This place has changed a lot, and not really for the better. The music is purely rap and it's extremely loud, which makes it hard to relax or even have a conversation. The vibe just feels overwhelming instead of welcoming. The coffee has also gone downhill severely. It doesn't taste the same as it used to, and the quality just isn't there anymore. One positive was that I was offered a sample of the pressed juices, which I appreciated. That was a nice touch and good customer service. The ambiance is very, very, very dark and not really cozy. It feels more bare than inviting. There are only tables and chairs and a single couch, but the couch isn't facing the TV and there aren't any lounge chairs. If you're sitting on the couch trying to have a conversation with a friend, you basically have to turn sideways the whole time, which isn't comfortable at all. The layout just doesn't feel thought out for relaxing or hanging out. Overall, the atmosphere could definitely use some improvement to make it more comfortable and welcoming. read more

Not just a juice place! We received a big welcome when we walked inside. The decor was warm and cool and very clean. All of the food was so fresh and very flavorful. My spouse and I ordered Power Rice Bowls. He had Spicy California Shrimp and mine was Grilled Honey Chicken. This place is such a little gem and we plan to return every time that we visit the area. read more

I've been here a few times. However today was my first time enjoying lunch inside! I will say they were very attentive, and offered suggestions. I settled on the lunch turkey blt and lemonade. One of the servers came out and asked me if my lemonade was too bitter, and she replaced it for me. My turkey blt was amazing, but if you don't like onions, request no onions. I'll be going back to try more things. read more

My brother told me about this place and it's a hidden gem for sure! It was a bit slow as there was only one employee working, but the drinks crafted were flavorful and well executed. I got an iced cookie butter latte and I wish I had gotten a large. Smooth, rich, velvety. That drink was top tier and I wish I lived closer to get it often. Not too sweet, but not bitter at all. Parking was a little frustrating as the location is a bit odd. We had to circle to park in front, but even then, you may not get a spot because there are very few. The inside was well decorated and aesthetically pleasing. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because it was insanely hot inside. I left the shop with sweat pooling down my back. read more

I have been here twice so far. Prices are a tad high but I think that can be expected with coffee shops/cafes. I first went during their soft opening phase and had a cold coffee and a chicken Caesar wrap. These were just okay. Portions were quite small for the price but everything tasted fine. The second time I had the French kiss hot coffee and this was delicious. I would go back again just for this. The cafe is adorable and has bar seating and a couple tables. There is also a comfy sofa seating area that is cozy for reading or just having a coffee. The service could have been a little better. The person at the register could have been a little more welcoming but that is just my opinion. read more

My review is for takeout (via Door Dash). I can't speak for the atmosphere or service, since I wasn't in the store. I ordered a turkey avocado sandwich, strawberry matcha and a berry smoothie. $14.50 ($13.00 on their pick-up menu) for a very basic turkey & avocado sandwich that should be no more than $7-$8, plus a couple of dollars markup for delivery. It's toasted white bread (you can select other sliced bread or a wrap) Two thin slices of pre-packaged, low quality turkey meat, a bit of smashed up avocado, lettuce, tomato, mayo. It's super super basic and wasn't even cut in half (had to do it myself). For comparison, you can get a pretty decent turkey sandwich at Panera for a couple $ less, and it comes with more & better quality turkey, aged cheddar, mixed greens, tomato, red onions, avocado on thick sliced sour dough. So... And I'm not even a Panera fan. This sandwich tasted like something you rushed to pack as lunch for yourself while you were hurrying out the door for work. I'm not sure how someone actually felt OK about signing off on this pricing, or actually, even the sandwich itself. You know, I was writing this review as I tried to eat the sandwich. And I couldn't keep eating it after a couple of bites. I ended up tossing most of it in the trash. This may be the first time I've ever been depressed over a sandwich. The strawberry matcha was fine-ish. It wasn't blended too well and I kept getting clumps of pasty matcha in the straw until I poured it into another cup and gave it a few violent shakes. It was serviceable. Needs more matcha flavor. Berry smoothie was bland and needed some type of sweetener. I didn't see that option when ordering. I added some of my own simple syrup to make it slightly sweet. Tasted much better after that. I'm pretty disappointed so far. I think there is room for improvement with the drinks. The cafe just needs to work on perfecting them. Train staff on technique and execution. Maybe add more customization options online - not sure how it's set up on the store. Work on perfecting the drinks. As for the sandwich, I'd advise removing it from the menu entirely. It's a lost cause. The food menu doesn't impress in general. Paninis and flatbreads might be a better option. I saw where the owner mentioned they used Uncle Ben's rice in a response to a review complaining about the rice bowl. Get better quality ingredients in bulk and not convenience items from the grocery store down the street. Also, better tea and hot cocoa options. Off the shelf, grocery store stuff ain't it. I understand the difficulty in opening a new business and smoothing out the bumps. I'd like this business to succeed, as this area of Suffolk needs nice things like this. I think a big mistake new businesses make, is buying cheap ingredients and overlooking whether or not menu items are actually necessary or make sense. You can get a basic (and much better) turkey avo sandwich anywhere. Create something special and unique, with quality ingredients. I'm really rooting for this business and I'm hoping they will take some suggestions to heart and strive to provide excellent brunch or breakfast items, and high quality drinks. As it stands, they need to do a lot of work. read more

