    Cozy seating with a few guitars on the ground you can strum if you dare.
    Mary K.

    Very unassuming from the outside but this place packs a punch! We were looking for a coffee spot before lunch and was pleasantly surprised to have found The Nook! Street parking only - we went on a Tuesday morning so there wasn't as much foot traffic when we got there, but it was a steady flow the entire time. We were warmly welcomed by the staff, I was in between a nitro cold brew and the local buzz, we were offered a sample to help make our choices! Local buzz was a bit too sweet for me so they suggested a half and half (half cold brew and half local buzz!) - what a great choice! The linguica roll was staring at me so I ordered one even thought we were going to have lunch soon - I didn't regret one bite! It was chock full of linguica and was so tasty!! I'd go back for that alone! The place is a bit small but cozy and has some nostalgic video games you can play. They have a nice guitar collection on the walls to admire - look don't touch! But they have a few acoustics you can strum if you dare. We were told they now make pizzas as well! We can't wait to go back!!! Great spot for a coffee and a bite if you're in the area! There are few tables outside for outdoor seating as well.

    I love a good chippy as much as the next gal, but this coffee shop is hands down the BEST in the area! I always make a point to stop by when I visit Fairhaven, and I'm never disappointed. The service is lovely, menu creative, and decore nostalgic and fun. Think gaming cafe meets small town coffee shop. The staff are friendly and know their regulars by name and order. They have good pizza too, so it makes a great stop for lunch or an early dinner. Add this one to your list and be sure to leave enough time to play a few rounds of classic Mario, arcade Pac-Man, and others. When you're ready to leave take your coffee and walk around the picturesque New England town, strolling down to the wharf, nearby Millicent library, or down to fort phoenix overlook. Incredible venue in a great location.

    Unbelievable experience. We hail from Brooklyn which is one of the Mecca's of coffee and Yelp led us to this gem. The owner has a real appreciation for coffee and it's origins. Come prepared to walk away with one of the best coffee/espresso drinks you can find, because I certainly did. The owner expertly blends different types of coffees with their proper pairings. For example, we were recommended dark 80% ghiradelli for the nitro coffee since to bring out its mocha flavors. This shop uses different grind methods to ensure the integrity of the bean. There is a drink that uses a cold press method which was wonderful. It's certainly an experience I would recommend and if you love close by you have the luxury to call yourself a regular.

    Wait... the Nook makes pizzas?? When did this start happening. Been there a few times and never knew they made pizzas. Is it legit like a pizzeria type pizza or like a subway sub shop meh pizza?

    Well, I am slightly biased. We make a bar pie "style" Pizza. 12 inch pie. Laced crust... I would say "give it a shot". Some people have said it's the best around. But coming from me doesn't mean very much. Lol

    Oh, this is it! Early Sunday morning folks buy malassadas by the dozen in big brown paper bags:…read moresugar or sugar & cinnamon. Except for Hawaii, where malassadas (fried dough) are covered with fresh tropical fruit, Goularts is the best I've ever had. And this is a town where folks are loyal to bakeries that have been making them for families for decades. Customers also pick up some 'pops' or 'papo secos' a dry roll for sandwiches or with dinner, and maybe say a few words in Portuguese. But I also came for nata, the egg custard tarts beloved in Brazil, Macau, Jakarta, and Goa, known as pastel de nata. And they did not disappoint, having both the traditional natas with flaky pastry & brûlée tops and at least half a dozen other types including Nutella, caramel, chocolate, passion fruit and more. Heaven! Service was quick and helpful. The ambiance is cute corner bakery catering to parents who bring home breakfast treats for their kids and family. And there's plenty of parking across the street next to the pretty park, which could be a great place to enjoy a fresh baked treat. Enjoy!

