My husband & I came in on a bitter cold afternoon. I still opted for a large butterscotch latte. My husband went with his usual and more aligned with the weather a large hot coffee. Next to the register there were some really delicious looking desserts. I went with the apple pie cake. Our order was rung up at the register then brought to our table. We took w seat in the cute cafe. I really enjoyed my butterscotch latte. It was smooth, creamy but not overly s sweet. My husband's black coffee was piping hot which gave us some time for a card game. Finally the apple pie cake. It tasted healthy but with good I want to go back and try a sandwich. It looks like they offer some unique and delicious options. read more

Adorable coffee shop! The sandwiches are amazing! Adult grilled cheese. I enjoyed a sandwich with burrata, prosciutto, and pesto on sourdough. Everything was fresh and served on cute china plates. The staff were friendly and the service was timely. read more

Terra Cafe - Burrata Prosciutto Pesto Sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Monroe, Connecticut

I love stopping here before work as I don't have to wait around for too long to get coffee and food. The pastries, power balls, and cakes are all spectacular. So many options for food and all the ingredients are very clean. read more

Really good food - really slow service. I've been to Terra Cafe several times and each time the service has declined. Today was the worst - paid for food and had to wait almost 10 minutes for them to put 6 cookies and 2 brownies into a box. They weren't that busy either - the servers just prioritized other orders before our paid order. Will definitely not be in a hurry to go back. It's a shame because the food is delicious but not worth the hassle or aggravation. read more

My favorite cafe in Connecticut! I have been coming here since it opened and the food and service has always been amazing. The food is healthy and filling- very satisfying. The coffee is always perfect as well (the brown sugar latte is my go to). The vibe of the cafe itself is so warm and cozy as well. Definitely try Terra! read more

Amazing food and great staff. Will definitely be back. Turkey pesto sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I've had and I'm not typically a turkey or multigrain bread fan. read more

This is such a cute small cafe. I came here with my husband for a quick breakfast and coffee. He stuck with a regular hot coffee, and I got an Iced Pistachio Latte with Oat Milk. I liked that my latte tasted healthier than most coffee shops - real pistachios were on top and I didn't taste any crazy sugary syrup. I can't remember what breakfast sandwich my husband got, but he liked it. I ordered the Avolcano Avocado Toast - very good, and compared to other places, it was reasonably priced. Next time we are in the area, I would love to try something else! read more

First time trying this sweet spot today for lunch. Had the Holy Frijole (bean burger) - delicious! Huge burger topped with avocado, vegan Mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, sprinkle of cabbage, served on their homemade multi grain bun. Really really good! SO wanted to try the much-lauded carrot cake muffins but it was late in the afternoon and they were sold out. I nabbed a thick slice of banana bread for brekkie tomorrow! *Update: Banana bread was da bomb! Moist, light & flavorful. Perfection!! *Update 2: Had the Pataca avocado toast for lunch today! Tuna from the Azores served on an abundant layer of beautifully arranged ripe avocado, topped with mildly spicy peppers and sprouts all resting on house baked multi-grain toast. At first glance it appeared to be open-faced, but to my delight there was a second piece of toast under the bottom layer so I made a sandwich! I love sandwiches, and this one did not disappoint. read more

I have to say - I have done research online for the best breakfast in the area, and I found Terra cafe. I'm salivating just from looking at all the pictures and menus and the looks of the carrot muffins, tofu scramble and everything else. Thank you for pouring so much love into the design of your website and making pictures of every menu item. This is wonderful. We will be there this weekend no matter the drive time. read more

Very nice, if I could give it a 4.5 I would. The açaí bowls were very good, definitely had a nice home made vibe and taste. Also very healthy without the fake stuff added. The sandwiches were also very good. The weird part of the meal is the drink selection. They have a lot of good and unusual options, but none of the standards. It was nice to have a unique selection, but it would also be nice to have a Diet Coke in there or something. The prices were average for a private coffeehouse. It's more expensive than fast food, but cheaper than a sit down restaurant. The people and service was great. Very fast and accommodating. Overall great experience! read more

Loved this little cafe! Delicious cappuccino in a glass cup! I forget the name of the dessert but it was sliced fresh not wrapped! Nice atmosphere too! read more

I am loathed to rate this place because, selfishly, I do not want you to find it. This little gem... Great atmosphere inside. Welcoming, with inclusivity postings. An excellent menu filled with tasty, healthy offerings, handwritten in chalk. Fantastic daily specials and multiple coffee and chai and health drink options to choose from. Fresh pastries up front if you so choose. Thus far, I have tasted a few of the pastries, A pesto-chicken sandwich (scrumptious and fresh), and I normally have the Chai. My girfriend had the oatmeal which had a healthy portion of fresh fruit and was delicious. The place is very small with only a few tables, so you have to stake your claim pretty early. Additionally, the hours are limited with no Sundays on the menu. A fantastic find. read more

Wow!! It is healthy, it is tasty and the lady was so nice. I had an excellent cauliflower soup of the day and avocado toast. I will definitely come back, and I am recommending!! read more

This cute little coffee shop has become one of our regular places to visit. The staff is very friendly, their spinach and egg sandwich and the pistachio coffee are fantastic and the desserts are varied, interesting and delicious: Always exciting to see what new concoctions they have. read more

