Wow - this may have just become my favorite coffee! I ordered the Beach Bum - a summer seasonal latte with coconut, hazelnut and vanilla as an iced coffee and it was absolutely delicious. It earned a permanent spot in my cup holder for the drive home and I was already thinking about my next visit before I got there. The shop itself is cute and welcoming. I even had the chance to watch Scott Groome painting a new mural outside and it's going to look fantastic. The staff were friendly, patient and happy to answer my questions, which made the visit even better. My only complaint is that the menu changes a little too quickly. There were drinks I wanted to come back and try that were already gone! That's probably just another reason I'll have to keep stopping by. I'll definitely be back soon to finally get my own latte bucket!

Got the Apple Pie Chai. Would never recommend to anyone. Basically just sugar in a cup. I did make…read moreit a "dirty chai" and the barista didn't even brew new shots of espresso... The cold foam or whip is from a box, not homemade. No homemade syrups, (syrup brand escapes me) so the beverage is just full of sugar and no real ingredients. Charging $10 is CRAZY.

I hesitate to recommend this place because the customer area is so unclean. I don't mean untidy --…read moreit actually was fairly tidy with napkins, etc. straightened and in their places. But the entire floor and the walls along the bottom were filthy. I ordered my food and the two women behind the counter were very friendly and helpful. The food tasted delicious, as we ate it on our car ride home. But the grime on the floor was very bad. Have you used a public restroom lately? It's definitely as bad as one in a busy shopping area. If the customer area looks like this, what does the kitchen look like?

Great food, even better coffee but ever since they moved locations the workers are just apathetic…read more took forever to come over and take my order even though no one's here and there's about 8 workers. Literally said "what do you want?" And then "what else" after everything I said. I've been going here 20ish years and they just don't care anymore. They know you're coming, they got you hooked on their coffee, thy don't need to smile or care about you at all anymore

I'm not sure if they can no longer take DoorDash orders, but if that's the case they need to get their restaurant taken off the app. After a store cancels an order you have to wait a certain amount of days for DoorDash to refund the money. Which kind of sucks!

I love how they do double egg automatically, making for a considerably more filling sandwich. Their lunch wraps are also massive - they really pack the filing in there! I'm also a huge fan of a few of their iced lattes. Super delicious! The only real gripe I have with them is that every time I go, I feel like I'm ruining their day. I can count on one hand the number of smiles I've seen in my 20+ visits. It's more of a "what do you want" atmosphere. It's really a shame. They also get VERY backed up with food, so be prepared for a long wait. Despite these flaws - and an unfortunate 50 cent charge for card purchases under $10 - Coffee Connection remains a place I enjoy grabbing breakfast items from.

I will be back to try other items and I definitely will try their coffee. Prices are reasonable. This is a place worth keeping around. Give them your support.

Personally, I like this Starbucks location. I almost always order through the app and then come…read morepick it up, usually about 5-7 minutes after I place the order, and my drink is normally ready when I get there, even when they're pretty busy. The staff always greets you when you walk in and they're consistently friendly. The only downfall I've noticed with ordering ahead is when I get something with cold foam. Sometimes the foam melts down by the time I get there, so it makes the drink look like it wasn't filled all the way. If I ask them to add more, I sometimes get a weird look, which is a little awkward. Other than that, it's Starbucks, so you pretty much know what you're getting. They fill the cups with ice, and unless you ask for less ice, you're obviously going to get less actual drink. That's pretty standard at any Starbucks. Overall, I've had a good experience at this location and will continue coming here.

When I walked on I was immediately greeted. As I stood at the counter at least 4 people let me know help would be right with me.

I also walked out with a cheese Danish which you can never go wrong with. Overall, just pleased with their customer service!

