Charming little place. We stopped for the night on our way south. Darien is just off route 95. There is a little old town along the water. This cafe is on that little street. The cafe employees were friendly and checked in for refills on coffee several times. The scones were very tasty. Both were fairly heavy and I enjoyed them. read more

Super cute cafe in Darien, not far from the river and other places downtown. I ordered a mocktail and the barista was so sweet, she tried her hardest to make it look like a firecracker pop, but the white layer wouldn't show. She tried to make me another and it didn't work. I love the effort though! Lovely staff and a cute place to stop by. I got some work done while waiting for my drink. read more

Adorable mom and pop place with awesome coffees and food The place is clean and the staff is personable. Many locals come in for the food and coffees. Definitely a costal vibe read more

On multiple occasions, the staff has made it clear. It's more about them than the customer.. And they continuously advertise for a new staff. And in my own experience, I found it too much trouble to figure out what they've got when they've got it.. If it were my business, I would offer what's on the menu during business hours and I would either be open or closed but these people like being half opened and half closed it just all depends on what's convenient for the staff. Don't go in at 30 minutes before closing and expect to get anything or find a chair to sit in that hasn't already been turned upside down . I've given up trying to buy food from them.. it must be under a new ownership read more

My husband and I stopped in for coffee and enjoyed it so much. They had a wide range of specialty coffees. I had the blueberry muffin coffee (half sweet) and my husband had a cold latte with coconut sweet cream. We didn't eat there but it looked like it had a nice choice of muffins and scones for breakfast and some sandwiches for lunch. This cozy shop was set in the historic Downtown close to the river. read more

Nice enough people. Terrible food. Not worth the drive off of I95. we thought it was more than a coffee/tea cafe but it is barely more than that. We don't understand the good reviews. They misled us to give it a try. Our mistake. Also nice enough inside. it could be so much more. They looked to have a fairly well equipped kitchen. read more

This place has the best cold brew I've had. It's the perfect balance of strength and it was served pleasantly! Keep up the good work! Y'all are better than Starbucks! read more

Now that I've discovered it, I'll be eating there often!!! read more

Stopped in here after going to Fort King George, and got a Frozen Caramel Latte with 2 espresso shots instead of one. I'm a Starbucks man, even worked there for a while, but this drink was EVEN BETTER THAN STARBUCKS! You could taste the freshness and the roasted flavor of the coffee/espresso. It's been two days and I'm still craving another one. I'm going to have to go back and buy a back of their coffee bc it was so good! Also, the young lady who was the barista was very friendly! read more

The plain bagel with lox I ordered came with plenty of lox, but way too much cream cheese for my taste. I just removed the extra. I would have preferred other choices for the bagel rather than just plain, but it was good. The service was good as my order came quickly, but I was one of two people for an early morning breakfast. I will go again to try other food offerings. read more
