Everything was great. The staff were patient. It is a cute little spot with chill vibe. We'll definitely return to experience outdoor seating in warm weather. Side note: For those who prefer coconut milk as a dairy alternative, it's worth noting that while it's an option on their DoorDash menu, it's not something they offer. I wish they do add it as an option. Would love to explore all their lattes.

#39 in my NEW ENGLAND & NY COFFEE SHOP SERIES…read more A cute, lovely, local, coffee shop in the main area of Southington! There was plenty of seating for folks to study and chat along with good drinks and pastries to choose from. They always have speciality coffee drinks for the season so I decided to try one of them! A mix of white and milk chocolate latte, super good and not too sweet. My partner got a caramel latte which was equally good. What I enjoyed most were the $1 leftover pastries that they sell from the day before. Such a good steal and the pastries are still fresh!

Both coffees cost a total of $10 and change plus a 20% tip. So I'm thinking it was $13. A little pricey, but all was good. I'm just not a big fan of this cashing out with the tip percentage staring you straight in the face on the checkout screen. The interior of the building was clean and welcoming. I didn't like sitting in the booth style seating across a table from my friend who was seated in a regular chair and seemed to be sitting way lower than me. It was a little wonky. The barista was personable, not overly friendly, but OK. So all in all, it's a nice place for coffee. There is no drive-through, and they do take Apple Pay. Clean restrooms and easy parking

I ordered the guava and cheese croissant and the Final Girl. The croissant was delicious and reminded me of a Danish. The Final Girl, which was a cucumber and mint limeade was just okay. The flavor was pretty mild, while I would have preferred a stronger punch, but it was good nonetheless.

When you walk in, it's really a nice break from reality with all of the whimsical, antique, speakeasy feel. You can sip on tea and coffee and walk around the shop. Nice size biscotti went well with their tea. I had the blueberry muffin also. My friend and I had two cups of tea that were great! Staff is super nice and we could have spent more than 2 hrs in there just relaxing and catching up. I look forward to going back there. It's a nice intimate space to sit alone or a couple of friends.

They have a huge menu of specialty coffees, hot chocolates and teas. Additionally, they also offer special cocktails. My friend arrived first she got Kevin's Not Here hot chocolate, this is a nod to Kevin from Home Alone. I arrived shortly after, I tried to order my coffee for a while. While they were busy, I felt like I was purposefully being ignored, no matter how many times I pointed to the menu and said "excuse me?". I was sitting right at the front where most of the commotion was. My friend had to raise her hand all the way up, like we had something to say in school. I guess that's the way to get their attention. I eventually got the Cannoli Cold Brew. Both of our drinks were very good. Kevin's Not Here is a white mocha base with eggnog and gingerbread syrup. This was very sweet, I could for sure taste the gingerbread. The Cannoli Cold Brew was another great choice, it tasted like what it sounds, it wasn't overly sweet. They offer a variety of fun flights at Yellow King, from coffee, to hot chocolate to cocktails.

It's laid-back but still lively, with dart boards and games that make it easy to settle in and stay awhile. It's the kind of place where you can actually relax, laugh, and not feel rushed. They also have a bunch of different events which they lost in the walls and change each week. One of my favorite things about it is the flexibility with food. You can bring your own, which already makes it a win, but they also take have QR codes you can scan and have food delivered right to your table from nearby restaurants. It's such a seamless setup and honestly makes the whole experience even better. All around, this spot nails the balance between great drinks and a genuinely fun atmosphere. Perfect for a casual night out, meeting up with friends, or just switching up your usual brewery routine. Definitely a go-to. Ive been a few times and I'll definitely be going back.
