    Yummy bagel with dill cream cheese
    Elaine F.

    Forget Dunkin. Keep driving right past McD's. Head for Rise Up Coffee on Route 50 East of Cambridge. They have a really nice indoor & outdoor spaces, great coffee, and lots of food choices to go with it. I enjoyed an everything bagel with mine.

    For years, have sporadically purchased their whole bean coffee at DC area natural foods stores. Was excited to finally check out the storefront and coffee shop in person. And, lemme tell ya - was not disappointed. For starters, the vibe. It's just perfect. The exterior has some cozy & hip seating. The interior is inviting, rustic + modern + artsy. I loved the decor. All of it. Even the bathroom was amazing and a sight for sore eyes. It's a place you could hang out for a bit and truly enjoy yourself. The seating area is its own area a little tucked away from the ordering area. There are plenty of seats as well. It felt spacious to me. Loved the layout and the black/white graphic theme. The coffee was wonderful. Ordered an Americano (iced) which I don't normally do but tried something different. No additives - just the coffee and milk. It was just right - not too strong, not too much milk. Loved the cup and the cool black/white straw. Those little touches make a coffee lover feel special. Topped if off with an egg sandwich (just egg on a buttered biscuit). No complaints. And I'm one picky gal. The biscuit was delicious. The sandwich tasted fresh and wasn't too greasy. Just right. Service was prompt and friendly. I highly recommend this coffee shop. And, you can buy their signature beans on site. A nice lil' bonus right there.

    This place was endearing. Somehow they seemed to incorporate every aspect of the surrounding environment inside where it kinda gave country and beachy all at once. Not only was the place cute but the food was really good as well. The coffee was actually insane, in the best way, and the acai bowl was agreeable. I would definitely recommend

    I happened to be on my way home from the Eastern Shore one Sunday and decided to stop by. My cousin posted about Rise Up a few times on social media and so I became curious. However, I'm not sure why because I'm not a coffee drinker. When I arrived, parking was a breeze. Upon entering the building, I was a little confused because it was so crowded inside. Where does the line end?...where does it begin? After asking people if they were ordering or waiting for their order, I finally found my place. I ordered a breakfast sandwich which consisted of bacon, egg, and cheese on a homemade biscuit and an iced chai latte. I still had to wait a while to get my food amongst the crowd. I found everything to be satisfying but nothing to shout about. I would say that a win was the bacon on my sandwich. I like my bacon crispy, especially when it's on a sandwich. Rise Up did it right. Chai latte was refreshing. I could see myself returning if in the area although I'm not in a rush to do so.

    We have been in town for 1 night and have already been here twice! The coffee smoothies are delicious on a hot day & the fruit smoothies can be customized with a variety of fruit. For breakfast we had avocado toast, the Rise Up burrito, and the banana splat bowl. They were helpful in customizing the avocado toast for our kiddo too. Food came out fast and was delicious. The cafe au lait was also great - the coffee is clearly high quality. There is plenty of space inside and out and the space has a modern vibe with both bar seating and big communal tables. Everyone was friendly and welcoming and I'm sure we will be back a few more times before heading out of town.

    I ordered online at 12:45ish my order was supposed to be ready at 1:05pm I was NOT GIVEN my food until 1:15. I see staff members walking around with their hands in their pockets and my food is still not ready! Come to find out my food was on the counter the entire time packed ready to be picked up but instead it was left to get cold! While staff is on their phones my food is getting cold and melting. UNACCEPTABLE I am so disappointed! I also noticed the lady that was giving out the drink put stickers on the lids when she gave them to other customers but mine she did not! I had enough time to observe these details since I was inside for 15 minutes!!!!!!! I ordered 1- Açaí Bowl - Original 1- The Happy Cow - Vegan Burrito added retried beans - barely taste any other ingredients only refried beans - TASTE LIKE MUSH!!!!!!! Disgusting!!!!! 1- Hot chocolate with coconut milk - BLAND not sweet at all! Nothing special

    Rise up burrito
    Toni R.