Well that was disappointing. My first visit was so great that I was excited to take someone else here for my second visit. Walk in and there's one person working. She completely ignores us. I go to the restroom and leave my companion there waiting. The restroom is filthy. There's no toilet paper. The trashcan is overflowing. Go back and wait a total of 10 minutes before she finally acknowledges us. While waiting, she and the cook are arguing with another customer about her wrong order. The poor woman even shows them on an app what she ordered. They argued with her that she was wrong! I'm starting to get annoyed just listening. Finally the very same woman who was so friendly the first time I visited has had a personality transplant. She informs us that the milk on the counter is all the milk they have left. No big since I don't drink dairy anyways. Then she tells me that's ALL the milk they have and there are 4 cups ahead of me. 10am on a Friday morning. Valentine's Day and you are already out of milk? What the heck!? This is a new establishment. They need to figure this mess out quickly or they won't make it to the summer. Customers will go elsewhere. read more

My wife and I had noticed this place a few months ago and finally decided to stop in and give it a try. The atmosphere was inviting, well-decorated, and gave us high expectations for the food. Unfortunately, the experience went downhill once our meals arrived. We both ordered power bowls. The rice in my bowl tasted undercooked and had a sour flavor, while the salmon was extremely dry. I tried picking around the rice and even added yum yum sauce to the salmon, hoping it would help, but the food was so unpleasant that I eventually spit it out and threw the rest away. My wife ordered chicken in her bowl, and she found it to be bland, unseasoned, and just as dry. After seeing my reaction, she lost her appetite and didn't want to finish her meal either. In the end, we threw both meals away and went home to cook lunch ourselves. Overall, it was a disappointing experience and a waste of both time and money. We won't be returning. read more

I was excited to see this new coffee shop and tried the strawberry shortcake specialty latte. The strawberry flavor was good, but the espresso was hardly detectable. I also didn't care for the design of this coffee shop and found the seating uncomfortable, so I probably won't be back. read more

So today I had an itch while traveling in Suffolk for an açai bowl. Pressed Café showed up on my search. Rolled in and was met with a very sweet and kind Chantelle. God I hope I spelled her name right. She asked what I was looking for in a açai bowl and I said well what do y'all put in and I got the works. Super fresh fruit, solid açai base, and a friendly staff is always a rest for a repeat customer. I'll be back. read more

This place is a joke. Seriously, I truly believe the owner has no idea how to run a food service business, let alone a coffee shop i think the game plan here is to buy Swiss Miss hot chocolate, Uncle Bens Rice, and cheap Food Lion meats and charge ridiculous prices This place is a prime example of how to squeak out a profit through ridiculous markup. Cherry on top, the staff is rude and untrained. Don't judge the other businesses in this location by Pressed Cafe though...Catrina's is great. read more
