After a lovely walk in the woods, we stopped by for lunch. The menu has something for everyone. It was hard to make a choice cause everything looks delicious. Service is friendly and fast - the vibe inside is welcoming, displaying local artwork. We ordered the daily soup special and salad, pesto panini, a cinnamon roll, breakfast burrito, and two smoothies. I cannot wait to go back! Definitely try it out for yourself, you won't be disappointed! read more

Glad I gave Maia Papaya a try but honestly wasn't that impressed. Staff was kinda friendly maybe they needed a cup of Joe themselves. Cute & cozy atmosphere. On the morning I went they must have just opened things took longer then expected. Ordered a couple of coffees, pastries and a breakfast burrito to go. The pastries and coffees came out first but the burrito took a little time. The off timing bothered me, they should have made the coffee after the burrito was made. Anyway, the burrito was terrible it shouldn't be called a breakfast burrito; it should be called a black bean burrito because that's all I tasted. As for the pastries all I can say is eh. The looked better then tasted. I guess I was just expecting something better because of the reviews. The coffees besides being luke warm was okay. Unfortunately the quality didn't validate the cost. read more

I stopped in here while visiting a friend who lives nearby. The staff here was extremely friendly and I was so impressed with their vegan options! I got a black sesame boba iced latte and a breakfast wrap with tofu. The wrap was pretty basic but was so well seasoned and filling! I am glad I stopped in and will definitely be back the next time I'm in the area! read more

So fun and excellent food & drinks! We started coming here because no hotels manage to have decent coffee and have kept coming back because not only is their coffee great, but their food is delicious. We often get things to take home with us as well as to eat there. Quintessential indie coffeehouse vibes and staff. We love it! read more

Food was amazing! Loved the vegan options and one of the best lattes I've ever had anywhere, bar none!

Great grab and go lunch spot for healthier options. Lots of Vegetarian options! I got the power bowl (tofu, roasted sweet potato, quinoa, sunflower seeds etc) which was hearty and delicious. They also have coffee and other items. read more

What a pleasant surprise! Not gonna lie I had low expectations but this was a solid coffee stop. Nice menu options. I got an iced mocha and my husband and iced honey vanilla latte. Both were extremely smooth and flavorful. You could even taste the honey in my husband's drink, which basically never happens haha. Cute shop with wonderful welcoming baristas too. read more

My husband and I were visiting in the area and decided to try Maia Papaya. We enjoyed it so much that we went back on our second day, that rarely happens because my husband likes to try as many local coffee places as he can when we vacation. The staff are friendly, the prices good, and the selection is fantastic, including the sugar free coffee syrup choices-they have the most options of any coffee place I've been to in the last year. I highly recommend you check this place out. There is limited seating. read more

Good coffee and good pastries. Can be daunting to get a cup of Joe behind the fancy drinks being made. But a nice local owned business, quality always good. read more

Great latte and blueberry scone. Quality espresso coffee like you expect to find in a big city.

I hadn't visited the Maia Papaya in a few years but still follow them on Facebook and have been blown away by their fancy coffees for the weekend so much so that when we were nearby (ish) in North Conway I kind of insisted we take a longer drive to visit. I was very disappointed with the service. I guess the fancy coffees are only on Fridays which is a bummer. Undaunted, I asked the woman who flavors they had and she was very dismissive. Recited about 15 in a few seconds and then said she could go on and on. Well, okay - I mean it's not up anywhere in the store and there's no way to know so why wouldn't you list them all for a customer? We ended up getting some sort of cookie batter flavoring for the cold brew (which was met with a bit of derision when I asked what they had for cool cold brews - again, it's the weekend and every Friday you post about your fancy cold brew so why is it a shock when a customer asks??). It was way too syrupy and not great. I asked for a malted chocolate latte and got a vanilla malted latte. Close enough, I guess. At least that was fantastic. Since we had gone out of our way we decided to try some bakery items. The strawberry croissant was super dry. I wouldn't order that again. The "cereal sundae" was pretty good. Lovely bananas mixed in with the yogurt and granola. I was also disappointed that none of the cool local art is available anymore. We bought a cool Star Wars themed painting a few years ago. Now they had overpriced prints that really weren't that unique available in a bin. I wonder what happened with that partnership as it was still ongoing as of my last visit a couple of years ago. For the price, quality and poor service I really can't see myself returning as it's a long way from home for me. If local, I'd likely go back more often as the malted vanilla latte was good and they have a lot of interesting flavors. read more

This place was a great Scott. Veggie burger wrap, and breakfast wrap were great. Nice, small bakery with great coffee drinks. So glad we stopped. Very cute inside a great service. read more

Lovely vegetarian and vegan options for the area! We had a hard time finding vegetarian options in the Carroll area until finding the Maia papaya. I had their pesto sandwich and tomato soup- was lovely on a very cold day! My husband had a breakfast burrito and it was FANTASTIC! We appreciated the local art work for sale around the shop. Very nice atmosphere and great customer service. read more

Saw the coffee sign and stopped by while driving from the Northeast Kingdom to North Conway. I picked up a box of pastries for the friend I was visiting and they looked so delish that we stopped by on the way back home for lunch. The smoothie was delicious and fresh, the mozzarella pesto panini mouth-watering good, and the cookies perfectly chewy and moist. I will definitely be back! read more

