So, how to begin? I…read morelove coffee, my wife loves coffee, and for many years we have preferred to drink it hot and black. We are far from being kids any more so the need for sugar and milk/cream to mask the sometimes burnt or bitter taste no longer fits with our health and longevity goals, In the past, we drank coffee for the delightful effects of caffeine and we still do! However, about five years ago we discovered the world of specialty coffee and that was a revelation. We now drink coffee for the taste, the taste shaped by growing region, bean variety, soil, altitude, and a competent roaster. The main issue with seeking out such delicious coffees is affordability. Today, you can order all kinds of exotic specialty coffees from many fine roasters throughout the world and we still do. We just didn't want to go broke! What we needed was to find a local coffee roaster who could supply us with diverse, high quality coffee beans at a reasonable cost. We have found that roaster and it is King David Coffee Roasters located in Nashua, NH. We buy only whole bean, light roasted coffee from King David. Our favorites so far are: Organic Fair Trade Peru, Costa Rica Tarrazu, Ethiopian Harrah, and Tanzania Peaberry. We drink those coffees on a daily basis, but do stray every now and then and buy pricier coffees from other quality roasters. We do like our coffee! Since discovering King David we have been quite pleased with the quality of their beans and their value pricing. King David also stocks several dark roasted coffees. We don't drink dark roast, we don't like dark roast, we don't buy dark roast, so we withhold judgement on those coffees. King David does offer an espresso blend which we haven't tried, but our friend who we referred to King David bought their espresso blend and reported it made a very delicious espresso. King David is located upstairs in an older industrial/mill building on Bridge Street in Nashua. If you have the opportunity to visit them, you should - the atmospherics are quite charming, heavy beams, high ceilings, heavy doors, it's all there. The King David space is quite large and the center of attention is their Diedrich coffee roaster. You'll also be greeted by the owner/operator/roaster Carolyn Whitehouse. Whenever I drop in to pick up my beans she is there, and always busy with roasting, packaging, sales, etc. Sometimes there is a second person helping with production tasks but Carolyn is the entrepreneur carrying the heavy daily responsibilities. If you're lucky, you'll be there during a roasting session - ah, the Smokey coffee aromas are so wonderful. If you're very, very lucky, you'll be there during a maple coffee or maple popcorn production run. What a sweet and wonderful aroma! On those days, Carolyn hands you your bag of beans and that aroma is carried out of the building with that bag. It stays with you in your vehicle, gently fading away during your drive home! Of course, you could always skip the visit to King David, order your beans online through their website and avoid the entire sensory experience. Your beans will be delivered to your house via express mail - efficient but not nearly so memorable! King David offers frequent discounts on their offerings. You can check out their offerings through their website www.kingdavidcoffee.com They also have a Facebook page. We take advantage of King David's sales, buying several pounds each time with free shipping. We vacuum pack the beans in individual doses, and keep them in the freezer. This works out very well for us, as we are never out of fresh beans. If you are an avid coffee drinker you really should check out King David Coffee Roasters. Find them on their website, order a bag (ground or whole bean, your choice). Give them a try. These are good people, providing a great product at a fair price. If you love coffee as much as we do - you can't go wrong!

I wanted breakfast, they had good choices, but I chose a chicken salad sandwich with lettuce, tomatoes and bacon. It came with two pickles and some chips.

I would definitely come back.

What a great place in the area for coffee and pastries! I…read morerecently moved to the area and have loved trying everything in the area. I've eyed Recreo for a while and stopped in with a friend to visit, and we were so impressed! We got a pumpkin latte and a lavender matcha, the latter of which is on their summer menu. They knocked both out of the park - so flavorful and delicious! We both tend to prefer sweeter drinks, but we had a perfect balance of flavor with our coffee/matcha. My friend also got a mixed berry scone, which was solid as well but he found it to be a little dry. I would definitely look forward to trying a pastry in the future - I was eyeing their cookies, but wasn't feeling it that morning. I am so happy I live so close and will definitely be back! The baristas were all so kind and personable - in addition to making great drinks, they truly connected with each customer and everyone seemed so happy to be there. We sat inside with all the pollen outside, but the outdoor patio nearby was ADORABLE. Makes sense that it was full when we got there!

I am a big dark roast fan but the americano allowed the flavors from the beans to come through more. I'm not sure of their other drinks but at least I found something I enjoy. This location is a counter in the lobby of an office building and as a result there's a lot of seating which could be good for meeting up with people and also getting some work done. I don't hate it since it's so hard to find somewhere to sit in Boston but the Seaport office buildings do an ok job of offering a free space to sit in the lobby.

I got a cortado with maple brown sugar, and you can definitely tell they roast their espresso in-house -- bright and a little acidic but balanced with the syrup.

We also grabbed a strawberry pop tart cookie that was pretty bussin. Staff was genuinely kind and seemed to love being there, which always makes the place feel better.

We were welcomed in and helped super quickly despite being almost closing time, and still got to enjoy some fresh-made, delicious drinks. Their menu offers a variety of traditional options plus a couple fun, unique twists from their flavor syrups to their seasonal specials. (Even if the particular matcha i had wasn't super strong, the caramel banana syrup was INCREDIBLE and made the drink completely worthwhile, so I would highly recommend!) Needless to say, everything we tried was a big hit. Not only would I be more than happy to make the trip to enjoy another of their matcha combos, but I'd come back also for clean, spacious, and calm working atmosphere (luckily there's another location closer to me in Boston too)! I'm so glad I got to knock this cute and fun cafe off my list, and I'm even more excited to come back again!

This place is a whole vibe. Sleek and coastal and somehow also whimsical, Little Wolf is a great space to have your morning recharge. They make their own variety of flavored syrups, ranging from the standard vanilla to a botanical blend called Bouquet. Most importantly, their beans are incredible. The Finca that they served in my drink was a tasty lighter roast, which enticed me to buy a bag (similar roast, not the same). This price is not very clear but it is $28 (out of sight out of mind, I guess). Of course great coffee requires great baristas. Looking forward to coming back!