Not sure if I caught them on a bad day or not, but was very disappointed based on the fantastic reviews. I ordered the turkey bacon egg and cheese and asked to ensure the egg and bacon were well done (this is not a preference, but a requirement for my current medical state) - the egg was cooked through but the turkey bacon was barely warmed so I had to remove it from the sandwich. It was also a very small sandwich for $7+ and after taking the bacon off I was left hungry. I also ordered a golden latte, which literally tasted like warm almond milk. Not even a hint of the honey, cinnamon, ginger or turmeric. The latte was also quite expensive - $15 total for a breakfast I didn't really enjoy. Sadly, I probably won't return. read more

Terra cafe is my favorite local coffee shop that has countless offerings to make your mouth water. My favorite is the overnight oats. A close second would be any of their unique açaí bowls. They also have an incredible tofu and black bean burrito. It keeps me full all day and is so flavorful you would never know there were no eggs. Terra always has specials on their menu and the staff is always pleasant and welcoming to all. Need local honey? It's my go to! But also you can pick up Portuguese delicacies. Eat at one of their small tables or take it to go. A great place to meet for coffee and just chat. read more

Amazing coffee and side biscuits! The best carrot cake muffins and olive oil cakes.

Cute small shop with great food! I went here to grab lunch one day and got the Buffalo Cauliflower on a gluten free wrap. I normally am not a fan of wraps but I was so hungry. 3 days later I am still thinking of this wrap! I can not wait to go back. Everyone working there is so friendly! Definitely coming back soon! read more

Debra the owner is meticulously efficient in the wonderful freshness and bursting flavor of all her creations. We drive from Stamford all the time to savor her incredible creations... Bravo!!!! read more

Nice place for breakfast if you're into the vegan, gluten free thing or even a regular bacon, egg & cheese, which is what I ordered. The BEC was really good on a multigrain roll, but it was small and for the price I wasn't getting a second. Gluten free muffins were really good too and I don't eat gluten free usually. Overall, it's really good, but pricey. read more

After dozens of visits to Terra Cafe, I still love it! They make an amazing DF and GF Chicken Chipotle sandwich that is so good!! All the drinks and bakery items have always been excellent- The staff is informed about allergens and can always help-always very nice, space is always clean and charming read more

The ambience is very warm and inviting, the service is friendly and attentive, the menu options are unique and interesting, and the food is fresh and delicious!

Monroe's Best Healthy Option Terra Cafe is everything it claims to be. And more!! There are healthy, vegan, gluten free options and something for everyone at this high end cafe. Here's what I've tried: Turkey sandwich Corsica salad Anti-inflammatory smoothie All were fabulous. Filling, savory, absolutely delicious. I felt so good after eating there!! Everything was so nicely prepared. The call-ahead/curbside ordering was flawless. I really appreciated their extra care. Even my teenager loved the food and was very satisfied and energized. Woohoo! My only wish is that they were open for dinner or at least take-out dinner pick up. I love to see a business like this thriving in our town. It's a true gem. read more

The people are super nice and I have to believe the food is very healthy, however it is an expensive meal. I believe my husband and I spent close to $30 and we were hungry afterward. I want the local business to succeed, and the food is good, I just can't afford to go often. read more

Always good food, fast and much healthier than other options in the area. So many gluten free options.

Just amazing! One of the only organic cafes in the entire area. The baked goods are amazing!!

What a disappointment!! Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing but the mushroom wrap had barely any mushrooms and was the smallest portion I've ever seen for $11 plus an additional $3 for a gluten free wrap.. $3 for a wrap?? Also not even a washroom for customers can wash hands before eating?? I asked if there was anyway I could wash my hands and the girls didn't even have the decency to come back and say yes or no?!? I will never go back and will advise my friends and family it's not worth the trip. There are much better portioned and friendlier places in Newtown! read more

Really love this place. We've been going for a while now. We've had all the vegan options and they're all great. Our favorite is the cauliflower wrap HOWEVER it has been hit or miss for a while now. In the beginning it was always made perfect but now when we get it , it is sometimes so unbearably spicy that it's almost inedible. We hope they can go back to a much more subtle spice level! read more

Have been searching Fairfield for a fantastic coffee shop and decided to expand my search outside of town and have been hooked on Terra Cafe in Monroe ever since. Sure I drive 20 minutes for coffee but this place is worth it especially if you take the winding country roads (route 136 to 59 to Judd Street). Homemade healthy vegan and non vegan food options with authentic coffee made with only the type of artistry and love that a small neighborhood NYC coffee bar holds. Truly one of the best coffee shops with good healthy food, homemade desserts and a cool vibe. Try the olive oil cake! read more

Delicious, fresh products. Anything you order will be satisfying!! Love their soups and açaí bowls. Beautiful and friendly staff. Fun seating options too! We love all the Portugal and Azores products they sell too! read more

I didn't know this place existed until a colleague suggested grabbing lunch there (It's easy to miss in the little strip mall). I had a delicious wrap and their carrot cake muffins were fabulous.

I used to love coming here regardless of the inedible avocado toast. Today was a bust, a white woman cut in front of me and when we said something to her she started being sarcastic and condescending and racist. Instead of the owner saying something she stood there and lectured us to be understanding. Instead of making sure we were ok she stood as a bystander to a racist interaction in her own store read more