    Rise up has been my favorite ever since I've lived in Salisbury a few years ago. I've since moved away but have driven back just for this breakfast! It's also become a mandatory stop every time I'm on the eastern shore. Yes, that's how good it is. The location is Cambridge is just as great as I remember. I took some of my friends and sure enough, I didn't just hype it up. The coffee and food lived up to my excitement. So happy to see that they had good business despite the pandemic. There was still a line for coffee this morning! For food -- I recommend getting the burrito and açaí bowl Drinks -- well, I don't think I've ever had a bad drink here :)

    Sunrise burrito with turkey bacon and avocado and an iced vanilla latte.

    Sunrise burrito with turkey bacon and avocado and an iced vanilla latte. Second day back because we loved it so much! We did add the tots on day 1 and they are delicious too. Highly recommend ordering online ahead of time as there were a lot of people waiting.

    The coffee here was delicious! Can't go wrong with anything you order. Even though we went when it Was busy, the drinks and food we ordered came out very quickly. Such a cute spot.

    Rise Up breakfast burrito (eggs, chorizo, cheese, avocado) 5/5!
    Jana H.

    Great spot for good coffee and tasty food! Their Americano had really good flavor. A lot of tasty food options and really enjoyed the Rise Up breakfast burrito. Wait time for food was a little long (it was busy that morning, or maybe always that busy), but the burrito was definitely 5/5. Super tasty, toasted, and great ratio of eggs to meat to avocado to cheese. Great atmosphere as well. Would go back!

    I had no idea there was a Rise Up coffee cafe to the place I was visiting! I'm like.. I MUST TRY. I usually buy Rise Up coffee beans around home (DC area) and to actually try it in a cafe is exciting. I just ordered the iced coffee, to compliment the warm day that was ahead. And the taste is satisfactory to the taste buds. The only thing I didn't really like is the paper straws because it tends to.. whats the right word.. tend to soak the drink in, which causes difficulty to continue using the straw to drink the beverage If I were to visit the area again, I would deff come by again to get my coffee fix! I would recommend this place to the coffee lovers out there or if you just want coffee, head over to Rise Up!

    Everything bagel, bacon, sausage and eggs

    Christopher's Kitchen is hands down the best restaurant in Cambridge and something you do not find…read morejust anywhere. The menu is really fun and inventive, and everything we tried was excellent. There was not a single dish that disappointed. The craft cocktails were also a lot of fun and clearly well thought out. On top of that, the atmosphere is really romantic, which makes it a perfect spot for a date night. If you are looking for a unique place with great food and drinks, this is it.

    The food was delicious, but the rest was a little off. First, the food. We stuck to appetizers:…read moreBrussels sprouts, mac and cheese, and the crab dip flatbread. All were excellent. I particularly liked the sweet corn on the flatbread. We also had cocktails- an old fashioned for me and a mojito for my friend - they were fine. The theme of the restaurant is Edgar Allen Poe, and they just went way too far with the literary idea. The menu was long-winded and confusing. You have to read each item carefully and try to decipher what you'll be getting. For example, the Aristocrat is "a feast for a king or his court, flame-forged angus blend cloaked in American cheese and enthroned upon shattered lettuce...". Huh? Is that a cheesesteak with shredded lettuce? I thought it was absurd and funny. My hangry friend did not see the humor. We both agreed this really good restaurant is doing itself a huge disservice by confusing customers. First rule of selling anything is to make it easy for the customer to want what you're selling. We did ask our server their favorites on the menu. They named a few appetizers and said they mostly stick to the less expensive items. This is supposed to be an upscale restaurant, and I would expect the staff to be well-educated on the food. I don't blame the server for not forking over the cash for a variety of menu items. It's a pricey place. But don't they prepare the staff to answer questions about the food by letting them taste everything? I thought it was standard practice to prepare tasting portions for waitstaff. This restaurant is currently too tied to their theme. With a little editing, this could be a great place. I hope more people give them a chance, offer constructive feedback, and that the management is open to suggestion.
