They roast their coffee in house I believe which is a dime a dozen these days. Overall, the pastry was OK. It was also a rather small piece and I think it was $6? A little expensive for what you get considering it's an awfully simple dessert. It would be a great place to go with a friend to spend some time, perhaps I'll give the coffee a shot next time.

They were out of the eggnog latte so I got a chai latte. The cinnamon was perfect and it wasn't too sweet. The decor is thought-provoking and adds to the charm.

This is actually a repeat-spot every time we come to Portsmouth. It's a cozy cafe/bar with…read morereasonably-priced drinks, and events hosted here make the space feel like part of the community. There's also a couch/lounge area in the back that you can enjoy when it's not too packed. On the flip side, the beverages and food felt pretty average to me. I've had their mocha and hot chocolate, neither of which hit the spot and I couldn't quite finish. The cookies are also mediocre and don't get warmed up before serving. I am glad that the total typically comes out to under $5 though! Overall, I'd treat this as a third space and not a culinary destination.

I ordered an everything bagel, toasted with scallion cream creese and a lemonade. The lemonade tasted fresh and hit the spot. The everything bagel was too salty for me, but still good, and the scallion cream cheese was generously spread and delicious. A few of my friends ordered sandwiches and one got the mac & cheese, which was also good. The seating area was pleasant, and I believe there were also a few tables outside as well. They do have a restroom for customer use. Prices are reasonable and food is good - I'd go back!

I absolutely love their drinks with marshmallow fluff in them - the fluff melts into the drink and makes the whole thing so delicious. The cafe is in two parts - when you enter, there is a counter to order at and various store items available for purchase. After ordering and receiving your drink, you can go through a narrow hallway to a larger seating area. There is a good amount of seating, but it can sometimes get busy. I have worked from this cafe before and I'd say it may be better to work alone than work with friends if you're going here since some of the tables are a little small and will be tight with two laptops. Service is very quick and the workers are very friendly. The drink pickup can be a little awkward since you pickup where you ordered and sometimes there's a line of people you have to sort of go through but I've never found it to be too much of a problem.

The vibe was definitely reminiscent of going to have coffee in Istanbul. Every last drip of espresso was well worth the walk. The baristas were very friendly, welcoming, and were very attentive and were prepared to answer whatever questions you might have at a moment's notice. The merch was really cute, the turkish delights were reasonably priced, and there was plenty of culture to go around. I am definitely going to be coming back here whenever I am in town again from Los Angeles. Thank you!

I've been going to Societe for years now, and honestly, I don't know what I'd do without their…read moreapothecary teas. I'm a mom to 4-year-old twins, and medicine has been one of the hardest parts of parenting. I've never felt good about giving them over-the-counter cold meds--too many weird ingredients I can't pronounce, and they never seem to help much anyway. But finding natural remedies that actually work? That's been a whole other struggle. Every fall, I make my annual trip to Societe to stock up on my go-to teas: Throat Ease, Get Well, Breathe, Fever Break, Be Well Immuni Tea, and Digest Ease. The first five are always in my pantry. When my kids start sniffling or coughing, I don't even think twice--I make them a warm cup of tea. It's so much easier than fighting with them to take some nasty-tasting syrup that ends up all over their shirt or spit out halfway through. These teas work fast, they taste good, and I feel better knowing I'm helping their little bodies heal naturally. Now let me talk about Digest Ease, because this one... wow. If you've been through potty training, you know the constipation phase is brutal. My daughter was in so much pain, scared to go, crying, and I felt helpless. Doctors kept recommending milk of magnesia and other stuff that just didn't feel right. I tried everything--fiber, prune juice, homeopathic drops--and nothing gave her consistent relief. Digest Ease was the only thing that helped. It's gentle, it works fast, and it gave my daughter real relief without the drama. I've told every mom friend I know about it, and they've all had the same experience. If you're a parent who's tired of chemical-filled meds and just wants something safe, natural, and effective--these teas are it. They're not just products. They're part of how I care for my kids. I'll never go another season without them.
