere as good as today. I started with a Carmel latte which was really good. I had the croissant French toast which was utterly amazing! I have to say that I am NOT a breakfast person. I'm not a fan of eggs, but I will eat them and I hate to start the day with a sugar bomb! However, the croissant French toast was a true delight. It came topped with fresh, not frozen sugary stuff, beautiful juicy strawberries, a nice light whipped cream, and a not so sugary chocolate sauce on the side. It did have a lot of whipped cream so I loved that to the side. It was served with syrup but I didn't use any. The flavor of the croissant with the strawberries was enough for me. I barely dipped it in the chocolate. It was delectable! I've also had their Irish Benny on another trip which was amazing and the pumpkin pancakes. There is NO other breakfast place where I cannot make a decision because there are so many delicious items to choose from. And, I know that anything I choose is going to be utterly amazing. Their portions are big and their prices are very fair for what your get. I felt like I had a whole pint of strawberries on my croissant. My husband had the meat lovers omelet with oatmeal. He said everything was perfect. The staff is very friendly and very attentive. This is a typical breakfast place. It's not fancy but friendly and clean. And everyone seems happy! The kind of place I like. You have to get here early or you'll have a wait. I say the wait is well worth it. We went at 8:30 on a holiday and were able to be seated immediately. That's the first time that's happened though. I want to try their lunch, but their breakfast is so amazing, I would probably order breakfast for lunch which is something I NEVER do! If we had this place near us (we're from Philly), it would be the death of me! I'd be going all the time.

    We were staying in Hamden for the weekend and since we don't know the area, did a quick search and…read morefound a couple of options. Brian stone was closer but I skipped over it based on the rating and the pictures of the decor. We drove a little farther to State street Cafe and it was too busy, so we drove to Brown Stone. Stepping in reminded me of "The Pantry" in LA. A little run down, stuck in time with the decor, but a recognized local favorite and food go to for those that know. Brown Stone had the same vibe and feel as soon as we went In. I loved seeing the locals and the staff immediately greeted us and attended to us, bringing some coffee. Breakfast items are relatively simple, nothing fancy here, nor were we looking for it. I just wanted a good meal. I ordered the avocado and ham omelette special and my wife the egg and Belgian waffle. Breakfast came out quick, hot, and good! I was pleasantly surprised, and should not have been so judgy. Like the saying goes, don't judge a book by its cover. Looking forward to going back tomorrow morning. I'll take some photos to add to this later.