    After dropping my wife off at the Amtrak Station in Providence this morning (10-12-250 I had…read moredecided to explore Restaurante y Tortilleria Guatemalteco (1282 Acushnet Ave.) in New Bedford--to pick up food for lunch and dinner. My single sentence review "A culinary wonderland of home-style Guatemalan dishes, in a large, pristine setting, which also contains a grocery, bakery, and lots of Latin American snacks, offered at extremely reasonable prices." Everyone else is invited to continue reading. The heavy, double doors leading into Guatemalteco could use a make-over, but inside the restaurant is well-lit, spacious and clean, the fragrances from two large steam tables filled with dishes and the kitchen waft throughout the space, as did the sounds of many individuals and families enjoying a late morning meal (as I arrived at about 11:20 am). I took a quick look around and then walked back to the main steam table and asked if the young man who was one of the servers could tell me what the choices were. There is no written menu. This is a family-run place, making home-style Guatemalan dishes for locals and families. He took the time to briefly identify all the dishes and then I ordered--two of the large Guatemalan pork tamales, a plate with braised pigs feet on one side and pork rib stew in a spicy red chili sauce on the other with a huge portion of Guatemalan rice, and a fried pork chop. I asked if they had salsa, he said "yes" and asked if I wanted "mild or hot." "Hot please." He smiled and brought me back three containers of their home-made habanero sauce. Since there is no menu (I asked) and since I couldn't see anything which listed the prices of dishes I was stunned when for all this food he said "$23." Amazing. For all the time he took explaining everything to me I gave him $30, smiled, said "gracias," and was on my way. Incredibly, everything was still hot enough to eat when I made the 35 minute drive home to the Cape. I decided to try the tamale, the salsa, and a Guatemalan "Lenguas" roll (similar to the rolls in Mexican cuisine used to make tortas--called a Telera) which I had purchased at Sara Bakery and Mini Market which is next door to Guatemalteco. [I popped into the Sara Bakery and thought I ordered four of these freshly baked, long rolls. I said "four" and held up four fingers. It's times like this I wish I spoke Spanish. The server filled up a bag with 12 freshly baked rolls. I asked how much? She said four and she held up four fingers . . . four dollars for 12 freshly baked rolls, talk about a bargain! The Sara Bakery has a wide assortment of other Pan Dulce, similar to what you might find in a Mexican Panaderia; so a bonus find for me since we have missed having access to a bona fide Panaderia since moving here from California.] A Guatemalan tamale is wrapped in banana leaf (not corn hush) and compared to a Mexican tamale it is much lighter and filled with chopped potato, onions, peppers, and large pieces of pork. It was fabulous, especially with the habanero salsa--a mixture of sweet and spicy. The server at Guatemalteco, once seeing the large bag of rolls I was holding from Sara's, recommended that I eat one with the tamale and he was right. Pieces of bread helped capture the delicious chili mixture which was on the outside and inside of the tamale. Wow, what a culinary treat. After I finished the tamale and Lenguas, I did sample everything else while still hot--though I will reheat everything for dinner. The pigs feet stew is absolutely unctuous, tender and lip-smacking good. The pork ribs in red chili sauce, which includes the rib bones to give the stew flavor, was luscious and mildly spicy (maybe very spicy for someone else). The meat itself was super tender. The Guatemalan rice was a surprise, it seemed to be a medium or short grain rice, compared to Mexican red rice which is made with long grain rice. As a result it was stickier than I expected and it was filled with delicious bits of fine chopped vegetables. Not quite like anything I've had before in a Latin dish. The pork chop, which I also sampled, had lots of flavor inside and out--I suspect it was brined before being fried. Just a wonderful treat. Guatemalteco is open Mon-Sat 5 am - 9:30 pm and on Sunday from 7 am - 9 pm. Though my knowledge of Guatemalan food is wanting (I feel more capable with Mexican regional cuisines, Salvadorean, and Colombian cuisines), I thought the tastes of what I order to be on point and an authentic representation of home-style cooking. Visitation tip: There is lots of metered parking on Acushnet, so bring quarters. There is parking on the side streets (which is what I did today) and that's not metered. Go and enjoy something different, there's lots of tastes to explore here..

We had the Vanilla Bean cake and Reverse pillow cookies and they taste as good as they look on the website. If you're looking for delicious homemade style cakes and cookies look no further. This is it. Longer review: My wife and I flew into Boston two weeks ago to celebrate our first year anniversary. We were staying out on the beach in Dartmouth and as part of the celebration I wanted to order a nice cake for the occasion. Being relatively new to the area I was not sure where to turn. And to complicate matters, we had gone vegan a few months prior. Enter Underscores Baked Goods satisfying the check-list. Do they have delicious looking cakes/cookies on the website? Check. Are all baked goods vegan? Check. Is their customer service prompt, professional and friendly? My questions regarding orders were replied back with 2 separate emails the following morning. Check. Check. Ready to order I called on Monday and spoke to Jennifer, the same person who I had been corresponding with. I told her the occasion and said that I was hoping to have the cake delivered by Friday since my wife's family was going to meet us that weekend. Normally there is a 1 week lead time, but she said she would try to get the cake delivered by Saturday. Saturday rolls around and at noon my mother-in-law looks outside and says she thinks the person from the bakery is here. I go outside and it is Jennifer. She is personally delivering the cake inside a wonderful gift bag WITH an anniversary card AND she's included 12 complimentary cookies ("one to commemorate each month of our marriage"). It is beyond thoughtful. These are the types of moments that Yelp, business reviews and word-of-mouth was made for. The cake and cookies were very good (moist, soft and unbelievably vegan) but it was Jennifer's extra care and effort that took what was a special trip and occasion and made it that much more memorable for us. Frankly, thinking back on it, I'm still blown away that this type of care exists. From my wife and our family, thank you very much to Jennifer + Underscores Bakery!

It's surprising too because they're entirely allergen friendly and there's not a lot of options for that out there, at least ones that taste any good.