First, I would like to say thank you to the cook and owner of diner for making such a delicious…read morebreakfast for me and my wife. I also want to thank her daughter who's the waiter there for recommending the corned beef hash and the blueberry pancakes that were absolutely delicious. The food was made with so much love and the coffee was freshly brewed. Everything was made to order as a diner should be and it was super quick and did I mention the price? We are in 2026 and we got hungryman breakfast that came with eggs, bacon, home fries and pancakes. We also got plain crepes, a coffee, orange juice, a side of ham, and a side of corned beef hash for all under 41 bucks. I am so happy we decided to give this place a try today as we've lived here for about 3 months and always walk by it and I've always said I wanted to try it. Finally. We did and I think we're going to be the weekend regulars from now on. And if this next phrase doesn't convince you to try this place, I don't know what will. THEY TAKE CRISPY EDGES INTO CONSIDERATION FOR PANCAKES. You know what I'm talking about ‍ This is definitely a cute date place or even if you just want to take your friends out to eat or trying to impress your parents on a good diner this is the place. You can tell they are very good even before you get the food as there are locals who show up there and it's all about laughter and good times inside. You got the old school bar stools where people can eat breakfast at the bar. You have the booths and you have some tables by the front door that are cozy. The whole place is just a great vibe matches the great food! So let's cut to the chase here about the food! I ordered the hungry man special as I mentioned above. Eggs, bacon, home fries and blueberry pancakes. I rate my whole plate and 11 out of 10. It was absolutely delicious. I also ordered a side of ham that was the star of the show for me. And it made it taste even better when the waiter told me they cut it straight off the bone. I've never had ham straight off the bone so that was pretty cool haha my coffee was actually really good. Also. I'm not sure what kind they brew but it must be straight from the coffee bean trees because my goodness that was delicious. My wife ordered plain crepes and an order of corned beef hash. Originally she only ordered the plain crepes but then we were told that the corned beef hash was homemade and we were like, we definitely have to try this! So we ordered it but I forgot to take a picture but let me just say she was very happy eating them. The plain crepes were exactly what she wanted as she felt like pancakes would be too heavy for her early in the morning. She said it was sweet and delicious. Also said the corned beef hash was one of the best ones she's ever had. Overall I feel like I could just keep going on about how amazing this place is and how I wish it was the next day already so I could show up and eat breakfast again hahaha thank you guys so much for the great breakfast and hospitality! We will definitely be back! -Kass & Wawa

When trying out a new restaurant, we have little to no expectations but we go with an empty stomach & open mind. I had to look up Manville in Google maps - it's half way between Cumberland & Woonsocket. The restaurant is an unassuming storefront on a mostly residential street. We walked in & were greeted warmly. The restaurant was hopping on a late Saturday morning, so we took the two open seats at the counter. Your Mother's Favorite is truly a family affair. Dad is in the kitchen with an uncle & a son, mom is running the front of house with another son & some other relatives. We learned that this restaurant is an offshoot of their Sunnyside on the Street food truck. They offered any 1/2 lb brisket/chuck blend burger on a brioche bun for the RI Food Fights coupons. Upon recommendation of the son who was serving us at the counter, I went with their best seller: The Mother In Law - caramelized onions, Gruyere cheese, house made sauce. It was SOOOO good! The burger was perfectly cooked with a ton of delicious caramelized onions & ooey gooey melted cheese holding it all together. Hubby opted for The Hot Mom - pepper jack cheese, red onion & house-made mango habanero sauce. He will order anything that will give his taste buds a kick... & this definitely kicked! For me, the sauce was too hot. For hubby, it was definitely HOT but he couldn't get enough! I've never seen a man eat a burger that fast! LOL Hubby was so excited about the mango habanero sauce that the dad/owner came out of the kitchen to discuss creating it. He also provided us with a small container to bring home to enjoy & shared the recipe. I was in the mood for something a little sweet & ordered one slice of the French toast. It was delicious. They also do a deep fried French toast which is something I will order the next time. We got into a nice conversation with the table next to the counter. The couple were fans of the family's original food truck & are repeat customers of Your Mother's Favorite. They were also fans of RI Food Fights - especially the January #LordOfTheWings. We concur! We ogled the other delicious breakfast dishes being delivered to customers. Hubby wants to try both the Huevos Rancheros & the Biscuits with Gravy. Their pancakes are supposed to be out of this world but I will be hard pressed not to order The Mother In Law again! Even though it was very busy, the family made time to chat with us & answer questions about the restaurant & menu. We loved everything about Your Mother's Favorite & can't wait for a return visit!

For $12 I thought the portion was generous and it was loaded with a bunch of toppings.
