The Nitro Bar gets a lot of attention on social media so I think that can skew people's…read moreexpectations. At the end of the day, it's just a really solid coffee shop and that's exactly why I keep coming back. I can always count on my drink tasting the way I like it. The ratio of espresso, milk, ice and syrup is perfect, which isn't something every coffee shop gets right. I totally understand why some people think it's overhyped, but if you go in expecting a great cup of coffee with fun vibes instead of some life-changing experience, I think you'll really enjoy it. I've also always had a great experience with the employees. Everyone I've interacted with has been friendly, and even when the line is long, they have almost an assembly-line system that keeps things moving really quickly. I've tried the banana pudding, which was delicious, and their chocolate chip cookie was really good too. I love that they're always coming up with fun seasonal drinks and different flavor combinations to keep things interesting.

It's pretty easy to miss but you will likely see a line. I got The Newporter which was one of their specials. I had low expectations since pistachio syrup often tastes chemically to me. It tasted a bit watered down and the espresso wasn't super bold but I was surprised that the flavors actually came through, from the sweetness from the honey & pistachio and saltiness from the sea salt. Not the best but decent for the area!

They have a fun selection of unique drinks to get, a pretty aesthetic, and a great food menu. I fell in love with the flower bouquets in the gender neutral single stall restroom. There was a line out the door, but it went by pretty quickly. The baristas are kind and the music rocks. I tried the raspberry chocolate latte. I loved what a dessert-like drink it was. The bits of chocolate within the drink were my favorite. And the foam on top felt like the cherry on top! If you like trendy coffee shops, this is a fun visit.

We mentioned we were interested in trying Cru and he told us we wouldn't be disappointed. The next day we went and though there was still a line, it went quickly. We ordered the Irish Breakfast Burrito, a side of bacon and potato hash, a sugar cookie, an apple hand pie, and an orange juice. The burrito was big enough to share (which we did) and was delicious! Big chunks of corned beef, eggs, cheese and potatoes. Did not disappoint! The OJ was fresh squeezed and just right. The bacon and potato hash was good, but a bit salty. I would have liked more chunky potatoes, but that's just me, my sister enjoyed them and they were tasty. Their cookies (you definitely need to get one!) are cut in half and filled with a buttercream filling and then the end is dipped in chocolate. They were so soft and the amount of buttercream was just right, not making it overly sweet. And they had so many different flavors of cookies it was hard to decide on just one. The Apple hand pie was perfect! The crust was nice and flaky without falling apart. The apples had just the right sweetness. I really debated about getting the blueberry muffin because we already had so much food. I definitely missed out on that. The lady next to us got one and she said it was delicious. (We got ours to-go because we knew we wouldn't have room after breakfast). Parking can be hit or miss, we lucked out and found a spot in the small lot. There is paid parking in the larger lot next door or you might be able to find parking on the street. It's definitely worth finding a spot to eat here. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. The restaurant has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. It's a cute spot to eat. We didn't have lunch there, but their lunch menu looked amazing and if it's as good as their breakfast, it's worth a visit.

Their egg basket without meat is one of my absolute favorites, so I'll definitely be stopping by again to pick up a couple more while we're still in town! This is definitely my favorite bakery in Newport.