We stopped by The Maia Papaya on our way to Maine for breakfast (from Vermont), I loved it!! We had a great meal with a jackfruit sandwich, coffee and others. The people working there were nice and friendly, and they had some great choices for vegans and vegetarians. I will definitely go there and recommend it to my vegan/vegetarian friends. read more

When in town my kids always want to stop in for a chia pudding . Love the coffee ( and alternative milk options) and the art on the walls available for purchase. read more

Staying in town for a few weeks and headed here for some morning coffee and breakfast. Got a double iced latte and a breakfast quesadilla. Coffee was very good and the quesadilla was AMAZING. Loosely scrambled eggs with spinach and cheddar on a wheat tortilla. I could eat this everyday! Will be back...tomorrow. :) read more

Being a vegetarian is hard in this country. Running a veg only restaurant is harder. Fortunately, this place has proved that wrong! In the midst of covid-19, seeing so many people ordering from this place is surprising and at the same time relieving. I say this because I do not want them to close down for any reason. They have some of the best breakfast items on the menu, vegetarian and vegan. I tried their breakfast burrito and hands down one of the best I have eaten. So much flavor! Their drinks have so much variety and taste sooooo good. All in all such a cute restaurant in a little town with a cute little patio area to sit out and eat during these crazy times. Definitely coming back here when in this area. read more

Stopped at this place while in the area for a wedding - can't say enough good things! Great coffee, kind staff, solid menu options. Coffee was delish - got the single snickerdoodle, wasn't too sweet at all. Four coffees for $14 was a breath of fresh air from our $6 lattes in LA. Come visit this spot, great coffee spot! read more

Ordered a green torpedo with the pesto option. It was excellent! I am not vegetarian or vegan but it was fantastic! If you're vegan, still a great choice because the pesto is delicious and you wouldn't miss the feta. Great inside space and cute outdoor space too! Great stop on the way to a hike or skiing! We arrived a little after the lunch rush and we had our food quickly. read more

I was driving back from Mount Washington and stopped for a "quick" coffee at this vegetarian restaurant. I waited over 30 minutes for 2 hot chocolates and a Elvis - bread with Nutella PB and sliced bananas. I asked after the long wait and the chef made it clear she was the only one in the kitchen and that of course I needed to wait because she's very busy. I totally understand that, but rather than making me feel bad for asking after a decent wait time perhaps just tell me what the wait time is. Then the cashier got into a conflict with a customer. She apparently had a nut allergy and was waiting for the machine to be cleaned to make her drink. She saw over 15 people get their drinks and her friend had already finished her drink. The cashier got very upset and told her that the wait time was expected and she should've ordered something else instead of complaining. She proceeded to tell her about their lack of employees. This is not the customers problem and she was very patient before this. The food is good here, but it's not good enough to justify the attitude and time spent. read more

Nice place! Wonderful customer base too. You can really tell there's a strong community in this area by how the people treat each other in the cafe. Ordered the vegetarian salad to go with no feta and a veggie burger, aka vegan style. Very well done, and good portion size as well. read more

On the door the hours read Thursday through Monday 8-3. You better get there before 2:30 because they have already turned off the grill and wrapped up the cold cuts. Not sure how people run restaurants this way but it seems to be a thing here in the north country. Not impressed. read more

I absolutely loved this little cafe. My boyfriend and I were visiting Bethlehem for an overnight trip and wandered into here for a late breakfast. The staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable about the menu. I ordered the Bread Pudding French Toast with a Mexican Mocha, and my boyfriend ordered an egg on an Asiago cheese bagel. We were in heaven! I also loved that they featured local art on the walls. It has a very earthy and granola vibe which is right up my alley. I always prioritize going to small businesses and this was such a lovely part of our day! read more

Passed by this place and allow me to say I was visiting from miami and fully vaccinated I didn't see the signs outside saying that takeout only but for some reason this lady was super rude and said there are signs 4-5 signs outside stating that Their cafe was great and the food even better but that lady needs some etiquette training with customers, wow for an establishment to speak to someone that way was wayyyy to rude. read more

Best coffee in town. Veggie options only but worthy the stop. Delightful and delicious options.

Super popular for good reason! Great healthy organic options and willing to accommodate (I'm dairy free, gluten free.) I had an almond milk Laate with sugar free flavoring (delicious!), black bean chili with salad and bf had breakfast sandwich with an Americano and cookie. Local art on the walls, big coffee selection, free wifi, happy staff (even with a line out the door) and comfy seating. Only two seaters here and pretty tiny so not ideal for groups unless in the outside patio. Cons: no gluten free bread options, VERY busy (longish waits.) Edit: came back for breakfast and it took 45 mins for 2 egg sandwiches :( read more

The Maia Papaya is great and there are many vegan options. We really enjoyed our sandwiches and the atmosphere is fun with great paintings on the wall. They were able to tell me which items were vegan, though not all were labeled on the chalkboard, so ask. Bonus, the pesto is vegan, which was a great treat. Would not hesitate to visit again if we are in the area! read more

Great spot located in the village of Bethlehem. Love the coffee! I always get the two egg breakfast sandwich - made on the spot when you order and the eggs are cooked right there as you wait. Has nice outdoor seating options. read more
